@kyle if you get a chance, consider getting something like this. I found it to be a useful and inexpensive upgrade. Wastes less wort & easier to read.

@kyle interesting. Never fermented in keg (have used buckets but usually use glass carboys). Some get extra active like Belgian Quads, so having a blow-off tube option is handy.

@kyle a friend just got a BrewZilla so gave that a try. Curious to see how the grainfather compares

@pamela "waitlists" and "borrow limits"? I had somehow missed that archive.org has gone DRM.

@mhoye @antifuchs what don't you like about the software? So far I've only tried SimpleScan which amazingly found my LiDE 100 (I think) and started scanning at the push of a button. Multiple pages into PDF, or single pages saved as the usual suspect formats in a straightforward manner. Good defaults for text vs photo.

Having ignored scanners since the xsane days, this seemed too easy.

Did you know that Mozilla is collecting a public domain dataset of annotated speech? This will help develop open source voice-controlled programs. The Common Voice project still needs volunteers both to donate their voice, and to validate other people's recordings.

#CommonVoice

I just validated a bunch of recordings (English and German) and am happy to report that there are now quite a few female speakers donating.

@z428 Funny you should ask :) - we use BigBlueButton & Jitsi Meet, Rocket.Chat, NextCloud + OnlyOffice, and Mailcow - I just wrote this up for people's reference : ) - tech.oeru.org/working-home

@kyle in that case, start an ale to tide you over!

@kyle only 3-4 weeks before it's ready. If possible, start a lager at the same time :)

I feel like reminding people that we've just passed the 1 year anniversary of a Fox News host telling the world he doesn't wash his hands because germs don't exist since he can't see them.

On being yourself 

@shouko built-in integration with a nextcloud server that they also box up so you can easily host it yourself.

Continuous updates on devices that LOS has long ago abandoned.

Stripping out the extra Google checks, DNS usage & interactions from LOS and other applications.

For the past 18 months or so, I've had the privilege of participating in a pilot of Rocket.Chat by GC - Government Canada. Their IT folk are taking their Digital Nations ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_ ) ambitions seriously... Interestingly, their thousands of users *prefer* Rocket.Chat over Slack & MSFT Teams.

This is actually valuable advice, and I reckon applies to Twitter as well.
