I'm 45 years late but I finally got around to watching the entire series of #blakes7 and even though it was made for about 20 bucks per episode, it was still a pretty nifty watch. Reminded me a bit of FireFly. I've heard rumors that SyFy might reboot the show and if so, I'd definitely check it out.

Not the move I'd take, but go off, GM!

I made a thing!

As part of my ongoing air-exchange-based #HVAC project, I have an outdoor air quality sensor from #AmbientWeather (no sponsorship, I bought it). It's battery/solar powered, and that's fine... except for the part where that doesn't work here in the winter.

But since it plugs in to charge and keeps working when plugged in, winner winner chicken dinner, right?

NO! Because first you have to take the bottom off the case, then the charge plug sticks directly out from the bottom facing down, like a goddamn Apple Magic Mouse.

I can't fix the mouse, but I can fix this, and I have made a printable tray and rack system to let you use it that way. Enjoy!

Mastodon, I love you. But we gotta up our game cause #Tumblr is on fire right now with their #Twitter roasting. Yes, Tumblr. Check them out too and give ‘em a high five.

So let me break down how things are going on the internet today:

• Twitter: Rate-limited
• Reddit: Third-party apps dead
• Pornhub: Effectively just got banned in my state because of a bad law
• Bluesky: Slow as molasses because everyone’s on a single server
• Twitch: Hear they’re having problems, too
• YouTube: Working OK but sudden questions about them, too
• Mastodon: Running perfectly

We can make this work.

With Twitter melting down again I’m starting to wonder if the higher bar required to join Mastodon is a bug or a feature. #Twitter #Twitterdown

LMAO, the advertisers are going to love this. Why yes, that is indeed sarcasm. Thanks for asking.

In 100,000 years an alien ship enters our solar system. The earth has no remarkable intelligent life, but it's a beautiful biodiverse planet recovering from some bad extinctions. The aliens don't notice the traces left by humanity right away, this is just a survey trip and not much monumental remains.

But, they do pick up a signal, coming not from Earth, but from Mars. "How strange?" they think. Mars is obviously the inferior planet for life. Earth is incredible. But they go to investigate. 1/

Lol, Andrew Tate blocked me for cyberbullying him over his TOTAL LACK OF KNOWLEDGE for Ferrari and McLaren. 😂

I’m sorry I called you a fraud and a “fake car guy,” Andrew! I can change!

LOCALS - RULE CHANGE. FOR REAL. Copied from announcements:

As of today, June 2nd, 2023, links to #Twitter are not allowed to originate on this instance.

To be clear, that's not a suggestion. Do not link to Twitter. I mean it and I will enforce.

I will not in any way be a part of funding Elon Musk's alt-right propaganda machine, I will not be in any way a part of supporting a man who personally sticks anti-trans propaganda videos in the faces of tens of millions of people. This is why he bought Twitter and I will not participate, or allow any forum I own to participate.

From this day, no links to Twitter are allowed here.

If that is not acceptable, you are welcome to migrate to another instance.

This is kinda cursed and I feel kinda bad about this, but I just re-created Twitter UI to #Mastodon with #CSS only... wanted to see how quickly it's possible to do.

Now that I have everything in CSS vars (shame that Mastodon has them hardcoded at the moment), I can use this as base to create another theme for myself. #MastoAdmin #WebDev #Twitter

Edit: Fixed things to the screenshot as I'm kind of a perfectionist/OCD-person.
