Heidi has been playing with the wood carvings her great grandfather made. I wonder if he had that in mind while working on them.

@mary is drinking from some glasses we got from Arby’s in the late 90’s.

Trust has declined more in places where the ecosystem is less structured by TV and more structured by social media.

Trust dynamics can be (better) explained by looking at media structures.

This also suggests new avenues for restoring trust.

@tanjaostman That’s not a lot of daylight. Do you guys have any large indoor public spaces to keep sane?

@Big_Diggity He’s back safe and sound. It wasn’t as bad as the time when we were going through customs and they abruptly woke her up and snatched him out of her arms.

Yesterday, Heidi's lovie (Buddy the Sloth) got sucked into a pneumatic tube at a local children's play place. He had to spend the night in the wall until they could open it up and retrieve him this morning.

@lobau It is a bit sluggish and I don't carry it all the time. I bought it when it was a little cheaper. It was absolutely painless to set up.

@lobau Librem 5 by Purism fits that description. I have one and it works pretty well.

@DMakarios I listen to a lot of audio books and thought that was pretty good. You were quite clear. There were a couple of times where you spoke a little quickly and it was hard to understand. I didn't catch what the whisper said. I think having pauses in the narration, at appropriate moments, helps the listener to visualize and be immersed in the scene. You have such great descriptive powers! You should let the listeners soak it all in.🙂

I seems weird that the time between now and the release of the movie Elf is greater than the time between Elf and A Christmas Story.

“I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air -- that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes…

@killyourfm I honestly think Microsoft wants that and wants to distance itself from the operating system business. Why else would they be so hostile to users? They’re trying to make what profits they can, but know Linux and other OS’s are good enough. There is no insanely profitable future for them in that space, and the longer they hang out there, the higher the opportunity cost.

@mdione I’ve just discovered Nextcloud and like it, but run XMPP and IRC too. I like XMPP because I prefer protocols, but none of the clients work perfectly between each other. Nextcloud uses XMPP for chat I think and has been pretty seamless. IRC is simple and you could host a ton of people on a potato, but it’s unencrypted by default and you have to be online to get a message.
