# 05:20 jeremycherfas Definitely missing some posts from Slack here in IRC but can’t be sure whether it is the bridge or my bouncer.
# 05:21 aaronpk i've seen the gateway quit and rejoin 20 seconds later, so it's possible there's a bug causing it to crash on certain messages or something

# 19:13 [schmarty] it's a closed cobblestone street w/ tables everywhere, nearby restaurants to order from.
# 19:16 [schmarty] i've been a couple of times. it can get crowded but there's a good deal of turnover.
# 19:16 GWG I am trying to figure out if a cheap Android TV box with a webcam can run Zoom
# 19:17 [tantek] [schmarty] is that near where we went last time and went to the bar/cafe with the giant Connect 4 game?

# 19:18 GWG [schmarty]: If it works... little box with full webcam.. good conferencing box
# 19:21 [schmarty] GWG: agreed that would make a great conference streaming box!
# 19:21 GWG If not, I can use it for something else for $30
# 19:22 aaronpk $30? I am skeptical it has the power to run zoom then, but if it does, that's fantastic
# 19:23 GWG If it works, but slowly, I could spring for a better one
# 19:23 aaronpk also remember to get something better for audio, like an external bluetooth table mic like the ones I gave to rose
# 19:24 [tantek] [schmarty] interesting. great list of food options. which is now making me hungry
# 19:24 GWG I will need some people to test a few options with me, playing the other side
# 19:25 GWG I have two 10 Bluetooth speaker microphone combos
# 19:25 [jgmac1106] I like the idea, may make sponsorship difficult unless we chose a hub
# 19:25 [jgmac1106] I have vzm multidirectional mics but they aren't bluetooth but can plug into cameras
# 19:25 [schmarty] jgmac1106: interesting re: sponsors. weather could also be an issue in early October, since it's full-on outdoors.
# 19:28 [jgmac1106] Maybe that board game place Clinton..its October not too cold yet average lowstill probably above 50
# 19:28 [jgmac1106] I like Stone Street a lot..wondering if there is a way to make it work
# 19:29 [schmarty] Clinton Hall has outdoor heaters, if i recall correctly. and it should be possible for us to reserve seats and do a sponsorship. plus it has outdoor activities.
# 19:37 [tantek] In this case, the NYC crowds seem to default to social meetups etc at bar/pub-like venues. Maybe inertia? It is something I've observed consistently when visiting NYC (in contrast to other cities meetups)
# 19:39 [tantek] Would be good to get opinions from NYC locals [tmiller] and [leigh]
