We played Overcooked as a family last night. @scottalanmiller is a very angry time management game player, lol.

It's not expensive, so that's nice. The toilet bowl nightlight thing creeps me out, though.
But would be good for the kids. Act as a night light instead of leaving the main lights on.
Wait, are you suggesting leaving the toilet seat up at night, to serve as a nightlight?! I'm vetoing that one. Sorry.

Historic shopping mall converts to micro apartments
This is fantastic. The video is a little long, but worth the watch.

RE: Twitter Etiquette
Only if you want to. Don't give in to following peer pressure, or a feeling of obligation. This opinion is that of an introvert, though, so keep that in mind.

RE: Thank you for the wonderful time at MangoCon...here's a coupon code!
Awesome! Also, ummm... you didn't get a good look at everyone that was in your room in the middle of the night right? Cause if not, I absolutely was not there.

RE: Iphone 7+
I think the camera is what @scottalanmiller is most interested in. He takes tons of selfies during our travels, and he's currently on the 5s, so the camera is a huge upgrade.

RE: MangoCon 2017 Topic Ideas
@brianlittlejohn said in MangoCon 2017 Topic Ideas:
Depending on size of conference and number of training topics, etc, I could see something where you had traditional sessions in the morning then a couple of training options after lunch where you could choose one that you would find beneficial for you.
I like this idea. Maybe a 2 hour break out time slot each afternoon with a couple different options, the second day building on the first.

As the manager would be an NPC of sorts where high rolls he gets to destroy you.
But if it is based on your charisma score you would roll the die and add you charisma... wow. You know what nevermind I just realized I'm arguing DnD on a public forum.
This made me giggle, but yeah, you're right, although if the roll was a mid roll, the DM would probably roll as the NPC manager to see if you were effective.

Thanks a lot @Dominica this really helps, those long travels really helping you to get the best options! Will check the search on Tuesday and already set alerts on skyscanner, will add farecompare as well. So let me first book ML Coupon then.
I really need to plan our other places to visit as well, now the new dates planned is from July 23 - Aug 6. New to this 20+ hours flight so wanted to make sure i get at least a day or two before attending MC2017.
You're welcome!
So, you have a good amount of time there to see some of the surrounding area. The USA is quite large, so you will want to check google maps for the drive times to other places to which you may be interested in road tripping. Something I would definitely suggest, is making time to visit Niagara Falls. It's about 1.5 hours from Rochester and most definitely worth your limited time and the drive. If you are able to get a visa for Canada, that's a bonus, but if not, there are spectacular views of the Horseshoe Falls from the American side. The Finger Lakes wine region is scenic and scattered with small wineries that offer tastings, many times free. Winery hopping is a great way to spend an afternoon. It's possible we may have an informal wine tour after MangoCon2017 too. There are many places within reach, suggestions all depend on your interests, as well as how much time you're willing to spend traveling.

@Ambarishrh said in MangoCon 2017:
Just searched for ROC and found that, weird that it didn't came up on my search with the keywork NYC, checking rates now
Ah okay, well that's why. Rochester is not near NYC, so that's why it wouldn't come up.
As for how to get the best airfare, you're a bit early for booking for next July. There's a great article on farecompare.com about how far ahead of time to buy airfare to get the best rate, and what days of the week to search. Clear your cache and then try searching again on a Tuesday afternoon, and you will notice the prices change. Consider setting up an airfare watch on farecompare.com to be notified when prices drop. Hope that helps!

RE: Tablet or small laptop for 1st grader
@fuznutz04 said in Tablet or small laptop for 1st grader:
@scottalanmiller Any specific reason for the Win10 laptop VS something else?
We replaced an older, lightweight laptop, so we gave it to her. We homeschool, and I use some curricula with online components so it made sense for her to have her own laptop. She also has an iPad and a kindle Fire.

It's like Unicorn Farts! Dark magic comes from unicorn butts.
Excuse me, but unicorn farts are light magic.
