@globcoco @hansw LOL, thank you!
I really had fun there, a great crowd, friendly, intelligent, sensitive. We had fast chat, the pleroma systems seem to encourage that -- when you come to mastodon it really feels. Ponderous. Slooooow....
And I saw so many people with the "banned for [insert reason here]" that I thought it was a neat idea, and joined.
Later used it here as well.
^^
I wonder beside its technical points if you have prefered instances you love.
Because of the vibe that people bring in the instances, the subjects talked about and the dynamic of the exchange.
Of course I know, a lot may have to do with the tech but if you could separate the 2, what would it be for you?

I think a lot of people can relate to this. Latest from IOPScience Website:-
The feelings you get when you discover something new

You don't need to use hashtags in all posts, they are useful when applied lightly and with care.
I use a couple, as I mentioned -- and for me, nomad on the lanes of the Fediverse, they allow me to find posts no matter where. That is so very cool.
I absolutely despise the idiots (typical at instagram) that put hash tags in every word in a post; that is not only ugly, but a wasteful use of computing resources.
The idea is that hash tags will be indexed -- which requires processing time and storage. If we polute the database with noobie, senseless tags like instastooges do, it only slows down ANY searches using hash tags. Nice job, noobs. NOT.
Karl disappeared back in December, and I have missed him much, He posted a couple of toots sometime later, but that was it.
We had some great conversations -- like with you, they brought back memories and allowed me to wax poetic, which we both enjoyed. Inspirational, pleasurable. Fireside chats.
But we have to accept life's transitional nature, and ejoy the moment, while still honouring the people we remember with fondness.
You are missed, dear friend. Be well, wherever the road takes you, @Full_marx .
Ok, so use sparingly and wisely. Got that.
The exchange you got are to be cherished for sure.
Maybe he'll be back or not but what he gave you - as inspiring you to nourish your own creativity - is priceless and beautiful

Russian developer and antifascist activist Viktor Filinkov has used his last word in court to explain the persecutor how #PGP encryption works.
Using email encryption does not make you a terrorist!

Email has replaced letters in lots of places. Yet, email privacy lags far behind the privacy of a letter. Today everyone understands that an email is as private as a postcard. Now is the time to act upon this knowledge:

@kev It looks really nice, and the off grey text colour is inline with the accessibility guidelines I am learning about in the free code camp course I am doing.
Keep up the good work
Hello my dear friend.
It took me a hell of a long time to write to you.
I think I wanted to level what you shared and I guess it made me quite speechless. Still am actually. 😊
You definitely know how to write that's for sure!
Even before reading the body of your post, the title *Nomad is my Heart* resonated so strongly with me that I was already moved before reading the rest of it.
A nomad heart means a curious explorer with an avid desire to open oneself up and go further that its own beliefs and limitation on what he-she takes for granted in life and what he-she thinks can do or not do.
That's definitely what traveling has helped me with.
Another side of it has been about the subject of how I use resources: I can sense when energies goes down and I have for a long time thought it was my own fault so for a place to recharge I let it be. I guess it was also good for me to recharge my own batteries and Yes discovering new places brings me always excitement.
With permaculture principles I'm hoping I will some day learn what it means to help make a place renewed recharged and vibrant...
Doing what you do and sharing who you are be it in poetic form or a more factual one is definitely helping a lot of us.
So keep on exploring my friend and share your meandering with us.
You friend.🤗
Yes it can quite hard.
I did for awhile then was a bit more loose.
Then back again.
But with some doodles you can mix and match between words and pictures.
Now I haven't used it as much as before. I even took a class on it and met my partner at this occasion😊.
Know that you can also use Graphic Facilitation which allows for more freedom...

I was telling one of my co-workers about the fediverse:
Does anyone know of an instance for CAD and 3D modeling/printing enthusiasts?

Like, being able to write CSS inside of a custom element without worrying about styles bleeding in or out is great. Being able to pass CSS variables in through the shadow host is great too.
Developers have said loud and clear with stuff like Vue, Svelte, React CSS-in-JS, etc. that they want scoped styles. Shadow DOM delivers that. It's just too bad that there's all this other baggage that isn't terribly useful, and can be actively harmful.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is only 51% on Rotten Tomatoes which is garbage because that's my all-time favorite movie.
Yes! That would be awesome!

Update :
I have just finished posting a new Suggestion issue at Glitch-Social's Github.
...which summarizes the findings I described in a Forum post, and requests consideration of the idea of adding these enhancements into the Glitch-Social code base.
If that was done, and the source for Eskuero's Collapsed Mastodon is available for review and adoption, all users could benefit, without the need of using an add-on, and better compatibility with future releases as changes are made.
The Suggestion is on this page.

Having created the @Fosstodon_Bot I thought I might as well introduce myself. My day job is being Pool Operator and Inspector. While at night I run a web-hosting service. Overall I'm not a interesting person. I just like to take things that aren't broken, break them to see how then work, and put it back together with duct tape.
Have you thought of using perennials and permaculture principles?
With a bit of thought and great design you could have a resilient garden that would allow you to enjoy it fully and feel ok when you're away.

@hansw I have planted a veggie garden here at home this year; have done it in the past, but not when I am on extensive travel, as it requires care.
Went looking for little plants and the garden centers are pretty much bare -- one lady at one told me they had a lot of people who never did this before, now coming to get plants for food growing.
Resulting in unexpected shortage. Still haven't found the swiss chard I wanted. Other plants are in the ground, weather has been good this week.
