"Going thirty-eight Dan, chill the fuck out, mow your damn lawn and sit the hell down"

---

Back after giving myself a month away from Fedi.

I'll attempt to curate my experience much more, starting with this account and instance.
I want comfy things in my life - I don't need to be adding stress and angst from my online interactions. We can do better. We should do better. Including myself.

My interests cover #tech, #photography, #biking, #motorsport, #fountainpen, and other things I will no doubt need to add here when I remember.
I touch computers in my spare time and self host things. Oh yeah so #selfhosting I guess.
In my other spare time I renovate my house and do #DIY stuff.

Oh and I (used to?) play music. #Guitar I still have and sometimes play, #Saxophone I used to have a couple of decades ago, I had 6 months of Drum lessons, and played Bass for our school band in Rockquest in the late 90's.
I have never done anything that cool since.

Oh I live in New Zealand, Aotearoa.

I’m so thin! I measured myself around my little toe!”

Yes it is an “engineering marvel” but its also bullshit marketing - at least every single article talking about it is.

@davidhmccoy @mookie you’re arguing with someone who is clearly not going to buy it. 😆

So defensive!

@davidhmccoy @mookie so if I have a slot at the advertised thickness it doesn’t fit through it. So, it is not “marketing”, it is lying. That’s all.

which used #ThinkPad model should I recommend to my friend who wants to run Windows 11? she's a new college student, needs MS 365 and not much more. it should be small-ish, robust and quite cheap - maybe 500EUR max.

I was thinking this T14s maybe?

her dad wanted to buy a yucky consumer HP, please help!!

I'm sure other people have noted this but at some point we went from talking about "social network sites" to talking about "social media sites".

At first, the network was the thing that mattered. Then, the media was the thing that mattered.

A quick Google Trends query shows the shift might have happened around 2012:

Fedi people!
I am looking for resources of MS-DOS programs.
Something I can put on a diskete (or two or three) to use it with an 1996 486 CPU (I think 25 MHz), with 16MB of RAM, MS-DOS 6.22 & Windows 3.1

Game, office, other programms…
Everything goes. I should just be able to get it onto a Diskette, because the target machine only have this interface available.

Please boost ♻️

I don’t think there will be an album this year. I usually make the music around this time every year… but I have a middle ear infection and it’s making my ears ring so much I can’t sleep… so I haven’t been able to wear headphones to create music.
Anyway, here’s one of the heavier songs I’ve been working on.

This season again and again I'm trying to capture the magical dance of the fireflies. I internally debated between the zoomed in photo fully filled with fireflies OR a vertical with the visual flow, some water streaks and shape of the rocks leading me in. As you can see, I have chosen the latter. For good or otherwise.

@mookie I’m not sure why consumers put up with this rubbish.

It is extremely insulting to even presume that consumers would accept this. And yet we do? Surely there are consumer advocacy groups or something…
