Since I'm guessing many of you have had a somewhat stressful day like I did, here are a few photos of a redwing out and about doing its thing #photos #nature #birds #iceland

A redwing, a small orange-brown bird with a bit of red on its wings, stands by a path with a worm in its beak.
That same redwing on a pile of wood chips with a grub or small insect in its mouth.

LinkedIn brain must be studied at the university level. We need a vaccine. This is an epidemic.

Ford lack of self education is what makes inferiority complexes. So when you face a boss that is a billionaires. Dont let it scare you ir link pain to thinking you cant add value! If you want to think like a billionaire, self educate, start having an idealized version of who you want to become, find positive role models that carry the strength you may lack. Who have succeeded in the venture in which you seek to attain. Thats the most important question one can ever ask themselves for the journey of life. Who am I becoming. You will not be able to sit at a dinner table and have a meal with a multimillion or billionaire, especially if you're thinking in the Newtonian model of living. Operating on cause and effect. education doesn't end in high school or college. In fact, an educated person is not one who holds an abundance of specialized or general knowledge. Specialized knowledge can be found just around the corner, any corner. An educated person is one who has built the faculties of the mind in such a way where they can attain anything they desire or it's equivalent without violating the rights of others.

The morally acceptable amount of unethical plagiarism machine usage is zero.

Using the unethical plagiarism machine that undermines software freedom "only for simple bugfixes" is still being a user of the unethical plagiarism machine that undermines software freedom. It is continuing to use the evil box that does evil things and has evil consequences.

https://daringfireball.net/2026/05/what%5Fis%5Fa%5Fdickover

A screenshot of the website daringfireball.net featuring a large, dark grey pop-up window in the foreground. The pop-up contains the text "THIS IS A DICKOVER." followed by the definition: "dickover n. : a modal panel, popover, or curtain presented by a website or app, deliberately obscuring its own content to frustrate the user with an unwanted, unnecessary, mandatory interaction; e.g. asking the user to accept 'cookies', subscribe to a newsletter, install the website's mobile app, agree to terms of service, or anything else that the user couldn't give two shits about." A button in the bottom right corner of the pop-up reads "NOT OK". The blurred background shows the website header "DARING FIREBALL" and an article titled "What is a Dickover?".

I'm a big dummy addicted to convenience. So I've accumulated over 200 movies and tv shows on iTunes. Media that I only "own" so long as I keep my Apple ID, presumably.

I want to just eat the mistake, and start over.

My deeply held values (as I shared in my recent talk https://adrian.geek.nz/alt-tech-futures.pdf ):

1. Minimal environmental impact
It can never be zero, but we can minimize it.

2. Simplicity
Its easy to make anything larger, it takes true ingenuity to make things smaller & cheaper.

3. Inclusivity
I don't want things to become so simple that they can't be used by whomever might want to use them.

4. Longevity
Get your full use out of electronics before replacing them!

5. Knowledge
It is empowering!

Still playing around with Indigo, the combo Mastodon/Bluesky app. I like it but I think I like Icon Factory’s Tapestry better for reading and Croissant for crossposting; a bit more friction from using multiple apps, but maybe that’s okay.

If hopelessness has made a home in your heart, it cannot be dislodged easily or all at once. Chip away at it with small victories, moments of hope and defiance. It is not easy and it will take time and effort, but strive to make it an uncomfortable home, a place where despair is no longer welcome.

This kickstarter may be of interest to a few on fedi. Youtube poledancing archer who makes videos about historical archery, fantasy combat, & um... pole dancing, is doing a crowd funder to get hold of a properly fitting set of plate armour to do experiments in what it's possible to do in full armour. Is about 70% funded with 10 days to go.

If the project is funded we can finally answer the important historical question. Is it possible to pole dance in full plate armour?
