Not in auckland, not reggae, too expensive!
I want to find a reggae band for a conference in Auckland in November. We don't have a lot of money, and we want to dance! Does anyone know anyone? #auckland #music #livemusic

Itβs your last chance to register at early bird prices for @foss4g.org
2025.foss4g.org/attend/regis...
There's 2 weeks left of early bird registrations for @foss4g.org and no more extensions.
We've got good registrations already and some great sponsors. And we have a great volunteer team (pic related).
So, register now as you'll regret missing out on a bargain later!

This little checkbox should be checked by default on all Git repositories on @github.com
Super useful not to need to clean up dead branches after a merge!
4.5 DAYS until early bird registration closes.

Also guess the units!
Made my own map. Why is the Australian Atlas providing distances in miles? Also, it doesn't have my fancy roads layer in the legend. So silly.
(Printing maps is very 1990s too!)
I want to complain about maps...
