Hey @TJIRL

@jaredbusch said in Error While Updating Ubuntu 18.04 to 18.10:

Always reboot before doing system updates, IMO.

It was freshly powered up just to do the update. So it was.

It's all installed now. So far, it's looking pretty good.

1261 packages to update.

964MB to download.

Might take a little while.

Ran it again, and it worked the second time.

Going to reboot and try again, brb.

Trying to do the normal, command line upgrade process (this is for a workstation but the GUI hasn't shown the update as being available yet) and I get this error...

@eddiejennings said in MangoCon 2019 Venue Announcement:

Any plans of having a block of rooms at $hotel for MangoCon folks to reserve?

We've found that you don't really save money on the room rate when reserving a block, vs reserving via booking.com, expedia, etc., so no, we hadn't planned on it. Also, there are hotels from several different chains nearby, so this way people can just book their preferred brand on their own.

We're excited to announce that MangoCon 2019 will be held at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Las Colinas! This brand new venue is located in the Toyota Music Factory complex and is surrounded by restaurants and bars with plenty of hotels nearby. It's close to both DFW and Love Field airports, so no matter from where you're flying, it will be easy to get to.

@JaredBusch brought to our attention that it's so new that the GoogleMaps satellite view still shows it as a pile of dirt! So we will be heading down there to confirm the existence of sidewalks between the Alamo Drafthouse and the closest hotels. Please stay tuned for a list of hotels and other attractions in the area, and MangoCon welcomes you to Dallas!

I think your best strategy is to get on the job hunt now, and be ready to move when you find a position you want. I don’t know of a specific head hunting company in the area, but maybe that’s the best way to go, since you’re holding out for the right fit?
