I enjoy it when n-gate make fun of us on HN, but it seems a bit mean-spirited to post this on a FOSDEM thread.

I can agree slightly on some of this, but it quickly miss the point completely and is not even funny or satire.

It is quite simple: just skip the people and or technologies that make you vomit in your mouth and go for the interesting parts instead.

FOSDEM is huge and there is usually something somewhere that will be interesting. PostgreSQL, Prometheus, Grafana, Firefox, (tomorrow Rust). Nothing to complain about, and it is free.

Apparently there's a "security check". I have to wonder what's being "secured".

Looks like a Referer header prank

A poorly implemented prank. :-( It's a permanent redirect, which browsers cache forever (or until you purge the cache).
