How are y'all doing? I'm feeling a little down right now, mostly because a lot of people seem to be being very ugly to one another. There is no grace, understanding, or wisdom to be found in their speech. I urge you to be better than that! Don't live in an echo chamber and don't believe everything you read. Be quick to listen, slow to anger, and slow to speak. Even though we are all pretty much strangers don't we all want to live a life of freedom, in peace, with the love of others?

@emelie I understand and can relate. I hope you get to see and hug them soon!

@Kathuman That's cool! @emelie did you ever hear about this? https://science.gu.se/english/News/News_detail/japanese-gourmet-mushroom-found-in-sweden.cid942344

@emelie That's actually a great idea. I wonder how new vs. old growth would be different.

Nice! Think I prefer Corona Kilos to Pandemic Pounds...

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org I staked out a curved wall for our carpenters to form up. They lowered the wall depth last minute and just dug it out.

Well, it was pretty before they tore it out...

@mkwadee You say you're into math, maybe you can help me visualize what's going on in this optimization?

I'd really like to try this out if I can get approval, but I have a hard time understanding how something that is supposed to be inefficient can be inefficient. #wind

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org She is. They broke through her window and hit her in the face, but it's mostly superficial. It definitely freaked her and her mother out. As she was trying to get away she hit someone. She reported it to the police, but they were like, "You did what you had to do."

A friend's daughter was attacked today by a group of protesters in Denver. She was in her work truck just trying to go to work. Anyone who actually cared about justice or others wouldn't do something like that. #georgefloyd

"I think I'd be hurting it very badly if we didn't use it anymore," Trump said from the White House. "We have other sites we can use, I guess, or we'd have to develop other sites."

@Gargron How would you feel about a government, maybe even the US, deploying a system utilizing Mastodon to make a public social network, or even just a .gov instance. I think Trump turning to the Fediverse might be a good thing overall.

@daniel Nevermind, scrubbed until Saturday.

Anyone tuned in to the SpaceX launch?

@helby@www.librepunk.club It's good to see that there are still fans of the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" club. If only I could convince some younger folks about the wisdom of not using/relying on all of these 3rd party run apps.

@mkwadee What causes the ability to see any of the side that is away from the sun? Is it starlight or light reflecting from the earth?

Seriously, who throws a firework at someone's house at 3am? Glad our dogs weren't out, because it went off right where they would have been. I get up around 4:30 anyways, but I doubt the wife and baby will get back to sleep.

@charlescodes I'm taking my time, only 3 lessons in. I've heard good things about Rust. I program as a hobby and for basic things I need. I really want to understand lower level stuff and get to the point where I could actually contribute to a project. The learning curve is steep for non professionals.
