I just shared 'Ashley Lake at sunset' on Ko-fi. https://ko-fi.com/i/IG2G8163RZN

@npub1l3g…vu48 I'm using Textra, as well. It's pretty good. I was using SimpleSMS (FOSS, available on F-Droid) for a while, but it is still lagging way behind in features. Hopefully it'll catch up.

Oh, look at that. Dice.camp is on 4.3 now. :)
Time to start poking around in the settings.

Do I need to demonstrate, via video, how one can choose not to leave that shitty, totally unnecessary comment on a post?
Maybe I can describe it first.
You see a post that is fairly innocuous, but for some reason you feel the need to just shit all over the OP's good time. Instead, do that thing that got you there. You know, keep swiping, keep rolling that mouse wheel, whatever method it was that got you to that post, just keep doing that.
No need to be a flaming dick wagon.

My partner got back from Costa Rica, last week. She's been sorting through her photos for the last few days, and is getting them uploaded to Flickr today.
She had such a great time. :)

My SO is taking a trip to Costa Rica in just a few weeks. She wanted to learn some Spanish before the trip, so we decided to do it together using Duolingo.
When I fired it up just now to do a lesson, it threw a little party and presented me with this badge.
I'm now sharing this small accomplishment with the world.

@npub12jg…0gha You mute them, and move on. Don't waste your time dealing with people like this.

Late good morning, Fediverse.
How is everyone's Tuesday shaping up?

We still have parts of town without power. People have been asked to stay out of the rivers because of all the downed power lines, and debris in the rivers.
We've also been asked to conserve water because our usual water source, which is gravity fed, still isn't cleared out, so the city has pumps running on generators to pump water to the city.
The governor declared our county, and the one west of us, to be disaster areas.
All of this is a direct result of climate change.

Good morning, Fediverse.
It's a fucking beautiful day here. Supposed to get up in the 80s. The SO and I are going to hike into a hot spring, and spend a good portion of our day soaking in the woods, and then probably come back and BBQ in the backyard.

Every time I install Windows 11 at work, I feel like I've sold off a little more of my soul.
This operating system is one of the biggest privacy disasters to ever be forced upon the world of personal computing.
Seriously, I know it's intimidating, I know computers are complicated, but you need to ditch Microsoft, and Google. They are not your friends. They are using and exploiting our entire population.
It's time to move away from them.

My most viewed photo on Flickr. This was taken on Highway 1, in Northern Oregon, just before turning inland.
If you ever get the opportunity to drive hwy 1, starting in southern California, I highly recommend it. Certainly some of the most stunning views you'll ever come across.

A bit of fun news today, I ordered a new camera last night. It's an old model, a Nikon D7500, but it is brand new, and I feel like I got a pretty good deal on it.
My first DSLR was a D50. I now carry two D3100 SLRs with me when I'm out shooting. This new camera will be the first one I've owned that wasn't near the bottom of Nikon's more economical line of SLRs.
I will probably never own the latest, greatest thing, so I get excited when I can splurge a little.

This is the conflict I'm dealing with right now. When I hear these two guys running games, and talking about the game, you can feel the passion they have for it. They just want to make the game as good as it can be, because they love it.
The gap between people like this, and the suit wearing fucks that have never played, and only want to monetize every ounce of the game, with no regard for its legacy, or its players... that is where I'm lost right now.

Microsoft is forcing everyone onto their cloud services. By the end of 2025, even their desktop OS will be heavily dependent on the cloud.
I know, "the cloud is where everything is headed". Incorrect. It's where the big corporations want everything to go, so they can have more control over it. You own nothing, and their TOS allows them to cut you off at any time.
It doesn't have to be that way, and if you're running a business that depends on cloud services, you're taking an enormous risk.
