@bunnylyn @boobs_idiot you'd be surprised how many folks are interested in that.

@gargron 2/2 once I'm interested in a project and want to extend it or contribute, then I want the technical details. So an easy to find front page link to technical/contributor stuff is great. Until then, though, I don't care if something's implemented in the cloud using a combination of Rust, Go, and ActivityPub, or implemented by a band of caffeine crazed penguins on South Georgia Island using Snobol4.

@gargron 1/2 I strongly recommend against. I'm a developer and can appreciate the structure and implementation of elegant projects such as Mastodon, but as a user I'm interested in "what does X do for me? How do I do it? What part of the user experience differentiates X and makes it better?" Projects with technical and implementation front pages are at best navel gazing, and at worst indicate a "we don't give a shit about users" attitude. In that case I always go somewhere else.

Home again home again jiggity-jig. 16C and foggy. Not exactly my preferred weather, but great for uprooting all the damned sun loving invasive weeds.

Bonus! I found two wild strawberries in the process, not yet eaten by the fieldmice. Tiny but very tasty! (The berries, silly, not the mousies).

@julianproxy and lived to tell the tale! Congratulations!

This plant was covered with bees and butterflies.

@Mainebot I thought it was due to the drought. Or is that only in California?

If every octodon user donated $1/mo to @CobaltVelvet, our instance mommy would make +$121,000/yr and her taxes alone would buy school lunches for a gazillion kids and paint 10 miles of bike lanes. Support society, make @CobaltVelvet rich.

@Gogogadgetpants it's a weekend for adventure! Hope you have a great time!

Eight hour shift of loafing by the river, throwing sticks for dogs, drinking beer, reading, and napping.

No pictures because I left my phone on the charger by accident. But it was an excellent day: we had to drive to town for doggy meds, and found a good brewpub and drank many tasty beers while the dogs lounged on the cool concrete. Back to camp to splash in the river and throw sticks for the dogs. Then a 1.5 mile sunset walk along the trail with Mercalli, tasty dinner, and now bedtime as soon as this beer is finished. Humans and doggos are dirty smelly tired happy.

@fenwick67 they'll say "hah hah those wacky Mayans even baked their weird calendar into their operating system"

OMG! what if... Show more

@linhares not a big swimmer, but he sploshed around and cooled off nicely
