Made barbecue this evening. Lamb and chicken for meat, pepper and zucchini for veggies. Yummy! Kids loved it, the boy's sleeping now, the girl is reading a book, the wife's out with her girls, I'm with wine. Life's good.

This is certainly one of the ways

Beautiful day with local community. Lots of physical labor, all my joints are swollen, back sore, soles of my feet aching, but a beautiful day of people working together and recognizing what a special group we have.

I'm employed again. Once again through someone I know and not through LinkedIn. Still not feeling productive and comfortable.

After a decent break, cannot not notice how much of my time I have to sell for a "traditional" job.

我在中国是一个准脱离政府掌控者，基于身份的一切活动我都不参与，比如正式工作和网购。我也为此付出巨大代价，我的选择空间被极大压缩，行动能力损失严重。我只能通过少量免费wifi访问互联网

In China, I am practically independent of the government; I don't participate in any activities based on my status, such as formal work or online shopping. I've paid a heavy price for this; my choices have been severely limited, and my mobility has been significantly impaired. I can only access the internet through limited free Wi-Fi.

Most of programs use key chords, like Cmd-Shift-G, Ctrl-Alt-N and so on, you need to remember and press awkwardly several keys at once. uses key sequences, C-c then k then p then l. If I forget after C-c k p then press C-h and help appears.

Anybody here using mastodon regularly? What instance are you on? I can't decide on where to register 😅

replied to:

I'm using mastodon.social but i think you can look the instances in their site and decide by interest.

replied to:

There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.

replied to:

Ah! Qoto.org! It looks like it might be gone now though :/

I decided to use mstdn.social/@zbr - I like that’s it’s not too crowded and has a 500 word limit.

看到其他文章有自動翻譯，我覺得很酷

I think it's really cool to see other articles with automatic translation.

continued:

所以我來嘗試一下自動翻譯的文章功能，但發現自動翻譯只有在瀏覽器上，行動裝置要自己手動按翻譯功能。

So I tried the automatic article translation feature, but found that automatic translation only works in the browser; on mobile devices, you have to manually press the translation button.

Awesome! I'm reading right now and you've captured the vibe.

I’m enjoying it. tbh I never played the game, but his journal entries are a fun view into the mind, insecurities and all, of someone building something they’re excited about.

Asked Claude to implement a game based on a text quest book I played in 90s. Let’s see. Tried to play the original text, downloaded epub. Well, I died after 3 minutes in the game.

I still remember Max getting sandwiched between the two Ferraris in the first ever wet night race (Singapore 2017). Today he finally managed to win a race there. That's quite a long wait.

Just get rid of it. Life is way better without phones. I haven't had a phone for five years.

I am curious how does that work for you. You should write a post about it and share.
