Oh dear glob, spambots are the worst thing ever. Not only they fill the Internet text boxes and our inboxes with crap advertising, but they make us waste sooooooo bloody much time dealing with them (deleting junk, reporting spam, implementing captchas that feed proprietary artificial intelligence...).
Scum of the earth. For snake oil pills and porn scams.

Hello! I couldn't help but be drawn to this (currently) smaller, relaxed Mastodon instance. I'm a fan of using the written form as a way to explain the world to myself or express whatever I feel is good to let out.
My track record with online communities is a bit spotty, but I remember the times before Facebook and Tumblr, when dedicated smaller websites and forums reigned supreme. With that in mind, and a bit of Twitter before it became so hostile, I dip my toe into this pond.
WikiHouse is an open source project to reinvent the way we make homes.
It is being developed by architects, designers, engineers, inventors, manufacturers and builders, collaborating to develop the best, simplest, most sustainable, high-performance building technologies, which anyone can use and improve.
Our aim is for these technologies to become new industry standards; the bricks and mortar of the digital age. https://wikihouse.cc/ !hnpa
I've been working my way through the #NetlabelDay 2017 releases for my radio show, and I'm now listening to the mix I put together one year ago for Netlabel Day 2016, and it's not toooo bad, I mean the tracks are great of course but also I did not completely ridiculed myself as an amateur DJ I don't reckon: https://www.mixcloud.com/GNTL/studio-dessai-lxxx-netlabel-day-2016/

In case you didn't know: in "Jurassic Park", when Lex says "It's a Unix system! I know this!", it's not a Hollywood mockup.
What she's looking at is fsn, the File System Navigator, running on an SGI IRIS Crimson computer running the IRIX filesystem. IRIX was a variant of Unix System V with BSD extensions.
@Waldenpond trying to reduce here too. A big chunk of our landfill waste was soft plastic it turned out, which we've found can be recycled with a network separate to our council's collection (I live in Australia). Our landfill production is quite low now, for an Australian household. But yeah, I want to get more into bulk stuff to reduce general packaging usage.
