Looking forward to the upcoming Milky Way season! This was taken last year in Avalon, NJ. Shooting the Milky Way at the Jersey shore is always best early in the season before the crowds come back and the light pollution increases.

#SilentSunday

I confessed to my daughter that I was bragging about being her mom.
I told her how proud I was of her DahliaAddict.com project.
Sometimes, I forget to tell the person that matters the most.
I asked for some pictures of her garden.
Her pictures are better than mine.

When someone tells you that you are not good enough, that you can't do something, it is because in their heart they fear you can. Use this knowledge, and prove their fears correct!

Hi friends, I was laid off from Google last week and I'm looking for new opportunities. I'd like to find a role where I'm directly working with people to address their infrastructure needs.

A few of the types of problems I'd love to work on:

- building internal platforms
- on-prem/hybrid cloud
- cost optimization
- ops/infra tooling

But I'm also open to many other areas of focus. If you're looking for a senior engineer with an ops/infra focus, please get in touch.

@clive The Rosicrucians used to use this in their promotional pamphlets way back in the day. I never knew the origin of the system and at that time (when I was 12 - 15) thought that they’d invented the system 😛 Good to know the origins at last …

I think my new hobby is finding photogenic spots for my motorcycle like this old vintage Texaco sign just outside of old town Acworth.

There is nothing new under the sun. But there are new suns.

@jaydubs Yeah, they are pretty prolific with the code changes 🙂 I believe there are a lot of people helping out on that project. They do keep adding stuff fast. Which is one reason that I went with that repo for what I wanted — the fact that they add new features without me having to do the work 😛

@jaydubs Ah, thank you 😊 Then they must have been added recently because I don't see them in my version of the code, which is about a week old. So at least I wasn't maligning them 😛

@Djerbien @jaydubs @icecubesapp I shy away from making definitive statements since “best” is all subjective … what works for you might not work for me 🙂 Personally, I find #Tusker the best app for *me* since it has lots of subtle features which speak of care by the developer — that they use the app themselves and developed the app primarily for themselves.

The only thing I miss from #IceCubesApp that #Tusker doesn’t have is post editing but it’s easy enough to add. I’ve just not bothered to do so yet since I don’t edit stuff that much.

@jaydubs I just tried out the build I have of #IceCubesApp because I was curious — was my memory that bad? 😛 Couldn’t find the hashtags or lists on the main UI. And I couldn’t see any references to hashtags or lists in the commit notes for the source code for the last week …

So it might be that it was there always but I never found it? I have no idea. Where do you find the hashtags and lists feature in #IceCubesApp? In #Tusker they are on the main sidebar where you can add different hashtags to follow or create lists of people to follow …

@jaydubs I've used #IceCubeApp on and off for several weeks but I had to modify the code to make it work for Akkoma 🙂 I submitted a PR for the change but they didn't really want to do it my way and it looks as if Akkoma compatibility isn't a priority for them.

I kind of lost interest at that point since I found Tusker at the same time. So I don't know if I misrepresented things to you (about hashtags and lists) due to bad memory, or if that was added very recently ... But if the latter, then probably within the last week since I was using IceCubes last week (I think ..)

@jaydubs #IceCubesApp is indeed great. But if you like the instance feature, you might also want to give #Tusker a look 🙂 (Not Tusky, BTW) It has the instance feature where you can add multiple instance timelines, but also has list and hashtag support, which I missed in IceCubesApp.

Ivory looks good and and in time might become great, but at the moment, it has the least amount of new/interesting features, IMO. Plus, it only works with Mastodon servers only and leaves out other Mastodon-compatiblie servers like Akkoma/Pleroma. Incidentally, IceCubesApp has the same issue. But Tusker works with other Fedi-servers too.
