Proxycafe: Learning Cafe / Tear Apart & Rebuild

- May 18th, 2025

Wednesday May 28, 2025, Proxycafe: Learning Cafe / Tear Apart & Rebuild. Door opens at 19:00. Workshop from 20:00 till 21:00

” Hardware glitching? Always the wrong screwdriver for the wrong screws in the wrong order?
Too many parts left over after reassemblage? Come patch up some long-neglected hardware with us.”
In this workshop we are going to provide a couple of laptops and maybe a desktop computer for us to open it, analyze the components, discuss them and then assemble the machine back. The idea is to increase confidence on opening our machines so that we can fix them or upgrade components and also to have a better understanding on what’s under the chassis and demistify the black box. 🙂
You can also bring your own computer, don’t be scared of opening your loved laptop!

Proxy Cafe, a place and moment where we gather to talk about computers, free and opensource software, to follow or give a workshop, share skills. Feel free to come for a workshop, to have a chat, a drink around a pizza!
Free software workshops. Discussing tech and politics, GNU/Linux, fixing computers and revive old laptops, free and opensource software workshops. Zapatista coffee.
