19:49.58 | kivutar | hello everybody, how enjoyable is the free software scene in london? |
19:51.12 | yaMatt | depends where you go :) |
19:51.43 | kivutar | where should I go? :) |
19:52.32 | yaMatt | gllug hasn't had a meet for a little while, should probably do something about that |
19:52.44 | yaMatt | there's also a few Linux communities on MeetUp |
19:53.38 | yaMatt | I thought I had a write-up on gllug.org.uk but apparently not |
19:55.54 | yaMatt | my favourite/most active was https://www.meetup.com/londonlinux/ |
19:56.28 | yaMatt | https://www.meetup.com/Linuxing-In-London/ is a bit more formal and talks |
19:56.33 | yaMatt | london linux is more drinking |
19:58.40 | kivutar | drinking can be nice too, sometimes |
19:59.02 | kivutar | I've been living in france and vietnam, and got a job offer in london |
19:59.17 | kivutar | so I'm checking if I'm going to have fun there or not |
19:59.56 | kivutar | what about the fablabs and the hackerspaces? |
20:08.17 | yaMatt | loads of those |
20:08.26 | yaMatt | again, depends where you move to :) |
20:08.43 | yaMatt | there's London HackSpace in North East London |
20:08.55 | yaMatt | then there's South London Makerspace in South London |
20:09.02 | yaMatt | but there's loads of little ones dotted around |
20:09.43 | yaMatt | you'll definitely have fun, lots to do :) |
20:10.12 | yaMatt | there's like 3 exhibitions on right now I want to go to |
20:13.45 | kivutar | great |
20:14.51 | kivutar | it's a little bit unrelated, but any advice on what part of the city I should look for a flat or shared house? |
20:19.08 | kivutar | I guess I will have to choose a place not too far from the job, but I have no idea yet where they are located |
20:26.34 | yaMatt | very difficult to say, most people I know live either South or East because it's the cheapest |
20:28.46 | yaMatt | but nowhere is cheap :) |
