After staring at a problem in the house for over a year I finally realised the answer is simple: Buy more tools.

Defying predictions I just rode the danger triangle bike through London and didn't have a horrifying accident

Convinced that home assistant is a covert operation to sabotage productivity of people who would otherwise spend weekends inventing things

Well this is the weirdest scam email I've had in a while

Incredible that valve looked at every other console and went "nah, players don't need a way to distinguish between multiple connected controllers". Tell me you live on your own without telling me you live on your own.

The most middle-class littering I have ever seen: Someone abandoned a book about Picasso on our front gate.

Extremely useful tool. Marvellous.

Google Earth, a tool often used as a source of satellite imagery to verify photos and videos, has added a feature that allows you to alter satellite imagery with AI, for reasons. blog.google/products-and...

A friend gave me a virtual card for their experimental bank with no credit limit and I would like it on the record that I did not buy a hovercraft or any form of lighter than air transport

It seems today is the date I deferred all my email to and I am displeased

I spy with my satellite eye, something beginning with E. planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/explore?c=-2... #emfcamp

Just bought another lidar. I need one stuck in the middle of my monitor.

Would anyone like a sticker because I made way too many stickers

I have never, ever seen the EMF team this energised so soon after the event. People are already seriously planning 2028. Slightly terrified. Mostly in awe. #emfcamp

I got back from the site at 9pm last night. I am hacking on the EMF scheduler, adding features for 2028. What is going on. This has never happened before.

People keep saying incredibly nice things and I am so tired I don't know how to handle it

Suddenly realised we somehow managed to build and staff a tiny electronic music jam club and a planetarium and turned the planetarium into an arts venue with a full lineup of custom content ...in the two weeks before the event opened. And they were SO GOOD. #emfcamp

Have been informed that someone did a 15 minute livecode music set entirely made from an airhorn sound, accompanied by live Microsoft Paint visuals. I find it hard to explain what the festival we run is about, and may it get ever more difficult to describe. #emfcamp

Re-entry into the real world is always a shock

We apologise for the incorrect forecast. There were a lot more spiders than this.

Our environmental data feeds from @emfcamp.bsky.social are now live, this is the spider forecast for next weekend

Just been informed that the #emfcamp closing ceremony was broadcast via satellite TV across Asia and some of Europe, so that happened.

Someone gave me an appropriate sign for the bike #emfcamp

I am so very tired but utter nonsense like this makes it worthwhile

This (tomorrow) promises to be an epochal event at #emfcamp.

Right. Now I can stop stressing about writing the opening ceremony. And start stressing about writing the closing ceremony. #emfcamp

Sat working alone in EMF HQ and smashed play on my keyboard. Apple Music opens, an app I never use, and it played seemingly the only thing in my music library - A recording of the Lincolnshire Poacher numbers station. Perfect.

You'd think after all this time and planning 3000 people showing up in your field wouldn't be a surprise but

The problem with getting well known and operating public channels online is that you are now well known and operating public channels online

Has anyone ever made a videogame where events that happen are communicated by NPCs telling each other about them, but it's like normal rumours so each time the knowledge is passed on it gets distorted and if you end up talking to the 23rd one in the chain Zelda is at the spa having a lovely time

In case you're still looking for an #emfcamp ticket there are a bunch listed on the ticket exchange: www.emfcamp.org/wiki/ticket-...

At that point where all you can really do is issue minor course corrections and hang on tight
