Anyone needs a European Sleeper night train ticket from Brussels to Berlin for tomorrow Wednesday the 4th of February? I cannot take the train, I can't cancel the ticket but it's transferable.
Something something tells me there's this rule on fedi: new account, new #introduction post. So here it is.
I'm Mimi/小秋 (You can call me anything you like, really.) Physicist by day (and night in practice), doing research on some of the most useless and abstract topics. #danmei writer by night, rotten to the core for nearly 30 years.
What's up with this funny display name, you ask? It's a play on an exercise problem ("is Tolkien's middle earth flat"), which I came across in a textbook on general relativity. And Reverse London is from the Bleach franchise.
I'm here mostly to relax, talk about my mundane life, generate highly unpopular opinions about things I read/watch/listen to, and emoji react to cute, funny, and silly stuffs that show up on my timeline.
Follow requests and #boosts are both welcome, although I do prefer to have a bit of vibe checking.
I have this still unspecific idea in my head about somehow applying a coordinate system on the ULB campus and #FOSDEM maps (or something) to help us deal with "let's meet at..." problems once and for all.
@kytta @Tenzer In addition to what3words you would at least also need the floor level when inside a building. Also GNSS do not work that well inside buildings for navigation. Something like "in front of room X" usually works way better than coordinates.
@raimue @kytta @Tenzer several rooms have multiple doors and there are many hundred persons. "outside a room" is not very precise. You need to find a small enough room for that to work decently fine. Which is somewhat hard and annoying, especially if you are a newbie and aren't quite aware of this.
If you have any feedback about #fosdem please do send it our way using feedback@fosdem.org
The more feedback we have (can def be positive as well obv) the better we can make the next edition!
Please :boost_ok:
