Some of our #RuralBroadband customers use the company e-mail for complaints not directly connected to our services. Like "There are very few #mushrooms in the forest this year". What can I say? "Try turning the forest off, wait 60 seconds, then turn it on again".
Perhaps I should fuck EM radiation, avoid the hassle with overcrowded frequencies, buy some #fungi and switch to a sporenet.
@szescstopni watch out for the The Last of Us prophecy
Why else do you think I'm on spore.social?
Our mastodon server already did. Hence the name. 😀
@EricLawton All spores are in a net right? But the basic question is, who was first? The spore or the net?
That's a harder question than the chicken/egg equivalent.
At least for me, because I don't know the evolutionary history of fungi.

@szescstopni That is just begging for a Radio Yerewan reply 😂
@mann_ey Oh, yes. Radio Yerevan is the best.
@szescstopni you should have a bulletin board and a RSS to spread such knowledge ... people want to know where mushrooms are better in their area.
@frankboon We could tell them where the mushrooms are, but then we'd have to kill them.
@szescstopni or you could send them on a scavenger hunt for them with seemingly unavoidable traps ... the one that survives, gets a golden mushroom ...
@frankboon I could. I'm evil.
@szescstopni alas the golden mushroom would be poisonous!
@szescstopni for me it also raises the question: chaotic, neutral, lawful?!?
@szescstopni Bizarrely, just the other day I was noting a lower than usual amount of mushrooms in my local woods too (southern UK).
@gilester45 In my area the summer was dry this year. I wonder whether someone is gathering such data globally. Could be a fluke, could be a significant trend.
Mushrooms are supposed to be everywhere at this time of the year. A customer called today to report connection loss. They said the connection went down four hours earlier, and they went on a mushroom hunt, thinking this was a minor glitch and everything would be fine by the time they got back. Turned out the BTS had to be restarted, and it took some 15 minutes. But I learned that in their area, some 30 km away, there were also very few mushrooms, and most of them were infested with worms.
