HOPE 6

[xoder]

So I know I haven't posted since I moved, but I'm not going to post about it yet.

HOPE is fun. Thus far I've:

• Listened to talks on:
• "Hacking the Palate" (food)
• Hacking Sex
• although I'd heard all the stuff before via my own studies as well as TES
• 
• Tor
• although I feel I helped to give this talk instead
• Community radio
• Wireless security and link maintainance
• The current political situation, and how the gov't should spend more money on "Open Source Security"
• Met MC Frontalot (yet again) and promised him that I'd be at his show tonight. You should come too!
• 9 pm at Club Midway at 25 Avenue B.
• Messed with the dumb terminals that someone brought over. Did not manage to get more than one working (and that one worked because it had a ROM chip that the others didn't)
• They were messed up because the ROM images supplied (for PXE boot) were corrupt. But one of them could boot into X, and I was one of the few people borking on it that knew how to xforward.
• Bought 3 T-shirts
• The HOPE 6 shirt
• An MC Frontalot Nerdcore Rising Tour shirt
• A babydoll tee that says "The Internet is a Series of Tubes" with an illustration of a uterus (including ovaries and fallopian tubes).
• Needless to say, that last one's for Erin
• QSO'ed with the special event call sign N6H. I'm going to try to ping them from here when I'm done with my shower.
• Ran into a couple I met at the Pride Parade
  

Any questions? Ask.
