I like when I can still get little kid levels excited by stuff.
They might as well set up a cot and some blankets for me at hardware hacking village @defcon.bsky.social next year coz I’m in deep now.
The Demo Gods were not kind to me today but I am helping @oshwassociation.bsky.social raise money & they are still livestreaming here:
