@andypiper @cymplecy @kianryan I wonder if between us we could finesse something on fedi to amplify what I'm going to (self-deprecatingly!) refer to as Weird Nerd Events. Maybe a combination of:

dedicated hashtag that people can use (but perhaps not #WeirdNerdEventUK?!)
bot that boosts posts from pure "event announcement accounts" (are there (m)any?)
...and/or posts snippits from monitored website RSS feeds (like say https://blog.emfcamp.org/rss)

But but but...

Sometimes there actually is an iCal feed like on #Birkenhack's #Gancio site (https://agenda.birkenhack.org/feed/ics?show_recurrent=true) that could be sliced, diced and served up on a central place, perhaps with a little help from the #MinistryOfChaos. I wonder how common these are?

Got the Flint 2 (MT6000) running plain ol' #NixOS and it routes!

There's something a bit weird about replacing your tiny laptop with something even tinier that is literally the same form factor as a Nintendo DS

A letter arrived today from a not-so-secret admirer, thanks @neil for the love and appreciation!

The sun has set in #Birkenhead, it's time to start hacking on some projects

Two Birkenhackers successfully made a 32x32 LED panel work with #wled on a #esp32 on Tinker Night last Wednesday. Hopefully we can increase the size of the array on the next Tinker Night!

We even used our Macintosh LCIII connected to the internet, to search how to wire it up. Since this machine is not powerful enough to display ads, we were able to work without distraction.
