Hello @stanfan.bsky.social (after a @camraofficial.bsky.social GM Area Meeting)

Sean O'Mahoney (He/Him) | @Sean12697 @seanomahoney.com · Sep 7

Day two in Dubai and I wandered into a souq that felt like a game's developer / environment designer rushed to meet a deadline, three shop templates on repeat with random loot drops: spices, cashmere, and crystals.

🚴‍♂️ First time smashing out 23 miles non-stop in my 5 years of cycling!

Huge thanks to Jack at Balance Cycle Club for organising, Will from @balancebrew.bsky.social, and the rest of the crew for making sure I didn’t get left behind.

Final thought: fuck sand.

Although the @obsidian.md Bases core plug-in adds similar object functionality 🤔

Obsidian @obsidian.md · May 21

Introducing Bases, a new core plugin that lets you turn any set of notes into a powerful database. With Bases you can organize everything from projects to travel plans, reading lists, and more.

Bases are now available in Obsidian 1.9.0 for early access users.

I'm seriously considering switching from @obsidian.md to AnyType.

I prefer its object-oriented design, and the fact that it's fully open-source with a security-first approach makes it even more appealing, unlike Obsidian, which isn't fully FOSS

anytype.io

anytype — the everything app

for those who celebrate trust & autonomy.

... I'm not surprised 😂 they had a number of beers at the beer festival, unfortunately only one left on the Saturday I believe when I turned up to do Membership.

Far too early to be waiting for the 1st of 3 trains to London for a @camraofficial.bsky.social MV&E Committee Meeting (formerly People Committee).

Had to grab a train beer for later on—went for a low ABV one from Poland’s Tea Time Brewery, who kindly left us some cans @skbeerfestival.bsky.social!

Thanks for the tag, Steve!

I wrote this blog post about running a uni Welcome Week campaign for @camraofficial.bsky.social in Greater Manchester last year @totalcurtis.bsky.social.

Found that UoM used to have a Craft Beer Society, but that was about it!

*apparently* I need 10 tickets + the receipt ticket to travel to London 👀

(tbf I'm changing at Crewe and made a bike reservation just in case, which need tickets in themselves)

Sean O'Mahoney (He/Him) | @Sean12697 @seanomahoney.com · Jan 25

Off to London for an in-person @camraofficial.bsky.social People’s Committee meeting!

Time to terrorize the southerners with my northern friendliness and mornings.

Every song on the #HazbinHotel soundtrack slaps, some a lot more than others, but the songs from #HelluvaBoss with Stolas are just 🤌😘

I'm absolutely hooked on Mastermind, You Will Be Okay & Look My Way atm 🎧 🎶

Indeed I am! Meeting a few friends for NYE and trying to enjoy some interesting beers along the way.

Currently at Weena with them, but I couldn’t resist grabbing this gem from their special menu while I waited for them to arrive! 🍻

Who even spells Central like that? 👀
