For those of us of a certain age: somebody took EVERY DJ break by Dr. Johnny Fever (WKRP in Cincinnati) and matched it with the music he was announcing. The result is a 3 hour Dr. Johnny Fever show which you can listen to here: awphooey.com/wkrp

It’s pretty fun and the music mix is good.

Feeling hungover today without even the accompanying fun of having drunk last night. I'm being punished for something I didn't even do.

I've taken two covid tests and they both have come back negative, but I'm sick as a dog. Fever of 102.9. Maybe i got the old fashioned flu. I haven't had that on a long time
in reply to Emily Velasco

A lot of people forget... just because covid is a thing now doesn't mean all the old bugs went away.

Hope you get over it soon.

Una sugerencia para Mastodon:

Actualmente (Mastodon v4.4.3), la altura de la vista de anuncios es impredecible; cambia según el contenido de cada página de anuncios, haciendo que quien usa la aplicación tenga que perseguir el selector de páginas para cambiar entre anuncio y anuncio (ver GIF animado adjunto).

La altura de esta vista debería ser fija, de manera que la persona pueda mantener el cursor en el mismo lugar dentro de la pantalla para ir cambiando de página fácilmente.

Este cambio beneficiaría a personas con y sin discapacidad (me parece a mí).

Sometimes I have an idea and I know, deep down, that I should wait and do it properly but instead I let it burst out in a slap dash splat.

This is one of those ideas.

Margaret Thatcher, PM of the UK through the 1980s, was infamous for saying that there is no such thing as society, just individuals.

Which is a bit like saying there's no such thing as a city, only individual buildings. Or, there's no such thing as the fediverse, only individual accounts.

in reply to Strypey

Those who argue for opt-in federation between services (eg the opt-in forced on BridgyFed), rather than interop being the default. Those who argue for mass blocking of this or that service, not because of the behaviour of the people using them, but because we don't like the company that owns them. Those who believe in the fediverse as an ocean separating islands of like-minded people, instead of a way to explore and encounter people thinking thoughts we never knew were possible.

(3/?)

in reply to Strypey

These people too are arguing against the idea of a society larger than themselves, and their in-group.

That's not to say that all Muting/ Blocking is wrong or anything silly like that. Just that they should be a last resort, considered case-by-case (collectively as well as individually), not the default. Because a connection with this larger social space, and the opportunities for learning and collaboration it brings, is the whole point of online social network tools.

Tomorrow is Ollie's birthday. I think he'll be six. OMG. Here's a photo from 2022 with his then-favorite toy before he destroyed it.

I am sure there are other dogs who love humans as much as he does, but he ranks very high. If I walked up to a total stranger and started kissing them all over the face, I'd be in BIG trouble. Ollie does it and people's self-esteem goes up 500% in seconds. He's a walking ball of love. ❤️

The deed is done. Letzter Task bei Datenbankumzug und -rekonstruktion in @darktable erledigt. Nach vielen Jahren ist #Lightroom bei mir nun Geschichte. Ich muss auf einigen Luxus verzichten, ein paar Kompromisse eingehen und musste zwei wesentliche Funktionen nachkaufen, aber das Kerngeschäft (#RAW-Entwicklung) beherrscht #darktable ganz hervorragend. Für den Übergang nahm ich mir einige Monate Zeit, noch ist der Workflow etwas zäher, aber für ein Hobby kann ich damit leben.

@geco_de Lohnt sich! Wobei solche Urteile gerade in dem Bereich höchst subjektiv sind. Tipp: Statt direkt die vorhandenen Bilder in die DT-Lib zu übernehmen (das braucht sehr viele Überlegungen und Vorbereitungen in LR), würde ich eher mal mit Bildbearbeitung und RAW-Workflow anfangen. Viel Einlesen, viele Videos fürs Konzept. Erst wenn Du beschlossen hast, dass Du damit leben kannst (auch mit Kompromissen und Defiziten), würde ich die Lib übertragen.

Saw this at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens today. Even amongst all the orchids it commanded attention. A sign around the corner revealed it to be a "bat flower".

will read.

13 years ago, in Shanghai I stumbled upon an arcade and spent the entire night playing King of Fighters with the regulars there. It was magical.




Missed my alarm this morning and got to the soccer game 5 mins after it started instead of 40 mins before... But we won the first game 2-0 and my son initiated the second goal from a clearance deep in our backfield. so we are doing OK. Hanging out in a parking lot with the AC on until 2:15 or so. Its hot but not as hot as last week.

So I'm setting up the #guix machine running #zabbix and it needs mariadb, so mariadb is installed, and I got around this bug: codeberg.org/guix/guix/issues/…

So now I need to set up mariadb but I can't figure out what the cli command is. though I got mycli installed... but how do I get connected as root and create users and dbs and tables?

in reply to Daniel Lakeland

It should be some sort of standard sequel command line. My recollection or assumption would be that the command line interface is somewhat standardized so say whatever MySQL had.
