@levisan is the label in question “frisian”? bc you frisians are all the same

took my son to a brantford bulldogs vs soo greyhounds hockey game, accidentally got standing room tickets. and actually, pretty great! might prefer it to actual seats!

@jeremiah hah, not sure if that would make a difference since it’s about clearance from combustible materials, but maybe. they do have an exemption if its a small cooking fire (but you can’t just bring out some marshmallows and say a campfire is for cooking)

@jeremiah hopefully! illegal to have backyard canpfires here anymore, so am aiming to get around it with an indoor wood stove that’s open to the outdoors by having one of the walls open up

@jeremiah and that scrap i just added — hoping to build a shack in our lil backyard with a wood stove

got a walking desk and at the moment it’s being put to the task with a 3km poppy hill challenge for the boy

found out about the voyager via this guy's video: m.youtube.com/watch?v=dg2TT1OJ

the magnetic accessories seem like a great idea. i've got a pretty nice setup already with quick release tripod mounts, but if i were starting over, this does seem like the ticket.

i've been using a moonlander the last few months and have gotten pretty used to it. i actually do use multiple keys on both thumb clusters, but they *are* too far from the rest of the keyboard for me, so i adopted a weird layout w/ the keys shifted inwards ("b" on thumb cluster)

just realized zsa's got a new keyboard out! "voyager": zsa.io/voyager/
looks pretty good! less bulky than their other keyboards, and i bet the thumb clusters are way easier to reach than on moonlander or ergodox.

@jeremiah not sure! haven’t been since i was a teen, but we are planning to hit it up this winter

the gang got on the train to toronto and hit the ROM today

adam w.k. boosted

this purple thing is the universal symbol for "i was dumb and upgraded to sonoma"

after spending a few days in a haze of fever and headaches, felt great to do some physical work and be out and about. (also picked up a 90’s freezer from simcoe and got it set up in our basement)

finally put the truck’s roof racks to work today toting wood for a ramp i (thought i) needed to load a cast iron stove i got at auction in dundas ($30 including chimney!)

@jeremiah @rimugu @wjmaggos we also subsidized our CANDU nuclear reactors w huge amounts of public money and bailed out their cost overruns. i expect similar situations have repeated around the world, though i know some other countries do much better w cost of nuclear
