Just go and talk to someone working in retail or fast food like they’re a human being. Ask them how their day’s going and thank them. You’ll notice how unaccustomed they are to be treated decently and how much it brightens their day.

I am a #Python developer of a decade or so, with four years of data engineering experience on #AWS and #Azure, looking for work anywhere in #Aotearoa #NZ #NewZealand . Here is my CV: zacharyspector.com

@Zeke365 Maybe something, that when seen, causes acknowledgement of a truth.

@abetterjulie This looks awesome! Interactive fiction is so much fun and sadly overlooked by many people. I bet this took a lot of work!

We started watching her in the Nightbitch movie tonight...pretty interesting so far.

I need to find a syncing encrypted journal software for Android and Linux that can be trusted. Needs to have the ability to work offline for those times I may not have good cell signal. I pay for enough stuff as it is, so looking for something free. I'll donate later if I find it's working well. Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be great if I could use my YunoHost server or Nextcloud.

In 2025 the biggest superpower will be the ability to be hopeful and optimistic. Not as a way of avoiding the hard stuff, but in the sense of knowing that change is possible, that nationalism and tribalism can be defeated, and that dystopia is not a preordained fate.

@ben I would add that those who experienced good times and things, that no longer exist, should testify that such times and things are possible.

@eriner This really is the best publicly available cold storage we have at this point. I do this with regular Blu-ray, but do not have the process perfected. It really can get quite complicated, which is what you want to avoid. A lot of the knowledge in this area is rapidly disappearing from the internet. There’s a whole generation that hasn’t been exposed to optical storage. I’ve used par2, which isn’t bad, but settled with ZFS.

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.
