had a great hangout with @courtney today - we decided that we should definitely have a #PDX Fediverse meetup while we can still do it in a park!

Location Ideas:
- Laurelhurst Park
- Irving Park
- North Park Blocks
- plz suggest more if you like!

Day ideas:
Sept 5/6/7
Sept 12/13/14
Sept 20

Timing Ideas:
4, 5 or 6p if a Friday
11, 1, or 3p if Sat/Sun ( I can't do the earlier 2 on the 13)

Let's narrow ideas and then make some polls to decide!

OryCon 45 Oct. 17-19, 2025 at the Doubletree Hotel near Lloyd Center in NE #Portland will be the last of its name & format. It's time, actually past time, for new folks with new ideas to run something else.

If you once attended or never came to an OryCon but want to be involved in the last one or a future endeavor in metro #Portland this is your chance.

We're also looking for photos from past OryCons to share & those can be sent to memories@orycon.org. #pdx #sfconventions

Kinda last minute but I'll be heading to PLUG's Clinic this afternoon at Willamette University (in #pdx), if anyone wants to try installing Linux on anything we support[1] in #postmarketOS 😛

I'm close to giving up on recording my guitar on my computer. Anyone in/near Portland (accessible to public transit if I have to come to you) who can either:
- let me borrow their home studio (it doesn't have to be a good one, the bar right now is "can record an electric guitar")
- help me set up a sound system that works on Debian with Ardour and an MBox2?
The latter could theoretically be done remotely too, it'll just be more difficult because Linux confuse me
