DDG is changing my searches for PinePhone stuff to iPhone stuff :|

I went years without seeing the word "nothingburger" -- not sure I've ever seen it used before in fact -- and here it is in my life, twice in one week. That's a somethingsandwich!

@mindspillage So cool. I had a bee the size of my thumb just hovering outside the back door staring at me through the window for a good part of yesterday. Maybe they take videos too...

@liw I also run NextCloud, for calendar, contacts, and notes. It's great. Not sure if I would use it if I were *only* looking for calendar, but probably.

@kyle any workarounds you know? I feel like one of the terminal emulators out there has a menu option to send CTRL, but I can't remember which...

@kyle Is there a way to send CTRL from squeekboard? (Using it on another phone...)

First #LibrePlanet keynote just started, watch at libreplanet.org/2020/live/

Have a project or idea to introduce? You can still upload a 5-minute lightning talk for #LibrePlanet -- https://libreplanet.org/wiki/LibrePlanet:Conference/2020/Lightning_Talks

I get this weird nostalgic feeling when I see spam subject lines I recognize from the past but haven't seen in a long time.

Still getting travel deal emails from lots of companies. Maybe don't do that.

@dthompson just switched people myself because only email guy would send me was telling me to call him.

We just make the same mistakes over and over again. From the NYT corrections: "A caption...referred incorrectly to the character played by Boris Karloff in the 1931 film 'Frankenstein'. It was the monster, not Frankenstein."

"In it, they demanded records of all devices using Google services that had been near the woman’s home when the burglary was thought to have taken place." https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/google-tracked-his-bike-ride-past-burglarized-home-made-him-n1151761
