Basics

An odd hybrid of events
Is a potential solution to the Developer-User Hackathons/Meetings/Potlucks
Make it "blend in" with local culture Non Maipulative Marketing / Tone Shifting / User Analysis and all that

Example

Have one of these "meet and greets" / potlucks at some community center
- ie Cafe [Church]] Coffe Shop Diner Public Library Mosque [[Restraunt] School Temple YMCA (any NON TOXIC + acessible (ie not westburo baptist church or a hip club...) ) Cummunity Center/Hub
Shoot the Shit on the chosen "topic"
The target group should be SME's of sorts, but working class etc, not enginner/scientist types (or vice versa based off ot the group organizign this)
The goal is Brutal Honesty and Personal Product Use Data in an approachable, ethical manner
ie both "parties" "leave happy"
Can also include/be phase (or stage) 1 of a Design Sprint Hackathon or Extreme Build
A sort of "bring back the Barn Raising (or the polarizing (albeif witty) Make Barn Raising Great Again or Make Fixing Shit Great Again etc as a down to earth parod and marketable "pun" shirt/hat
- could also be a Laptop Sticker Hardhat Sticker or Welder Sticker etc common as a community symbol
- Make one with a cnc drag knife + inkjet cnc? (or laser diode as paper is thin)
- User:Eric will develop this + Open Source (Hardware AND Software) Memes and Jokes in the next rant/phase? (y/n) for pr + dev communication feedback
