“Get you spot” - typo??

This is pretty neat! The new tech for big screens is unreal.

Omg noone noticed that hahahaha. I didn't design the graphic, but I'll let the guy know to fix the spelling. I guess we're all dyslexic...

It’s such an easy one to misspell. I was a graphic artist for years and it’s not the first time I’ve seen this error. Glad I could help! Lmao.

Now that I think about it, I do remember the organizer sitting down at his iMac, making that graphic, someone approach him and point out the spelling mistake, him fixing it, and then presumably forgetting to save the modified file before handing back my usb drive with more assets for the show. It's kind of funny how we had 1200 athletes, thousands of staff members and noone pointed out the spelling mistake once it was on the big screen. Thankfully this graphic was only used to tell the attending guests that pre pre orders are available for the 2025 show during the end of this one.

My memory is a bit foggy as today was a pretty stressful day, and about 500-600mg of caffeine went trough my system during the 12h show...

Edit: i looked at the caffeine contents of the energy drinks I drank. My estimate was 102mg per can, but the flavourful I drank the most had 180mg, and I only drank one can that had 102mg. That puts the total caffeine amount for the 12h period of about 900-1002mg. How the fuck am I still alive?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
