    Can't you do better than that? It was more than 10 years ago that I closed my FB account. You need to figure out something I still have & use.

    Today is "where do elephants live" day. YouTube is full of garbage machine generated videos (about 40 seconds each) under this topic. This is one of those times when I hate "monetization". Without it, there'd be no motivation for using #AI or other #bots to make this garbage.

    Discussion of the New Madrid Seismic Zone and its potential for a major earthquake.

    I drove to the town of New Madrid in 2009 to try to see the fault line, but it isn’t visible on the surface. (I remember reading that the church bells rang in Boston during the 1811 and 1812 earthquakes.)

But lying deep underground in the middle of the United States, is a little known area called the New Madrid Seismic Zone. At some point, this area, which is in the middle of the North American plate, will shake the entire region causing extreme damage that people aren't expecting. Here's why this region of the United States is so seismically active and what will happen when the inevitable earthquake does hit.

    My half son Daddy_A reports that his wife cheated and left. He didn't say who has the kids or whether they've started the legal part of breaking up. SonTwo said that she's always been controlling (true!), so he expected something like this to happen all along.

    I didn't expect it, simply because they've been through so much together that I figured that neither one would waste all that they've invested in the relationship.

    He's hurting, and I'm sure the rest of the family are also hurting.

    Naps helped a little. GS5 remained grumpy and clingy most of the day, but he was much improved over the way he started the day. GS4 got a little whiny, but it didn't progress far. When I picked him up and told him I was hungry for toes, he laughed with joy and alternately tried to keep his feet away from my face, then put them near and said "you can't eat my toes".

    Now we're about to start looking for a MVNO cellular telephone service (and a low-priced compatible phone). Son_2 paid the bill for March, but that's double what they were paying already ... and they've also been looking to reduce the cost of their phone plan.

    I remember when I was in college & university, the US Bureau of Prisons used to come to my campus job fair every year. When they found out that I was putting myself through school by working in fast food (and lots of loans), they tried really hard to get me to hire on as a kitchen supervisor over a crew of inmates. I wasn't ready to work with inmates carrying knives, so I declined. Since I was studying management, if they'd had more managerial positions, I might have considered applying.

    Though I now know that I wouldn't have lasted anyway. Years later, I participated in a few hours of prison ministry and it was one of the most frightening experiences in my life ... none of the inmates threatened me in any way, but the whole environment--including the "we have no obligation to rescue you if something happens" agreement that I had to sign in order to participate--was innately threatening.

    I'd also say there should be some !fnetworks ancillary infrastructure:
    * Single sign-on system that is integrated into all servers
    * !XMPP server, potentially one integrated with #Matrix or something like #Mattermost
    * #IRC and/or #SILC
    * code-hosting (something like https://kallithea-scm.org/ or https://www2.fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki )

    1. Kallithea
      Kallithea, a free software source code management system supporting two leading version control systems, Mercurial and Git.

    I consider these to be sustainability efforts. If a codebase goes stagnant and !fnetworks cannot find the resources to contribute, then issues that arise become permanent. If, on the other hand, one or more Federati members continue solving problems and moving the codebase forward through its rough spots, things can improve ... or they can work out an official migration tool to move instances to software that is still being developed.

    I also think that there should be multiple instances under the same umbrella. They don't all have to run the same software. So there could be a GNU social instance, a Friendica instance, and maybe a Mastodon, Pleroma, or Misskey instance combined with single-sign-on. The thing is that whatever software gets run, there should be someone who administers it and hopefully someone who contributes development time to the upstream project.

    One of my frustrations has been that as GS development repeatedly stagnated, my job and home situations combined to keep me sidelined from becoming an active contributor.

    What I've been thinking about recently is sustainability. I'd like to re-launch !fnetworks in the future, but this time I would like to launch is as a community project from the beginning, one that isn't dependent upon one person to do all the funding, administration, or moderation.

    In this time of extremists and of bot generated content, I think it should never be open registration, and I also think most policy changes should be subjected to a vote of a group of members.

    This morning, Grandson_3 woke his brothers early. As a result, Grandson_5 is extra complainy and extra clingy, and Grandson_4 is likely to become so in a bit. I think we're going to try to get them to nap early and hopefully longer than the usual hour or two.
