For those who are curious about what powers streaming from FOSDEM, here are some docs on those [FOSDEM boxes](https://github.com/FOSDEM/video-hardware)
The queue for the Belgian Fries truck is always longest;-)
The fact that you can't catch talks unless you camp in the room is a consequence.
I don't think it's too big, just uncurated and not very accessible. Everyone is there to talk to their own circles.
>Treasure hunters, we have an update! Unfortunately, some of our signs have been removed or stolen, but don’t worry—the hunt is still on!
Amuses me. I like to imagine it's black hat treasure hunters trying to hamstring the competition, but I know it's probably the cleaning staff.
The mic in the room isn‘t working (and I find the room too warm), so I have given up. But maybe they are recording a separate audio track using a smartphone or so for later post-processing, so the videos will be good?
I feel somewhat badly being negative but probably not my thing any longer. I'm very selective about the events I attend and there are probably other ones I prioritize.
Anyway, my only regret was not able to stay longer to meet other contributors due to my trains constraints. I didn't plan anything, I need to do better.
I have liked FOSDEM in the past. But, as I say, it's gotten pretty big and crowded and some other events in Europe that have been timed to coincide with it aren't of as much interest to me these days.
