Excluding, say, here or the fediverse more broadly.
There have been some nice corners of the internet that have somehow kept going along their way that I’ve enjoyed lurking around like some alien observer. They are the few spaces I dare not pop in and ask, out of fear it would somehow break things.
All the Chaos Computer Events are like a different dimension. You can leave your laptop somewhere unattended and the worst thing that may happen to it, is that someone plugs it in to charge.
I heard about CCC all the way in my UK university! Wish we had something that big in the UK. I remember beards, lots of beards!
Well… beards and dresses. Maybe some cat ears. It’s often very diverse (as in LGTBQ+)
GeoCaching for offline (semi-online). When I learnt about it, it blew my mind. There’s literally trillions of hidden ‘stashes’ all around the world that people have hidden. In bushes, up poles, behind signs, etc. Every city. Fields, forests, everywhere!
In the stashes you’d find anything from a piece of paper to mini figures or a bullet! You write your name on the paper and date it. Then you hide it and go hunting for more using the Geocaching app.
When you say hide it, do you mean back where you found it or elsewhere? Are there some that encourage you to add/move parts of the caches around from one to another?
Afaik you can swap (you out one thing in and take one thing out). Usually in the same spot, yeah
