Welcome to the May 31st BikeNite! Thanks for joining, and I hope we all enjoy chatting about cycle stuff! Answer whenever at your convenience. Anyone can join, now or later. Reply to what you like, and boost for visibility.

We'll start out with our introduction:

Q1. Where are you posting from today? I've seen so many more people riding around recently. It may be because of warm weather, or because of Bike Month. What local cycling trends have you seen?

@Neblib@mastodo.neoliber.al avatar

@ascentale A1. posting from Midwest USA. I've seen more of what I assume are retirees due to age and time of day doing utility cycling in my neighborhood when I work from home. Its awesome, hopefully they'll join in advocacy for better infra.

@ruud that's pretty impressive!

TIL Kai Ryssdal joined your instance, cool! Maybe we can get a Make Me Smart interview between you and him about the fediverse, especially now that you've hosted nearly everything?

While there aren't any specific rewards yet here, it'd be a good way to advertise this magazine there with the DT sticky, sidebar, or banner rewards and kill mosquitos at the same time!

Or if you don't care about spreading this magazine, you can still kill some mosquitos and save some lives!

quarterly reminder that you can follow and interact with this magazine's threads on Mastodon even though it still has yet to support group actors by following @nl_kbin_booster which simply boosts the threads.

I remember someone posting awhile back about a extension that collected feeds as you browsed, but I can't seem to find it anymore in the mastodon search or in Firefox's extension search. Anyone know of such an extension?

Billy Cobb made such a great parody of Bowling for Soup's 1985 a few days ago.

I really want KC to Omaha, OKC to Witchita, and Twin Cities to Omaha Amtrak routes to be the next targets for federal rail funding. All have existing private rail links, so cost would be minimal with huge impacts on connectivity even with limited service. It's the missing links for KCY-MSP, STL-DEN, OMA-DFW, and OKC-CHI to transform multiple days to hours. /soapbox

Reminder - many states are voting in their primaries tomorrow and most are later than today. No matter your views about the near-predicatable presidential primaries, important local elections are also on the primary ballots, including many that might be decided before the general elections. Please look up your state, register if you haven't, and when you're next able. https://ballotpedia.org/Statewide_primary_elections_calendar

anyone have a working setup with logseq (in orgdown) and playing nice in logseq's folder (orgroam dailies in 'journals', etc)? Currently my vault is a mix of org and md but I'm hoping to at least get the org files recognized while I work on converting the md (or figure out ). I tried playing with org-logseq but even though I'm matching correctly on its grep for the folder and I have title properties I couldn't get it working after a good attempt.

Checked off "bought cheapest beer possible before 130pm and bicycled it home" on the bike tooter achivement list. #BikeTooter (Edit: just for clarity, these are for my slugs, I do have a driver's license and no DUI arrest, I do own a car, and I don't drink beer.)

@ai6yr for those not in the slug world, what do slugs need beer for? Is it a reward for being good pets?

Bass later came back with an amended order to exempt all of the city’s single family neighborhoods. That clarification cut out more than 70% of the city’s residentially zoned land and the lion’s share of its well-to-do neighborhoods

:boo_hoo:​

"To go that extra step…would be a declaration of war with our single family neighborhoods.”
That war may be coming ... Los Angeles has until mid-October to plan for 250,000 new homes.

It's a slug party,
and I've bought them all a beer
Let's invite them to come right over,
and have a great cheer
It was the cheapest beer they sell nearby
But for a party it will fly
The question is really,
Will they just get drunk, or die?

(human poem, mine)

@ai6yr thanks for following up and giving us conclusion to yesterday's story! I hope your mouse friend is doing okay today and not too hungover / bloated / regretting their decisions.

@NBAnthony2k@mastodo.neoliber.al avatar

Does anyone know if you can actually do computer work while on trains? I think i've found a loophole for my long commutes. It'd be a little longer than driving, but if i can spend even half of it working on a then it would be much shorter day overall

Neblib,
@Neblib@mastodo.neoliber.al avatar

@NBAnthony2k many routes have wifi now but it's only scoped for light browsing not RDPing (or similar needing a consistent connection). If you are on a route with consistent cell coverage with your carrier you probably can hotspot, but I found my connection dropped just often enough between small towns that made it too frustrating to work on the Zephyr.

@Tutanota I've been using for the past year. It's an awesome open-source combination of outliner/block-based notetaking mixed with electron-based feature-rich Zettlekasten's like Obsidian or Foam, and is similarly file based meaning low lock-in risks and easy integration with other tools. It also has a lot of cool features like Datalog integration, pdf & video tools, a nice mobile app, and lots of great opinionated defaults. I've been only using md, but it also supports org formatting.
