Exploring, failing, backtracking, just to identify the only viable path forward. And then scarred, stumbling forward into the future. Learning.
Boring and steady. Knowing little and questioning a lot. Mostly harmless.

This is an experimental scrapbook space. A collection of stuff I want to keep in a form somewhere on the spectrum between a blog and a shoe-box full of scraps, cut-outs, quotes, links and reading notes and sometimes my own silly thoughts about them.
Perhaps it might be of marginal interest to others too, but I don't care that much.

flagrant bigotry as the bar for intervening to protect vulnerable people from a poorly run instance

Can you spot the circles?
It took me a long time. Once you see them, they'll seem obvious.

I laughed way too hard at this. May have pulled something.

I couldn't help but feel that #XKCD 1269 was relevant to the #selfhosted #Mastodon #fediverse.
@freemo and on top, now I sent you a DM and I do not see it in the DM “timeline”. What’s going on?

It got busy and buzzy with so many people joining here around, but there’s something else to observe in the bubble I move around: people are friendly, welcoming and very helpful. That’s nice for a change. And then I read in the morning news that the world is falling apart. 🤔

I CW things voluntarily because I don't like to upset people. But I would NEVER demand anyone CW anything they want to say. Nobody should.
Choose who you follow based on whether you're comfortable with their posts or not. Don't be demanding others censor themselves for you.
It’s much busier here around suddenly. Maybe it’s time to weed out my timeline once again 🤔 .
outdoor weather sensor (request for advice)
I would like to get an outdoor weather sensor. Requirements:
- temperature, pressure, humidity, no wind sensor is needed (this is for a balcony in an apartment building, so wind sensor would measure only some irrelevant turbulence anyway)
- no need for graphic display
- wireless connected
- ideally “readable” by some smartphone app, possibly integrated with home assistant, or some such
- cheap - this is a hobby interest, not something to waste money on
- reasonably accurate, but again, this is not a pro app
- HW-wise ideally should work out of the box, no HW tinkering - some minor SW tinkering would be OK-ish
Any advice what devices I should look for?
@piggo ?
