First customisation made to my Enafore fork/instance. Remove that shitty “Post” and hello “Toot”.

Whilst out on my driving lesson earlier this afternoon, I saw a cloud shaped like a penis.

Anyway, that’s me, bye.

I want to find one language to go forward and learn, what would you the Fediverse recommend?

English (the hardest language in the world 100% with all its odd shit) is my first language.
I’m honestly open to anything, I was leaning towards a European language, I’ve tried French, and learnt Spanish 2-3 years ago at school, but I was also leaning for Norse languages too (maybe Norwegian).

I need to get a handle on this, what password manager do you recommend?

My requirements are:

• Free
• As private as possible
• Sync between devices
• Maybe a website one (if local app, needs iOS, Windows and Linux, or an extension).

Any recommendations welcome.

I have got my laptop on, I've got a couple WSL tabs open (one with Nvim and one with Toot). I am listening to podcasts which I have been procrastinating on for nearly a year now. I feel so in control using a PC rather than my phone to write, a mechanical keyboard feels and sounds so good to type on (and I can type really quickly).

Now I’m reading HHGTTG I have heard a few references in TBBT from the book, which previously went under my radar but now I understand them.

So I got some nice little earbuds yesterday (little dots). I’ve tested them and they are great quality for £25 from Asda, not bad.

A temporary solution… hosting on Netlify.

I’m getting some help in a CB issue but it seems to be limited to my site.
Sorry to the RSS peeps (which includes myself).

I’ve seen a few Polymaths folks talking about Kobo readers, I’m now intrigued, and interested. Which one do people have/recommend? Also how do you get books on it, is it all EPUB/PDF downloads or is there a bookstore like Kindle?

Didn’t end up reading this evening, and I actually finished writing the blog post for #100DaysToOffload .

Not sure if it’s working at the moment, but the link is below.

And it’s 6:30 in the morning and I’m already up to get ready for work. Loud groaning I’m tired.

Posting my most recent post here might not be the best idea with all this Linux Elitists crap going on today. Meh, I’ve got an amazing amin :)

Has anyone attempted a move from Mastodon yet?

This latest RC adds the move feature in.

My internet provider has an outage in my area so looks like I’m fucked, I have no internet and they say it could take 2 days to fix. Fuck sake, and my house proves smart homes suck, we have no heating either because it’s controlled through the wifi.

I need to do some writing but I didn’t feel like it today so I didn’t. I have done a tiny bit of reading, a couple of pages which was relaxing.
I feel a digital detox on the horizon.
