Car having major issues. We sold it. Carfree in #Seattle . Taking the toddler about on busses. Apartment still stacked high with boxes. Parks are working great for us.

The level of stylish dress has increased since we got here 5 years ago. Definitely ehhh feeling about that.

I'm within running distance of the gym. So that's good. :-)

I feel that here, the city is our yard. We don't have to go keep our own individual yard pristine and reserved from others, we can live in common.

@dzuk an astute insight

a big goal for this fall is to do some work with #gopher. in particular, I want to be able to deliver gopher sites from #k8s

they are coming for food jobs - online only and fast food.

note the comment about dropping unemployment yields higher wages and how that is bad for business.

p sure this analysis is plain Marx.

Warren is hiring for front end devs and product managers.

mind, the narrative arc of a show oriented on athletic acrobatics doesn't really need to be particularly well thought out, deep, or even relevant. it's stupendous to watch. Just thought the storyline rang hollow.

oh yes - the narrative arc I feel is firmly situated in the 60s; it argues for non-conformity vs the stultifying suit and ties of cities.

I'm not sure what to make of that, my observation - and others - is that non-conforming is the modern conforming. selecting the custom media for our extensions to define our personal individuality is just what we do, *man*.

@juliobiason yeah.

Tbh it's why I have generally neglected Mastodon in the past 6mo. I care about what's going on in the world and I like reading what experts in different areas have to say about it. Mastodon outside of very specific areas doesn't have that.

I hear that Passover is starting.

Happy Passover, for those who celebrate.

@jankoekepan I can run the calculus as well as anyone.

I am persuaded that giving up is always the wrong move.

The thing to do is make it politically toxic for GOP Senators to be pro Trump, and centrist House members to duck the question. Impeachment hearings in the House forces the question.

So.

I encourage Mastodon Americans to yodel at their Congresscritters, newspapers, etc.

@jankoekepan yes? I know. Articles of impeachment are sent to the Senate for trial, if POTUS is guilty, he's stripped of office.

@jankoekepan yes. That's what the report says. I read enough of it. It is incumbent on responsible pols to impeach: stop the circus and get serious. If the Senate wants to roll over, let them. The trial needs to occur.

@jankoekepan blatant and open cooperation with a foreign state to get elected. Half a dozen other sketchy deals in office.

He's a crook.

"let yesterday burn and throw it in the fire"

One of my favorite lyrics from Matisyahu.

Write your reps, people - demand impeachment and trial in the Senate.

@ajroach42 easily, for a quality ergonomic device. I usually spend $50 per midtier trackball.

@Hamishcampbell consumerism does not solve the problem of consumerism.

Anyone in the Seattle-Tacoma area interested in old computer accessories? I am collecting everything that isn't useful on a Modern Today Computer and putting it in a box for Goodwill. Think usb/ps2 adapters. Dvi/vga adapters. Parallel cables. Etc.

@wxcafe yep, that's an unpopular opinion.

@freakazoid prom -> infux! Influx for storage.

Largely the instability was because I ran out of disk and the memory usage was linear with disk usage and I ran out of ram. (I don't understand why that's so. Mistuning of the default helm chart, probably).

Timescale might be the right play. I mostly want the metrics to be rock. solid. The thing I'm annoyed by is the lack of HA/scalability; pg doesn't win there either without enormous grunt work

so at some point in my copious spare time, I'll cook up something that turns prometheus webhooks to an RSS feed, gated by some kind of API key. I'll share it - AGPL3 of course. Probably Python, because I don't want to spend the time building the fancy types that would be required for a better language.
