On MeshCore, there’s a room and a repeater in Utrecht, which are both called WHY2025. That makes me feel quite happy, because it reminds me of a very nice time. #meshcore #why2025

Beautiful nerds going to @info, this post about adding a shade cloth to my tent at #WHY2025 to make it a lot more comfortable inside on sunny days may be of interest. Now's a great time to start thinking about your camp setup, and ordering anything you might need.

Attached: 1 image As I procrastinate breaking camp. Time to talk about the item I'm really pleased I brought with me. My shade cloth. I set it up over the side of my tent to provide shade during the hottest part of the day so that I can hide in my tent if I get overwhelmed by all the people. Normally tents get way too hot during full sun. But this has worked brilliantly. It's sold as shade cloth for plants. The search term is "shade cloth 99%" as it comes with different levels of reflectivity. #WHY2025 1/n

two (2) whole interaction-free days of wheel-spinning, nose-following, generally doing a little bit of a lot of stuff <3

a background task is to get a couple of things together for the #emfcamp CfP...

Who knows if they'll accept "Synthercise, the chiptune dance fitness experience" again, but it's fun to do, @discontinuity seems to be up for co-teaching, and most of the effort has already been made, including new tracks added for #why2025

Yes i did say at the time "I never want to hear this tune again", but my tic80 cover version of Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" is unstoppable

Spent some time this monday preparing the machine including installing 2.11BSD to the M2322 hard drive, as my DIY disk emulator showed some reliability issues at #why2025 . I'm still in the process of applying the latest updates to the system, as rebuilding kernels and part of the userland on a 1MB RAM, less than 1 MIPS system takes a fair bit of time.

Once I'm done updating the system, it will be at patch level 499 - the latest available for #211bsd , released on January 14th 2026!

If you want to play around with this system, visit the open day at RevSpace The Hague next saturday:
https://revspace.nl/OpenDag2026

I will be attaching a few physical terminals to it (including a VT55 and VT100!) as well as allowing telnet from the local network.

Besides this, if you do visit and want to trade PDP-11 parts, I have a large collection of mostly QBUS cards that I want to part with, and am looking for PDP-11/84 (PMI) and PDP-11/44 (EUB) memory boards as well as spare CPU cards for the /44.

Is there an easy way to flash something useful and usable on the #WHY2025 badges yet?

Are there any other people here which are also still waiting for their #why2025 post-event merchandise order to arrive?

I recently wrote the merch team an email and asked them if they would be so kind and just cancel my order as the supplier of the merch still isn't able to deliver the merch in a good enough quality. But they denied and told me cancellations aren't possible.

Wtf, I paid almost 150€ in August 2025 which I didn't receive until March 2026. And I can't cancel the order. Seriously?
