Lots of new people out there... #welcome
Here are my #introductions
I'm a nerd from #YYC (Calgary, Canada) into #FOSS software, #Linux and a bit of #BSD among other things. I host my own email and web including the mastodon instance https://coales.co as a hobby.
I work on #python stuff like #flask, #django and #tryton personally, and professionally in the field of #automation #SCADA .
Also big advocate of #openhardware.
I'm kind of libertarian but closer to Chomsky than Rand.
This is wild: Blender booted off YouTube for refusing to monetise their channel!
https://www.blender.org/media-exposure/youtube-blocks-blender-videos-worldwide/
Now they're testing out their own PeerTube instance: https://twitter.com/blender_org/status/1009077941676986368
And so #Youtube won't allow the #Blender Foundation to share its creative commons licensed videos on the platform if they don't monetize it? Really? https://www.blendernation.com/2018/06/19/blender-foundation-youtube-update/ #b3d

So I got these eye drops and the lid was covered in this horrible anti-tamper wrapper and it took me like 10 minutes with a small knife to remove it and now I don't need the damn drops because my eyes are already moistened with the tears of frustration 😭
Food and racism Show more
There should be an ActivityStreams activity for just screaming.
I just read about a woman in Barrhead saving a squirrel with a massively overgrown tooth by doing "dentistry" on it. I was really disappointed when it wasn't the one person I know who lives in Barrhead and who I could totally see doing something like this.
So @squirrel shows me this and has decided it is the most hilarious thing ever 🙄😆
Awesome Scandinavian entertainment of mass destruction.
(I nominate for the most beautiful annihilation of optical media award!)
If you like the art, but you don’t like the artist...
Steal the art.

Anyone remember #KTel records? It was (is?) a Canadian music publisher of delightfully tacky tune compilations that you could buy through mail order and advertised on TV in a style perfectly lampooned by the likes of SCTV.
Wretched as they may have been at times songs like these always put a smile on my face.
Spanish Flea is just the kind of thing that would go on a KTel album 😁
#libremonday was a thing here for awhile at least so I think I'll do that again.
A topical suggestion given recent #github news is #kallithea as a self hosted alternative.
The project is stewarded by the Free Software Conservancy rather than a corporate venture like #gitlab seems to be, and it can manage both Git and Mercurial repos. Was pretty easy to install for me anyways
My instance is at https://src.coalesco.ca and I will obviously be moving more there now lol.
OK now I am on 2.4.0 I hope the upgrade took alright. I didn't enable the EC search stuff so maybe that is why is was suspiciously...unenventful.
Well I think I'll do some maintenance and upgrade on my instance before I need to "activate Microsoft Github" to pull in the latest code LOL. See ya all later
When I want to unwind and feel calm and get that 
feeling I watch Fran Blanche on YouTube
Hey.
It's Fran. Again.
In my lab.
Fran Lab!
It's all geeky artsy maker-y musical nostalgic goodness and just...calming. Even the beautiful closing music.
Just...nice 😊
