I love it too! Completely different feeling tho. I didn’t feel like buying one of those, I just wanted something a little bit batteries included

Yeah I mainly bought it for Pokemon Fire Red (my guilty pleasure) but then I remembered about Pokemon Pinball, Pokemon TGC, but also Chrono Trigger and Mortal Kombat for SNES, and having them just ready to play was super super nice

Do you play any ROMhack?

Yes! I have to admit that some of the love also comes from the fact that they also send you a microSD FULL of ROMs

Wish I had a jammer for that (cheers to my FBI friends)

Not exactly the same use case but I often feel like I would love my llm to be aware of several projects at once (eg multirepo architectures)

Starting an OSS holiday is hard work
- set expectation in the repo
- redirect chat.npmx.dev to npmx.dev/recharging
- kill all chat invite links
- lock public channels in our chat

Our collaboration tools could help us here. GitHub, Discord, et al, could we get a Vacation mode for our communities?

Definitely. My Signal is dottorblaster.17, I’m arriving the day before Kubecon then I’m pretty free, let’s absolutely hook up :)

I’m not saying you should settle on it, but it would be a pity not to try 😇

My wife is going to kill me, I already have an upcoming talk at KubeCon Amsterdam (actually CiliumCon). But definitely I’ll save the date for next year. I love this kind of grassroot events, did you ever think of coming to FOSDEM?

I just wait for every years’s recordings like a child waiting for a Christmas morning. They do an freaking good job with it and I want them to know.

Not quite the same kind of experience but Monktoberfest is held in a ferry terminal

Anyway, thanks to you for bringing me some enthusiasm today. I needed it :)

That’s what we are looking forward to do at Distrobox too, great to see some lookalike minds

It was Plasma 6 and I actually agree with you but not at a point to actually make a switch 😬 but also Hyprland is a main contender here when it comes to my setups. Basically the only full fledged GNOME setup I own right now is my company laptop (Aeon)

Also back in the day there was unmonastery.org - very cool initiative, hackers met up and actually lived for a while in ancient monasteries.

D&D in a Castle by Tabletop Vacations Inc. D&D in a Castle is a 4-day luxury, all-inclusive tabletop gaming retreat. The event is hosted in a genuine English Castle when in the UK, or in a fantastical Castle-Hotel in the USA. Guests eat, sleep...

Not _exactly_ like this but you might want to look at dndinacastle.com

Also, in Italy we organized the Spaghetti Open Data meetup, hosted in Bologna’s Salaborsa Library. The main challenging point is actually finding a castle that allows you to rent and host an event like an unconference.

Big fan of castles for community retreats and events. Huge plus one :F
