I don’t need to walk around in circles.

peertube is some of my favorite software for monitoring long-running tasks
Parking lot update: per today’s local newspaper, the church has lost tax exempt status for their parking lots. Based on my lackadaisical observations I don’t think they’ll collect enough 5 dollar parking fees per year to offset their tax burden plus the cost of the payment systems.

We usually manufacture all our own packages for our toys.

But every minute I'm spending messing with a printer or assembling a box is time that I'm not spending making toys.

So I'm looking for a reliable, reasonably high quality service to print packaging for our toys.

Search in the modern era is ass. It's useless.

So, I'm looking for personal recommendations. Do you have any experience with any box/packaging printers that you can recommend (or recommend against)?

Having fun with NixOS on the PineTab2: u-boot video and USB keyboard now work, so I can select the NixOS generation to boot into without needing the serial console.

There's this really excellent concert from The Olivia Tremor Control up on youtube, that I stole and put up on peertube as well.

I've never seen these guys play live, and it's absolutely thrilling to see how they pulled it off.

The audio quality isn't perfect (if you want good audio quality from the band on a live set, look at their peel session: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-J4uNNjKOo&list=RDq-J4uNNjKOo&start_radio=1)

If you don't know the band, skip the lives ets and go straight for "Music from the unrealized film script Dusk and Cubist Castle" which is perhaps my favorite album of the 1990s.

Sundog reminded me this morning that we've been on the Fediverse for 9 years this month.

That means I've known sundog for 9 years!

I can't even begin to tell you all how grateful I am that this place exists and that I was able to use it to meet my best friend.
