Good morning Hamburg! It’s 10:00 in the morning an I am walking through the Apothekergarten towards the Congress Center. It’s quiet on the streets.
In this moment I realize, that it’s the time after Christmas. It’s winter. It’s the time of the year, where a lot of people took holidays to recover from the year, to reflect about all the things that have happened and that are going on. It’s a time of peace.

Be excellent to each other!

I’m here at the 33C3 - The 33rd Chaos Communication Congress. It’s awesome!

People here are very friendly. Due to general “Verpeiltheit” I’ve forgotten my Lenovo power supply unit. Also the nearby Saturn has none of those on stock (that’s a shame! You have a Lenovo section but such crucial elements not on stock?!?)
Fortunately, since it’s quite common I always find a way to charge it - From a huge power back with a lot of special adapters to some friendly people who borrow me their supply.

Lesson learned: If possible, always prefer a device that is quite common, so you can borrow equipment to and from other people.

There are still a lot of things going on. Stay tuned and remember: Be excellent to each other :-)
