? Debian Malaysia Members. Photo taken at the community track hall. ?
As most of you know, my mood recently is as bad as shit…
I was suppose to attend this Malaysia Open Source Conference (MOSC2010) at 29th June 2010.
But I only go at the second day.
Last year, I was attending this same conference and assist in Ubuntu Malaysia booth at the exhibition hall.
This year, I am more focus on Debian Malaysia booth, since Debian Malaysia is still very new and need more people to help on the activities. Of course, I did go to Ubuntu booth as well.
Some of you might aware that I always mentioned Ubuntu Linux in this blog. If you follow my blog long enough, you might realize that I am also a Debian Linux user. Most of my servers is running on Debian Linux and CentOS. And Ubuntu is in my desktop and netbook, since Ubuntu is best for use with GUI where is comes default with a lot of nice desktop applications to use.
To be honest, aside from attending this MOSC2010 to assist the exhibition booths, there is another reason I go there. It is to see my fellow geek friends and relax myself by doing crazy things. You all should know how emo I am recently and been talking emo things in this blog recently…
When at the exhibition hall, I did something somehow, can be considered crazy and stupid.
My netbook do have a webcam, so after I hook up my netbook to the wireless, I did a live streaming at Ustream and broadcast live from my netbook. I am holding the netbook and point my netbook around at people’s face and tell them “Say hi! You are on the live streaming now!”. And then, one of the fellow Debian member borrowed me his external webcam, and then I just plug it in and continue the broadcast with an easier way, just pointing that webcam to people.
I’m sure everyone at the exhibition hall think that I am crazy. But hey, opensource is about freedom, and I have the freedom to do what I like as long as it did not violate the laws, so screw those who talk rubbish there!
By the way, thank to those who had watched the live streaming.
Especially you, Prakash, thanks for sms and let me know that you are watching.
Lol
During the end of the 1st day I was there, the 2nd day of the conference, I did another crazy things.
I found that there is a lot of huge LCD screen around the lobby of this conference. It was showing the tweets with the hashtags #mosc2010. Guess what? I gone crazy and wanted to do something crazy again. I just sit on the floor and turn on my netbook and try flood the twitter screen. Honestly, these fellow Debian fellers are rocks lah. They see I do like that, they all also follow me and flood the screen together. This is called, the team spirit. Hahaha
Lol.
It is good to have people to teman me to do crazy things.
? Pictures taken when we flooding the twit screen. ?
At the final day of the conference, as usual, I was arriving there late due to some work which I had delayed for a lot days.
And I reach there, I did promote the Chicken Run Project at the Debian booth and give away free hosting account with it, since Chicken Run Project is running on a Debian cluster. It is good to give away freebies to help on promote Debian anyway, although I arrived there late and didn’t gave out much accounts…
At the last day, guess what?
They all asked me, “Don’t want to do streaming today ar?”.
And of course, since they reminded me, I did do live streaming once again and this time, I do it more crazy.
The Gorgeous Geeks booth is just beside the Debian booth, and I keep on point the webcam to them and say, “Smile! You are on the live streaming!”.
Yeah, I know I am annoying, I am trying to be annoying and force myself not to think of anything anyway…
But hey, I am lucky that they din slap me for being annoying, instead, they do responded with a smile.
But think back and see, did they realize that I am actually pointing the webcam at them? Did they smile at the camera or just simply smiling like that only? I don’t know lah, I was not using my brain at that moment, and just doing crazy things without thinking anyway.
Off topic: Hmmm… In my mind that time, I was thinking, if my love do give me a respond that I desire… It would be damn great and I will have no such emo mood like what I have now…
Anyway, woman tends to change their thoughts easily. When they gave you the respond(answer) they gave earlier, and the end, they will give you another respond(answer). That’s the cause of my emo anyway.
? Photo taken when I was still doing streaming. The Ironman in the picture is me. ?
By the way, talking about the Gorgeous Geeks.
Last year, they are not here in this conference. Last year was FOSS-Chix who attended the conference. They are both different community group anyway. No offense, @Cawanpink, the GGs are prettier than you. Lol.
By the way, here is the picture of Debian Malaysia and the Gorgeous Geeks during packing up the stuffs at the end of the conference.
Anyway, thank you guys(Debian Malaysia) for doing crazy things with me. Thanks to Gorgeous Geeks for the sweet smiles that cheer up the exhibition hall. Thanks to the organizer, OSDC who organize such a great event. Thanks to TM for providing the Internet access so that I am able to broadcast the crazy things I’ve done in the exhibition hall.
And at last, thanks to me that you all gone crazy and doing crazy things in the conference.
Lol
Sweet memories will not just fade away, just like that.
It stays forever and even though it has ended, the memories still stays…
Sometimes it ends with joys, sometimes it ends with pains.
But no matter what, the memories will remind in our heart, our mind…
