Geek, husband, lover, software developer, Londoner. Not necessarily in that order.

he/him

Proud #GTK and #GNOME dev; member of the GNOME Foundation.

You may remember me for my work at OpenedHand, Intel, Endless, and the GNOME Foundation. Otherwise, you heard about me being a scary person on the Internet.

"One of the people responsible for the failure of the Linux desktop" according to a random YouTube user.

Opinions are always my own, but if you don't like them that's too bad.

The astroturfing of the fash was absurdly blatant: people with MAGA and Trump hats, a lot of them recording themselves into a phone; bunch of terfs shouting “something something biology”; lots of gammons pretty close to a heart attack or a liver failure by the looks of them

There were even a couple of Poundland Tate clones, one of them with a t-shirt that said “the new right”. Oh, honey: it’s the same old right. All in all, they must have been about 50 people, and we were at the very least a couple of hundreds (though very likely more)

That's more than when we were out (12 at most vs the same hundreds). The main obvious difference as ever is 'bussed in vs actual locals'.

@nedrichards Yeah, there were clearly a bunch of non-local people when they picked up stuff and moved out at the end. The fact that they managed to pick up numbers isn't great. We'll see next month…
