For anyone with #MECFS or who knows someone with it, I recently learned about the Itaconate shunt hypothesis for ME/CFS which was devised by Dr Robert Phair, PhD, with Professor Ronald Davis at the Open Medicine Foundation. I am no biochemist but the video linked to on the linked page is quite interesting and may explain why I've been feeling so much better since adding daily protein smoothies to my diet. https://me-pedia.org/wiki/Itaconate_shunt_hypothesis

It's Friday and version 1.2 of "The many branches of the Fediverse" is published. Thanks everyone for your interest and engagement.

There is a changelog at the bottom of the post with more info, and you are welcome to download hi-res PNG and PDF versions of the diagram.

Do feel free to use this visual in any way you like, in your presentations, publish in your own spaces, etceteras. I'm just glad if you find it useful.

The many branches of the Fediverse

As more and more people are asking me about Mastodon I felt a need for a picture to point at, showcasing how the software known as Mastodon fits into the much larger concept of the Fediverse. I made this infographic to help myself and others explain the many different use-cases

Hi Mastodon! It’s my birthday!!! I’m 62 years young today. I’m still learning how to post photos. Not sure if you can post videos on here. If you’re here, thank you for coming to say hello! #HappyBirthday

I'm curious. How many folks would be interested in using the Analog Discovery 2 with Sigrok? I know there was an old attempt at writing a driver for the original Analog Discovery but it was never finished. I however have the AD2 and would prefer to use FLOSS when using my tools, so I might take a crack at figuring out how it works. #analogdiscovery2 #digilent #sigrok

Overall I'm happy with how my room is shaping up after the reorganisation today. Some cable management is still needed and the electronics table needs some work but I'm able to hack on projects with minimal energy overhead now :-) #chronicillness #MECFS #spoonie

The anti-repair axis's lies - that only they can perform safe and effective repairs - grow thinner every day. The true motivation - extracting monopoly rents - grows more undeniable. As ever, rights for people with disability redound to all of us.

It's not that we're all merely "temporarily able-bodied" (as Liz Henry once memorably put it to me), either.

This evening I had dinner with some old housemates who I hadn't seen in over a year. Much excitement was had.

Patients shouldn't have to be tactical about how they present their symptoms to physicians.

It's been over a decade since I last ran mail servers as a job and I outsourced my personal mail to Gmail a long time ago.
It's come time to set up some mail infrastructure for myself and some non-profit organizations. What is the current state of the art as far as #selfhosted #foss email systems go? Security, anti-spam, and a reasonable webmail frontend are all necessary.
