Guys, I am very lucky that I have 3 safe places to share my content on

Although, some Mastodon server owners are a bit tough for me

@Jerry (the owner of hear-me.social) is nice to me

Ugh, totally wasted open house. Lookee-loo City. I'm so glad this was our last one before we leave. The rest will be after, and the house will be vacant.

Sigh.

So, with that, I'll perk myself up (and hopefully you) with another dopey gif.

I can't believe it'll be a week from tomorrow!

Have a good evening, everyone!

Donald Trump suggests Biden will be ‘jacked up’ on drugs for presidential debates. https://www.byteseu.com/117867/ #AnythingGoesNews #BreakingNews #GlobalNews #LatestNews #News #WorldNews

@byteseu They always project, and so we now know that they are jacking up Trump on drugs to counter his growing dementia.

This is an incredible video if you want to feel like you're visiting #Tokyo. It's exceptionally well done. Christopher has a talent for providing engaging commentary on what is recorded and has a knack for providing the right information.

It takes a while for Peertube to download and start playing the video because of its size. So be patient. And I think the Gundam at the end attacked the feed, so the video is cut off.

Anyway, it's delightful to watch.

I'm gonna be really honest. I'm feeling a bit emotional about this whole thing. Just a swarm of emotions.

Sadness because of having to leave behind all of my posts and discussions with most of you and the connections I seemingly lost with this move.

Nervous because hosting an instance for others is a new experience for me and I'd really hate to screw it up.

Excited for what the future might hold and all the new people I might meet along the way.

Happy that I have taken this step in moving my Fediverse journey forward.

Hopeful that I can do something good for people here and it's viewed as something good.

Grateful for all the friends and connections I've made along this wild ride this far.

Thank you, kind friends. I honestly don't know what else I'd be spending my time doing if I hadn't decided to start this journey with you almost a year ago.

Jerry,
@Jerry@hear-me.social avatar

@nixCraft At least Gemini Advanced got it right as shown. And it offered more about it when I asked if this is true for any number base. I'm not saying Gemini is better or great, I just personally like to test things out.

As per Gemini Advanced:

Yes, this is true for every possible base number system. Pi is an irrational number, meaning it cannot be expressed as a simple fraction of two integers. This property holds true regardless of the base used to represent the number.

Decimal (Base-10): The most common way we represent numbers, pi is approximately 3.14159... The decimals go on infinitely without repeating.
Binary (Base-2): In computers, pi would be represented as 11.0010010000111111... Again, the digits go on infinitely without repeating.
Hexadecimal (Base-16): Here, pi is 3.243F6A8885A308D3... Infinite and non-repeating.

This pattern continues for any other base. The representation of pi will always be infinite and non-repeating. This is a fundamental property of irrational numbers and not dependent on the chosen base.

@kimerwinbc You might want to try an alternative UI for Mastodon that is available on this server, . I prefer the ordering of the posts on Phanpy over the regular UI. https://phanpy.hear-me.social

@kimerwinbc Hi. Welcome.

You might want to post an introduction using the hashtag.

Because Mastodon doesn't have an AI to push posts to people, people follow both hashtags and people, so their timelines have exactly what they are interested in reading.

I hope you like it here!

I'm debating reviving my official pixelfed hosting service idea, it's not a regular host service though!

Rather you'd bring a S3, Hetzner, Linode, DigitalOcean API key to our service

We would provision or otherwise manage (1-click updates, automated backups) your instance while allowing you to maintain total control over ownership of the underlying server and data

I'm thinking $5-20 a month for this, and it would allow admins a new level of peace of mind while maintaining total control

Wdyt?

Jerry,
@Jerry@hear-me.social avatar

@dansup I maintain many personal servers (Mastodon, email server, Bluesky PDS, DNS, VPN, WordPress, Nextcloud, Peertube) and several more!, that I'd welcome having a Pixelfed instance that someone else would maintain for me. I'm just out of spare time.

I've thought of setting up a Pixelfed instance, but just haven't had the weekend time to do it.

So, yep, I'd sign up.

A missing truck driver was last seen at his rig. The police spent two weeks looking for him throughout the province, finally finding him when they looked inside his rig.

sol, to random

Hey there y'all! I'm Sol (although that's a pseudonym), I'm a musician and a student in the New York area, and I'm very new to Mastodon and similar sites.

I use all pronouns, so don't worry about accidentally using the wrong ones.

I'm bisexual, but I do have a partner, so don't hit on me lol (thats a joke btw)

uhh yeah I might sound weird at times, I'm VERY neuroatypical, I have ADD (ADHD minus the hyperactive) and maybe Autism or at least a lot of autistic tendencies (looking back on that, it sounds a bit rude towards people actually on the spectrum , i mean no harm i just dont know how to word things better)

Somethings i like:
Books
Minecraft
Music
Any kind of computer science

Thanks for looking at my words, and have a good day!

@Jerry@hear-me.social avatar

@sol Hi Sol. Welcome to the server and to Mastodon! If you have questions, just ask!

Pregnant women in Missouri, Texas, and Arkansas aren't allowed to divorce. For many reasons, this is terrible for abused women.

So, how is it that women keep voting for Republicans? How much abuse is needed to get these same women to make decisions for their own good, and for the good of their progeny?
