Hey there NixOS Community,
The Nix Vegas organizer team is proud to announce a CFP and initial sponsorships for Nix Vegas, the first Nix Community event at the DEF CON 33 Conference, August 7-10 2025:
The theme of this year’s DEF CON is Access Everywhere:
Imagine that we’re building the digital commons from scratch. What could we do to make sure everyone benefits? How would we make it a freer, healthier place to inhabit? How do we protect each other from the worst parts of the current system?
- Services should be usable no matter who you are.
- Services should be accessible no matter where you are.
- Services should not violate user privacy or security.
Anyone who has pushed to staging knows that we don’t have to imagine - we rebuild the world all the time.
If you would like to participate in the CFP, check out the site or go straight to Sessionize. This is our first community event at DEF CON, so we are curious to see what kind of interest there is in giving talks.
Our first two sponsors are System76 and Protectli, two hardware manufacturers. If you are interested in sponsoring, send us an email at <sponsor at nix dot vegas>
.
As always, keep on Nixing,
Nix Vegas Organizers
