spent way too many hours over the weekend getting @greatercanberra.bsky.social's paperwork in order ahead of our AGM later this month, but it's all worth it to keep our team doing what it's doing - we will have a few vacancies in the leadership team, DM me if you wanna get involved

@jamesh @glyph well that’s not ideal. Sigh

@jamesh @glyph we also don’t have the federalist society. I don’t think we have anyone trying to create that sort of ideology driven pipeline? No reason we couldn’t, mind you.

@sigkill @hacks4pancakes @martintheg yeah, as someone in Canberra, working in tech, I think that’s the right read on the situation here now. And all the best for the visa process, Australia will be better for having you.

@aurynn @Firesphere no we don’t (yet), sorry.

@yaakov yeah fair, although you can get Ubuntu and (iirc) RHEL images so if if not _common_, it’s at least not _obscure_

@yaakov s390x (IBM System Z mainframes) are still actively developed and supported

@ajd I didn’t save it, for better or worse

2024-08-07

@ajd so, so bad. Makes white boy rap look good

2024-08-07

@ajd that’s probably the wiser move
