Problem: many of us can never remember the acronym for the (wonderful) dutch #hackercamp #why2025, largely because they change the acronym each time it’s on every 4 years to start a new brand 🤯

Solution: the lovely @jonty built a new URL to always point at the latest: https://tla20xx.org 🙌

Problem: I can never remember the new acronym 🙈

Solution: I present a new domain pointing at Jonty’s one https://hackercamp.nl

(Ever get the feeling you’re playing a years-long game of buckaroo…?)

Last year at #WHY2025 I sat under the right canopy at the right time. The EMF badge people approached Arturo182 to design a keeboard hexpansion, which he sadly had to decline. But I sat there saying:

"maybe I can design something" 👉👈

Two prototypes, one job termination and a new friend @sodoku (who wrote the firmware) later and we somehow ended up here: an official hexpansion for you to get for EMF camp.

Anyone put a toothbrush motor in a #dect phone so they can get a vibration notification on an incoming call?
I noticed at #emfcamp and #why2025 a phone would ring and everyone would have to check it wasn't theirs 🤔

Today somebody told me that my talk at #39C3 and #WHY2025 has been written about in a *paper* magazine! Three full sized pages! I bought a physical copy at Bruna at the #Amsterdam Centraal train station today.

Did not know that this was going to be published, so this is quite a fun but also a strange surprise!

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
