I am a technology nerd at heart but I also enjoy many outdoor activities, including kayaking, running, and hiking. I enjoy photography, coding & crochet as hobbies. Drawing and reading are a couple of things I like to do when I find time as well. I like to discuss philosophy and theology with quantum physics being one of my favorite topics.

6 panel comic by War and Peas: 1. A fig stands in the forest saying, "It's the time of year again." 2. "Where they're all trying to find the most beautiful tree." 3. "But they won't want a filthy tree." 4. A bird flies by. The tree shouts at the bird, "QUICK, shit on me!" 5. "Shit all you can on me!" The bird replies, "Fuckin' perv!" 6. The tree shouts, "My life depends on it!!"

I’ve gone a bit cross eyed so time to call it quits for tonight.

In related news: I’ve broken the tiny crochet hook I was using for the beads. I’ll use a piece of wire instead for the final home run 😅

I keep seeing Instagram reels where people are like "I’m a high fashion girlie" or "I’m a plus size girlie" or "I’m a thrift store girlie" so whenever I go to restaurants, I like to announce my presence by letting anyone within earshot know that I’m a fried appetizer sampler basket girlie.

We grant access to the office network. We added a fictitious lady called Morag McTuckus to the directory who we can have 'meetings' with off-site. We also reply to email for her. It's gone undetected for so long we're now considering hiring an actor to play her at the xmas party

Had a tantrum after losing a game of Fifa and kicked the wall, leaving a dent in the plasterboard. For some reason my 5 year old told my wife that she had done it while playing and that she was sorry. All was forgiven, I fixed the damage and retired from Fifa at 39 years old.

Thoroughly enjoyed this unique story! I'd definitely recommend it to any fan of deep space sci-fi!

Today I am stepping down from my role as the CEO of . Though this has been in the works for a while, I can't say I've fully processed how I feel about it. There is a bittersweet part to it, and I think I will miss it, but it also felt necessary. It feels like a goodbye, but it isn't—I intend to stay on and continue to advise the new leadership and contribute, because Mastodon—and the fediverse—is one of the very few beacons of hope for a better web.

Hello Fedi friends,

I'm currently planning my written tutorial for #YunoHost - from the POV of a newbie.

The guide will have a simple but ambitious goal: to encourage non-technical people to try self-host their own #NextCloud instance... and show them that it's something accessible to all, thanks to the wonderful https://YunoHost.org

I have tried other similar tools and YunoHost IMHO is simply the best and most secure solution. I've been using it for 11 months now and I have ZERO complaints. It just works... and it's effortless.

I'm thinking of splitting my written tutorial in a 3-part series... because doing everything in one go for a non-technical person could be overwhelming.

Part 1: registering a domain name and signing up for a VPS*

* yes I know technically you could forgo a domain name but I think having one is more empowering long term... and I'd go the VPS route because it's the most headache-free for a newbie. I can do the whole thing in 12 minutes with a VPS... and experienced headaches with a Raspi. I think for a total newbie the VPS is the way to go... especially if we factor in security issues. The stakes are lower

Part 2: installing YunoHost and tweaking DNS settings (assigning domain for NextCloud and creating a subdomain for YunoHost admin stuff, etc.)

Part 3: installing NextCloud (which people voted for when I asked which app I should install in my tutorial) and seeing what it can do.

Thoughts?

Is a 3-part series overkill or ok? I'd like to encourage people to set aside 30 minutes a day for this, so that the whole thing is not too overwhelming.

Eager to hear what you think about this!
