  7. Hi #bostonweekend crowd! Sunday Sunday Sunday! Come to #bostodon - the #boston #fediverse #meetup - 4/19 noon at the Flea at MIT - #swapfest - Albany Street Garage - print out a flyer for a dollar off entry - come early for bargains at the swap or just gawk the weirdo items on offer. Or skip it and meet us outside the entry gate for the Flea at noon - look for the crowd of people that look like #mastodon users, food after, rain or shine. (: w1mx.mit.edu/flea-at-mit/

  8. @nervous_jessica oh hey, if you're in town this Sunday, consider coming to the #bostodon meetup at #Swapfest! Or at least hit swapfest, its fascinating.

  9. @jeffluszcz Hmm, last time we sort of organically mustered across from the entry-table, in the garage but outside the paid area, hung around chatting for 20 minutes or so, and then wandered next door to Area Four Pizza, snagged outdoor seating there.

    Open to suggestions for better process or venue - weather looks like rain, welcome suggestions for nearby accessible & covered outdoor seating. #bostodon

  10. #BostonWeekend Let's meetup! On Sunday 4/19 at noon is #Bostodon meetup at #Swapfest/#MITFlea in #CambridgeMA - Are you in? Get there early and buy the best weird tech finds of the year.

    #Boston area folks, follow the #Bostodon tag and please boost. #swapfest #MITFlea #MIT

  11. #BostonWeekend - well, that sure was the weekend. Had a real lovely bike ride & got some projects moved fwd - what did you get up to?
    Hope you are in good spirits and health, and got to enjoy spring here in #NewEngland (and Passover/Easter if you celebrate) - rain makes the flowers grow - Maybe we'll see you at #bostodon on 4/19 - enjoy, enjoy!

  12. If you're looking for something to do in Boston tonight, my band UBYOU are rocking out at the Middle East upstairs! Doors open 7pm, $12, 18+. #bostodon #boston

  13. @rednikki @trisweb @c_dan4th average fedi user meets 3 fedi users a year" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person meets 0 fedi users per year. #Bostodon Georg, who lives in cave & meets over 10,000 fedi users each #meetup, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

  14. I'm going to be at #PAXEast this coming Thursday (26 March)! I'm not much for the enormous booths and hour-long lines, but I love all the smaller developer tables, the panels and presentations, and the general spectacle of it all.

    Also all the #3DS #StreetPass hits.

    If anyone else is attending and wants to say hi in person, let me know.

    #Bostodon #BostonWeekend #WearAMask

  15. @c_dan4th I’m in 10+ bracket as I focus on building local community with my account by doing a weekly events thread called #BostonWeekend.
    You can meet more local mutuals by throwing an irl meetup! It’s easy and still legal, post to your closest city’s tag and get the ball rolling. I’m organizing #bostodon for eastern #masssachusetts on 4/19, come!

  16. I'm sure I'm missing something this week. Its Spring, y'all! I hope to get out a bit more with the warm weather. April 19th, #Bostodon meetup at #MITFlea - mark your calendar! #BostonWeekend

  17. Well, that sure was a #BostonWeekend. Did you end up getting out and about? Happy Sleep Deprivation Monday. Mark your calendar for #bostodon on 19 April in #CambridgeMA - if masto folks want to meet up sooner, #PAXEast starts 26 Mar in #Boston's Seaport.

  18. Idea: I'm aiming to run a #bostodon meetup april 19th, tailing onto the start of the #Swapfest season.

    Do folks want to have a Boston #Mastodon meetup before that? Anything Big and hella nerdy going on that we could tack on to?

    Like, #Boskone (SF con @ #seaport) this weekend or something. #PAXEast is in late March, maybe?

  19. I took off one side to see whether the blown capacitor would be accessible. It is not, at least not without a nearly complete disassembly.

    My relative says it should go to someone who would want it. No charge, and I can meet you in the greater #Boston area. If you've been looking for a retro #camcorder, and don't mind doing the repairs, it's yours.

    Please boost if you like.
