It seems weird compared to now, but there wasn’t much homelessness where and when I grew up. Winston-Salem was around 150k people. The small number of people who chose the lifestyle sort of became well known and people helped them out. This lady, known as Night Rider or Bicycle Lady, has been in the public eye for around 35 years. She was recently attacked and is in critical condition. Once upon a time, she was a teacher, but lost a child and was never the same mentally.
I’m not sure how this hasn’t come up before, but Timber and Mesa (our Border Collies) think “guac” and “walk” are synonymous.
Went to check my SIP provider credit balance because I thought after a couple of years it had to be low. Nope! It had only burned $7.50 for 2 phone numbers in that time. We don't use the "land line" all that often, but it definitely comes in handy from time to time.
@mary had dinner tonight with all her sisters so, after I put the princess to bed, I had the opportunity to rewatch Napoleon Dynamite after almost 20 years. Mary just doesn’t get it, but it still makes me laugh!

Palms were offline devices that only synced with your computer when put on a docking station.
You could read and reply to emails offline, book or cancel meetings, and sync with your computer later. The latest versions allowed you to snap pictures and listen to your music.
No servers running constantly. No data spilled everywhere. Days worth of battery on a single charge.
The future stole our cables, and it took our attention span and our privacy with it.
What’s better than a T480 running FreeBSD? Three T480’s running FreeBSD!
Has anyone else noticed that almost every box or package these days is basically impossible to open cleanly because they use too much glue in the packaging?
I was in town and near the FreeBSD Foundation address, so I decided to drop by. It’s just a mailbox.

Salvation at the Graduation!
In this Buddhist dominated country, the non-Christians relatives attended the Bible School Graduation, were just thinking of clicking of a selfie with their children. They got more than what they bargained for... One of the Pastors at the Graduation service, shared the simple Gospel message and gave an alter call, close to 10 people responded and accepted Christ. (Representative picture)
I got excited when I saw that there was a Nextcloud Social app that integrated with the Fediverse. I couldn't get it to work at all.😞
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 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.
