Seeing @moonman talk about a power outage at the casino reminds me of being in #Baton_Rouge, #LA, several years back. There was a big storm moving in (with tornadoes and everything) and lots of wind and rain, but it was drive to the casino or starve, so Mark and I met there, while S went to a different casino in another parish. We were already inside and eating when the power w… -

@guizzy I discussed a similar idea with my daughter-in-law last night. It turns out #GS3 (about 9.5 months old) only got three gifts (a set of blocks, a stuffed animal, and a three-pack of Dr Seuss books), but if he'd had more, she agreed to put them on a closet shelf for a month or two. -

I'm not going to call out anyone by name, because I'm guaranteed to miss someone. Just be aware that I'm glad to see almost all of you in my timelines and I hope you have a great holiday today. -

Honestly, I would prefer to use #Diaspora over the "15 columns" Fediverse server, but whenever I log into my D* account, almost all my contacts have been silent for years and my stream is full of posts from newsbots squatting on the tags I've subscribed to. Whenever there is a real post, it is usually some political thing, rather than something I actually want to see. (No, simp… -

Congratulations, David, you've discovered that the #twin_parties and people holding extreme left / right political views hate their opponents, believing those opponents to be immoral and unethical at their core. -

Opened my presents tonight during tonight's videochat with #sonTwo and his wife and son, consisting of a photo album filled with photos of #GS3, some refrigerator magnets (also with his picture), and a hoodie.
Realized that my grandson is not the only one celebrating his first Christmas. One of my sisters also has a grandchild celebrating her first Christmas. -

@moonman You could have patched #Pump.io to support AP. Since its protocol is the direct ancestor of ActivityPub, much of what you'd need is likely already there in basic form.
I suspect that it would already have happened if Alex (currently main maintainer) wasn't busy with college. -

When that one brother texts me, I know it means that he wants something (always for someone else). Immediately makes me very tense. Inside, I want to say "What do you want this time?"
Now he's texting to ask me to help his friend move in a few days.
I realize he's known this guy for over 35 years, but I feel like it would not be acceptable if I texted him to help one of my friends move. -

Face it. You're late. Ship them with "belated" cards on Thursday. -

I remember #makr.io. Within days after it was announced, I requested an account, found it dissatisfying, closed my account. In many ways, I thought it would have been better as "makrcities", without any (known) relationship to #Diaspora. . I later felt bad about how negative my reaction had been. They tried hard to shed the unsatisfiable demands of D*'s users, but those same … -

@sean Evan was hugely focused on #Pump.io (instead of us), until his resources ran out and he got involved with a new start up. This is also when some of his Pump-related domains were lost.
.
It isn't surprising that he's active on #Twitter and #Facebook, just that Pump is still not compatible with anything else. (And that his personal Pump instance, E14N.com is gone.) -

@simsa03 It is good for them to escape the kitchen, but I fear that dispersing solely into corporate employment will make them more vulnerable in the long term. $CORPORATION cares not whether they live or die, so I would like to see some fraction starting their own businesses in fields other than foodservice. -

https://github.com/lehenbauer/tclspi !tcltk extension to access the !RasPi’s #SPI bus. In Tcl’2019, Day 3, someone did a LED lights demo with this (after a similar demo using !Arduino).
Like other such demos, it gets boring quickly, but the point is to show the possibilities, and to provide a starting point for further learning.
