Da bei #ERSA die Heizkörper anscheinend beim in der Schublade liegen kaputt gehen, welchen einfachen Lötkolben will man denn zur gelegentlichen Nutzung haben? #followerpower #lötenverbindet #löten

After returning from #ERSA2025 I can say that future #ERSA conferences are definitely worth going to. Great people, fascinating research and good food! #RegionalScience #Geography #GIScience

Me presenting my work on regional student mobility to other researchers in a class room at Panteion University. The room is a bit steamy because of bad air conditioning, the sun is shining outside the windows, and people are sitting on the benches.

The entrance to Panteion University with ERSA graphics on the gate structures. Above the gate there are Mediterranean trees and through the gate you can see the administrative building and the fountain in front of it.

A selfie of me and a group of colleagues having dinner at a local restaurant in the Athens marina. I am the first one on the right.

A view over Athens, Greece from a hill next to Acropolis. Acropolis is visible on the right side, a Cypress tree grove is visible below and the city is visible to the left. The sky is spotless blue and the sun is shining, the heat was brutal.

First proper sessions are about to start at #ERSA2025. I am in a session on the spatial impacts of #Migration and #Mobility. My own presentation is later on today, so if you're at #ERSA come check out session S16 on how spatial patterns of mobility have changed during the twin transition.

The Panteion University courtyard with the department of social sciences visible behind a nice garden with vines and Mediterranean pine trees. The sky is cloudless and blue.

Entrance hall of the social sciences building at Panteion University in Athens, Greece. The photo is shot from the mezzanine overlooking the hall, and there are a lot of people in the hall.

A poster of the ERSA conference with its sponsors visible.

It is #ERSA time! Already quite mindblown, just look at this place 😮

ERSA conference opening keynote in Athens, Greece. The venue is a Greek style round classical palace and the keynote is taking place in the open air courtyard. The sky is blue. There are many people in the foreground and Greek pillars in the background.

Anybody here going to #ERSA in #Athens next week? Or #ECTQG in #Tallinn in a couple of weeks?

Looking for some good sessions and want to hear suggestions!

Alright, my abstract was accepted and I am going to #ERSA in Athens next August!

Submitting abstracts left and right this week, both related to #StudentMobility across #Europe and partly to #visualization. Soon there will be a publication related to this and it would be a proper cherry on top to be able to present the work and how it continues to others 😎

Hoping that #ERSA and #LBS reviewers like my submissions.

Nothing like deciding to submit an abstract 8 hours before the deadline, and finalizing it 2 hours before the deadline. I guess it is just #Academia things.

Anybody else planning to go to #ERSA2025? Looking like it's going to be a nice conference, and apparently #ERSA is rather big as there are quite many sessions.

YEAH BABY!!!!
Sorry! 🫠
But it works now! I put the new BC858C in, tried to make it look less like Michael Myers tried soldering with a hot butter knife (still looks terrible), and then plugged it in.
It will need calibration, but that should be possible once my measuring thing arrives.

Of course, the ESD resistor decided to break during asssembly, but that is a relatively easy fix.
Awesome!

#electronics #Ersa #RDS80

The display of the RDS80 shows the handle heating past 177°C.

The display of the RDS80 showing the handle heating past 294°C.

The insides of the RDS80 showing a broken off resistor near the ESD connector.

There was also a random giveaway of #ERSA soldering station. I was lucky and got one. Not sure if I will use it in the homelab or bring it to @cccac
That will be the first time for me to properly work with soldering equipment from ersa. It looks really good, I like how easy the tip change is on the iCon series.
Not yet checked: how expensive new tips are :)

Mark two of trying to get to Alicante. Hoping the UK's creaky infrastructure holds up today. Looking forward to seeing everyone at #ERSA #ERSA2023 if I ever make it there!

My #Ersa i-con 2 soldering station display back-light failed years ago. Decided to finally fix it and stop squinting. The LEDs on the original flex PCB burnt out, thanks to a lousy design. Designed a new, better, #PCB and had it manufactured at 0.6mm thickness. Can now see the display clearly again.
