I watched this video and I must now find a way to stop myself wanting an automated DVD ripping robot…

I have no idea how to do that, so please do yourselves a favour and DON'T watch this video:

Nice to see some familiar faces & meet new ones over at #JFall !

Always inspiring to speak to folks who care about Open Source. It really makes working on #radicle worth it all the more!!

Wheels down #AMS for #JFall !

Really excited to meet folks from #NLJUG these couple of days.

If you contribute/maintain Open Source, I'd love your thoughts on whether it's time we found a better home for #FLOSS - as a #PublicGood.

I think that home can be #Radicle. Join my talk to hear why! ;)

A Decade of #OpenSpace #Unconferences 🎉 Back in 2014 #JCrete sparked a simple idea: “Could I bring more Open Space to the world?” With 2 more founders from 2 other countries, we launched #AgileCrete – a playground for coaches, Scrum Masters and devs to swap ideas about everything agile.

Dear @bridgefy.bsky.social ,

What’s the point of “messages without internet” if you’re asking me to sign up for an account, **especially** an #apple or #google account!?

No, thanks.

I was reminded today just how much time commuting can take off of someone’s life…

Hooray for #remoteWork !

Hooray for employers that can evaluate workers with criteria beyond “office presence” !

Hooray for businesses that don’t need a “return to the office” policy to thrive!

As the world becomes digital, #E2EE ensures citizens can have private discussions online. Because some things should be private.

A #conference where software #developers can also bring their kids is already not common.

One where the kids have **more** fun though!?! 🥳

🤯🤯🤯

Join us, Oct 24-27, in #Crete!
💡 Did you know? Our unconference venue comes also with not 1, not 2… but 5 water slides and an indoor pool!! Perfect for cooling off after a heated discussion. 🏊‍♂️

There is no route out of fascism that involves sacrificing the vulnerable. All that does is tell the fascists that we're willing to turn on each other for the illusion of safety.
A lot of political influencers within the Atlantic/NYT orbit are very, very eager to sell us on the lie that we can get out of fascism by sacrificing trans people.

They will beat that drum even louder as the right weaponizes this tragedy.

They are liars now & they will be liars in the coming days.

I introduced this project during a talk at @dcfurs.com earlier this month.

It now build successfully and the integration tests pass. :D

There are some improvements I want to make (replace the DKG with ChillDKG, passkey-backed authentication, etc.), but yeah :3
