Dein Event braucht Geschirr und Besteck?
Kauf es einfach beim Ikea.
Kauf die 300 Teller einfach.
131kg Geschirr und Besteck ist kein Problem bei Click&collect.
Du wirst es nicht bereuen, 131kg Geschirr und Besteck beim Ikea gekauft zu haben.

Das größte Problem an Verteilersteckern ist ja, dass sie diskret sind. Zum Glück haben kluge Köpfe in Japan das Problem erkannt und eine Lösung gefunden, also zumindest für japanische Stecker.
Ich präsentiere: die kontinuierliche Verteilerleiste!

Inflatable tetrapods!
I might steal this idea and make one for myself to deploy at @hackmas@chaos.social 🤔

Also we arrived safely at the campsite. And let me tell you, blob found a lot of interesting things to do. Sat around in the trees, on posts and help with checking in the tickets.
And now I'm ready for the bed. 😴

Today we're escorting live-in vehicles on the site. A gentleman from Scotland saw us melting in the sun and offered us a nice cold drink.

Blob geht auf Reisen. Aber diesmal anders.

The train terminated earlier and was delayed so much that we missed the next train to Ledbury. Now at +90minutes. At least according to the GWR delay repay info this journey should be free. And blob is enjoying the additional time with AC in the train.

Need proper emergency exit signage hung up at @nullsector@social.emfcamp.org? Blob's got you covered.

Ein bisschen ein anderes Event aber Blob findet auch dieses Farbschema gut.

With the help of some power tools we built three additional misting frames. Now we only need to deploy them on the site.

Blob found some work at the construction team. And some amazing paint!

Wanna get to know blob more? Come to @hackmas@chaos.social in Austria in August!
We've put up some posters at the info boards to find out more.

Am @hackmas@chaos.social kümmere ich mich neben der Logistik, Möbeln, Müll und was sonst noch dazu gehört auch um Deko.
Aber wir können gar nicht so viel Deko machen, dass wir das Schloss und den riesigen Innenhof füllen.
Ich würde mich sehr freuen wenn da von euch noch mehr Kunst und andere Installationen kommen. Einfach unter stuff@hack-mas.at melden was ihr so mitbringen wollt und wir (ich?) planen das ein!
Und für alle anderen Einreichungen (Talks, Workshops, etc.) hier entlang: https://openki.hack-mas.at/

We're collecting the @GCHQNET@chaos.social hexpansions! Wandering around the campsite, looking for these things and discovering all kinds of other things is a lot of fun, can recommend!

Cute date idea: Dafür sorgen, dass die Gruppe Sofortmaßnahmen kommen muss. 🤔
Things that Vienna and Kaohsiung have in common? Both cities have the same metro train type. The ones for Kaohsiung were even built in Vienna! So far there's only 2 lines plus a tramway ring around the city. The transfer station "Formosa Boulevard" has an amazing installation called "Dome of Light".

Most tourists stop at the shop at the end of the sandstone plateau. But the path through the geopark continues uphill into a forest and bird watching area apparently. It's nice, quiet, a bit less hot and probably the first time I haven't heard any human made noise since we landed 3 days ago.
#TripToTaiwan
Skyscrapers and sunsets are a perfect combination. So today we went up Lotte World Tower and watched the sunset from nearly 500m above ground. Amazing views even though they could wash the windows more often.
Fun fact: this was the highest I've been inside a building, surpassing Taipei 101 by nearly 40m. Looking down on an observation tower that's on a mountain is... weird. And we've been now on the world's sixth and eleventh highest buildings within a few days.
#KTripSeoul
If it looks like a Shinkansen and sounds like a Shinkansen it probably is a Shinkansen?
The Taiwan HSR (High speed rail) has been operating between Taipei in the north and Kaohsiung in the south since 2007. And it uses Shinkansen 700 series rolling stock with small modifications for the Taiwanese climate and a slight speed increase.
#TripToTaiwan
So Kaohsiung also has a tram or LRT with a special feature! The tram runs without any overhead wire between the stations. Instead it charges its supercaps in each station and runs on the stored energy.
At least this makes the tracks look really neat without adding a lot of visual clutter. I wonder how smooth this system is in operation though.

@emnichtda @IngaLovinde yes! The rules by the public transport company should always be considered a challenge!
For sunset, we went up a hill in the west of Kaohsiung for a nice view of the skyline and the port.
#TripToTaiwan
The last two evenings in Kaohsiung I heard some weird music everywhere. Turns out, it's the garbage trucks. If they only could take this melody that's now stuck in my head with them, the same way they collect the trash...
But listen for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8G45uCa0Ic

By the way, to get up to the observatory, you can use the cable car. Beautiful view of Sapporo on the way up and now in spring you see the vegetation change as you go up.

@rooftopjaxx probably. As far as I know these were built by the same architect. So they are likely from the early seventies
