Dublin Outdoor Map Reading and Checkpoint Hunt
Dublin Outdoor Map Reading and Checkpoint Hunt

Linux Tech Talks: Unifying CLI tools & Graphics Compatibility Layers
Linux Tech Talks: Unifying CLI tools & Graphics Compatibility Layers
Welcome to learn and discuss Linux & c++ topics on Tue 26.5. Aayush Sahay (Lead Developer, Travel Department) gives first a lightning talk on Unifying CLI Tools for 4 Different Linux Distributions. When you like BAT & TMUX and want them with identical personalized CLI views on Arch, Fedora, Ubuntu & Debian, you end up in a jungle of package managers, naming differences, version challenges and automating needs… Aayush will discuss how he is navigating this and also wants to hear other suggestions. https://aaysah92.github.io/ Next we hear from Tamás Boros (Graphics c++ dev and performance engineer) on Graphics compatibility layers on Linux. Lately Tamás has been living in the world of mobile and consoles, focusing on how to bridge the gap between heavy-duty rendering and portable hardware. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced Linux/c++ enthusiast, you are very welcome to join. This event is a joint meetup between Dublin C++ User Group, Linux Developers Ireland and Dublin Linux Community. Please RSVP in one of the 3 meetup groups, so we know the seating needs beforehand. The program will start at 7pm, in the Abbey room of the Camden Court hotel, where we can also quench our thirst before and after the talks in the bar next to the room. See you on Tue 26.5.! Please note: \- There is no free food/pizza served at this event\. \- We plan to take a few photos at the event\. \- This event is in Dublin city center and there is no free parking\.
Meet up, Warm up, and Get Moving to Get Fit :)
Meet up, Warm up, and Get Moving to Get Fit :)
We will start the session with some light stretching exercises to warm us up, and help to prepare us for the run. The pace of the run will be steady, depending on who is running with us on the day. Days when we have a large group we may break into multiple groups, each operating independently at their own pace. Saturdays are good for intermediate runners, and is usually a 10km run, again at a steady pace. If you're looking to get into running, come along on Tuesday or Thursday mornings and I will coach you, at your pace, to get you up to running (jogging) to 5km without stops. The only thing I will ask, if you're a beginner, is that you're able to walk for approx 30 minutes at a relaxed pace. PLEASE NOTE: That, if you RSVP a particular event, then please ensure that you attend, as there may be other members relying on you for company on the run. IMPORTANT NOTE: Any run or activity that you participate in with the group will be at your own risk. Usually we have a post run (after our cool down) coffee in the Dash container at the Hole in the Wall pub.

Easy-paced **social 5K run** followed by a post-run sauna session at the **Chili Pod Sauna in Ringsend**. The focus is conversational pace, relaxed vibes, and meeting new people while doing something active. This is a social meetup, not a competitive running session, so there’s no pressure on pace. 📍 Meeting Point Chili Pod Sauna, Ringsend 🕡 Schedule 6:15pm – Meet at Chili Pod Sauna 6:25pm – Run starts sharp 7:00pm – Post-run sauna session 7:45pm – Finish 🏃 Run Details Approx. 5K Conversational/social pace All levels welcome 🧖 Sauna Payment will be taken in advance in order to book the slots. €15pp will be collected via Revolut. If joining the sauna afterwards, bring whatever you need: towel, swimwear, water, etc. We should be able to leave bags at the sauna during the run, but I’ll confirm this in advance. What to bring: • Running gear • Water if needed • Sauna gear if joining the sauna This is an early Dublin Heat Runners meetup, so it’s a great chance to come along, meet people from the start, and help shape the group as it grows.
Tuesday Regular Footy
Tuesday Regular Footy
Weekly pickup game, been running consistently for a while now. Good group of players, decent level -not too serious, not a kick-about either. 6 a side pitch, ball and bibs sorted. **€8 per person** — covers the pitch booking at SportsCo plus a bit for the equipment. I book the pitch, show up early, bring the balls and bibs, sort the teams on the night. I'm playing too, so it's not a managed session — just someone keeping it organised so it actually happens every week. Bring boots that work on turf, no metal studs, shin pads if you're used to wearing them, and water. We cap at 12. If you book and can't make it, cancel early so someone off the waitlist can jump in. That's it — see you there.
Queer Yoga
Queer Yoga
