so true. we also have a bird bath and on days where i get busy with work calls & forget to top it off, i’m gutted to see the birdies standing around looking for a drink only to be disappointed.

gotta fixture out goes to automate topping it off without flooding the rest of the yard

i had this question a couple of days ago and today fell totally down the fuck spez rabbithole.

found myself on the main discord where the coordinators were talking to uruguay about doing the “u” after columbia (?) declined. guess hearing that, both uruguay and equador wanted in.

there was discussion of not stepping over the swiss flag in one of the letter because they were part of the coalition.

these folks are dedicated - many commented they hadn’t really slept since it went live. kudos to all of them for the passion they showed today.

tbh it was impressive and one of the best executed operations i’ve seen in a long time. very fun to see up close.

working for a global multinational company i only wish we were this efficient internally ❤️

good god i remember that comment!

really nice! may i please ask what printer you’re using and whether you’d recommend it?

shower thoughts… and still on my first cup of coffee to more just musing than anything …

if storage is the concern wonder if the lemmy roadmap might one day include an option to use cloud based storage?

azure storage at .06/gb per month is likely cheaper and more redundant than local storage - even if you factor in calls to the blob which could be lowered via caching.

cloud storage potentially might one day lead to a option for smaller self hosters to opt into a shared blob instance where the and cost is shared.

in this scenario security to ensure the cloud blob couldn’t be deleted would need to be thought through (maybe splitting the password among multiple admins with each having one part of the whole?) but might be one way to better encourage more self hosting for them compute side of things.

agree about the differences between here and the alien. there’s civility and discourse here - a good amount of fun - a sense of newness yet familiar. ive engaged more here than i have in 4 years on reddit - thanks all to a great community and gracious hosts running these servers ❤️
