Today I biked 8 miles to pick up some paper plates. 2mi to get them, 2mi home, 2 more when I realized I had 2 sets instead of the one I paid for and went back to return them, and finally 2 back home. Honesty is a good workout. 🚲😅
Got outside for a 16 mile bike ride after work today. legs are tired but it feels good 😅
Went whale watching for the first time today! We saw a good number of whales including a fin whale and several humpback whales! What majestic beings 🐋
Interesting thread!
People seem to be discussing:
- a way to have your activities, which could be notes or other stuff, transmitted by some sort of general purpose activitypub server that would relay your activities to other actors
- Maybe those servers can accept activities of different and specify which ones they support
- Maybe clients that talk to those activitypub servers could also support different kinds of activities and have entirely different experiences based on those
- Ideally you could single identity that you could use to do all of that instead of multiple identities on different servers
I have to agree that would be pretty cool!

Can someone explain to me how it makes any sense for Pixelfed to be a thing that has its own accounts, rather than being an ActivityPub client whos...
😮
I FIGURED IT OUT I ZAPPED A NOTE FOR THE FIRST TIME 😁⚡
Now I know how to receive AND send 🙌
I know it probably seems silly because it's one of the most basic things on nostr I guess but I'm so excited!
GrubHub gaslighting me for the driver delivering my food to a different house and not answering the phone in spite of it being the correct address and my having a *description of the building* in the delivery instructions… 🧐
Been trying out GNOME on my raspberry pi the past couple of days. I started with MATE then added Xfce (Xfce has long been a favorite for me)
I am coming back to Desktop Linux after a pretty long time away… like Ubuntu brown to Ubuntu orange days with GNOME 2 😁 oh and the endless fights with modprobe and ndiswrapper to get my wifi working
But back to GNOME. It's… different… but after the first hour of WHAT IS HAPPENING I guess I think its actually kinda nice. Go figure! 😂
I biked to the beach today using the Pointz app because I wanted a safer route since I wasn't riding alone. Was it safer? Definitely. Was it worth it? Wellllll… It fully added *2 miles* to what would have been a 3 mile route. Next time I will either toggle it to be more flexible or I don't know use my best judgement or something 🤣
It's a rainy evening. Worked a little after hours and then watched a great video about Aphex Twin.
Learned a few things and got a few new artists to listen to. 😄
Also I guess I need to figure out this zapping stuff now 🤔
Riding my bike has been strange the past couple of days. The mopeds have been out everywhere. In the streets. In the bike lanes. On the sidewalks. Running the red lights. 😬
Even saw a few popping wheelies (I didn't know that was a thing 🤣)
How the workday is going: Today I'm procrastinating on working on a ticket by completing multiple other tickets 🥲
Biked out to the Arnold arboretum today 
Bought a folding bike on Facebook marketplace. Probably paid too much for it but after some scrubbing it looked pretty good! I took it to work today 😁
Meanwhile I need to take my regular bike in to get the spoke repaired… again 😮💨
Dune 2 was really really good.
