I'll be there! by sevenofk9 (Fri 4th Jan 2019 11:23am)

It's here [https://www.reddit.com/r/glasgow/comments/abuyuy/meetup/](https://www.reddit.com/r/glasgow/comments/abuyuy/meetup/) by sevenofk9 (Fri 4th Jan 2019 11:46am)

You'll be fine. There will be 15+ people there tomorrow, we'll be upstairs wearing geeky tshirts, and we'll be looking out for people looking lost. You can talk to some of the people who'll be there tomorrow (and who have been at the last couple of meetups) here: [https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/guest/](https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/guest/) by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Jan 2019 4:30pm)

Yup by sevenofk9 (Fri 25th Jan 2019 1:23pm)

Ye didnae turn up by sevenofk9 (Fri 25th Jan 2019 9:51pm)

Sorry the environment was too difficult for you, hopefully the next event will be somewhere more amenable. by sevenofk9 (Fri 25th Jan 2019 10:44pm)

'twas a fun night! To the people I ranted to about IRC, here is the link: [https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/](https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/) It's the future! :) by sevenofk9 (Sat 26th Jan 2019 10:03am)

Pah, who unsticked the post on the night? Anyway.. for those I was ranting to about IRC, here is the link: [https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/](https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/) 'twas a fun night! Hope to see some of you on the chat. Hack the planet! :) by sevenofk9 (Sat 26th Jan 2019 10:06am)

I’m hungover and on a plane, ugh! But ‘twas good to meet you all, hopefully see you at the next one soon! For those of you I was talking to about IRC, here’s the link, give us a visit and stay around, we organise some last minute night outs there. https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/ by sevenofk9 (Sat 26th Jan 2019 2:39pm)

That's mainly for drones heavier than 7kg. by sevenofk9 (Fri 15th Feb 2019 9:46am)

Bon Accord, 9pm? &#x200B; [https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/guest/](https://irc.armchairscientist.co.uk/guest/) by sevenofk9 (Fri 15th Feb 2019 6:49pm)

He suggested tomorrow, not sure if that's a definite, I'll be in Bon tomorrow at 8 regardless :) by sevenofk9 (Fri 15th Feb 2019 11:23pm)

I work just next door - I could be persuaded to take a wander around. When you thinking? by sevenofk9 (Tue 7th May 2019 9:14am)

Cool - it'd just be on my lunch break though, would need to get back to the office - if that's okay with you I could meet you on Thursday at 12:30 for an hour or so? Anybody else work/live nearby? by sevenofk9 (Tue 7th May 2019 9:56am)

Haven't heard back from OP, but I'm committed now. I'll head to Botanics at 12:30 on Thursday and stand awkwardly at the doors for a bit reading on my phone - let's see if we can find each other :) by sevenofk9 (Tue 7th May 2019 5:26pm)

Paging u/hicomputerquestions and u/flimsynegotiation and u/hnwitch and u/amsterdamdorito and u/gregoriothomassoni and u/c-dawg18 \- think that's everyone that was close to a 'yes'.. &#x200B; Let's make this happen :) &#x200B; I'm gonna be at Botanics main entrance (inside the park, outside the main white glass building) at 12:30 today. I'll be wearing a dark blue jumper. I'll be looking out for anyone that looks a bit lost :P Follow me on [https://glasgow.social/](https://glasgow.social/) if you can't find me. by sevenofk9 (Thu 9th May 2019 9:43am)

I'm mostly into science/tech meetups, so here are some that I go to reguarly, off the top of my head. Happy to give more details if anybody is interested in any of these: &#x200B; [http://glasgowskeptics.com/](http://glasgowskeptics.com/) \- Glasgow skeptics in the pub [http://glasgow.social](http://glasgow.social) \- decentralised social networking [https://www.meetup.com/The-Glasgow-Geeks/](https://www.meetup.com/The-Glasgow-Geeks/) \- Glasgow Geeks Social meetup [https://rookieoven.com/](https://rookieoven.com/) \- tech and business startup meets [http://royalphil.org/](http://royalphil.org/) \- Royal Philosophical society public talks [https://www.gla.ac.uk/events/cafescientifique/](https://www.gla.ac.uk/events/cafescientifique/) \- Cafe Scientifique [https://scotlug.org.uk/](https://scotlug.org.uk/) \- Scottish Linux Users Group by sevenofk9 (Sat 18th May 2019 5:59pm)

This is the next event: [https://www.gla.ac.uk/events/cafescientifique/events/theinterplayofscienceandartsinourperceptionsoftheworld/](https://www.gla.ac.uk/events/cafescientifique/events/theinterplayofscienceandartsinourperceptionsoftheworld/) &#x200B; The whole idea behind Cafe Sci is giving the public a chance to speak to experts in their field. There'll be a short talk (they generally discourage slides/presentations - it's just an off-the-cuff talk) and then the floor is opened for questions/discussion. &#x200B; Previous talks have been on all sorts of subjects from bird flu to nanotech. by sevenofk9 (Sat 18th May 2019 9:38pm)

Yeah, same place as last year I'd say - we had around 20+ there. I'll make a post. by sevenofk9 (Sun 19th May 2019 1:14am)

This [https://www.vanguardcentre.com/](https://www.vanguardcentre.com/) was posted yesterday in the [https://www.reddit.com/r/glasgow/comments/bq618o/suggest\_some\_hobby\_groupclubs\_i\_may\_not\_have/](https://www.reddit.com/r/glasgow/comments/bq618o/suggest_some_hobby_groupclubs_i_may_not_have/) thread by sevenofk9 (Mon 20th May 2019 3:31pm)

No, usually in Waterstones on Sauchiehall Street, used to meet in Tron bar. The Skeptics is held in The Admiral though. by sevenofk9 (Thu 23rd May 2019 1:42pm)

There is usually an after party at mine, but some people head off to a club instead/too. by sevenofk9 (Sat 25th May 2019 4:42pm)

Ain't no rules about being active to attend the meetup. Anybody is welcome. by sevenofk9 (Thu 30th May 2019 12:48am)

Of course, the more the merrier. Take a look at [https://glasgow.social](https://glasgow.social) if you'd like to hear about some other events we're doing beforehand. All welcome. by sevenofk9 (Mon 3rd Jun 2019 4:35am)

Not at all, we'll have some signs on the table and pinned up on the nearby walls (the wee reddit alien logo). I'll also post a photo/description here of where we are exactly. by sevenofk9 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 11:32am)

There is one in Munro's on Great Western Road that's pretty decent. by sevenofk9 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 3:33pm)

Double sided bar with low seating. Could be Bunker on Bath Street. Not sure though. by sevenofk9 (Tue 11th Jun 2019 11:53pm)

You aren't wrong about the Evening Times website. 21Mb downloaded trying to view that page. FFS it should be 0.5Mb max. by sevenofk9 (Wed 12th Jun 2019 4:49pm)

Give what a try? by sevenofk9 (Thu 13th Jun 2019 3:09pm)

No, it's a decentralised social media. Like open source Twitter. A better way to organise/catchup compared to Facebook. by sevenofk9 (Fri 14th Jun 2019 11:07am)

You'd be very welcome to join and have something non-alcoholic. by sevenofk9 (Mon 17th Jun 2019 9:49am)

There's a creepy looking one at Mitchell Library - half exposed skeleton/organs. by sevenofk9 (Mon 17th Jun 2019 10:23am)

Well, say hello - I'll talk to ya :) by sevenofk9 (Mon 17th Jun 2019 8:56pm)

No, nothing needed. Yep, there are plug sockets and wifi in the bar. by sevenofk9 (Wed 19th Jun 2019 9:33am)

Yep, it's free! by sevenofk9 (Wed 19th Jun 2019 9:33am)

Ha, I remember that nick from the IRC :) Sure, by sevenofk9 (Wed 19th Jun 2019 11:49am)

Also, check out Defcon, they meet in on the first Tuesday of the month in The Griffin, the only seem to have a twitter presence though: [https://twitter.com/dc44141](https://twitter.com/dc44141) by sevenofk9 (Wed 19th Jun 2019 11:53am)

I might not have time to be at central before the meeting on Saturday (gotta be in the west end in the afternoon then early to the meeting) but feel free to PM me when you are on your way and I can look out for you! by sevenofk9 (Wed 19th Jun 2019 2:35pm)

Of course, you'd be very welcome! This is what these meetups are all about. See you on Saturday! &#x200B; [Hengler's Circus website](https://www.jdwetherspoon.com/pubs/all-pubs/scotland/glasgow/the-henglers-circus-glasgow) by sevenofk9 (Thu 20th Jun 2019 5:27pm)

We’re here. Left as you walk in, then down to the back wall. by sevenofk9 (Sat 22nd Jun 2019 6:44pm)

24 of us so far. We’re here all night if anybody is havering :) by sevenofk9 (Sat 22nd Jun 2019 9:11pm)

It was good to meet you! We didn’t really get a chance to get a group shot, but there are a couple photos: https://glasgow.social/tags/redditmeetup This is a link to “the sheet” 😝 https://starflyer.armchairscientist.co.uk/data/reddit/2019-meetup.php by sevenofk9 (Sun 23rd Jun 2019 11:00am)

Aww, I'm stuck in work, otherwise that'd be nice! &#x200B; Maybe come join us this Friday if you're free! 7pm at Dram, Woodlands Road. [https://glasgow.social/tags/geeksocial](https://glasgow.social/tags/geeksocial) by sevenofk9 (Tue 25th Jun 2019 1:53pm)

No worries, we'll be in Dram all night, enjoy the D&D! by sevenofk9 (Thu 27th Jun 2019 1:10pm)

Queuing like a post office is the optimal strategy for everybody to be served quickly, fairly and efficiently. Don't you know :) by sevenofk9 (Wed 24th Jul 2019 1:19pm)

Poundland, at the camping bit. by sevenofk9 (Thu 15th Aug 2019 8:59am)

There's a "Getting started - web programming from scratch in PHP" workshop that runs every month designed for complete beginners. Depending on what she wants to learn exactly, it might be worth taking a look. There is a meetup event for it here: [https://www.meetup.com/Glasgow-Coding-Meetup/events/264243506/](https://www.meetup.com/Glasgow-Coding-Meetup/events/264243506/) by sevenofk9 (Fri 23rd Aug 2019 1:19pm)

Cheers! Early days. by sevenofk9 (Thu 29th Aug 2019 9:54am)

Great, thanks! Added them now. I have a separate page for meetups - there are so many, I guess I should try to combine them into their relevant categories too. by sevenofk9 (Thu 29th Aug 2019 9:58am)

Thanks! I thought it would be good to see the URLs, but on the otherhand I think you're right. I've updated them now. by sevenofk9 (Thu 29th Aug 2019 9:55am)

Great, thanks! I've added those, yep can see subcategories becoming important soon! by sevenofk9 (Thu 29th Aug 2019 10:01am)

Thanks, sure, added now! You inspired me to follow a bunch of links from your site and now I'm on a roll adding a few others :) by sevenofk9 (Thu 29th Aug 2019 2:42pm)

Aha! My first chance to plug my new list of "Things to do": [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/doku.php?id=things\_to\_do](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/doku.php?id=things_to_do) I guess it depends on what you've already done. Personally, I'd go to The Stand Comedy Club tonight. You might have some acts dropping in from The Fringe, so it'll be a good night: [https://thestand.co.uk/performances/705-8194-the-thursday-show-20190829-glasgow/](https://thestand.co.uk/performances/705-8194-the-thursday-show-20190829-glasgow/) by sevenofk9 (Thu 29th Aug 2019 5:11pm)

Also, The Griffin. by sevenofk9 (Thu 5th Sep 2019 4:21pm)

The Avalon isn't a great pub, but does a good Tennents. Second to that, Variety bar. by sevenofk9 (Thu 5th Sep 2019 4:21pm)

I'm working on a "Things To Do" list, that might have something that suits on it: [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/doku.php?id=things\_to\_do](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/doku.php?id=things_to_do) by sevenofk9 (Mon 9th Sep 2019 3:28pm)

* The Comedy Club (The Stand is my preference) Tuesday is amateur night (always interesting), Monday is improv, all nights are good * Wicked Lounge for burlesque/comedy * Super Bario or The Summoners (arcade games) * Riding Rooms for burlesque * Escape Rooms * Skiiing at X-Scape I'm trying to put together a more complete list: [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/doku.php?id=things\_to\_do](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/doku.php?id=things_to_do) by sevenofk9 (Mon 9th Sep 2019 10:26pm)

I've been trying to put together a list of things to do - not much specifically for kids yet, but I'm working on it. Let me know if you end up doing anything that's not on the list so I can add it.

We'll have another next month, date still to be confirmed. It'll be posted about on the meetup group: [https://www.meetup.com/Open-Source-Glasgow/](https://www.meetup.com/Open-Source-Glasgow/) Or you can follow us on the fediverse at [https://glasgow.social/tags/opensource](https://glasgow.social/tags/opensource) by sevenofk9 (Sat 21st Sep 2019 11:54pm)

Sure, we can always use an extra mentor! Plus, it's an excuse to meet some likeminded geeks and have a beer! Plus, the later levels include git and some penetration testing, so worth a try to brush up :) by sevenofk9 (Sat 21st Sep 2019 11:52pm)

I've been trying to put together a list of all the sport clubs in Glasgow. Don't think I've scratched the surface yet but let me know if you find any that aren't on the list. [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/sport](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/sport) by sevenofk9 (Tue 24th Sep 2019 9:10am)

You mean Karen right? by sevenofk9 (Tue 24th Sep 2019 11:32am)

I've wandered down another rabbit hole and added those plus a few other skating links, thanks! by sevenofk9 (Wed 25th Sep 2019 2:05pm)

I'm nearby in Bon Accord and at a loose end. I'd be happy to go see "americana, sometimes with 6 or 8 or 10 people—a horn section, banjo, lap steel, strings and more—and sometimes as one man with an acoustic guitar and his voice" if they're still available! I'm just on my own though, so maybe a couple would appreciate them more! Thanks! by sevenofk9 (Wed 25th Sep 2019 7:51pm)

We'll all be doing it soon. Seems like a fairer quicker way to get served to me. That said, I use the app almost always now. I know how unpopular this comment will be before I make it :D by sevenofk9 (Mon 30th Sep 2019 5:33pm)

I put together some links that might give you inspiration [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/urban\_exploration](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/urban_exploration) by sevenofk9 (Mon 30th Sep 2019 10:52pm)

As far as I know, it's a fake nightclub. Nothing too untoward though - the owners are music producers who schedule events at the fictional venue way in advance, gauge the numbers, then book an actual venue nearer the time (that suits the expected audience size). by sevenofk9 (Wed 9th Oct 2019 3:22pm)

I've been trying to put together a list ( [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/bars\_pubs#pool](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/bars_pubs#pool) ) recently - not sure I've scratched the surface.

King Tut's does. Sleazies used to have one, but it's been gone for more than a year or so. by sevenofk9 (Fri 11th Oct 2019 1:13pm)

IRC is still going strong. I prefer it as only the geeks can figure out how to join :) [https://irc.glasgow.social/](https://irc.glasgow.social/) by sevenofk9 (Mon 14th Oct 2019 3:03pm)

The last Friday of the month (tomorrow) there is a jazz jam night in The Blue Arrow. They also have some other nights you might be interested in [https://www.thebluearrow.co.uk/listings](https://www.thebluearrow.co.uk/listings) by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Oct 2019 10:39am)

Yup. Otherwise, not sure of many other specific jazz nights. Let me know if you find any. by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Oct 2019 12:43pm)

I've often thought they should have a couple of easily identifiable buses that just do simple loops around the town. Put at least four on each way so you'll only ever have to wait 15 minutes. Charge people £5/month for unlimited travel. Make the buses electric to keep emissions down and run the lot as a non-profit. Is this idea doomed to failure? by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Oct 2019 2:41pm)

Could we make them 24 hours and could we require a membership? If you get thrown off one for being a fud, you can't get on any others (until you go through some re-approval process). It might make getting home at 4am less of a safari. by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Oct 2019 3:07pm)

How do you remove people without memberships? A bus-wide blacklist? That's just hurting poor people with extra steps! :P by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Oct 2019 4:44pm)

We don't deal with it. That's my point. Someone can be thrown off a bus for being violent and get on the next one in 5 minutes, or 5 days. by sevenofk9 (Thu 24th Oct 2019 6:09pm)

It's probably mostly already covered here, but this is a list: [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/markets](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/markets) by sevenofk9 (Mon 28th Oct 2019 10:16am)

I run a meetup group that might suit you (The Glasgow Geeks, so all things video games, movies etc). You just missed our big monthly meetup on Friday (20+ of us in the pub) but there are a whole bunch of events lined up throughout the month. Take a look at [https://www.meetup.com/The-Glasgow-Geeks/](https://www.meetup.com/The-Glasgow-Geeks/) There is also [https://glasgow.social](https://glasgow.social) (like an open source twitter for Glasgow) that might help you find someone with common interests. by sevenofk9 (Mon 28th Oct 2019 3:32pm)

I've tried to put together a list of all the tech events in Glasgow - let me know if you find any I've missed: [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/tech](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/tech) by sevenofk9 (Thu 31st Oct 2019 3:30pm)

The party section of poundland (next to the cups and party poppers) usually has a wee section for hen parties/stags that have some stick on moustaches. by sevenofk9 (Fri 1st Nov 2019 10:23am)

I use the lounge of the Avalon bar off Kent Road for a few regular meetups ([https://opensource.glasgow.social](https://opensource.glasgow.social)) It's not a projector (they have a TV screen) but good enough for what I need. It's free to hire the room. Tuesdays are mine! :P It's not the best pub, but it's cheap and cheerful (and the lounge has its own bar and entrance if needed and is pretty isolated from the main bar). by sevenofk9 (Wed 20th Nov 2019 12:55pm)

Yup. It's annoying, as I keep posting events to the subreddit (that get 20-30 upvotes) before the mods delete it and say "use the steamie". Nobody reads it. by sevenofk9 (Fri 29th Nov 2019 11:17am)

Not being able to post events to r/glasgow \- things like Pint of Science was on during the week as well as a few geeky events. When I've been posting recently the mods just delete them with no explanation. I've got so annoyed I put together a live list of all the things they're deleting just to see what else I might be missing :P by sevenofk9 (Fri 29th Nov 2019 12:01pm)

Yes, I understand you'd prefer that. I don't. Not sure when you decided this. Am I still allowed to post our r/glasgow meetup events or will they be summarily deleted too? by sevenofk9 (Sat 30th Nov 2019 4:24pm)

I don't think my own events are special. Most of ones I post aren't my own events. So - just so I have this right - any post we make on /r/glasgow about local events will be deleted unless we get first get it added to thelist.co.uk? How we do go about getting this changed? by sevenofk9 (Sun 1st Dec 2019 11:33pm)

Ha, I'm responding to my summons! I'm afraid I can't be a lot of help though. I'm not sure of any computer networking only groups in Glasgow - there are a bunch of individual events held by groups like [The AWS Meetup](https://www.meetup.com/Amazon-Web-Services-User-Group-Glasgow/), [DevOps Glasgow](https://www.meetup.com/DevOpsGlasgow/) and [Open Source Glasgow](https://www.meetup.com/Open-Source-Glasgow/) that might be relevant but you'd have to look at their upcoming events and decide which ones interest you. I've put together a list of the all tech groups I know of in Glasgow here: [https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/tech](https://glasgow.openguide.co.uk/tech) That said I'm generally interested in Glasgow based mesh networking and self-hosted systems (and providing IRC and related network services to community groups in Glasgow - join us in IRC on [irc.glasgow.social](https://irc.glasgow.social) if that sort of thing interests you). [LordAnubis12](https://www.reddit.com/user/LordAnubis12/) mentioned RookieOven in this thread - that's not exactly what you asked for (it's networking as in meeting people in the computer industry, not people interested in computer networking specifically) but coincidentally they have a meetup tonight (that I'll be at) where someone might have a better suggestion. Anyway, hope you find something (and let me know if you find anything I can add to my list). Neil. by sevenofk9 (Mon 2nd Dec 2019 2:11pm)

It's open right now, I just walked past. Never noticed the type of food it was though, just assumed it was coffees. by sevenofk9 (Tue 3rd Dec 2019 2:01pm)

Put them on ebay for enough to cover your postage - shouldn't cost you anything and then at least they'll avoid the landfill. It'll cost about £5.20 to send them if you can get them in a parcel smaller than 61cm x 46cm x 46cm (maybe sell them as two lots). by sevenofk9 (Thu 21st May 2020 4:18pm)

I guess my point is that the downvote system is there - if it's shite content it'll drop off the list - and the die hards like me can view everything or sort by new etc and get to feel 'the pulse' of what's going on. by sevenofk9 (Sun 9th Aug 2020 9:55pm)

I thought it pretty clearly shows the difference. For example 8 removed on Friday, 1 was deleted. 9 total. by sevenofk9 (Mon 10th Aug 2020 1:39pm)

I'm glad to hear that. I used to post regularly about what was on in Glasgow (some things I ran, like free/open programming workshops) and other unrelated things like Skeptics in the pub events etc but they kept being deleted so I just gave up.

I live on Cleveland Street - it's a great area. It's very safe.

Yep, I agree. It's been especially bad the last couple of months, some days fine, some days undrinkable (even in tea). I'd actually given up years ago and just use bottled water now (I buy the big 5L jugs for quid). I wasn't so fussy - I made my tea with it, but in the past month or two I've started using it for tea too. Quite annoying. My girlfriend on the other hand says "It's fine". I'm in Charing Cross just in case that matters. by sevenofk9 (Thu 20th Aug 2020 4:26pm)

Yeah, the East End does seem to under represented on the wiki: [https://wiki.glasgow.social/running](https://wiki.glasgow.social/running) I've found this, [http://www.3konthegreen.com/](http://www.3konthegreen.com/) \- "**3k on the Green** is a flat, accurately measured road race taking place in Glasgow Green usually on the last Friday of each month. Starting at the McLennan Arch the course follows the Clyde upstream for just over 1.5km where a quick turn takes the runners back along the same path but this time going downstream to finish at the boat house.

I don't have fast fibre where I am, so 5G was my main alternative for fast broadband (faster than the standard 70Mb ADSL line). I'm using 5G broadband from Vodafone - it's £50/month \[for unlimited\] (which is what I was paying in my last flat for Virgin, which isn't available here). It's pretty decent. Pings are slightly higher (30-40ms, so fine, but not as fast as my old Virgin). Speeds are around 250-300Mbit/s down (about what I was getting on Virgin's lower end package) and 50Mbit/s up (higher than what I was getting with Virgin) \[[https://www.speedtest.net/result/10471234543](https://www.speedtest.net/result/10471234543)\] by sevenofk9 (Mon 23rd Nov 2020 10:38pm)

You're right! If you click your username you can toggle between 13 themes, a bunch of them are dark (e.g. 'darkly'). The default is whatever your browser uses, so it should start dark for people that have configured their browser that way. by sevenofk9 (Fri 4th Dec 2020 1:47pm)

Good question. It's open source and decentralised (federated), so, for example, you can run your own server and your users can still follow my server (and vice versa, users on my server can post/comment/subscribe to your forums). Takes back a bit of control. It's also intergrated with the larger fediverse (like Mastodon etc - see [https://glasgow.social](https://glasgow.social)) so you can follow and comment from there too. The project homepage is at [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy) by sevenofk9 (Fri 4th Dec 2020 1:50pm)

This is their latest production docker image. What do you mean with not properly federated? It's using ActivityPub behind the scenes (so you'll be able to subscribe from Mastodon etc) but it's still a work in progress (open beta at the moment) - I've tested subscribing to other instances from mine. We also run a Mastodon instance at https://glasgow.social by sevenofk9 (Fri 4th Dec 2020 2:02pm)

Here is a recent speedtest for mine: [https://www.speedtest.net/result/10533022903](https://www.speedtest.net/result/10533022903) I've found it not bad. It's my only alternative to get better than 60-70Mb ADSL as my flat doesn't have Virgin/fast fibre. Ping is slightly higher, but gaming is still fine, and as you can see speeds are good (300Mb/down, 40+ Mb up - higher than most alternatives). The only downside for me is that I'm not able to host servers at home as Vodafone use CGNAT (shared IPv4 addresses), but other than that everything works well (20+ devices plugged in on the wifi). by sevenofk9 (Fri 4th Dec 2020 6:53pm)

It's got the Bon Accord, what else do you need to know? :P I lived there for 20 years and think it's one of the best areas in Glasgow. Lots of good bars and restaurants near by.

Just had another post deleted (asking for people who ran clubs to get in touch for a documentary) - didn't even put a link in it for fear of getting deleted again. I've been a member of the sub for 10+ years - despite that I never know if a post I make is just going to be deleted or not on a whim. This is coming after I was just banned for two weeks for posting a link to the wiki (in answer to someone asking for a list of venues). Pretty frustating. by sevenofk9 (Tue 13th Jul 2021 3:39pm)

I can pick out tap water vs bottled water in a blind test by smell alone - so it's easy to imagine people being put off by taste. Note, the water here, according to that table has up to 1.4mg/l disinfectant. That's where the smell/taste of chlorine is coming from.

Bon Accord on North Street, just next to Mitchell Library. I'll be there regardless, come say hello! by sevenofk9 (Tue 28th Sep 2021 2:09pm)

That's all automated. It's populated solely by RSS feeds of Glasgow blogs at the moment. There are zero users, give or take. I'm in two minds whether to disable that or not - I thought it would be useful. The point is you can create your own subreddit there for your group/club etc and then chose to follow other communities either locally on [lemmy.glasgow.social](https://lemmy.glasgow.social) or on any other server. I think the [https://lemmy.glasgow.social/c/politics](https://lemmy.glasgow.social/c/politics) community is a good example. It's populated with posts from some relevant Glasgow political blogs, but it's also intended to be a space for discussions. If it got popular those blogs would even out and become a smaller fraction of the posts. Like I said, it's the chicken and egg problem, I'm not sure leaving it just completely blank would be better. by sevenofk9 (Tue 28th Sep 2021 2:11pm)

I did consider that, but I might have to post them under the same username (Reddit Glasgow or something) as creating accounts individually (as I do now for RSS feeds) has a bit of overhead. Posting them as one user takes a way a bit of control (you can't choose to follow/block individuals) but it might be good as a start, for seeding. I'll have a think! by sevenofk9 (Tue 28th Sep 2021 2:35pm)

Yeah, that's what I'm doing with the RSS feeds at the moment, see [https://lemmy.glasgow.social/u/glasgowartclub](https://lemmy.glasgow.social/u/glasgowartclub) for an example. Lemmy is completely open, but it'll probably be a lot of work to modify the login system (and have all the decentralised federation still work). I could build something that sent login details for lemmy as a DM to their reddit account on request.. not sure if that is a bit of a barrier to entry or not. Plus, need to find the time, it's not on the first page of my todo list :P Food for thought though. by sevenofk9 (Tue 28th Sep 2021 2:48pm)

As far as I know, in Glasgow (city area), you aren't allowed a firepit unless you use smokeless fuel (expensive). You ARE allowed to dispose of garden waste though (i.e. if you cut down a tree or something) - of course it's hard to prove what is garden waste and what isn't - which means it's pretty fair game to do what you want - just try to keep the smoke levels down and don't bother anyone etc. by sevenofk9 (Tue 28th Sep 2021 2:52pm)

In fact, I'll not downvote it. That takes effort. It's not interesting enough to upvote and not irrelevant enough to downvote. Which is competely fine. by sevenofk9 (Fri 1st Oct 2021 10:06am)

It's an article from a Glasgow paper, about journalists from Glasgow working at a Glasgow paper winning an award presented at a Glasgow venue. I'd say it's relevant to Glasgow. I don't give a shit about the link or the awards and I'll downvote it, but it shouldn't be deleted because it's not Glasgow enough. That's my two cents. by sevenofk9 (Fri 1st Oct 2021 10:05am)

I should mention, no gas to the premises (so far) - I've started using gas heaters and bottled gas to keep the heating costs down. by sevenofk9 (Mon 9th Jan 2023 9:29pm)

I have a unit about the same size, I'm currently paying £1.40/kwh (about £1400/month). I signed a contract back in October that would bring me down to 95p/kwh (still around £900/month - I use around 1,000kwh/month) but they keep generating monthly bills for the previous rate - it's BES Utilities - they're a fucking shambles. According to this [https://www.gov.uk/guidance/energy-bill-relief-scheme-help-for-businesses-and-other-non-domestic-customers#other-support-for-businessnon-domestic-customers](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/energy-bill-relief-scheme-help-for-businesses-and-other-non-domestic-customers#other-support-for-businessnon-domestic-customers) there should be some help on reducing costs - but that page is says it'll apply automatically to your bill - haven't seen it yet. I think I'll try phoning around for another supplier tomorrow - simply can't get through to BES at the moment. by sevenofk9 (Mon 9th Jan 2023 9:26pm)

Yeah, just electric, tell me about it. Really need to figure something out or it's going to be untenable (I'm only in my first 6 months). Yeah, paying something like 33-36p/kwh at home too. You could look into gas bottle heaters, I'm using them at the moment, £70/15kg of gas - still not quite sure how long that'll last - I'm just blasting the heaters for an hour to get the place warm in the morning - still collecting usage info so I can see how much that's going to cost me per month. Next issue: getting hold of a bottle - that was tricky, ended up just buying two second hand (they replace them for you at some petrol stations - but you need that first one to take in). by sevenofk9 (Mon 9th Jan 2023 9:43pm)

A girl sat next to me in Cathouse years ago (when I was 20 years younger) and I said to her "What the hell happened to your arms? It looks like you've came through a rose bush on your way here". Then she explained to me they were scars from self harming. I had literally no idea what that even was. in the middle of her explanation I was like "Wtf? A razor blade?". I'd never seen anything like that before. Now I know all about it and thinking back makes me cringe. I guess the point is, maybe it wasn't malice and just simple bone-headed ignorance? Granted, she sounds older and should've known better. Though I wonder what would have happened if you'd told her (not that you owe her an explanation or anything) - maybe she'd be mortified and would think differently about opening her mouth in the future {like I do now}. by sevenofk9 (Mon 14th Aug 2023 12:15pm)

The answer is no I'm afraid. You'd need a much bigger unit (or multiple units) to make a dent (and generally it'll go straight back to whatever your usual level is within 24 hours of them being turned off). Best to use it for enclosed areas that are particuarly damp, or when drying clothes. That said, I run two 25L units 24/7 in my ground floor/basement level office which costs about £200/month.
