[18:49] <genii> bregma: Yes, it's a landmark here for hackers and other electronics enthusiasts
[18:49] <bregma> used to hang out there back in the day
[18:50] <bregma> mind you, haven't been to Toronto in 15 years, probably why they're closing :)
[18:50] <genii> Heh
[18:50] <genii> I think these days people just order stuff like that from Alibaba or so on
[18:50] <bregma> sparkfun.com for all your electronics porn
[18:51] <genii> Yeah, there and digikey
[18:51] <bregma> do not subscribe to their weekly newsletter
[18:59] <genii> How does that meetup.com "monthly organizer subscription" part go?
[19:00] <genii> Like, I wonder if Canonical is paying or what
[19:13] <bregma> dunno
[19:14] <genii> Apparently Canonical is paying, LoCos just sign up for what plan they think is right for them. so not too horrible
