There's a really good community feature on here called groups. It works like this:

1. Follow a group's account
2. You will start seeing posts on that topic
3. You can post to the group by @-ing it

For example, follow @tea to see posts about tea.

It's more powerful than following hashtags, as all group posts are actively pushed to all of the group's members. No one misses anything.

just like the bredenoord generators kept the hackers warm at camp, the cooling units at #gpn21 provided us with a sick beat to wait in line for some delicious gulasch.

sampled for your entertainment, enjoy :D

Every base counting system is base 10 if named by its own convention.

Spent a full day trying to troubleshoot a hot ground in my shed power. After hours of tearing apart the ceiling I finally saw the shitshow that had been wired in.

Tore it all out and started fresh.

So much better, no more 240v zaps

My server is shouting at me but Im too sick to fix it.. bleargh

Why cant I ever find a damn SD card that works when I need one.

Does a Linux-powered supercomputer in a church still have daemons?

The bobbin winder on my 100+ yr old sewing machine wont spin bobbins anymore. I managed to hand wind one in time to respond to an emergency the kiddo had but big sad on this one.

Morning brain says drunk benchpress was a bad move. Ouchies..

Reorganizing my office is slow, because I keep encountering old projects that I want to fix up. These fiber optic hyperbolic paraboloids from two years ago had LED strips secured with duct tape that was starting to peel off, so I printed new covers to replace the tape, and clips to secure them to the frame mechanically. I added the STL files to the project write up which is on my blog: geekmomprojects.com/fiber-opti

Stop hating on lazy people. We didn't even do anything.

Pipes burst and now my kitchen is flooding through the ceiling. Send patience and waterproof clothing..

I hope everyone has a glorious or at least bearable weekend.
I am hoping to have the spoons to make a handful of slingshot frames for friends interested in learning to shoot one when they visit.
Anyone got any weekend projects on the bubble?

Last retoot: I am going to single handedly being back þ and ð to the English alphabet. And 'ae' too, if I can. "th" can go duck itself. Tired of ðis nonsense. Þe fact þat we lost two amazing letters? Alðough ðey may be lost for now, I know we can bring ðem back.

Biohacking, x-ray 

So, I went to a doctor today to talk about removing the shards of one of my #biohacking magnets and the whole other magnet. These are sensing magnets, NOT the G3 chips.

So I'm hoping this surgeon agrees to removing them, or I may suffer heavy metal poisoning. That's the biohacking risk you take with alpha tests I guess.

If you're wondering, please see this picture of my hands:

I am getting the orange ones removed. I will NOT be getting any further #implants in my fingers. See the alt text in the picture for a description of the #microchips

I will consider getting more microchips (LEDs) and placing them in my arms.
