Hey, hello, happy Tuesday
Hope you're well, it's Tuesday again, so open evening at the hackspace.
We're in the throbbing heart of Bridge of Don south, at...
Suite H Kettock Lodge
Innovation Park
Campus Two
Bridge of Don
Aberdeen
AB22 8GU
...there is sort of useful blurb on...
https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings
...and...
https://www.57north.org.uk/contact
...just press buzzer H and someone will come and let you in after a brief
wait. Reply if you have any questions, if you want to share your plans, or
if you'd like a lift.
I'll be along around 7 ish, will be doing some mixture of looking at sewing
machines, 3d printing, tinkering with PHP, pootling about, and moving
things around in a semi intelligible way.
See you there :)
Hi all,
I've been working on some improvements to my and my company's email security and this is a test mail to see if anything breaks when the mailing list tries to forward my mail on.
They've got crazy schemes like MTA-STS now where you need to publish DNS records *and* run a web server to host a policy file to tell other mail servers not to talk to you unless the connection is encrypted.
Mostly you can ignore this though.
Thanks,
Iain.

complaining about bitbucket downtime.
See y'all then.

PS, here is an AI generated poem about hacking on Tuesdays, it's not super
terrible, but it isn't great either...
On a Tuesday, crisp and dimly lit,
The glow of screens, a perfect fit.
Fingers dance on the keyboard's face,
In code, I find my sacred space.
A curious quest, a puzzle unfolds,
Through labyrinths of ones and zeroes cold.
Packets whisper secrets untold,
Their trails of data, pure and bold.
The hum of fans, a rhythmic song,
The thrill of righting what feels so wrong.
Not for chaos, not for greed,
But to uncover, to sow the seed.
Scripts are written, exploits run,
Each line a battle hard-won.
Firewalls breached, the barriers fall,
Echoes of triumph in every call.
The clock ticks on, the night grows deep,
But curiosity denies me sleep.
Tuesday fades to Wednesday's hue,
Yet still, there’s more to break and do.
For hacking’s art is more than play—
It’s crafting futures from the fray.
On a Tuesday night, beneath the stars,
I stitch together this world of ours.
Hiya
I'll be along at around 7:30ish. Does anyone need a lift?
Cheers
Andy

We're all set - I'm about to head on an adventure to aberdeenshire to get some
essentials and then kenny will make some mac and cheese and we'll head down.
There's a spotify playlist, if you've not seen/added to it, give me a shout on
arrival and I'll share it with you :D
Are y'all coming? What're you bringing?
Cheers!

Heya :)
Happy Tuesday, it's open eve at the space today.
We're located at...
Suite H Kettock Lodge
Innovation Park Campus Two
Bridge of Don
Aberdeen
AB22 8GU ...and there is blurb on finding us on
https://www.57north.org.uk/contact and some more on
https://www.57north.org.uk/open-evenings. Hit the buzzer (Suite H) and
someone will come and let you in after a brief wait.
If you're new, you might want to bring a laptop, and/or something to tinker
with.
If you're not new, ping back a reply to tell us what you'll be up to and
maybe what time you'll be in. I'll be along from around 7:30pm tinkering
with my desktop and printing pictures of dogs in hats.
Does anyone need a lift or anything?
Cheers
I can contribute an air fryer to the cause (and a wee slow cooker, if
that's of any use). This is, of course, contingent on there being good
vegan snacks to put in the air fryer.
