Tomorrow, I'll be meeting @[email protected]!
Will I be able to identify him in a crowd, only guided by the stank™?
Yes! We met and discussed important wetshaving business, slow auto complete on Lemmy user mentions, and lambda calculus, as one does on a fair Saturday morning😊
It was great to meet you, thanks for making the time!
On a side note, we really need to fix that auto completion issue, I didn't get the notification of this mention because of a typo in my username. 😅
It was very nice being able to put a face on the username! In person meetups are good, but it will probably be difficult to organize (I guess djundjila and davewave are on the right side of the pond, so it's not completely impossible 😂)

@[email protected] is also on our side of the pond, we are legion! 🤝
I see! It seems I apply a default presumption of Estadounidensitad
@PorkButtsNTaters666
It's an excellent zeroth order model for our sub 👍

I'd definitely be up for a European wetshavers meet-up next year!
Depends on the crowd I guess... If it's one of primarily older gentlemen, I fear you won't have much luck! 😁 /s
In all seriousness though, meeting other wetshavers is cool and I hope you'll have a blast!
