While I wasn't able to get #patchwork running on my new machine (and honestly I didn't try that hard), it looks like #oasis installed super easily, so now I can look around the #scuttleverse and finally use #SecureScuttlebutt / #ssb on my own.

Libro.fm, provider of #DRMFree #AudioBooks and contributor to funding local #bookstores, is reaching out to current owners of Ibram X. Kendi’s _How to Be an Antiracist_ with a coupon code to provide an additional copy to share with others

“NOTES: The author will still receive royalties, as Libro.fm is paying for this copy of their audiobook”

One more reason I’m so much happier supporting #LibroFM rather than #Audible and #Amazon

If you recently received your @PINE64 #PineBookPro with the recent batch and were saddened to see the #FoldingAtHome package in @ManjaroARM isn’t working, don’t dismay!

#BOINC & #RosettaAtHome are both available via Pamac and now support protein folding on #ARM devices. You can help contribute toward solving #COVID19 and other biomedical problems! There’s even a https://hackers.town team, too (currently in the Top 25% tier!) https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/team_display.php?teamid=18992

I love it when two posts in my timeline come together to send a combined message

So... I didn't expect or plan on going down the rabbit hole of "learn how to be a professional wrestler" youtube videos this evening... but some of this is just general well delivered professional and life advice

Topics available on the original #MetaFilter / #MF post I found the channel in: https://www.metafilter.com/185964/Til-We-Make-It

I’d never seen the symbol before joining #XOXO / #XOXOFest slack, and found it something I wish more platforms had…

… then I remembered I’m now my own admin and can easily add emojos… this may get me into trouble…

@Are0h@playvicious.social Especially ironic when Hollywood was literally founded by folks trying to escape patent control: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/51722/thomas-edison-drove-film-industry-california

@GwenfarsGarden @stolas@elekk.xyz I’m a kobo owner and can confirm it does almost all of those. I’m not sure about searching for highlights though (never tried)

@mwlucas Our condolences. Thank you for being such a good big-friend-person to such a good good Boy.
