@datarama Whenever I examine it, I come back to parallels with the music industry, and how they turned something everyone loves into a distasteful mass produced product that is widely consumed by a small but profitable majority who does not actually care one way or the other about music but does generate revenue. :/ #shrug

"Mom... daddy's polite!"

#shrug

It’s in the monthly newsletter.
It’s in the weekly emails.
It’s in every Advent bulletin.
It’s in both Christmas Eve bulletins.
It’s in the Christmas Day bulletin.
It’s on the website.
I’ve announced it verbally before Advent and Christmas services began.
And I still have people showing up at the wrong time for today’s worship service.

Lego are the best.

Today I had to dig deep into my 20+-year-old Lego boxes (mostly leftovers, more like a graveyard than a treasure chest) to solve a very serious engineering problem. #shrug

Result: a surprisingly sturdy, very underrated Lego stand for my Heltec V4 Meshtastic node, complete with the chip and a whip antenna.

No 3D-printer nonsense, 100% childhood archaeology, questionable aesthetics, but excellent stability ! Just what I needed :)

About Time: Instagram Has Introduced A New Shrug React To Let Users Know You Saw Their Post But It Didn’t Really Do Much For You

@fedops The raspberry pi generates a "firstrun.sh" and launches it via kernel command line, to do wifi setup. Since NM now respects zero (0) hand editable files this is probably my best approach too. :/

(Or creating something less hackish but #shrug Text files were very pi friendly; this is kinda sad.)

#crochet #shrug update! One sleeve down one sleeve to go!
🩸 Das Terminbuchungstool auf Website und App von #Haema für #Blutspenden und #Plasmaspenden kommt mit #Zeitzone #UTC nicht klar! 😵 Weder auf meinem Smartphone noch auf dem Laptop. Dann kann ich leider nicht spenden, ich stell doch für euch nicht extra die Zeitzone um! 🤪 Sogar die #Bahn kann das! 😂 #Fail #Fehler #App #Digitalisierung #Medizin #ePA #shrug #bug #android #linux #browser #IT #technology #tech #software #programming #Microsoft #AspNetCore #Zeitumstellung

no.5 'might' be the one, #newmusic soon

I never 'plan' how my songs end up, I just try to follow what I 'hear' in my head.
I appear to have written the perfect 3½ minute "#singersongwriter" radio love song #shrug
