My favorite conference for #sysadmin types (of any stripe) just put out their CfP for this year's conference.

We'll be in Portland, OR in late October. It's a good conference in a good location.

The carousel of my microwave doesn't turn anymore. I don't have time for this.

Not only is it SRO, there's a line to get in.

I did not expect a panel on Ethics and Politics in Anime to be SRO. I'm impressed. #sakuracon

They just announced the line up for the My Hero Academia panel. The line formed faster than I could blink.

Looking forward to my first-ever #sakuracon starting tomorrow. Not sure what to expect other than 'crowds' and 'long lines'.

based on the email in my ticket system I'd say that at least three people in two small organizations fell for a recent physhing campaign.

In general I'm opposed to capital punishment. However, I make an exception for physhiers, spammers, and crackers.

Every time I type "Whorehouse" (as in, The Best Little) autocorrect changes it to "Whitehouse".

This is far too accurate.

Mamma Mia at Seattle Musical Theatre was a huge success. It was also a blast of a show to do. Sad it's over but it's time to move on to The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, opening in one month. This will be the last show of our 41st season and possibly our last show ever.

Hey, Internet, stop being such monsters! She and all of her colleagues deserve our respect and admiration, Trolls are not worthy of anything but derision and shunning.

Anyone who sees this going to Sakura-Con on 19-21 APR? This will be my first one (I've not been able to go in the past because I've always had a show that weekend).

Tonight begins the last weekend of performances of Mamma Mia at http://seattlemusicaltheatre.org - we have 5 performances left and then we strike the set and it will never be done (this way) again. Theatre is a very ephemeral art.

Tickets have sold very well for this show. I'm hopeful we'll do as well for The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (opening 17 MAY, 2019).

My UW ID card broke this morning. No more RFID, which means no more U-Pass (bus pass). I have a meeting from 10:00 to 12:00 here and then a meeting at 13:00 on campus - for which I need to take the bus.

Guess who gets to drive home and get his paid bus card instead of having lunch today.

@weapxnfriend I dare you...

Damn it, now I need to go to Montreal.

Why, yes, I did order the Labo VR headset the moment I knew Breath of the Wild was going to work with it.

Why do you ask?

Coming soon, to a theatre near me...

Back to the #theatre tonight. Second weekend of Mamma Mia at Seattle Musical Theatre. All four shows opening weekend were very well attended. Hopefully this weekend will do as well. (There are still good seats available this weekend, I'm sure. We close next weekend so if you want to see the show get your tickets soon.)

If you have a GPS device that doesn't get automatic updates you might want to make sure your device's firmware is up to date before 6 APR, 2019. 10 bits really isn't a good number to use for calendar (in this case, week number) storage. https://www.gps-repeaters.com/blog/gps-week-number-rollover-april-6th-2019/
