@mbr I’m so sorry to hear it. What kind of douchebag does something like this? Hope you get them back. (Mind you, I had my laptop stolen from the stage, while hooked up to the projector and everything, prior to my talk at a *university* once. Wasn’t fun to say the least.)

@mbr I don't know what Melted Moon was. But thank you for showing me what I believe might be the first GameBoy mod that I've seen. It's rare to see a modded case of any piece of electronics from the 80s for some reason.

@mbr It makes me sad to read about stolen stuff at congress. It was so much stuff last year. And it became a thing the years before that. Before it moved back to Hamburg for the first time I wasn't even able to find somebody who had ever heard of anything being stolen at congress ever. I asked around because there was an incident caused by somebody who snuck in to steal laptops. I used to leave my stuff unattended when I went for a stroll or get a drink. I only stopped because I was asked to by angels and I had to pick up my stuff from lost and found twice because somebody brought it there before somebody else might steal it. That's when this feeling of sadness started and reading about this now makes me realise that the congress that I love doesn't even exist anymore. It's not the same after the thought that theft exists enters your mind.

@mbr if I ever see them online I will try my best to get them to you. What a horrible loss.
