@natcbr@mountains.social yes that would be OK. You'd have to act as intermediary though, in the case that someone is interested.

Would any wood workers / turners in Naarm/Melbourne be interested in free garden-grown Hakea laurina (Pincushion hakea)? The tree died unexpectedly - it's been here well over 30 years.

Send a PM for address (eastern suburbs) and be prepared to divide or for heavy lifting.

@jon how exactly do you solidify hydrogen? Seems to me that if even possible it would have to expend a lot of energy to do so?

@tallandtrue it's unfortunate that's such a gendered term. Today's closest equivalents would all seem to me to be women (NOT the orange monster though!)

@phloggen@expressional.social @gsuberland@chaos.social I've taken the digital testament a step further. My self hosted service will execute shell and send emails if I miss two weeks acknowledgements (sends keepassxc file and password to family among other actions)
