Hereās another vote for a meetup in Europe.
At least 80% of the point of any meetup/con ever created.
Yeah, and you wouldnāt want to be penetrated in a convention of grinders now, would you?
== Bah Dum Dah ==
Thank you! Iāll be here all week.
If it could be bolted onto the defcon week or so it would fit nicely

have people bring sleeping bags, that kind of thingā¦
Yāall are crazy.
Maybe not this year, I canāt move my holiday from May to an other date.
But next year - give me a date in the and of december 2020 and I can fly next year . Only 3 month would be difficult: July, August (summerholiday for kids - so parents come first and then the other people) and December: no one is allowed to go on holiday.
I will fly from Austria
TromsĆø(Norway) - NY - TromsĆø, is atm at 3500 USD, so as much as Iād like to go i still canāt make the trip
1000 USD for a long weekend/week in an European town would be okay, but just flight to NY at 3500 is to much
BTW, if anyone has a good link to cheap trips, please DM me with links
I think the original idea was Seattle not NY.
Round trip from TOS to SEA is about $750 USD with Scandinavian Airlines⦠At least for me picking random dates in august on Google Flights
Flight costs in/out of the US are also EXTREMELY hard to predict right now, due to gestures vaguely at everything so pricing things out, even with future dates is not likely to reflect reality all that closely
True. You can look at price history as well but yeah atm flights are a bit all over the place. The one I just looked at was showing the $750 flight as $440 USD below the average year round price for that same trip. But itās likely easier to cross that bridge when we get to it.
Iād go. Flights from Atlanta are seemingly inexpensive, ~$150. As long as Iād have enough time to plan tickets and time off from work Iāll be there.
I say we do it twice once in the US and once in Europe so we all get to have our pre-teen-like sleepover with Amal. I wouldnāt mind helping coordinate the European one and keep it budget friendly.

If itās a cyborg meetup, shouldnāt you provide charging booths for attendees to sleep in?
Yeah yeah charging stations for everyoneā¦
Haha, that is awesome.
Well played sir!

charging stations for everyoneā¦
