on the train ride back home from #GPN20 I read a bit on the Braille codepoints https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns#Identifying,_naming_and_ordering and before Augsburg I decoded the message. Attaching it as an image not to mess with screen readers.
Here is my Jupyter notebook, the source text and the decoded text if you're curious:

on closer inspection of the postcard's contents, were description of Unicode characters:
\N{BRAILLE PATTERN DOTS-123467}\N{BRAILLE PATTER
N DOTS-123456} and so on
just as foretold, within 10 minutes a barefoot nerd emerged from the tram, ran to us, and quickly handed over a 3 meter long postcard, as shown here
(photo taken shortly after delivery)
it's sad that @ChaosPost can only deliver postcards to present or upcoming events :(
Twitter came to an exact 50-50 split on the same broadcom vs realtek question, I'm impressed
