Do you plan on adding filterable tags to the ui? Rather than just metadata.


If I understand what you mean correctly, https://historio.us does that.


This is a special one, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the MIT Swapfest and the 30th anniversary of c-base's discovery.

September 28th 2025 12:00 to 17:00 at c-base


Update: https://bsky.app/profile/swapfest.berlin

We’ll be using this microsite for now for updates, but will likely spin up a bluesky account for the swapfest!


It’s mainly to figure out how many people are coming!

We have limited space at c-base and I want to be respectful of their fire code!


Sounds reasonable, especially for the first time such an event is held.


That makes sense. Where I live the large flea markets always have 1 or 2 local cops, and maybe a fireman to handle any emergency.


the berlin hackerspace scene would not allow police at their events


That’s where I got the idea! I was blown away at how cool that event was, I emailed with their team to get some tips for it as well.

The coolest part was someone brought a Gemini lander to sell!


Thanks!

Yeah c-base crew was incredibly adamant about that, they used to have people leaving stuff there or bringing them electronics, they’ve got closets of switches.

As you said the deposit will handle it, worst case if someone brings a 19” rack that will be used to bring it to the tip


That was our designers idea! Will pass on the nice words. Also will try to have someone taking photos to document it.

Our event person at c-base ligi also suggested to idea of having a small show and tell time permitting for really cool items that have a story to them.


I’m an English native with A2 German at best and have no troubles there!

A majority of events are in English there, one tonight was all in English as well.


Awesome, thanks!


y’all really need to open source that racking modeling tool, that would save sooooo many people so much time


Not OSS but I have developed a tool for modeling racks and much more.

Seems text color is driven by light / dark mode at the OS level, but the background color is not.
