Do you like sports and want to show that CS students actually do sports too? 💻 Do you have a sport you can't get enough of and would love to share with the chapter? Help organize events! 🏐🏸

The Sports Committee is an open committee, which means there are no specific requirements on how much you need to do. You simply do as much as you want. This could mean helping out with our weekly Sunday sports or planning other larger events like climbing or curling 🥌. Or possibly something completely different that you think would be fun.

On Wednesday, September 23, from 12:00 to 13:00, we will hold an introductory meeting for the Sports Committee in META’s meeting room to go over the upcoming semester. We will review the events to be organized and assign responsibilities to those who want to help out!

Join the Sports Committee's Mattermost: https://mattermost.datasektionen.se/idrott

Are you more pumped to just show up and play sports? Awesome! That is just as important, and I really hope we see each other to share the joy of sports! 🏀 🥏

Speedy regards, Julius, Chapter Sports Leader -26 (fastest in the chapter?)

Elections for Konglig Öfverdrifv are now open!

Due to the blackout and the early date of Budget-SM, as Chair of the Election Committee, I have made the decision to run the election for Konglig Öfverdrifv on a by-election timeline.

This means nominations close 4 days prior to the election, and acceptances close 3 days prior.

While this decision isn't explicitly grounded in the governing documents, it is the most practical solution for this specific scenario.

If you've already read the board's election reform proposal, you'll know it aims to prevent situations like this in future years.

Have fun nominating people!

HO HO HO, christamas is approaching and so is dJulkalendern

Applications for the dJulkalendergroup has opened! 🦆🎉 Help create dJulkalendern, our christmas themed CTF (Capture the Flag 🚩), dÄggjakten, a planned Easter jeopardy CTF, and finetune dHöstkalendern.

Apply, if you 🫵 think you can help with the following:

Creating challenges

• 💻 Window creation: Do you want to create challenges that engage the solvers in an area of computer science 💽, cybersecurity 🔐, or really just any arbitrary topic 🍶 that you know of? Apply as a Window creator for the dJulgroup!

• 🥼 Testing: Test, test, 1, 2, 3? Do you want to make sure our windows are reasonably solvable? Preventing guessy methodsand promoting logical conclusions? Apply as a tester for the dJulgroup!

• 📝🔥Story writing: Do you want to author dAnkans adventures? Lead the reader towards your sly hints? Make sure that christmas wonder never fails? Apply as a story writer for the dJulgroup!

• 📢 PR: Want to make sure that our CTF-challenges reaches the entire country? Maybe even further 🤔? Do you want to contact sponsors and in general, do you like money🤑? Apply as PR-responsible for the dJulgroup!

• 🖼️ Graphic design: Do you want to interpret the story through the lens of our brainrotted zeitgeist 🎨? Do you want an outlet for your creative energy, even if you are not comfortable with the pen 🖊️, brush 🖌️ or digital tools? Apply as graphics person for the dJulgroup! (The fact is: The less experience, the better)

• 🕸️ Web development: Do you want to create and improve our website, which solvers will use? Apply as web developer for the dJulgruppen!

• 🧰 Infrastructure: Do you know DNS, how to write containerfiles, tweak clusters, IaC, CI/CD and DevOps in general (as a Service)? Apply as infrastructure responsible and help us out when the challenges inevitably explode!

These areas and probably a few other things I can't think of right now are something you can do in the dJulgroup! If you're interested in any of these, or anything else CTF-related, I think you should apply! 😇 No pre-requisites required (except for the infrastructure role)

Hi chapter!

Earlier this spring, the Climate Chapter Meeting took place, where we voted through a new climate policy. It came into effect on June 1, so here is a reminder of what it means ahead of the start of the semester.

Single-use items: We now have reusable tableware in META, which must be used at all events with up to 30 participants.

Stricter food rules: Vegetarian food is the chapter’s priority. However, white meat may be offered as an active choice when registering for an event. Red meat will not be reimbursed at all, with the exception of certain events, such as some involving traditional Swedish food. More information about the food rules, as well as a list of events that are exempt, can be found under §5.1 of the policy. Expenses that violate these rules, such as purchases of red meat, will not be reimbursed through Cashflow!

Fossil-free transport: The section will no longer cover the cost of fossil fuels. Diesel vehicles must be refueled with fossil-free fuel (e.g. HVO100), and for petrol vehicles, the fuel mixture may contain a maximum of 25% fossil fuel.

This is only a summary of the full policy, which can be found here: https://styrdokument.datasektionen.se/policies/klimatpolicy.

Note, the policy is not available in English. If you need translation services provided then I, Carl Blomqvist, will happily provide them. Cheers!

If you have any questions, feel free to contact the board!
