@piggo Huh, what do those bags look like?
@ambulocetus oh gods, that's outright evil. 😅
@hvangalen Dus zou het altijd perfect werken tijdens een hittegolf? 😋
@josemanuel That's your opinion. I like it when people like my posts, thank-you-very-much! Comments are better if you want a discussion/conversation going, but a like can be sufficient.
If you want emoji reactions, hop over to a Misskey server or one of those others allowing those. I wouldn't mind Mastodon having those either, but this instance just doesn't have it.
@Hortense Hehe, well it's all up to you. :) If you don't feel the need for social media, then that's fine!
And, hi! :)
... Oh lol. A coworker had trouble connecting her work laptop to job via VPN at home. So my boss went to troubleshoot with her.
Turns out that she didn't connect the laptop to the internet at all at her home. "Did I have to connect my laptop to my WiFi?" ... well, yes, yes... how did she think the thing would have access to VPN?
She's actually quite a diginoob, this is not the first incident. Keeps the job interesting I suppose. 😂
She's a great teacher otherwise. Just make sure you've explained anything techy beforehand. In detail. ;)

@knuppelbeer Dat zijn we wel van plan om die lessen leuk te maken. :)
@knuppelbeer Het is mijn werk, ja. :) Ik speel niet altijd met robots maar we hebben besloten dat we die aftandse robots nu eens goed onder handen nemen en de leerkrachten weer goedwerkende robots geven en wat extra lesmateriaal.
We're searching for the right sizes of stuff that can be pushed with the bulldozer cover on those robots. I think I've found the perfect one, a lightweight plastic bowl of 12 by 12 cm in diameter. (The grid is 15 by 15) We can do the perfect Sokoban scenario with this.
Coworker volunteered to paint the bowl. He loves to be creative with his hands. ;)

I also decided to check out which of the Blue-Bots are calibrated by letting them rotate 4 times to form a circle. The new penholders are great for this.
Number 3 and 5 have the worst results (the circles aren't closed at all) so I've put them aside as they won't be great to test with. I'll have to examine them sometime.
#Work #BlueBot
My coworker is very enthusiastic about the new accessoires we got for the Blue-Bot and we both had plenty of ideas. So our first step is to prepare a whiteboard with a grid so we can try to put our ideas at work.
Chances are we can create some lesson materials, we have the means to do so.

@ceoln Well, I did finish reading a book so I'm all good, heh. ;)
@iPabloSB And when you're finished with The Last Airbender, you can go watch the Legend of Korra after. :D
Been testing out the new pen holders for the Blue-Bots. Don't mind the schematics of something else on the smaller piece of paper, that is for the Tovertafel (magic table) which we're also busy with setting up.
Anyway, yeah, you can see in the bigger piece of paper that the drawing went out of bounds. I had to scrub the floor clean. 😬 😅
We've got some nice plans for this one, kinda in the idea of tangram. We'll make a few pre-defined drawings, and then the kids can try and replicate it on their own with those robots.
Of course they can also make their own drawings. 😋

Oh, right. Forgot alt-text:
A desk surface with a heap of silver colored accus, some still in plastic packaging. There's one old red accu in that mess. On the right is a Blue-Bot upside-down. There's also a screwdriver visible. In the background a keyboard. Generally it's just an all-around mess of accus scattered everywhere.
Can we please stop throwing around the threat of defederation?
Defederation shouldn't happen unless an instance is a cesspool full of terrible behavior with an admin unwilling to deal with it.
Annoyances like spam can be dealt with by admins without scorching the Earth and going nuclear.
Lets not turn the #Fediverse, where instance are supposed to be part of a larger collection, into islands of instances that have cut themselves off from others because of annoyances.
@lydiaconwell I found the Tom Bombadil part sort of amusing too. Where I found it a real snorefest, and where I also stopped at, were those horse people. Even in the movies I loathed them.
Main account is now on @trinsec
I've resigned as moderator on Qoto.org since 29-aug-2023.
This one is now a backup account, my activities on Qoto will be low.

Used to be on another mastodon server regularly, but it's been inaccessible since November 2020. So I've decided to join Qoto instead! I like the features this server has to offer.
