After *heavy* consideration, I've decided to leave Fosstodon and move to Hachyderm.

Short version:
Given public sentiment I think it will be easier for me (personally) in the long run if I make a change.

@berryman @derek came to say the same... your desktop background is rad.

@skinnylatte I am really enjoying all these local Monterey tips from you. Every June I travel out to your area, as I am a drone mapping instructor and co-organizer of a week-long academic/conservation drone workshop at CSUMB. https://dronecampca.org/ It's so damn beautiful around there, and I usually spend time exploring the area when I'm there. (We do have people from MBARI in the workshop from time to time.)

Stirring up some old memories.

10 years ago today, Sir Terry Pratchett left us. What a legacy. 📚 ❤️

Background: I have two nodes, which can't see any other nodes besides each other. So, for some actual connections I connected one to an internet gateway (MQTT) so it is receiving messages on a local (Ohio) channel.

Meshtastic is an interesting technology for experimentation, but it helps to have a specific use case in mind. Most communication is basically "hello? is this thing on?"

@rysiek Long may he live.

@_elena I'm interested to read the admin responses here. I auto delete my posts both so I can be polite about storage, and also for the privacy benefits.

Storage and upkeep are the main reasons I never considered self-hosting my own masto, even though I often do with other services.

My personal policy is that anything I want to endure should be on my blog.

People cheering the Onion today may not know they re-introduced goddamn hand-holdable paper subscriptions this year. $99 gets you a dozen and a big ole warm fuzzy. ❤️

Imma set up @ejabberd and kick the tires on some #XMPP clients later this week. If any is up for some test chats, let me know.

Edit: until I set up my own server, I can be reached on: coreysnipes@xmpp.jp

@evan The recent This American Life podcast about that specific scenario is really good. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/843/a-little-bit-of-power

@inthehands That looks exceptional. TY for the tip. I mostly don't track games but am starting to pay more attention for my kids.

Tried some croissants in the solar oven. 50 minutes was too long, but still. Bread from the sun! ☀️

@inthehands Thank you. Even in the early days I'm finding both are very true.

As a new educator in a community college setting, this thread on learning and teaching is deeply relevant and insightful. Thanks, Paul @inthehands
