RE: https://social.ridetrans.it/@dx/117346120697256748 This Kickstarter is so, so cheap. How can you resist when people say it's thinky plus whatever fun there is just in the coloring!

I have played this and it is clever. I also found it extremely provocative as a game designer. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/lunarpunkgames/colorjam

If anyone is looking for strength training in zoom classes, for the past few months I've been going to https://staceysorgencoaching.com/

She has classes at (Pacific time) 0610, 0710, and 1010. The classes are generally 5-7 middle-aged-to-old cis ladies, but she's had men and trans people of all flavors, and she's queer herself. Very welcoming and encouraging and chill. Some chatter in class about random things. Good for PT.

Another "semester" is due to start on the 30th and you can try a class free. Mondays are arm days, Wednesdays heart rate/core days, Fridays are leg days, Tuesday and Thursday are balance and all around

@jonobie Quite interesting! For my headaches tylenol does nothing, but it might help with body aches so I'll reach for it more

On a similar note, people are very rah rah about Mastodon, but my instance is run by a guy in America who has a family in America, and he's a great guy but I don't expect him to say "no I'll go to jail instead of moderating as you prefer, political officer" My impression is that #Mastodon is a huge PITA to set up on raw metal and most people use a hosting service. Which of those are set up to resist American pressure? #section230

@naominovik I like the part in the Australia book where the dragon has learned many languages and decides it will stay and help organize. Kind of a "wouldn't it be nice" thing.

I'm on an intercity double decker train from Den Haag to Amsterdam and the trip is about an hour long... And I realized that this is like traveling on Caltrain from San Jose to San Francisco Given 800-1000 years of history, San Mateo could develop enough distinct culture to be a household name like Leiden is 😄

Traveling always brings interesting comparisons. Like, America: not great on the vending machine front, utterly smoked by Japan... But a long sight better than the Netherlands But! We went on a seal watching tour, and afterwards hopped off the boat ourselves instead of standing in line for the gangplank. Skipper didn't care at all. No silly "protect human from themself/us from lawsuits" mentality

RE: https://federate.social/@mattblaze/116953491439286746 Matt is doing great explaining in this thread, despite a flood of mastodon Germans* who know everything that is wrong with America *If only mastodon culture had been seeded from a country less judgy and arrogant. These people may just be from mastodon, not specifically German

@mattblaze@federate.social

A central problem in US election security is the size and complexity of ballots in most jurisdictions make automation essential in practice for accurately tallying votes. But automation (especially involving computers and software) is inherently untrustworthy (software has bugs, and can be quietly replaced with malware). This seemed like an impossible, unresolvable tradeoff until two recent breakthroughs: the notion of "software independence" and methods for practical "risk-limiting audits"

RE: https://dice.camp/@sage/116993249003300393 Wow. I'd wondered how expensive it was to run a mastodon instance... Looks like, about $2.25/month per active user 😮

@GrahamDowns@mastodon.africa Different words for different contexts. If I'm explaining to a Lyft driver what I do, I'm a programmer. If I'm explaining to fancy tech people why they should hire me, I'm an engineer.
