jjuran schmarty: Can you provide information about parking near the Tech Center?
#
jjuran My only sensible option is to drive there.
#
GWG jjuran: From where?
#
jjuran GWG: From within MD, NW of DC
#
jjuran In particular, what does parking cost (if anything), how much time can be allocated to a meter at once, and can it be refilled or must one relocate to a new space?

[eddie] !tell I’ve only stayed there for like 2 hours during a HWC before so, could be completely different for all day
#
[eddie] Oops!

#
jjuran [eddie]: Right, a weekend day is a different proposition than a weekday evening
#
Loqi jjuran: [eddie] left you a message 10 minutes ago: this is where I park: https://g.co/kgs/o6gR3X not sure about all the prices, etc

schmarty jjuran: there has been some construction around the neighborhood. I plan to update the wiki page with parking options closer to the actual date.

jjuran thanks
#
aaronpk schmarty: I just ordered this thing to bring to Baltimore with the hopes that it's a nice all-in-one device for remote participation https://store.solaborate.com/
#
aaronpk they have a 30 day return policy so I can try it out when it arrives
#
schmarty aaronpk: oh, neat! that looks pretty great for the price!
#
schmarty i think DHF has a couple of projectors that take HDMI, so we could set it up on those.
#
aaronpk cool, i'm gonna bring my little flat HDMI monitor too
#
aaronpk lol almost type HTML monitor

#
[kevinmarks] In a way, a chromecast is an html monitor
#
aaronpk lol
#
gRegorLove Any Leaders Summit plans for Baltimore?
#
schmarty gRegorLove: none planned, yet! it seems like you, aaronpk, me, and (maybe) chrisaldrich will be there. that could be enough folks!
#
aaronpk not a bad idea!
#
gRegorLove I can't do Friday day, though. My flight gets in around 6:30pm
#
gRegorLove Just remembered we talked about doing one sooner than IWS

aaronpk is testing out other livestream options and might have found something that can work
#
schmarty aaronpk: ooh! ready to share?
#
aaronpk https://teradek.com/collections/live-air-family
#
aaronpk it surprisingly scrapes by okay on my ipad mini 2
#
aaronpk so I assume it'll work very well on a newer ipad
#
schmarty aaronpk: woah!
#
aaronpk that plus the scaler/splitter and my teradek to get the presenter's computer into it
[eddie] joined the channel
#
schmarty use the ipad's camera for presenter image?
#
aaronpk no, HDMI input via this little device
#
schmarty ah wow
#
Zegnat Is there a US evenings time that lines up with an EU accessible time for Leaders? I only see US morning - EU evening mentioned: https://indieweb.org/Leaders#planning_considerations
#
aaronpk this seems slightly less stable than a hardware solution, plus i'd have to buy a new iPad, so I might abandon this plan
#
schmarty oh hah, that certainly raises the price a bit. :}
