The Flow Battery Research Collective (FBRC) are building an open source battery. Technology writer Koen Vervloesem did a nice write-up about their #FOSDEM talk in the Energy devroom. FBRC works on redox flow batteries which are better suited for long-term, stationary storage and less hazardous than Li-ion batteries. FBRC plan to democratize flow battery technology by developing an open source flow battery, starting with a development kit.
A few years ago, I gave my kid a #PostgreSQL elephant plushie (here named El-El). At #fosdem this year, I got a selfie with the human sized PostgreSQL mascot. I was asked today when I would bring big El-El to our house.
Time to start a new project and a new daily dev diary 
Following an inspiring discussion with Schabi from the #NewPipe team at #FOSDEM, I'm planning to build a YouTube client based on NewPipe for #SailfishOS.
I plan to write about my progress every day 
Once again, mostly for my own benefit, but anyone interested to follow along is very welcome!
This year marked #Luanti’s second consecutive appearance at #FOSDEM! Held in Brussels, Belgium, FOSDEM is the largest free and open source software conference in Europe. Fresh off our recent rebranding and new release cycle, FOSDEM was a fantastic opportunity to collect feedback and update people on what’s happening in the Luanti world
It was such a thrill to talk about #nix at #fosdem ! I'm about a month late posting this, but here is the recording of my talk on "My Nixos-Powered Homelab" #nixos #homelab

Sadly, I got COVID-19 at #FOSDEM and missed the last day (and my own keynote!).
I noticed you're replying in this thread where I was asking to chat with Affiliate Reps who had questions (since they're my constituents). If you are, I'd like to chat offline in a more in depth conversation.
Also happy to answer your questions here in public if that suits you better, I'm just very longwinded so this format is tough for me!

Three weeks ago we were getting ready to go to #FOSDEM. We didn’t realise just how good the experience would be.
Now we’re energised, excited, and getting started on a whole range of ideas that came out of the event. More on that soon 
For now, enjoy this little snapshot of Brussels and our @fosdem experience.
Huge thank you to @_elena for getting a photo of the team 
What's absolutely HILARIOUS is that I had to put a warning in my NOW page about my #FOSS radicalization.
Because if you know me IRL but haven't been in touch for a few months, you'd be REALLY surprised about what I'm currently doing (aka EXTREMELY techie things).
To blunt the shock of the transition, I put a little section in there about my @pixelfed photo gallery, because even non-techie people would get that.
Anyway there are pics of #FOSDEM too: https://blog.elenarossini.com/what-im-up-to-february-2025-edition/

@CrisColor @prahou aw, that *is* super sad.
@andypiper at #fosdem you were passing out stickers for a similar indie music fedi site, i think?
