  I’ve been in Buchanan Galleries in Glasgow many times, but today learned there is a giant rock suspended from the ceiling that was put there as part of an art installation when it first opened over 20 years ago. 🪨 🖼️

  * ahem * hello. Dusting off my account again, which can only mean one thing: #emfcamp is coming up! This year I’ll be presenting: An SRE’s Guide to Camping in Extreme Conditions. If you’ll be at camp and are interested in listening to me ramble about the heater dying in -21 degree temperatures, and how incident management practices actually help in real life situations. Then please favourite my talk on the schedule! :blobfoxheartcute: https://www.emfcamp.org/schedule/2026/230-an-sres-gui...

  EMF Bound! 🚐 I keep sending people our video from EMF Camp 2024 to try and explain where we’re off to, hacker camp full off cool stuff?! Excited to see what everyone gets up to this year. 🥰 #emfcamp https://youtu.be/4rsc-pnSY40

  Arriving at #emfcamp this evening to set up our wee village, and doing some final prep for my talk en route. Join me on Saturday at 1pm in Stage B! The irony is… the talk is about camping in -21 Winter temperatures. I hope people aren’t hoping for advice on surviving the hot temperatures at camp. 🤣 https://www.emfcamp.org/schedule/2026/230-an-sres-guide-to-camping-in-extreme-conditions

  I took my volunteer shift at the entrance check-in very seriously. Even the grasshoppers need a wristband. Disclaimer: no bugs or wristbands were harmed in the making of this photo. #emfcamp

  Thank you #EMFcamp. I always leave camp feeling inspired, and our village has ideas for shenanigans and contributions for the next camp in 2028! The party hats will return too. Hopefully see many of you again then!

  Hardware hacking! I’ve had this ultrawide monitor for about 5 years now (I split the screen in 3 when using it, and love it). But these monitors have a known issue: if you don’t use them for a while, then they get the “black screen” where the monitor is registered as a display, but refuses to show any output. I didn’t want to give up on it, so I took to the internet. Thanks to a blog I stumbled upon, and some spare time: I removed the overzealous thermistor that gets sad when it registers any...

  Crowdsourcing #emfcamp help. Our village is trying to set up a screen for a mini Bamzooki tournament, but we are missing an adapter for our display screen. :( Does anyone having a VGA/ DVI to HDMI adapter cable they’d be willing to let us borrow? 🙏🏻
