primary Mastodon presence now at [email protected]
Hi, I'm a #nine avoiding responsibility. #TIL mastodons were smaller than African elephants, and much smaller than mammoths. Check out this Mastodon skeleton next to a regular human man. Way smaller than I expected. I also learned that #Michigan had a pretty big mastodon population.

Using the Michigan cooler for a roughly 200F temperature drop for the boiled wort.

@anna @Cornellbox that's cool, and I salute you for doing so.

Hi Anna! My primary Mastodon account is @Cornellbox

Is nowhey it's own instance?

@Csalzman Thanks for flagging that.

I know that Chris via Birdsite, &c. But someday I gotta meet in person

To put into perspective what is happening, here is 6 month of history of the processing required to run mastodon.social:

@Csalzman Welcome welcome!

This may or may not be the best instance to be in, ultimately.But it's a good place to start, and to get your bearings a bit.

And wholly agree on the 1:1 replacement issue. But that's not what we want. We want a similarly active, connective experience, and with a sufficient web of people, I think it'll do it.

Like a whole lot of other people, I'm re-ramping my Mastodon presence and damping down the #birdsite

Gonna try to drag a few more people over, because it's ultimately the richness of the web that makes it all work.

Corridor, flanked by collapsed roof deck on the left (sun through the cracks above make the concrete look like it's glowing); I go some interesting places from time to time.
I mean, I enjoy going out to project sites and engaging with project issues and all that. But after last week of rainy, windy, wet, and oh-dark-early, it's nice to have a roof overhead.
