The first rule of passive-aggressive club is something you really should remember at this point. It's not like this is the first meeting you've attended, after we went to all the trouble of organising them. But no matter, it's fine. Everyone learns at their own pace, I guess.

If my kids were reading this, they would use his example as justification for using verbs like “brung” and “aten”.

#BuenasNoches desde #Asturias
En el autocar
puedes hablar
callar
mirar al paisaje
O simplemente, escuchar
tu silencio acompañado
el murmullo de la gente
la dicha de viajar
en el autocar sentado
voy de camino a otro lugar.

Looking for a buddy - Proxmox containers, Coopcloud or other packaged solution


!Selfhosted - I'm looking for a buddy to work through using #Proxmox to host a packaged / integrated solution to cover suite of self hosted applications together.

I'd like to find someone who is exploring this space and step through implementing a solution - rather than experience / guidance from someone who's already done it before so I'd just be asking them a heap of questions and being a general pain in the backside.

Sort of light fellow students learning a language I'd like to explore hosting friendica or a similar social media server, #homeassistant #nextcloud, a media server ( #jellyfin maybe), #email #personalfinance and other applications within a framework such as CoopCloud, Yunohost or something else) - I have some experience with #openwrt - which I use for VPNs

Is anyone else out there on a similar learning curve - Are you based in #Madrid, #Barcelona in Spain or #London, #Huddesfield in the UK or close by? I'd be up for some in person meets and chats as well as online. (Now I feel like I'm writing a profile for a dating site ) - Is this weird. I like my hobby but I'd like it to be more social - and develop, or more likely adopt some design patterns that can be used by others.

If you don't find someone, maybe you can find a hackerspace or the like in those locations. There might be people already doing what you are currently looking into.

Somewhere along the line I lost my Jazztel Ipv6 Connectivity


!OpenWrt - I think it was when I replaced my router with a new #BananapiR3 but my #openwrt v24 router has lost its #ipv6 connectivity from #Jazztel #fibre and I can't figure out why. - I have vague memories of something blocking it in the past (or did it just work when I connected it - I can't remember) but its annoying me now I have #hetzner #ddns running.

Iced Raktajino doesn't like this.

“Virgin and Alstom have entered a binding agreement for the train manufacturer to supply 12 of its Avelia Stream sets for the company’s Channel Tunnel bid which it is currently exploring.”

Sooooo many questions!

“Binding agreement” means an order? Or not?

Why single deck Stream not double deck Horizon?

Can they get these before Kevin Speed / Illisto and Italo?

Sincerely delighted to discover, 45 minutes into this nearly-wordless three-hour documentary about French monks who take vows of silence, that among the reasons they can talk is "to make sure the monastery cats know when it's mealtime by making little kitty-calling noises at them."


Slippy (@damnslippy.slippy.me‬) on Bluesky, Jan. 11, 2025 (archive)

As she says in a follow-up post, the documentary is Philip Gröning's Into Great Silence (2005).

And because I go the extra mile for you folks, here's the scene, although you should really watch the whole documentary (in higher resolution) for the full effect.
