Zegnat aaronpk: Rose definitely has a bluetooth speaker. Maybe two, if she hasn’t returned the other one to you? I do not have any IndieWeb gear stashed.
#
Zegnat If not Rose, maybe sebsel is still sitting on some gear? But I feel like everything went to Rose after Utrecht.

#
[Rose] I have 2 speakers

[Rose] And it's a little late to try and post the speakers.

#
Zegnat Ah, yes, my mind just completely skipped A’dam and only thought of Brighton
jeremycherfas joined the channel
#
sebsel I was about to say: Rose has both
#
sebsel I might be able to arrange another one.
#
sebsel Can bring an iPad too this time. I don't have stands.
#
jeremycherfas I have high-quality clip-on lavalier mics that I could bring to Brighton if needed but they are corded and XLR, so probably not much use.

#
sebsel conference mic* that would be. A conference speaker is something else...

[tantek] what is that fish site that we use to make our websites
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "that fish site that we use to make our websites" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "that fish site that we use to make our websites is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] what is Glitch

aaronpk wha...? "to have 5 minutes to present their wants to an expert panel of judges"
#
[schmarty] anyone have recommendations for pre-paid mobile SIM w/ data in Amsterdam? 😅
#
[schmarty] last year in Berlin i used an Orange UK "Orange Holiday Europe" card and bought another one recently for this trip
#
[schmarty] today i checked it out and wikipedia is like "Orange UK doesn't exist anymore" and their prepaid site doesn't list NL as a place that they work 😅
#
Zegnat I have had good luck with the SIMs from the supermarket chain AH (Albert Heijn). Not sure if they still sell prepaid.
#
Zegnat UK is still EU for now so I would assume that Orange card to work, but if their site is down that is a bit of a problem :P
#
[schmarty] their top-up site is still up, so :crossed_fingers:
#
aaronpk is happily using an eSIM

[jgmac1106] I just go right to the SIM vending machines off the plane

sebsel [schmarty] SIMs in the Netherlands are very easy to come by. I believe you can just get them at the supermarket, and they usually cost 5 euro’s while still getting 10 euros on it.
#
sebsel but then you pay 1 or 2 cents per MB. But I think you can get decent data plans in shops like KPN, Vodafone, T-Mobile. There are a lot of these shops in the city :)
#
sebsel 1 cent per MB on 10 euro’s is still 5 euro for 1 GB ofcourse. Wouldn’t surprise me if the cheapest way is just buying a stack of new SIM-cards :p
#
[schmarty] thanks and nice to know, [sebsel]!

[Rose] I can also grab a HoT sim from the supermarket here and forward it. The sim is €2 and a €6 bundle gives you 5GB.
