Critical Mass Aberdeen tomorrow

by Andy Gaskell

Hiya Just a wee heads up, it's the 2nd Critical Mass Aberdeen tomorrow. I went along last month and I'd totally recommend it, if you like cycling of any kind, meeting a nice bunch of folk, or urban activism, I'd say come along :) It starts at 6pm from outside Marischal College, last friday of every month. There were around 30 or 40 folk last week despite the sketchy weather. I think some people went for a drink at 6 degrees north afterwards. It's around 10k, from 2 laps, but you could just do 1 lap if you prefer to do 5k. It's a pretty leisurely pace really. The map and numbers from Strava on my phone last month looked like: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fd7-8_ZXEAoNqi7?format=jpg General info: https://sites.google.com/view/critical-mass-aberdeen/what-i-need-to-know Twitter: https://twitter.com/CMAberdeen Their blog: https://cmaberdeen.wordpress.com/ P&J article about last month's: https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/aberdeen-aberdeenshire/4862266/bi… I'll be heading along, see you there if you're coming too, more the merrier :) Sorry if you knew about this already, or if you live too far away to make it.

Return ride would be to George Street area by 915-930pm.

Re: [57north-announce] Open Tuesday, 11th October 2022

by Andy Gaskell

Hiya I'll be in around 7pm I think. After using the band-saw last week, and it being kinda ok, I'm gonna try sort out the bed, and maybe make a right-angle-frame-thing. Might do some more Laser-ing too, as that was fun last week :) Maybe also looking at laptops on the ever terrible CEX and thinking about going to DroidCon in London in 2 weeks.

Friday Night Pizza Party

by Tom Jones

Hello Hackers, 57North has been hosting a FreeBSD hackathon this week. This evening we are going to have a small beer and pizza party at the hackerspace. If you are around when we order pizza we'll get enough to include you, as a bit of a thank you to the hackerspace for offering us somewhere to sit and write more bugs^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H code. Lets say we'll order about 7. There is also some beer and if you bring some more we'll have too much and it'll be a great evening. We are here today so it would be great for our guests to meet some more members responsible for the space. - Tom
