#QOTO announcement
Hi all we did NOT migrate the servers yesterday but instead just begun that now. It shouldn't effect anything until I redirect the DNS in a few hours. At that point there may be momentary downtime. I will keep everyone informed ont he schedule.
Not sure who put the @arxiv_cs bot on QOTO.org but I ❤️ you.
The Sun is 150 million km away. That's a greater distance than any human has ever travelled.
Every second 1.8 trillion trillion trillion photons of sunlight hit the surface of Earth and, despite that distance, they still make the plants grow and feel warm against your skin.
And honestly, I never stop being amazed by this.

Ubuntu philosophy
“In the old days when we were young, a traveller through our country would stop at a village and he didn’t have to ask for food or for water. Once he stops, the people give him food, entertain him. That is one aspect of Ubuntu – but it will have various aspects.”
– Nelson Mandela
Reminder:
Data caps are a lie. Internet access, for the vast majority of users today, should be like an electric utility - on or off.
The data caps and other encroachments by the corporate ISP industry are the result of the long game they have been playing for 25+ years.
Many of them used existing infrastructure and entered into agreements to share wires back in the day, and today they want those wires for themselves and they want to override net neutrality to keep you exploited.

Seems like my #VerticalGardening is working... spinach, cabbages, lettuce and 2 tomatoes (just to experiment). The fertility is replenish by #composting kitchen scraps from an increasing amount of neighbors, which I plan to repay in food.
That's just a test, if it works properly I expect my yard walls to be covered by fall =D
