Anyone interested in a casual Omaha hackers meetup?

I just got back from DEF CON, and one of my favorite parts was honestly just talking to, and being around people who are into weird technical stuff and showing each other what they're working on.

So I'm thinking about starting something called Omahackers.

I'll be at Inner Rail I will try for every Thursday around 6-7 PM. If people want to show up, bring a laptop, bring a project, bring some weird piece of hardware, or just come hang out and talk.

"Hackers" would be pretty broad here: cybersecurity, RF/SDR, ham radio, electronics, ESP32/Arduino, Linux, programming, networking, AI, data analysis, lockpicking, CTFs, home labs, maker stuff, whatever.

No formal affiliations, no formal presentations, no dues, no requirement to know what you're doing. Just a standing place for Omaha nerds to hang out and work on cool stuff.

If there's enough interest, I'll make a subreddit/Discord/Facebook group so people can coordinate and share projects.

Would anyone actually come to this?

I'll have the badge with the flashies on the table with my laptop on a table somewhere inside.
