Exploring restic for backing up my workstation (to local external volumes and probably "the cloud" too) at the suggestion of a friend. https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
Maybe just in time, because...

Second time at #Gym after joining. I figure "I'm not that unfit." I push myself.
35 minutes in and despite having stopped all exertion, and lying on the floor for another 20 minutes, my heart rate hasn't dropped below 120, I have severe pins and needles in both arms from the elbow down and I cant stop shaking.
I did somehow not throw up, so I guess I can count that as a win.
Tee hee. That moment you get your boss to carry a bright yellow Geiger counter onto a flight for a project to track radiation on aircraft and you realise you forgot to tell him both that you had set the radiation alarm too low and had left the sound alert on. Also the sound alert was set to "Danger Will Robinson". #oops
FTR, the US501(c)(3) for #Mastodon was already planned for quite some time, the non-profit status in Germany being revoked doesn't seem to be directly related to that.
"Set up a US non-profit branch (501(c)(3)) with a board of governors to become eligible for larger grants from US-based donors and allow US donors to make their contributions tax-deductible."
LACoFire: TRAM ACCIDENT | FS51 | 3900 Lankershim Blvd #StudioCity | #LACoFD at 9:05 units were dispatched to a tram accident where 15 patients were transported to local hospitals with minor injuries. CHP will be the lead investigatory agency for all further inquiries.
The California Highway Patrol, which is leading the investigation, released a report Sunday afternoon on the collision. While making a left turn, the tram’s last car “collided with a metal guardrail on the right side of the roadway causing it to tilt and eject multiple passengers from the tram,” the reported stated.
I opened a cabinet in the kitchen that I clearly don't use very often and rediscovered a bag of potatoes I had purchased back in like, November last year. Does this count as successful gardening? 😂 #oops#growingPotatoes#kitchenSurprise#gardening
Last week, #TrumpMedia reported sales of just over $4 million in 2023 as net losses reached nearly $60 million for the full year ending Dec. 31. The company warned it "expects losses to continue amid greater profitability challenges."
If #MAGA stooges think earning $4 million on top of LOSING $60 million is a "great business," then there's little wonder why they intend to vote for #Trump.
It's because they are stupid.
Based on its claims in '21 #TruthSocial / #DJT expected to generate $114M in sales in 2023. But the company recorded just $4.1M in net sales last year and lost $58.2M. 😳
So they hit about 3.5% of their target in sales for the year, while eating into their cash reserves to the tune of $54,100,000.
#Trump Media is losing a STAGGERING amount of money & is nowhere close to being a profitable company or meeting any growth projections. It's almost like Trump's not a great businessman. 🤔💸💸💸 #Oops🤷🏼♂️
Turns out if you are using eclipse glasses as a temporary filter on a telescope and you actually find the sun, you will know it because the eclipse glasses will have a hole burned in them (Nobody was looking through at the time, we're all ok).
Ihr erinnert euch an den tagelangen Ausfall bestimmter Zahlungsterminals im letzten Jahr? Heute morgen wurden Erinnerungen daran wach.
Girocard Zahlungen mit Karten von Sparkassen gingen ein paar Stunden nicht, offizieller Grund:
"Hintergrund war, dass beim Einsatz eines internen Verschlüsselungsverfahrens Störungen aufgetreten sind, die dazu geführt haben, dass Bezahlkarten am Terminal einzelner Händler abgewiesen wurden."
Da denke ich doch gleich mal an ein abgelaufenes Zertifikat, irgendwo auf der Strecke zwischen Karte und IT der Sparkassen. #Oops Mal schauen, ob da noch mehr an Information kommt.
‘Are you kidding me?’: Property owner stunned after $500,000 #house built on wrong lot
“Anger, accusations and legal action are firing up on the Big Island after a construction company built a half-million-dollar house on the wrong property.”
Had a plane in #Blender that used a geometry node setup to spawn planes along its face. The density was like... 2000. Where I goofed was trying to apply this same node setup to a model with like 50,000 faces.
