I had the weirdest dream during a nap today.
There was this exercise ball like bump on the wall, under the paint. I poked it hard enough that it deflated, leading to find a cistern in my wall was leaking into the wall.
At no point did any of this seem unusual.

“My character is asexual”
Nice
“They reproduce asexually”
Huh?
“Via budding”

I was made aware of an issue when searching on the Squawk.social instance. Tracked the issue down to a broken elastic search which is now fixed and rebuilding the indexes.
Searching maybe a little wonky for a short time, but no more 500s :wsking: !

Things I learned while suiting for the first time:
It’s way hotter inside than you would expect. I knew it would be warm, I even wore the body suit for an hour at home, but once you are actually up and moving, it gets very very hot.
Bring extra clothing dedicated to suiting. I had two sets of heatgear for the suit, I would use one and wash it after, using the second set while it dried. 3 or 4 sets would have been waaaaaay better.
Head cooling is essential. I added a small 5v fan at the last minute and am glad I did. The inconvenient wiring cause it to unplug a few times and it was an urgent matter to get it plugged back in. Side note: try to mount the power for your head cooling IN THE HEAD.
I was successfully able to suit a few times solo, but even having a friend available with you makes it a lot less worrisome.
Headless lounge is your best friend. Take advantage of them. Even if it’s just a short de head and stripping back the upper suit.
I have ideas on how to cool the body better. Going to experiment on some ideas, will share any findings and failures!

Things I learned today:
A few people really want 3D movies to come back.
A few people really want 3D movies to die.

Unpopular opinion, 3D TVs are cool and now that TV tech has come down in price they should make a return.

My primary workhorse 3D printer turns 10 years old this year. It’s an amalgamation of the original build and new parts. It’s not fast, but it’s incredibly reliable and modified to be truly mine.
Is it bad I’ve become emotionally attached to a mediocre machine?

AI chat models seem to be all the rage, but they waste our power and water all while stealing our original content, they seem to miss the mark. If only there was a better chatbot, one that is accurate and gives you exactly what you want every time.
:brd_bluejay: The wait is over and I would like to unveil our new chat bot made for the birds, by the birds.
:brd_hornedowl: Three tuned modes depending on the workload.
🐔 There is a bot for every need you could ever have!
