Cartel del evento "El Gran Juernes" que anuncia los conciertos de dos bandas, Fundación Francisco Frankenstein (de Mallorca) y Los Sacramentos (de Barcelona), y tres pinchadiscos (Retroman, Principe Diegales y Finito de Nou Barris). Esto es el jueves 17 a las 20h en el Club Mutante de Palma. Entrada anticipada 12€, en taquilla 15€. El cartel muestra un dibujo de un señor en amarillos y rojo sujetando un vinilo negro y blanco.

Cartel del Hacklab de L'Elèctrica donde se informa de que el tercer sábado de cada mes habrá hacklab en el Ateneo Popular L'Elèctrica. Se ve una ilustración de un pingüino (referenciando Linux) con un portátil y los logos de BULMA y L'Elèctrica, también un trocito de sandía estilo pixel (referenciando la lucha Palestina). Pone que la primera sesión será este sábado 19 y que tratará de alternativas libres a Google Workspace y Microsoft 365.

💖😋 Dos cosas para esta semana (anunciando en plan influencer):

👉 Concierto de Fundación Francisco Frankenstein 🧟 + Los Sacramentos (Bcn) en Mutante 🎸🎹. Jueves 17 a las 20h.
Entradas 🎟️ […]

With Google taking everything over, and my effort to De-Google, I will no longer be using my Fitbit. So far I have refused to change over to a Google account, but now am being forced to next year.
Any suggestions for a Canadian fitness tracker?
