1st stop (DE): no problems 😊
2nd stop (BE): charger incompatible
3rd stop (BE): charger incompatible
4th stop (BE): charger occupied
5th stop (BE): charging error
6lth stop (BE): insufficient current
7th stop (BE): charger removed
8th stop (BE): charger offline
9th stop (BE): wish me luck...
Finding your way here is challenging. I just went from the H building, into U, into the D wing, realised I was wrong, go through B wing into A wing, realised the talk is actually in D and walked all the way back there and through a zig-zagging hallway to the room where the talk actually is.
All of this holding a large latte, by the way.
I'm watching a talk about something very important for single user instances like mine. It's live right now!
Gosh. It's FULL here. Can't even see the booths behind all the people. Maybe I'll try and get a seat in the Mobile Linux room.
Well, #FOSDEM day 1 has been... survived. I saw some really great talks today and met some good people I know. I'm quite exhausted, so I'll treat myself to a pizza and rest in rhe hotel.
I want to get up early to catch an EV charger at the ULB (FOSDEM venue). With a bit of luck, I can at least begin the journey back home with 100%.
