richmurrillsNot only did my 3D Printer die today, my Server crashed after a power failure. It's normally pretty resilient but decided to play up today. Thankfully I have all my VMs backed up but not what I needed after a busy day 🤬

#OMN (Open Media Network)Rebalance, by shifting focus from tools to cultures
Appropriate technology in activist tech means tools built for our real contexts, not for Silicon Valley fantasies or bunker-dwelling paranoia. It’s about lightweight, repairable, understandable systems that communities can actually run, adapt, and share.

THAT'S WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY!
Flicking through my notebook (I try to write things down when I watch an #OReilly #SuperStream or read a tech book, so I remember it more and can reference it in future).
And… NOOOOO! I wrote three things from "Effective Python" on a right-hand page, and then the pages must have been stuck together because I've just found a blank spread of pages before the rest of the notes from the book 😭
