Is anyone going to by way of on Friday afternoon or Saturday? There will be thousands of stickers at the Stickerkoning.nl ready to go to FOSDEM. But they don't have a ride because most of us are already in Brussels. It's at least two big boxes so not a task for train people to take on.

@nicorikken good idea, thank you. I'll edit the post.

@NGIZero@mastodon.xyz avatar

@thibaultmol @nicorikken yes I think you're right. But it feels a bit unnatural delete and repost a message. So the edit is a second best.

@thibaultmol @nicorikken @sofiaritz oh reading your text now. Would be great if it does work :).

@nicorikken thanks, really appreciate it! They can contact Tessel.

$NewJob and $NewLife in $NewCity are all taking up so much of my headspace that I've had very little time to work on or any other passion projects lately.

In particular, this has impacted my @NGIZero grant work - I am still finding time to make progress on the code, but I just can't seem to bring myself to writing blog posts and pushing things over the line required to achieve the milestones.

I should push to github more often tho. Code is getting written...

@HerraBRE sounds like a lot of new things happening at once. Understandable there is limited space left. Really good to see a NoisySquare sticker in the wild, btw :).
Edit: sticker.

@HerraBRE it really was!

I love @NGIZero so much. It seems to be nearly 100% aligned with my hardware/software ideals, and doubling down constantly on those ideals.

@polezaivsani
Hmm yeah, when you put it like that. I understand why that wording could give you that impression.
We don't mean independent as in 'stand-alone' but rather that you don't need to be part of a formal structure like a business or institution. (You may, but don't have to.)
Wholeheartedly agree with your point that the commons are best taken care of in collaboration. Had not heard of Conway's Law but it sounds convincing (and interesting).

@polezaivsani Thank you! That is such a beautiful wish. Hope we can all have some of that in this new year. @EU_Commission

@polezaivsani NGI0 is a coalition of organisations [1] each with their own (often overlapping) networks and communities.
One of the coalition partners is @APC [2] , a membership-based international network of organisations and activists, founded in 1990 to empower social movements to use ICTs to build strategic communities. guifi.net is one of their members.
