Just getting set up for the @atproto.london hack night at Newspeak House on Bethnal Green Road at 6pm tonight Come along and join us!
A event space at Newspeak House, London, set up for a workshop or meetup. White folding tables are arranged in a U-shape with white folding chairs around them.

Hear hear! Well done, Spain 🇪🇸 Enough with the Israeli phone banks trying to steal the popular vote. They've ruined what is usually a lot of fun for their own political goals.

Oh, this happened yesterday... If you have kids, don't fall for it (I don't have kids BTW) #scammer
A screenshot of a text message conversation. The first message reads, “Dad save this new number.” The reply in green says, “Who is this?” followed by, “Is that you Kate?” The next response says, “Yes, Could you do me a favour please?” The final message replies, “Nice try, I don’t know anyone called Kate. Jog on scammer.” This appears to be a scam attempt, quickly identified and shut down by the recipient.

Photos from around #Europe Location: Yair Bridge, Galashiels Taken: 23rd April 2023 10:52
A scenic view looking west across the Scottish Lowlands from Yair Bridge, just outside Galashiels in the Scottish Borders. In the foreground, a narrow country lane winds uphill beside a low stone wall lined with bright spring grass. The road is bordered by tall, leafing trees on the left, their early green foliage contrasting against a grey overcast sky. On the right, leafless trees line the River Tweed, whose calm, rippling water reflects the cloudy light. A wooden signpost mounted beside the bridge points toward the “Southern Upland Way,” a long-distance walking route. In the background, soft, rolling hills and forested slopes complete the peaceful, rural landscape.

A view from Princes Street Gardens in Edinburgh, Scotland, looking up toward the Old Town. In the foreground is the equestrian statue of the Royal Scots Greys regiment, featuring a soldier in uniform on horseback atop a large stone plinth with black commemorative plaques. Behind the statue, a lush park with blooming white and yellow flowers and trees stretches up the hillside. On the skyline are several notable buildings: the tall dark spire of The Hub (the former Victorian church now an events venue), and the turreted, gothic-style towers of the former Victoria Hall and adjacent buildings along Castlehill. The sky is overcast with a soft grey cloud cover.

It's the last day of Pride month, and it's been interesting to see a more muted public reaction from corporations this year. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Discuss... Included a pic for engagement (and also to test some code)
A man standing in an elevator taking a mirror selfie. He has short hair and a trimmed beard, and is wearing a light blue button-down shirt, khaki trousers with a black belt, and a rainbow lanyard around his neck holding an ID badge. He is holding a red phone in one hand and wearing a large watch on his wrist. The elevator walls are metallic and reflective.

The name on this street sign in Hamburg tickled me "Poggenmühle" is a Low German name: "Pogge" meaning "frog," and "Mühle" meaning "mill." Thus, it translates to "Frog Mill." More about Poggenmühle, Hamburg... (1/4)
This photo shows a street sign for Poggenmühle in Hamburg, Germany. The sign is mounted on a traffic light pole, and the scene features a modern urban setting with glass buildings, cars, and a fairly busy intersection. The weather appears clear with light clouds, and there's a slight urban hustle in the background — typical for Hamburg's central districts.

On the Elizabeth Line home Heathrow after a really great day @ahoy.eu I met so many great people who were all really engaged and friendly #ATProto
This photo is a casual selfie taken on a mostly empty subway or metro train. The person in the foreground is seated on patterned seats, wearing a dark navy hoodie over a green t-shirt. He has short hair, a trimmed mustache and beard, and a calm, relaxed expression. The background reflects the train’s modern design, with overhead maps, grab handles, and large windows creating a sense of depth. There’s a second passenger visible further down the carriage, seated quietly. The lighting is soft and even, suggesting it might be taken in the evening or at night. The whole image has a calm, reflective vibe — maybe a quiet ride after a long day.

Really interesting talk about @sprk.so from @joe.sprk.team on engaging with Gen-Z @ahoy.eu
This photo captures a moment from a talk given by Joe Basser of Spark Social at the Ahoy Social event. The setting is a modern, well-lit venue with industrial-style ceilings and a relaxed, tech-conference vibe. Joe stands at the front beside a podium, presenting a slide titled “Choice & Intent” on a large screen behind him. The slide emphasizes user control in decentralized social platforms like Bluesky, touching on themes such as visibility of content, control over the social graph, avoiding multiple accounts, and the use of custom Lexicons.

The audience, a mix of casually dressed attendees including one taking notes, listens attentively. The vibe is collaborative and engaged, reflecting a shared interest in decentralization and user empowerment in social media. There’s also branding for “ahoy.social” in the background, reinforcing the theme of forward-thinking digital social spaces.
