@davidgerard@circumstances.run The next investment trend will be either Quantum or Space Stuff so pivot to one of those

@GlasWolf@mastodon.scot I think it comes down to whether or not 50k is a life-changing amount of money for you

I am having a go with Jellyfin... Set up a server on the Raspberry Pi with Docker and installed the app on Android. Seems like I can "download" files to the device. Looks promising so far.

@GlasWolf@mastodon.scot , oh, I think @sunpig@mastodon.scot beat me to that observation. Then I will add that generally money is nonlinear in that if you have twice as much money it makes you a little more well-off but not _twice_ as much.
@kodamux@mstdn.party Hi and welcome. Follow some tags for topics that interest you to fill your feed with posts.
Final day of Ridgeway walking finished. We diverted from the official route and took the Marlborough Railway Path from Chiseldon to Ogbourne St.George (church pictured) where we picked up the National Trail again. Finished in Avebury around 3pm with a pint of cider.

@Gustodon@mas.to You need to go to Settings gs>user>personalization settings, scroll down to the section Torment Settings, then check the "Receive less torment for the next 7 days". You will need to re-enable this setting after 7 days.
Shout out to #ÖBB (Austrian Railways) who just refunded me in full for my journey from Ljubljana to Florence last month which was delayed. They even paid €120 for a taxi to rush us across the border to Italy to catch a connection, and first class tickets for the final 2h leg of the journey. #austria #railway #travel

Today we continued from Wantage to Chiseldon, stopping at the Uffington White Horse and Wayland's Smithy. 40000 steps. I'm bloody knackered. #ridgeway #Oxfordshire #Berkshire #wiltshire #walking

Yay! Successfully imaged my #raspberrypi SD card and cloned it onto a larger card as my 32GB one was threatening to fill up. All appears to still be working despite accidentally skipping over the "you probably should unmount everything before you expand the volume" message from raspi-config. Oops!

@256 I remember around 2004 laughing and laughing with a friend about what you could do with a 1TB drive one day when we were curious and looked up what was the biggest consumer drive you could get at the time.

@Lazarou@mastodon.social Could you imagine? General election is called, the major parties all declare "We have all agreed not to stand a candidate in Clacton because it was too f**king funny last time watching Farage sweat about the prospect of losing to a bin."
Tolerance and acceptance should be seen as positive masculine traits. Why? Well look at the opposite - fear and rejection of anything slightly outside of your specific comfort zone. Doesn't sound very masculine. Acceptance of the unknown requires bravery. In a good way.

@fesshole@mastodon.social I think there is a sort of statute of limitations on these things
Idea: #startrek series where O'Brian and Bashir are posted as Captain and First Officer on a Starfleet research vessel. They have to resist getting stuck in to the minutiae of their respective areas of expertise and learn to let the ship's Chief Engineer and Medical Officer get on with things and make the occasional mistakes.
Call it Redshirts.
8647 is a prime number that can be expressed both in the form:
k^2-2,
and in the form:
k(k+1)/2+1.
There are only 3 smaller primes that share both properties (2, 7 and 79).
