idk if any mutuals have/want a newsletter and want to switch to Ghost, but I will literally help you migrate to Ghost from your static site, Substack, whatever for free; just because I think Ghost and its recommendation network and its ActivityPub features are all so awesome 🙏

I *really* want to get the network effect going with an open-source platform and leave Substack in the dust. So yeah hmu lol

I'm just running my own #Mastodon instance here, so I don't have a ton of reach.

I'd love it if any of you who are willing would boost/quote this post.

My current SRE role is coming to an end, and the current market is scary.

The most current project was getting 3 line-of-business applications (for a national retailer!) moved to AWS, with some infra design, and lots of Terraform and Ansible.

I've got some Python chops, too.

I'm looking for a new role, remote preferred, or local to the PDX area.

Hello, Mastodon family! It's been a long time coming, but Xubuntu has officially left X behind!

https://x.com/Xubuntu/status/1886754277177123276

If you're still using X, consider sharing our update to spread awareness. We'll continue to bring you the best of #Xfce and #Linux... all in one place.

(edit: because everything is confusing and nothing makes sense... we're leaving X, formerly known as Twitter, not X11. Wayland is still very much in the future!)

Currently there are still people alive who fought for the freedom of the world in the Second World War against the nazi's, there are not much anymore but they certainly are still here!

I think it's safe to say that #WWII was the most terrible war we've ever had

We are now living in a time where the architects of those horrific times are getting adored, imitated and even praised, this is nothing less then truly disgusting and dangerous

Stand up against #fascism, do not accept or ignore it

Server bills are paid for! ✅ Bank account is super sad again 💸

Just a friendly reminder that non of our services run ads or track you! Admins pay the costs from their own pockets with help from the community, if possible ofc! ❤️

thank you 

I've been thinking about this for ages, but never had the time to craft the words around it.

People keep saying that "Maths should be fun" ... and I push back with "It should be engaging ... 'fun' is a different thing.

So @rakhichawla has posted pretty much exactly this, but better than I ever could.

I'm copying it here with permission.

Please read this, then as it says at the end ... let's have a deeper conversation about this ...

1/n

(PS: I'd love this to get boosted to get outside my bubble ... you're all amazing, but there will be other opinions, and other thoughts that could be helpful or valuable)
