@pvinis As I update the QOTO fork I do announce it. We are actually trying to hire a developer now to help out so I dont have to do it all myself.
@pvinis You are welcome.
QOTO is a fork of vanilla mastodon with many unique features, as such we no longer track versions with mainstream mastodon, our version has no meaning compared to mainstream anymore. We pull in both new features and bug fixes piecemeal.
That said we do have a few features from vanilla that were newly added we plan to bring in soon, mostly minor things though.
I thought it would be nice to start my Mastodon adventure with a #Mondog (what a lovely adventure into cuteness this hashtag is). This is Jess, my family's eldest dog. Her hobbies are splashing in puddles and playing fetch with every toy imaginable.
To this extent I'm really interested to know how the age breakdown of people on the #Fediverse. On one hand it would seem to make sense to me that most people here remember the "old internet" before the centralization and they're here to rekindle that flame of independence. On the other hand the youths are generally pretty up on this whole technology thing. I grew up on the internet and since then smartphones have become even more ubiquitous.

@zazu Sounds like my day .... oh well i got shit in order by the end
@petrikursula All doggos and puppers on our instance are required to report immediately to the Admin for cuddles and treats!
@icedquinn I feel judged right now...
@cangieperezr I dont think its a fossile, but still a cool find :)

FYI to all my Electronics people out there.
Did you know you can represent capacitance and inductance with a complex number and by doing so you would incorporate ESR (equivalent series resistance) into your equations. Essentially you dont have to model with idealized components and add in the parasitics manually, you can add the parasitics directly into the capacitance or inductance of your components!
See the following equation in my blog and the subsequent explanation if you want some further details and examples: http://jeffreyfreeman.me/an-indepth-look-at-duals-and-their-circuits/#mjx-eqn-realcap

@JensHannemann For sure, time permitting I want to be much more active.
@battaglia01 Yes latex has a kown bug right now, it will be fixed in the short term.
@robryk yes i have a fix for this (I hope) and am working on putting it out
Hi folks, I really enjoy Mastodon. It does remind me of the olden days of #irc and the #BBS era (in a good way).
I teach computer engineering technology at the University of Kentucky. I'm originally from #Germany.

@JensHannemann Thank you. I can say it will certainly motivate me to be more active in IEEE as well.
@derickflorian thank you
