To kick off #Nicetober, I thought I'd do a daily word that has a positive social meaning. Today's word is: companionable. It means friendly and sociable. Nice and simple, someone who's easy to get along with.
#Nicetober word of the day number 2: amicable. An amicable person is friendly, peaceable, and good natured.

#Nicetober
@lunduke I'm on board! This is an excellent time for such a "detox", as I'm sure a lot of us are still moving toward open social platforms like mastodon, which is a great time to set a tone for our presences. Still going to try #Nicetober across all platforms, though!
@lunduke I'm actually a little bit scared. I've never seen you be anything but nice. Are you going to show the world that it is actually possible to be "too nice"?

I love it, very Jewish.
"And there was evening and morning, the start of Nicetober."
Buckle up for some serious positivity, boys and girls.
#Nicetober begins at sundown.
My run through of the Librem 5 privacy and security-focussed mobile phone... What a joy to finally have it in my hands! My congratulations to the extraordinary team at Purism.

Ahead of #Nicetober, I am going to be un-following any accounts that post, like, or re-tweet any content that is:
- Mean-spirited
- Dehumanizing
- Vilifying
- Vulgar
Doesn't mean I don't like you. Doesn't mean you're not an amazing person. I just want to avoid that content.
On that same note, if you are going to be participating in #Nicetober, let me know! I'd love to follow (and amplify) more folks spreading love and kindness!
Let's be nice. To everyone. All October. #Nicetober

"The Librem 5 is unlike anything else on the market. Not only is it one of the only smartphones on Earth that doesn't ship with Android, a fork of Android, or iOS—Purism's commitment to 100% open software, with no binary blobs..." https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/09/purisms-librem-5-phone-starts-shipping-a-fully-open-gnulinux-phone/ #linux #opensource #librem5 #smartphone #pureos #gnome
"The Librem 5 is, arguably, the first smartphone available that focuses on privacy and security because it does not exploit nor track the user’s digital footprint. The Librem 5 features, hardware kill switches, layered security protection, decentralized and IP-native communication, user-controlled sourced code, and hardware encryption." https://www.fosslinux.com/21079/long-anticipated-librem-5-linux-phones-start-shipping.htm #privacy #security #purism #librem5 #linux #smartphone

The first Librem 5 smartphones are shipping https://puri.sm/posts/first-librem-5-smartphones-are-shipping/ “This is a big moment, not just for us as a company, but for everyone concerned about issues of privacy, security, and user freedom. The Librem 5 represents years of work, building the software and hardware required to make this phone a reality.” - Todd Weaver, founder and CEO of #Purism #Librem5 #Librem5Aspen #Linux #LinuxPhone #LinuxMobile #GNOME #FOSS
It's strange that config files transitioned from key/value pairs into complex data structures at the same time that databases transitioned from complex data structures into key/value pairs. #devops
