@acnewberry I've done a few projects in Five Points and it's like a 3rd world country. No way I'd even think about running a business there. It's sad because some of my older co-workers said it was once a ritzy place to live. People with thinking like Candi CdeBaca are one reason why we can't have nice things.

@ned You should get some smaller boxes to fill that painful void.

Heard about PineNote, but hadn't seen one. Looks pretty cool!

Just found an old iPhone 4 in the basement. Runs a softphone app, XMPP client, OpenVPN, terminal emulator, and media player just fine. Super computers...collecting dust.

@matthew I haven’t used Thunderbird with PGP, but I do know that I’ve had to trust imported keys before they worked.

@CharismaticBatman Ugh, that hits too close to home.

Made some NC red slaw with purple cabbage….pretty good! Would be better with some BBQ.

@atyh Re-reading The Martian and Mark’s been toting all of his panels across the Martian desert so he can re-charge his rover.
kWh/Sol = Pirate-Ninja (his made up unit)

We’ve listened to this sooo many times because Heidi loves it.

@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter I decided to go with Proso millet because it has a history of doing well in my area. I ground some up this evening, tried to blow out the hulls, and made a hot cereal paste. It was in-between grits and cream of wheat and I liked it! Thinking about planting in about a month and might try some other grains.

@mhjohnson We replaced the boilers a few years back at Aurora Central HS and I scanned the boiler room and “steam” tunnels. It was built in the mid 50’s. Though asbestos was everywhere, the whole school could have fit down there. Hundreds of feet of 12’ wide, 7’ tall tunnels.

@atyh Bearable with any savings? I usually get around 28% of my youtube original audio.

@atyh
ffmpeg -i 'input.aac' -c:a libopus -b:a 24000 'output.opus'

Not everyone will agree with me, but I would love to see more Stargate.

@atyh @gabriel @bonifartius I remember doing the math for lead/acid batteries. If I had a huge bank, didn't discharge but 5-10%, and performed a little maintenance, they would last almost 100 years.

@BlackAzizAnansi I think a lot of people saw what happened to Miles Dyson and the black community just didn't want to be a part of that future.

@atyh Do you use the Opus file format? It works really well for me. Voice usually sounds good at 24kb/s. Some kinds of voices even work at 6kb/s.
