💜 Csak nőknek szóló PyLadies esemény! 💜 Sziasztok PyLadiek! A QR-kódokat nap mint nap használjuk, de vajon tudjuk, hogyan működnek? Ezen az alkalmon röviden megismerkedünk a QR-kódok világával: megnézzük, milyen típusai vannak, hogyan tárolnak adatot, és miért számítanak ennyire zseniális megoldásnak. Az elméleti bevezető után a gyakorlaté lesz a főszerep: Python segítségével saját QR-kódokat fogunk generálni, testre szabni, és megnézzük, milyen lehetőségeket kínálnak a különböző könyvtárak. A foglalkozás kezdők számára is követhető, és remek alkalom arra, hogy egy hétköznapi technológia mögé nézzünk. 👨‍💻 Előadó: Németh-Buhin Alba és Sepp Norbert 🗓️ Programterv A két előadás között hosszabb szünetet tartunk, hogy legyen időnk beszélgetni és megismerni egymást :) • 17:30 – 18:00 Megérkezés, setup • 18:00 – 19:00 Előadás I. • 19:00 – 19:40 Szünet, Networking • 19:40 – 20:35 Előadás II. • 20:35 – 21:00 Záró gondolatok, elköszönés (A programterv változásának jogát fenntartjuk.) 💻 Mivel készülj? Workshop jellegű alkalom lesz, így ajánlott, hogy legyen nálad egy programozásra alkalmas számítógép. A gepeden, jo, ha le vannak töltve az alábbi programok: \- Python \(https://www\.python\.org/downloads/\) \- opencv\-python \- scikit\-image \- reedsolo \(opcionális\) \- customtkinter \(opcionális\) 💜 Kit várunk? Olyan lányokat és nőket várunk, akiket érdekel a Python világa, és szívesen kipróbálnák, hogyan lehet QR-kódokat létrehozni és testre szabni Python segítségével. Az alkalom kezdők számára is követhető, így nem szükséges előzetes tapasztalat a QR-kódokkal kapcsolatban. 📍 Helyszín Balance Irodaház – 7. emelet Dél (Lifttől balra) Cím: 1139 Budapest, Váci út 99 🌍 Nyelv Az esemény nyelve: magyar (és Python) 🤝 Szponzor HCL Technologies Starschema Kft.

“Ha egy lény szenved, nincs erkölcsi igazolás arra, hogy ezt a szenvedést ne vegyük figyelembe.” *―* Peter Singer – *Állati felszabadítás* **A session magyar nyelvű! A [consciouspass.com](https://consciouspass.com/activity/filozofiai-beszelgetes-veganizmus-kornyezet-egeszseg-es-etika-2026-06-25/) oldalon Karma pontokért is elérhető.** A Nature.com szerint bizonyítékok vannak arra, hogy az emberek már több mint 2,5 millió éve fogyasztanak húst. A modern ipari társadalmak azonban új etikai dilemmát hoztak létre: a húsevés egy életmódbeli választás, vagy erkölcsi kérdés? Ebben a beszélgetésben a veganizmus filozófiáját vizsgáljuk, valamint azt a kérdést, hogy az állatoknak jár-e az emberével összevethető erkölcsi figyelem. Különböző nézőpontokat elemzünk antropológiai, táplálkozástudományi, környezeti és erkölcsi érvek mentén. Szükséges-e a húsfogyasztás az egészséghez? Erkölcsileg „tisztábbak”-e a növényi alapú étrendek? Mi a helyzet a környezeti és egészségügyi hatásokkal? Mennyire kell a biológiának meghatároznia az etikát? A vita érinti az állatok szenvedésével és az emberi felelősséggel kapcsolatos morális kérdéseket is, többek között Peter Singer gondolatait és a „speciesizmus” kritikáját — azt az elképzelést, hogy pusztán a más fajhoz tartozás nem lehet alapja az erkölcsi értékek csökkentésének. A cél nem a konszenzus elérése, hanem annak megkérdőjelezése, amit az ételről, erkölcsről, természetről és az ember–állat viszonyról gondolunk. **Vendégek bemutatása (15 perc)** Rövid bevezető a témába és a résztvevők bemutatása. * Vegan vagy vegetáriánus vagy? Miért? **Questions (1 hour and 45 minutes)** **Kérdések (1 óra 45 perc)** 1. Igaz-e, hogy a szarvasmarha-tenyésztés jelentős környezeti terheléssel jár? * Növényi takarmány felhasználása állati takarmányként * Földhasználat * Vízlábnyom * CO₂-kibocsátás 1. A kis- és nagyléptékű termelés paradoxona: a nagyüzemi termelés olcsóbb, elérhetőbb és bizonyos szempontból környezetileg hatékonyabb, ugyanakkor az állatok életkörülményei általában rosszabbak. 2. Egy történet az élelmiszer-pazarlásból származó metánról. **Veganizmus és egészség** 1. Néhány adat: a veganizmus terjedése. 2. Ha bizonyos emberek vagy populációk esetében a húsevés jobb egészségügyi kimenetellel jár, ez erkölcsi alapot ad-e a húsfogyasztás fenntartására? 3. Függjenek-e az étkezési döntések erkölcsi szinten a tudományos bizonyosságtól? (Példa: a táplálkozástudomány gyakran változik — mennyi bizonyíték tekinthető elégségesnek?) 4. A vegán étrend választása pusztán egészségügyi döntés, vagy erkölcsi kötelességgé kellene válnia? 5. Ha a laboratóriumi hús teljesen azonos lenne az állati hússal, de állatok megölése nélkül készülne, elfogadnák-e ezt a vegánok és a húsevők? **Antropológia** 1. Ha az ember természeténél fogva mindenevő, ez igazolja-e a húsevést? („természetes” vs „erkölcsileg elfogadható”) 2. Számos hagyományos kultúrában az állatok vadászata tisztelettel együtt létezett. Lehetséges-e ennek modern megfelelője? 3. Az ember viseli a teljes erkölcsi felelősséget más fajokkal szemben — mennyire fenntartható ez? 4. Etikailag elfogadható-e háziállatokat (macskákat, kutyákat) tartani? **Erkölcsi kérdések** 1. Peter Singer szerint a szenvedés számít, függetlenül a fajtól. Ha egy állat képes szenvedni, miért számítana kevésbé az ő szenvedése, mint az emberé? 2. A „speciesizmus” összevethető-e más diszkriminációs formákkal, ahol egy csoportot előnyben részesítünk másokkal szemben? 3. Ha soha nem fogadnánk el, hogy egy másik intelligens faj embereket tenyésszen étkezés céljából, miért fogadjuk el az állattenyésztést? *** **RSVP:** Kérjük, jelezd részvételed a Meetupon vagy a [consciouspass.com](https://consciouspass.com/activity/filozofiai-beszelgetes-veganizmus-kornyezet-egeszseg-es-etika-2026-06-25/) oldalon (Karma pontokért!).

Hello everyone, Welcome to the Monthly Book Club, the discussion edition of the Budapest Silent Book Club for those who enjoy reading the same book and sharing thoughts together. This June, we’ll be reading *Flesh* by David Szalay. The novel follows a man’s life across different stages, relationships, countries, and social worlds, exploring desire, ambition, class, masculinity, and the strange ways a person’s life can be shaped by circumstance. It’s a sharp, intimate, and unsettling read that opens the door to deep conversations about identity, power, success, loneliness, and the body’s role in how we move through the world. 🕕 Time: 18:00–20:00 – Group discussion about the book 📍 Location: Kőleves Kert I’ll bring a few discussion prompts, but everyone’s thoughts are welcome. Whether you loved the book, found it heavily debatable, or didn’t quite manage to finish, you’re invited. **Follow us:** 📌 **[Goodreads](https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1271292-budapest-silent-book-club)** 📌 **[Facebook Page](https://www.facebook.com/people/Budapest-Silent-Book-Club/61567388151835)**

**A hidden apartment. Good people. No alcohol required.** Friday Sobers is basically a house party without the alcohol. If you’ve never been to Okuma before, it’s a hidden tea house tucked away inside an old renovated apartment. Cozy rooms, warm lighting, vintage furniture, music playing in the background, and people spread out across the space. It feels more like hanging out at a friend’s place than going to an event. On Friday nights, we open the doors and see who shows up. Some people come with friends, some come alone and end up talking to strangers. People move between rooms, join different conversations, discover new teas, listen to music, and settle into the evening at their own pace. We’ve got unlimited premium loose-leaf teas and herbal blends brewing all night, but honestly, the tea is mostly an excuse to bring good people together. The real point is having a place to spend a Friday evening that isn’t a bar, a club, or another loud venue where nobody can hear each other. Just good vibes, interesting people, and a cozy hidden apartment in the middle of the city. 🕕 6PM–9PM 💸 4,900 HUF (unlimited tea included) - RSVP on website 🎓 Students get 10% off Come solo, bring friends, or do both. RSVP: https://okuma.space/event/friday-sobers-the-tea-social-4/

**"Man meets woman**" is *Yang Liu*'s pictogram book about gender differences that she experienced and put into a funny form for everyone to laugh and talk about. We will start out from watching her pictures (laughing) and discussing what they mean, how true they are and how much do we see them play a role in the everydays. Besides the picture book we go further discussing differences between men and women: the male and female brains, their ways of experiencing life and each other and the struggles and funny sides of dealing with these differences. Own experiences, funny examples, questions, and opinions are very welcome in this jaunty discussion! We hope to bring the two genders a little closer to each other on a lightsome evening of laughter and...surprises? The event will be held at the **underground part of Élesztő.**

A június valószínú, hogy sokak számára a nyaralásról szól, de ez a novella talán még beleférhet a strand/napolaj/jégkrém mellett. Kísérleti jelleggel ez az alkalom hétköznap este lesz, hátha az most alkalmasabb. Moskát Anita az egyik legelismertebb magyar sci-fi író, kapott Zsoldos Péter díjat, BSFA díjat, kiadták több könyvét. Ez a novellája a Gabo-féle Az ​év magyar science fiction és fantasynovellái 2024 gyűjteményben szerepel. Kicsit climate fiction, kicsit feminista, kicsit szürreális -- és kirobbanóan lendületes olvasmány. És ha valami szuper könyvre leltetek a könyvhéten, ne tartsátok magatokban! :-)

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

**Open-Air Cinema & Hungarian Meetup** As the heatwave is still on, we've prepared a cooler event for this Saturday! We'll spend the evening at an open-air cinema and watch Saturday Night Fever at Hunyadi Tér in the 6th district. **Meeting point: in front of Liszt Ferenc Memorial Museum at 7:30PM** The film will be in Hungarian with English subtitles, so even if you don't speak Hungarian yet, you'll still be able to follow and enjoy the movie. The screening starts at 9:00 PM, but we'll meet at 7:30 PM to find a good spot and spend some time practising Hungarian beforehand. Our conversation activities will focus on movies, actors, cinemas, and entertainment, making it a great opportunity to learn useful vocabulary in a relaxed setting. We have materials prepared for all levels, so everyone is welcome, whether you're a complete beginner or a more advanced learner. If you want you can join only for the conversation part and skip the movie or vice versa, skip the conversation and be there for the movie. Bring something comfortable to sit on and some snacks, enjoy a summer evening outdoors, meet fellow learners, and watch a classic film together!

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

The film’s “intelligence and wit,” “first-class performances” and “sharp, funny script” have made Pretty Woman a classic and truly “something special!” THE OHIO THEATRE: The Ohio Theatre is located at 39 E. State Street, between 3rd and High Streets, across the street from the Ohio Statehouse.

The breathtaking details (including the 21-foot-high chandelier!) of its opulent, Spanish-Baroque architecture make any night at the Ohio Theater an event to remember!

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
