Our local Linux user group made a group order (Thanks Mark!) of unix surrealism stickers. Put one of them on an old system76 laptop and the other on a custom Crowview + raspberry pi velcroed to the laptop that my wife and I made from spare parts of other projects. The custom-top has a 9front sd card so its accurate.

They were bigger than I thought (joke here).

Watch for scale.

All the pictures are here: https://social.rootaccess.org/@michaelc/115743223743114550 (piefed does not allow multi-pictures in posts…yet).

Im super happy with how they turned out! And now when I go to my local makerspace/hackerspace theres a nice ice breaker (and not just pengins falling onto ice). Thanks for making such awesome surrealism pmjv!

    nice. I’m waiting on some 9front magnets for my Plan 9 movie poster.

      Im still trying to really use the OS, but its just not clicking. But I love the idea. The docs make us laugh at the meetup.

        Heh, same. There’s a reason I’m going with the ‘I don’t even use plan9’ magnet

          nice! thats probably the most valid one haha.

          Another one that I would love to learn someday is https://100r.co/site/uxn.html

          UXN looks awesome, small and useful…if I can wrap my head around it. Got it working on an old GBA though!

          “Programs” are roms (like emulation style roms). Very unique.

          Im just happy my caveman brain can work with Linux half the time. At least that clicked for me.
