It's nice to get LineageOS weekly updates automatically from within the OS, no need to download from an external site.

The update process is not as intuitive as it could be - reboots to TWRP, then I had to select 'Install' and find the update package at /data/lineageos_updates.

Don't know what has changed (is there a changelog?). Noticed it has bumped up to October 5th patch level which is nice, caveats about what that actually means aside...

@nicksellen At the ICA in London? Might be doing the same!

Hey maybe I'll view that as an opportunity actually. A return to more considered listening of favourite artists and albums, rather than a constant stream of new tracks. Ooh yeah that works.

RadioDroid (and in particular the SomaFM cliqhop station) has me kicking myself I used a big streaming service for so long. Ticks all the boxes I need for music discovery and streaming background music.

I'm not quite there with offline listening yet... the funkwhale / subsonic set up still has a bit of friction I'd like to remove. I've got like 8 tracks available that I'm listening to on solid repeat when out and about at the moment...

Only slightly dubious permission asked for so far is Barcode Scanner asking for access to my contacts.

Still going strong with my degooglied tablet.

This morning getting Syncthing and Orgzly on there for syncing and using my todo list.

What's the word for when you bookmark more articles than you could possibly have the time to read?

If your Grandad was a Marxist, he'd be David Harvey.  Gather round, children, gather round... now, let me tell you a story... there is a spectre haunting Europe, and.. can anybody tell me what it is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utmWYLdZve4[...]

@clayton @agaric Not 100% sure what you're looking for, but swentel is doing lots of good #indieweb things with Drupal: https://github.com/swentel/indieweb (and indieweb is very good at syndicating to social media platforms)

Some pretty stark prognostications from Oscar Guardiola-Rivera about what fascism in Colombia and Brazil, coupled with Trump in the US, could portend.

One glimmer of positivity at the end, that there is a resistance movement already organising.
