-2 Day DEFCON 20 notes.

Monday, July 23rd, 2012

The schedule for DEFCON 20 is up.

Lawrence reminded me on Saturday that I also had not solicited panel requests, so this is your pre-DEFCON 20 post.

I’m flying out Wednesday morning and getting to Las Vegas around 1 PM. I’m hoping to visit the Mob Museum (just because it is new since my last visit, and I haven’t seen it) and to make a return trip to the two bookstores I visited last year. Lotus of Siam is also required.

There is some stuff going on at DEFCON on Thursday:

Here’s what I’m interested in on Friday:

Saturday, we have a possible tie for this year’s “Hippie, PLEASE” panel:

I shan’t be attending either. The Saturday panels I am interested in:

Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! Live at DEFCON 20! Nitro-burning FUNNY CARS!

So that’s that. If anyone has any specific panel requests after looking over the posted schedule, let me know (by email on in the comments), and I’ll try to hit those events. Also, if anyone has any recommendations for new, cool, or interesting places to eat in Vegas, feel free to leave those in comments.

(Edited to add: It’s a Borepatch-o-lanche! Thank you, brother man!)
