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.

Today is National Punctuation Day! So let’s talk about the interrobang. “What the heck is that‽” you ask/exclaim?
In 1962, advertising agency director Martin K. Speckter had seen one too many sentences ending with ?!. So he suggested that we generate a new punctuation character called “interrobang.” He wrote up his recommendation for the publication TYPEtalks.

foxylad@mastodon.nzDONT: Mock evangelicals because the rapture didn't happen.
DO: Tell them the rapture DID happen and they got left behind.

This week, #GuitarTuesday was also #NewGuitarDay for me, so I figured I'd share a picture of my new mistress: a gorgeous LTD Snakebyte 🎸🤘 (James Hetfield signature)
I just love the Explorer shape (being a #Metallica fan back in the 90's *might* be part of the explanation), but only the "original" one... Except for this awesome design by ESP!
I pushed back for a while as I didn't *need* a new #guitar (I already have a '91 ObG Explorer), but hey, #CarpeDiem baby 😉

Andrew (Television Executive)
ajroach42@retro.socialHey! Do you want to be on TV?
It doesn't take much! Our simplest show is made with a webcam and some stock footage (our most complex shows use multiple 4k cinema cameras, but we almost never air those!!)
I would like to help get Fedi people on Federated (streaming) television.
Let's make it happen!

ricci@discuss.systemsTwo patreon puzzles from @nervous_jessica and @nervous_jesse
Yes the Jupiter one is actually completed, it's mapped onto a cube so that it's edgeless and can be assembled in many ways, this was just how mine happened to come out

I reached 10,000 blog posts today.
Not sure what to think, or how best to celebrate, so I wrote whatever this was. Coffee!

Privacy Guides
privacyguides@neat.computerAre you planning on attending a protest soon? Your smartphone can be an essential tool, but it's also a huge risk to your privacy, security, and safety. If you decide to bring one along, you need to keep yourself protected:
(🔥 hot tip: this advice is still great even if you aren't hitting the streets!)
