    I'm pleased with this result in my #audiogames
    In #2MB #MineRacer, I made it to position 1 on the time scoreboard, and position 1 on the points scoreboard, my total time was 11 minutes and 59 seconds! I scored 4595237 points, jumped 56 pits, ducked 52 stalactites, and collected 415 coins! I ended my adventure at the bottom of a pit! https://social.mayfirst.org/url/1872306
    The fall isn't the problem, it's the sudden stop that kills. I get knocked down, but I get up again... lol

    Which one was at the conference, with no case? Board felt pretty heavy, and that, without battery or screen. I guess I should try a Droid phone someday, but my first impression of using a touch screen was terrible and lasting. There's an Amazon Swindle in the house; I spent a couple weeks trying to teach me to use it with its accessibility; typing is impossible, and navigating is frustrating. I have a 'feature phone' that talks to me and has real buttons.

    When I started in the #hamradio game, there were lots of folks who would fix gear as a favor; not so much, lately. My first station and semi-automatic keyer were a gift from 'Elmer'.

    Preordering the Purism phome; you are brave! I didn't get to touch the laptop, but like the idea of hardware switches for cam, mic, and wifi thing. The phone will have those, too? I appreciate Purism having the phone's board available for looking and touching.

    I think you should use a #mediagoblin instance, like http://goblinrefuge.com or make your own. You'll get rss feed, comments section, etc... And, #mediagoblin is #FOSS

    While I was !listening to your raw podcast, I thought, "Brandon's washing dishes", before you confirmed this. No problem! Your over-all volume is a little low; I had to max out vlc to get it comfortable.

    Re: funding #FOSS was chatting about this with a friend over dinner during #libreplanet conference. He proposed a "users' union", with feedback from dues-paying members getting extra attention. Paying and non-paying users would benefit equally. Sounds like the Patrion model?

    #WordOfTheDay

    abilitate

    /əˈbɪlɪteɪt/
    verb
    rare
    with object
    To enable; to endow with ability or capacity; to make fit.

    Origin
    Early 17th century; earliest use found in John Preston (1587–1628), Church of England clergyman. Variant of habilitate.

    ========

    Henry's family connections smoothed his path. His own effort, while good, was not in a vacuum. A call to the dean abilitated Hank's entry into Princeton.

    Having something installed by default does not make it popular.
