Abstract
The regular FOSDEM lightning talk track isn't chaotic enough, so this year we're doubling down on Lightning Lightning Talks (now with added lightning!).
Thought of a last minute topic you want to share? Got your interesting talk rejected? Has something exciting happened in the last few weeks you want to talk about?
This is the first of two sessions for participants to speak about subjects which are interesting, amusing, or just something the FOSDEM audience would appreciate.
Selected speakers line up and present in one continuous automated stream, with an SLO of 99% talk uptime.
Presenters who attempt to speak for longer than 256 seconds risk being swept off the stage by our Lightning Lightning Talk Cleanup Crew.
Featuring:
- Rémi Duraffort (The use of technology by emergency services)
- Bogomil Shopov - Бого - (./make art: A Creative Commons Theater Experiment)
- Maanav Nagda (Scrcpy: Your new everything)
- Alexey Dubovskoy (Cooklang Federation)
- Josephine Pfeiffer (my mainframe runs arch btw)
- Massimiliano Giovagnoli (xcover: Cross-language test coverage with eBPF)
- Carles Onielfa (IsThatSlop? Community-powered AI Content detection)
- Raphael Odini & Alex Bourreau (Open Prices: an open crowdsourced price database)
- Benjamin Alan Jamie (Everyone benefits from translations; if you make them useful)
- alberto (SoCmel1, an SDR SoC. Litex and RiscV on a Gowin FPGA)
- Anton Borisov (How Bóbr Broke My Postgres Search: ARM vs x86 in 256 Seconds)

Anton Borisov is an open-source contributor in the streaming/data ecosystem. He builds distributed systems, cares about performance and correctness and collects curious bugs across platforms usually caused by him.
Josie is a Senior Consultant at Red Hat, working on infrastructure and security. She spends work hours on things like confidential containers, free time on porting distros to weird architectures, and contributing to CNCF projects. An open source nerd who unironically thinks s390x is cool and will argue about it. Based in Zurich, occasionally writes crystal, and likes electronics with transparent cases.
Maanav is a 17 year old developer from London, and has always been interested in hardware longevity and sustainability, which led him down the path of Linux and Open source. Dedicated to keeping technology in use rather than in landfills, he has leveraged the use of Linux and open source tools, culminating in him currently working on an LFS project to get even more life out of older hardware. Maanav will demonstrate how scrcpy serves as a vital bridge for repurposing old Android devices, showing the power of Linux not only saving older PCs and Laptops, but phones as well.
