    Thanks so much to Polarian for organising, as well as to @fsfe@mastodon.social for all the lovely stickers. They were really popular and I was very happy to add a few to my laptop, especially the "My Computer is not old" one 😀

    It was great to see some familiar and new faces and even some people from the fedi too 🙂


    Photo showing the lid of a laptop, which is filled with stickers. There are so many overlapping over each other that barely 10% of the laptop lid itself is visible. The newest / highest are an "I Love Free Software" and "This Computer is not old" stickers from the FSFE, as well as a sticker of the orange OMEMO fish logo. Other stickers include a couple of rows of NLnet hex stickers, Open Rights Group stickers on the laptop hinge, a variety of XMPP stickers including Monal, Conversations, XMPP network graph, big OpenStreetMap and FSF stickers, as well as sourceware and Software Freedom Conservancy stickers in the bottom left corner. Below these free software related stickers, some Formula 1 related stickers, with some helmets, race cars and team logos, can be barely seen peeking through.

    A close-up photo of the same laptop, focused on the FSFE's "This Computer is not old" sticker. It shows a retro-looking grey pop-up box on a blue background, which looks like it comes from a boot screen or non-graphical linux install. The title of the popup box is "fsfe.org". Inside, the box says: "This computer is not old, it is sustainable." There are two buttons at the bottom of the box, the left (selected) one says "OK" and the right one says "Cancel". Also visible in frame, surrounding/underneath the sticker, are the edges of an OpenStreetMap sticker, a McLaren F1 car sticker, a Phosh sticker, a GNU sticker and an IndyCar sticker.

      There will be a FOSS meetup on Saturday 8th August 2026 near Baker Street, called by Polarian!

      I hope to be there once I finish with work, probably a couple of hours after it starts.

      GLLUG post.

      It's not a reserved venue, so look for a table with lots of stickers, and Polarian wearing the EuroBSDCon 2024 (Dublin) tshirt (with artwork like this).

        We have a new venue: Canada Water Library, meeting room 1! That's 2 mins away from the original venue. I've edited the original post with the new location.
