If there was an Interim Camping Event organised around Open Source Hardware Camp 2026, would you be interested?
OSHCamp is at Hebden Bridge on 29th and 30th August - https://oshug.org/event/oshcamp2026
The campsite shown (indicative example!) has a pub and, unexpectedly, a sauna...

#emfcamp was excellent. Didn't go to any talks or workshops, just chats, meetups, dancing, puzzles, volunteering, and wandering admiring the art. Huge thanks to everyone who made it happen ❤️
Maybe see some of you in 6 weeks for #OSHCamp? https://

At the weekend I went to Hebden Bridge for the #WutheringBytes festival including #OSHCamp.
On Saturday I gave a talk about dye sublimation printing on to PCBs. Most of that talk was from this blog I wrote last year https://rc2014.co.uk/2293/dye-sublimation-printing-on-pcbs-for-rc2014-pride/
On Sunday I ran a workshop where people could design their own artwork to go on to a PCB. This could then be assembled in to an electronic dice. If anybody is interested the files for the workshop are here https://rc2014.co.uk/OSHCamp2024/

@concretedog It feels like I have got my revenge after buying a vinyl cutter after last years #OSHCamp which I slightly blame you for ;-)

I appear to have just bought a 2nd hand heat press... I slightly blame @semachthemonkey for his talk at #OSHcamp but I also have seen some interesting plastic recycling stuff done with em so felt I should own one!

I had hoped – and really wanted – to be at Wuthering Bytes / Open Source Hardware Camp this weekend, but didn’t get that sorted out because of Reasons.
So, I spent today doing various other things instead.
- I’ve been invited to a couple of events that are arranged using Gathio recently. Gathio has support for ActivityPub federation (there’s an ActivityStreams type for an Event, so this is all another piece of how the fediverse can be used to follow and participate in a broad range of activities). I noticed that there’s a new documentation site for Gathio, but certain links and messages still point to the project’s now-discontinued wiki, so I sent a pull request to fix those.
- I’ve been playing a bit with Picotron, a fantasy virtual workstation from the folks that also make the PICO-8 virtual retro gaming system. I’ll probably write a bit more deeply on that sometime soon (I hope / if I get around to it).
- Our elderly neighbour asked me to go in to help with some issues with her email. It turned out that Microsoft has completely turned off the old DeltaSync service that her mail client had been set up with (the clue was a 404 error which was part of the otherwise incomprehensible message from her computer), so I reconfigured things to avoid going near Outlook / Live Mail – there was absolutely no way she would have been able to work any of that out. Really, I would like to refresh her machine with a nice clean and fast Linux distribution, but she’s older and very used to how things currently work, so I tried to keep the changes to a minimum.
- I learned that CloudHiker is a thing. Many rabbit holes to investigate.
- I tried out a few different Wayland compositors on the Pocket Reform. wlmaker is interesting – old-style WindowMaker but on Wayland (although I don’t think it supports rotation yet, which is a deal-breaker for now). I also tried hyprland, but couldn’t get it to display anything – the debug log checked out but the display was black. I’m not too bothered as I’m aware of certain issues with that project. The author of
cpufetchhas a patch ready that adds support for the CPU module that the Pocket Reform uses, I tested that today as well. I spotted a couple of config improvements that we can make in the default Pocket Reform image, so I’ll aim to submit merge requests on those. I posted some wallpapers to the community forum. - I quickly made a Fediwall to aggregate conversations about #OSHCamp, since I was missing out!
- The great folks at WeDistribute have made an Events hub for Fediverse (and adjacent) events, which is excellent. I spotted there’s an ATProto talk in London on Tuesday, and I intend to get along to that. They also posted an interesting piece on Flohmarkt, a marketplace instance with Fediverse compatibility. So much interesting development lately.
- Caught up-to-date on The Repair Shop.
Tomorrow: a Makeroni meetup in Wimbledon.
(Bank Holiday) Monday: Hampton Court Food Festival.

@andypiper i don't know if it's because the socials have distributed themselves, but it feels a lot quieter on the old hashtags #oshcamp

Great to hear about @rc2014's mashing up of PCB manufacturing with dye sublimation printing to get custom colourways

Super interesting insight into how you scale up manufacturing, at the this-is-how-you-describe-steps-to-your-manufacturing-partner level, in the first talk at #OSHcamp

Abandoning idea of going to #OSHCamp / #WutheringBytes. One year, I'll actually make it there...

@andypiper hehe, true! Sadly I'm not going to make it to that one. Hopefully see you at #OSHCamp if you make it along (the Wuthering Bytes festival day the day before is also very good, but they haven't released tickets for that yet)

I see the schedule for #OSHCamp has been announced and, more importantly, the tickets are on sale!
