@globcoco @freemo Ok chat tomorrow :)

@globcoco @freemo Ok just looked him up

https://www.robhopkins.net/

If we can get someone like that on board, here, it may really boost us, I suspect a lot of people would prefer the way the fediverse works, given that Totnes tried to block a Costa Coffee from opening, in support of all the small independent shops.

@globcoco @freemo Well close to Totnes, not sure who Rob Hopkins is,

@globcoco @freemo sure we can carry on tomorrow,

Bonne nuit too ( I understand some French at least)

@globcoco @freemo Ah yeah, Totnes, a local town here in Devon has a lot of people who are in to this.

http://reconnectonline.co.uk/ is a local magazine with quite a few articles and such.

The tech jam was involved with a project, however one of the people we worked with (well sort of ) was in to the communication networks found with fungai, (microcondria or something)

@globcoco @freemo Sounds good, what we should be promoting, and there is a link between a healthy body and healthy mind - essential for study

@globcoco @freemo
I have put this on the forum
https://discourse.qoto.org/t/health-fitness-and-mental-health/334

If we add stuff to replies and I can add to the main post, collect resources together the work out where to put this.

@globcoco @freemo That looks good, we need to collect all these courses up, and then have a section for them, not sure what we would call the section.

Maybe more Holistic something or other,

In the meantime we can always put under Miscellaneous

@globcoco @freemo I think that is why they have courses for that age group.

If we list stuff that is open to all, we also avoid falling in to a trap and being accused of discrimination.

@globcoco @freemo
Just added links to the 2x 24 hr courses for Maths with OpenLearn.

@globcoco @freemo On the other end for adults here, we can do 'recreational' courses. https://www.southdevon.ac.uk/?s=recreational-course

I am partly doing the Astronomy Orion course as a recreational course. so a different world, so we are already listing courses for the more 'academic' or 'adventurous'

@globcoco @freemo One of the things I don't really want to promote on the forum is things like this

https://eatthatfrog.ac.uk/empowering-enterprise/

Only open to 18-24 year olds. I feel anything we promote should be open to anyone of any age.

After all there are code of conducts within free software projects about equality.

So sure there may be some lower age limits but no upper age limits.

Not sure if this is the right way to go about things, but I just feel everything these days is about Young people and after a certain age you're on a sort of scrap heap
