What's wrong with regular LTE cellular data? It's usually more reliable than most public wifi networks anyways. I don't bother switching to wifi unless I have no cell signal.
My laptop doesn't have LTE.

Mark Russinovich is on the stage now.

Tether it to your phone. That is what I do.

I pay actual usage for my talk, text, and data, so if I have a halfway decent wifi connection I prefer that. Keeps my monthly bill averaging $30/month

This is the main reason that I would like to use WiFi, but Tim is right, most of the "free WiFi" that I've bumped into is horrible. Starbucks WiFi - yeah forget it, it's crap!

I'm very lucky here. The local coffee shop put in Ubiquiti gear. The first time I remember telling someone their tech guy did a great job!

Holy cow, they shown spotlights into the audiences eyes several times to the point that I feel nauseous from it. What the crap. Other people next to be vocally said something about it. Went on for a few minutes. Really awful.

Did you stare into it or close your eyes and look away?

Closed my eyes, but kept opening them thinking it was over and they would get me again.

I'm in the Scale Out session now. But the speaker is really hard to understand.
-
They really need to fix the mic gain. It's blooming every few minutes.

You would figure that for a tech company conference that they would have all of this other stuff figured out and at top-notch.

It's harder than you think. Not like the staff running stuff is part of the software engineering team. And not like software engineers know much about audio. And not like they are at their own facility, it's a conference center.

Don't get me started on audio equipment. You can go from sound check to opening act and have a cable or mic go bad in that time. I bet @RojoLoco has even more recent stories.

No coffee on the second floor between the main session and the break outs? THat's the time that we need the coffee the most.

Did sound last night for a band. Sound check went fine. We lost a powered monitor inbetween sound check and start time half hour later. Happens often enough.

Finished lunch and am now sitting in a session room to get some quiet time before the session itself begins. It's the Linux Agent Scripting session.
