@Kancept BeOS avatar gets you a follow!

@levisan wait, no—grade 4 actually. i was in canada for grade 3.

@levisan in bangladesh we had rifle training in grade 3! (americans ran the school.) dont know that i’ve had the opportunity to shoot a real gun since ive been in canada though.

@mike oh i think i remember matrix now — it was gonna be like a fediverse-ish slack replacement originally? think i was listening to a podcast by the creators, but it’s been a while, if im even remembering the right project.

@mike matrix is new to me but will check it out!

@mike privacy as the main thing yet still nice to use and is good at group chats, attachments, etc. default end-to-end encryption, no apparent backdoors govs can exploit (basically it’s what telegram pretends to be)

@Noupside fwiw, i used to be like this, but am pretty sure it was some chronic nutrient deficiencies, which i derided at first as i ate pretty healthy (i thought), but i get better really fast nowadays since supplementing vit d, magnesium bisglycinate, omega 3, some amino acids, occasionally zinc + b vitamins, (and making sure i get good red meat and vegetables more often.)

@a11yMel i’ve only ever attended ones i paid for myself, but that has affected my choices for sure! i’ve never paid more than $250 for a ticket, i don’t think.

@schizanon it is weird, even if the slur didn’t exist! nigeria too. and the guineas sorta as well. in niger’s case in point wonder how much continued french colonial presence had to do w the name staying

@schizanon interesting! i don’t know if i’d correlate counting with the results though. seems more like the crows matched a pattern of caws to a specific result, but not necessarily that they are counting the caws per-se. still cool!

@jbwharris i think mine is just the upper half though

@jbwharris ohhh i have one of these (came with a bunch of tools in an estate auction lot) but didnt know what it was for!

@mike i often pitch friends and family on signal for messaging! mixed results.

@levisan kinda want to let this play out!

@freeschool neat! what part of the world are you in? did you build the greenhouse? have been thinking about doing one as part of a shed project

@alan haven’t ever been ice fishing, but if i ever have the opportunity, a comfortable seat seems like a must!

@alan i mean, even a hatchback can transport those things if you get creative, but i hear ya!

@alan bed is about 6.5ft x 4.5ft. the sides come down easily too so it can be a flatbed, (though that's about the only configuration i havent used)

this week, the kei truck hauled:
- antique bed + mattress
- couch + large cat condo
- dresser, desk, chairs, shelves, misc (helped family move)
- several hundred KG of cement + forms
- corner display hutch
