What are we up to for today? What makes nerds get up early? Some journey ahead ...

Changing trains in Madeburg, having a snack, enjoying the sun.

Train staff didn't accept us presenting our digital ticket on ebook reader 🙄 - they are not allowed to scan arbitrary QR codes without "verifying where they are coming from".

Luckily enough, #PassAndroid was fine for them, because "some app" is apparently okay..

WiFi is working - and so are we.

A new piece of baggage has joined us. Makes for happy sysadmins - which you can see in the image when you look close enough.

Waiting for the train ... we have all we need for "holidays" 😉

(posted a little late, because the train had bad WiFi)

Checking the connections in a café, thanks to Öffi!

To answer the initial question: This is what makes us nerds happy (in case you didn't expect an answer like this). An interesting experiment for us, too.

What this means in the long run for Codeberg? We're finally - thanks to the expertise and help of some volunteers - ready to expand our hardware infrastructure, making Codeberg more resilient to certain kinds of issues and improving availability in the long run.

@Codeberg That fire extinguisher tells a story in this picture.
