Hey MUUG folks,

My latest project has been organizing an event at our local
hackerspace Skullspace this upcoming weekend
(with online participation options as well)

It's a weekend festival that includes a movie night, talks, a DJ
evening and a chill out day with exhibits and gaming.

I don't have any talks that are about unix-like systems specifically,
but I am happy to report that I will be running my live streams using
GNU/Linux and obs-studio.

One interesting problem I solved recently was figuring out how to
incorporate live footage from a Go Pro Hero 9 into my live stream. My
recent notes on this are a github gist at

Another free/libre/open-source software angle is that I'm planning to
host a game of Pioneers, a computer clone of the board game Catan.
(one of the elements with remote participation) The Pioneers client
and server are packed by many GNU/Linux distros.

So, again, more info at https://hax.skullspace.ca

Our building door may or may not be locked at certain times. If it's
open, come up 1.5 flights of stairs to the 2nd floor. If the building
door is closed, push the small white buzzer labeled "sksp" and wait
for someone to come down.
