Any #UK folks got a GPU they would like to get rid of?

It's for my super old tower I got from the free shop at #emfcamp. I'm having random graphics crashes that I'm unable to get to the bottom of and it wanted to see if it was the GPU.

Can be quite old. Just needs to work flawlessly under Linux. Just for everyday desktop stuff, no gaming.

Now, let's see what the #BBCMicro #DomesdayProject has to say about #Bodgeham. Wow, there's even an entry for the Village Fête! I love these submissions written by the local school kids... #EMFCamp #Tetrapod #Awoo #Beep

Screenshot of an entry from the Domesday Project, shown in the browser based emulator. The text reads:

"Bodgeham-on-Wye is a village in the civil parish of Hackerly in Herefordshire, England, near the border with Wales, next to the Eastnor Deer Park. My dad says Bodgeham is best known for its biannual village fete, started in the ancient times before Jan 1st 70. I think that's a "Dad Joke"? My friend Maia went and they loved it. Maia came back with a little plush shark that the shark people showed them how to make, and got to hang out with something called a "furry". Maia says "Awoo!" to the furries, even the ones with the spicy rocks, and "Beep!" to the otherkin. I don't know what that means. Also Mr Wareing said the tetXXpod ritual is incredible, but I think he might have eaten too many crumpets. I'm very tired now, bye."

The XX letters above indicate the position of the cursor in the screenshot, which unfortunately covers up the word from the Domesday Project database. All we know is that it starts with "tet" and ends with "pod". Hmm, very mysterious. Also the toolbar badger appears to have gone missing. Has anyone seen them? — Screenshot of an entry from the Domesday Project, shown in the browser based emulator.

New year rings in.
10 year old: "It's 2026!"
8 year old: gasp! "It's an #EMFCamp year"
Nice to know the priorities for the year.

My first two talks/lectures for 2026 are in the diary :)

January: Online Safety Act, at FOSDEM

February: Investigatory Powers Act 2016, in London

I'd like to do a couple of talks to computer science / computer engineering students (although law students are fine too), but I've not sorted anything yet.

Leaving my bunker to commune with other weird nerds for a couple of days, so of course there are stickers...

#TetrapodCult #EMFCamp #Spider

Photo showing several stickers, and something else, on a blue craft mat. One socket has a picture of several DIY plush tetrapods on a table in an outdoor setting with the title "there is no tetrapod cult". There is also a "no tetrapods" road sign style sticker showing an OpenSCAD tetrapod model behind a red circle with a line across it. Also a sticker advertising some event calling itself Excitable Magnetosphere Fiesta 2026, which appears to include copious lasers and (if you look really closely) giant tetrapods, with a warning sign featuring a cartoon spider. Finally, a small squishy emotional support tetrapod that has been 3D printed in flexible filament.

As we stumble into the next #EMFCamp cycle, I've written something that might be of interest to EMFers who plan to make something microcontroller-based for next summer:

Wait, what's this #BBCMicro #DomesdayProject page about a #BodgehamBadger? Now the crumpet proliferation is starting to make some kind of sense... #EMFCamp #CrumpetCamp
