I have way too much fun comparing hardware and software supply chain security to food supply chain security: https://puri.sm/posts/from-fab-to-table-librem-5-usa-supply-chain-security/

@PublicNuisance@fosstodon.org I use Matrix, XMPP, IRC and many other messaging networks, but I have people who primarily use Signal, so I need to do the same when I want to chat with them.

@thrrgilag Primary. Previous primary app throws up an in-app notification that it's been deregistered.

Signal is one of the last things I use my old Android phone for. I've been trying out the latest axolotl Signal client on my #Librem5 and while it isn't feature complete and it's an Electron app, it's functional enough for the basic chatting I do that I don't need to go back.

The key to making good coffee is consistency. Perform the same steps in the same order the same way every time. Not for flavor, but so you can make coffee before you've had coffee.

Before and during WW1 nations attempted to ban weapons that were too frightening or that gave one side an advantage, including dropping bombs from planes/blimps, firing from subs while underwater, and chemical weapons. Didn't work. https://www.businessinsider.com/killer-drone-hunted-down-human-target-without-being-told-un-2021-5

That scene in The Dark Knight where Batman turns everyone's cellphones into a massive surveillance network, was supposed to be a cautionary tale, not a project roadmap.

The finished product.

Every year or two around St. Patrick's Day I buy some extra corned beef when it's on sale and then later on I turn it into pastrami. It's a simple process: add a pepper and coriander rub, smoke it like any other brisket, and a few hours later you got pastrami.

@ajmartinez started with a trout crudo, then spanish style cod cakes as the main course.

@Columbkille @benis @ruff I suspect it's not trolling, just different guidance in different countries due to the different types of vaccines being used throughout the world, each with different rates of efficacy.

@le_ArthurDent@mastodon.social Thanks it's (literally) growing on me as well!

@ruff @Columbkille @benis I'm specifically talking about recent real-world studies on efficacy of Moderna and Pfizer (these studies I believe were part of what changed recent CDC guidance). My understanding is that while other vaccines also show some level of protection against transmission, it's not as high.

@benis @Columbkille Thanks for your concern, but expert consensus is that people with post-vaccination immunity do not spread the virus.

It's been two weeks since my second vaccination, so we celebrated our immunity by eating *inside* a restaurant for the first time in a long time. It was weird but also amazing.
