I am hosting another fediverse talky eventy thingy in September and already have two people presenting awesome things, so now my question is still do I keep using the stupidly long name Berlin Federated Network Exploration Circle aka BeFeNeEC (pronounced beef neck or beefy niece or bifi nice or...) Or come up with a new name for the event. I think this will be the 5th edition?

@tbernard do you have any regrets about the name Boiling the Ocean? It has a nice ring to it, and it's memorable so it seems to work as a name quite well.

@liaizon we got one or two weird comments from the usual mastodon reply guys but overall, no regrets :)

@tbernard if you don't get any weird comments from the reply guys do you even exist?

Yeah I am gonna orga this thing at night on the last day of fediday (I think it ends at 14 and the thing I will do will be a few hours later at night in a different part of town, was not planned, there's just some folks in town who I wanted to get talk to anyway so it worked out like that
ctalx.c-base.orgSciOp and decentralized research data rescue FediDay 2026SciOp is an open source project aiming to decentralize research data hosting through BitTorrent and ActivityPub, so that the distribution and long-term archival of endangered research data sets can be shared between institutions and individual volunteers. In this presentation, we will show how SciOp is planning to use ActivityPub to coordinate between instances and to interact with the fediverse at large. It turns out that ActivityPub can be more than just social networking.Replying to @liaizon@wake.st
@liaizon Thank you! 🙂 FediDay ends at 4pm on the 13th. If your thing is that same evening I can probably join as a visitor if I'm welcome! I booked my return train to Munich for the 14th because the return trip would have been too late on the 13th.
