New folks coming into the Mastodon thing: please for the love of heavens, add a profile image, a description in your bio, and an # introduction post with the hashtag.
If you're trying to follow folks on here without that? Chances are you're not gonna have much luck; the vibe is different here and most folks curate their follows carefully.
So do yourself a REALLY big favor for getting started here and fill out your profile. PLEASE.
@avon_deer I'm 100% steering clear of it and staying with Masto.

3D printing itself has been a little delayed as I'm going to a BBQ this weekend (with a three hour trip each way, lol) and I'm going to be dying my hair again tonight!
Got a new motherboard for the 3D printing arriving today and that'll need firmwwre compiled for it.
If all goes well then I can start printing again on Sunday!
BLTouch sensor and dual gear extruder fitted! Also set up Debian on an old thin client to be the local access point for Octoprint, and maybe for other things too!
#introductions We cobbled together a free-to-use dialup ISP out of trash and spare parts. dialup.world is composed of four modems for simultaneous connections delivering speeds up to 33.6K.
This is currently a bunch of USR Sportsters hooked into Linux, but we are currently working on setups with Cisco gear, as well as some musings in 56K, other weird dialup appliances, and retro networking.
We also supply dialup access to the WebTV Redialed project (http://webtv.zone/) which means if you dig your WebTV out of storage and hook it into a phone line, it *just works* with no modification needed on your part!
I invite you to watch our bad ideas become reality.
i'm in love with the atkinson hyperlegible font
it's designed for differentiation and non-ambiguity between letters, so that low-vision readers can make out the differences between things like I i 1 l.
text-to-speech and similar tools primarily designed with low-vision readers have been very helpful for my ADHD, and i'm kind of curious whether this font would have any hidden benefits for me.
just ignore the fact that i do really need to go to an eye doctor
(edit: i forgot to post the link!!! happy edit notification)
re: Tepid take: Five Guys is mediocre at best.
@dragonarchitect 100% agreed. Of all the Five Guys I've been to only ONE has been any good. 1 in 6 is not a good measure of quality.
And also yes I would have BK any day over FG.
