I was quite nervous about how the Ursa Major Awards presentation Ceremony would go off, but to my great relief, things went pretty smoothly. Jay Stoat was the MC as he's a much better public speaker than me, and Logan Husky added some professional touches in the AV department. The event went for about half an hour, and I proudly boast that it was the best ever. Thanks to FurDU and its staff for hosting it. Video of the event should be available soon, but you can check out the results on the UMA website at www.ursamajorawards.org Spoiler -- MLP failed to win any category it qualified in.
And in other good news -- my tablet lives! Whatever runaway process that locked it up and would not let it restart apparently kept running and draining the battery until it was utterly flat, upon which it finally could not run anymore. I recharged it, crossed my fingers, and turned it on. It booted! My tablet was back to normal. I don't know what caused the problem, but at least I know what to do if it happens again.
So it loves flat-bottomed cells?
