I think this will be cheaper.

@lo You painted it! Guess I missed that.

@kelbot I still verbally smack my employees' hands every time they put a space instead of an underscore in a filename. I think having them scp a list of files might teach them.

@kelbot I love e-ink and wish there were 20ish" monitors available that didn't break the bank.

@lo Both sad and true. Hope you get to see them next year and that the trip is extra amazing.

@reverenddaeyunkimphd Welcome! It looks like you have had a very busy and fulfilling life so far. What are you doing these days? Are you a Reverend for a congregation?

@blueberry I didn't cheat but it took some time to realize the Dakotas were missing.

I had a good idea today for a software project, but I am not a programmer. What I need is a super experienced grey beard for advice. Where does one find/hire such a person?

The problem I have with these companies is that they go out of their way to abuse their users/customers. That IS their business and I don't want to feed that bear. Imagine a company that went out of their way to prevent abuse, educate users, allow real choice, all the while improving lives. Come on companies like Purism, TAKE MY MONEY! @dallin@librem.one

@kelbot I'm a surveyor, and using the equipment we have now, robots, drones, scanners, etc...I can in some cases do more in a day than a party of 4 could accomplish in weeks 20 years ago. It truly is amazing, and a little scary.

@normandc Sorry to hear that. A lot of vets around here use guilt tactics to try to get people to spend exorbitant amounts of money on their pets, with surgeries and whatnot . I hope you got a good one who doesn't play those games.

@lo I accept your challenge. I call it Confusion, oil on canvas.

@lo This makes more sense now.

@lo @adellerichardson I think you were 11.

@Johanna Is it an issue of the congregation not coming together or is the leadership making the decision?

I read some Of Plimoth Plantation, by William Bradford around Thanksgiving time every year. For those who don't know, it is a firsthand account of the people we know as the Pilgrims in the US who landed 400 years ago. I usually read about their first year 1620 in book 2, but this time branched out to 1623. Here is an excerpt.

Basically, communism didn't work; even for these hardcore moral people. Private property turned failure to success. Nothing new under the sun.

@normandc You're making me think that a netbook with a cell card+SIP trunk+Bluetooth and bag might be more functional. SD cards just suck. Hope your persistence pays off and that my Librem 5 works without too much brain damage, IF it shows up.
