@lproven @theregister as much as I love the #freedom and #autonomy of #linux it's definitely a #purest #technically #adept approach to self #digitization
The majority of people I've worked with want nothing to do with knowing how anything works. They just want their computer to auto-load all their bents like #magic , be able to access anything on the #Network without getting permission and install any #app on their #device they choose.
#Government , #libraries especially, need to untether from #broZone #architecture and do things for themselves again.
I'm not a #statistician and only have #anecdotal #evidence to go by, but I don't see a whole lotta folks doing, or even wanting, to do things themselves. Let alone, pick up the #skills required to do so.
The worst part, the people actually willing and able to help, can't afford to, because it doesn't #pay well, enough.
So, we all have to figure out a way to fix "that" first. But, that would require everyone believing doing #work themselves is better for them and the #Earth in the long run rather than #automating each and every #human #interaction out of #existence
#MuzakLessons #Automation Don't lose your #touch make them #visible and #purposeful each time; every #time
Jfc I got a lot of mileage out of one goddamn screenshot but hey!
My b/Blind and vision-impaired or sight-loss fellows shall feast tonight!
… If any of you care about niche multi-layered terminology for humorous agenerational interconnective co-created commentary on base genuine media, surprises, commentary, and intersections of such!
You goddamn linguistic nerds!!
Ooh, I feel like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrHGbCyAqOU is structurally related.
OMG. THAT’S HOW ADHD BRAINS CONNECT IDEAS.

AuHD or AudHD (urgh, I hate that initialism) people connect ideas by their structural relevance (and personal ascription of importance).
And, apparently, Neurotypical, neuro default, or neuro expected people connect ideas by narrative relevance! And, frankly, also how much importance they ascribe to the narrative, topic, or relevance.
Omg I’m an edu blogger?! This is like finding out that non-binary gender was an option! Holy shit.

Good afternoon from #Pasadena. Rough day. Started with an #Afib episode at 3am & went on for over 5 hours. Trouble breathing. If this ever happens to you, don't rule out heart issues and side with #PanicAttack. I went on 15 years with Afib due to this kind of thinking supported by awful doctors.
Very unusual to have afib again as I had an ablation years ago and it generally only triggers after major sugery, but I think it was triggered by a combination of lack of sleep and stress from very abusive staff people at my new dermatologist (over the phone,; I have not yet been there) which sent my heart racing briefly (see chart). I'm using #MakeVisible aka #Visible heart monitoring and pace-setting atm and it's been so #HELPFUL!!!
Considered canceling, but must go. So this will be when I start taking #MosesTheServiceDog to med appts to avoid meltdown if abusive in person as well. So he's getting a good brush and grooming & we're going together, as a team.
Amazing how abusive some doctors' offices are. Hadn't had such an experience since visting a bad neurologist who started w a big sigh, looked at my chart for first time, zeroed in on Rx list & said it was no wonder I felt tired, that I was a walking chemistry experiment…
Hoping your day is going better than mine though mine has improved tremendously!!

[The prowess of #Euclid] Our #sky is dotted with points of light, which it identifies as wandering #planets, clusters of #stars, #galaxies - some of them far away, whose distribution tells us about the structure and evolution of the #Universe.
To do this, it operates from space in the #visible and #infrared domains, using two instruments (NISP and VISP) offering him a vision that is both detailed and wide-ranging.
Magnificent images of the surrounding sky follow: https://www.irap.omp.eu/en/2024/05/euclid-first-scientific-results-and-sparkling-new-images/

Pour ce faire, il opère depuis l'espace dans les domaines #visible et #infrarouge, au moyen de deux instruments lui offrant une vision à la fois détaillée et étendue.

I use the Visible app to track my ME/CFS symptoms. When I was on holiday, I was very relaxed & even though I did some kind of activity each day (using mobility aids etc), my daily Pace Points (like spoons) stayed under my set daily target.
Since returning from holiday, there has been some awful stress stuff going on, & even though I'm physically doing less, I'm going way over my daily pace points. The app is literally tracking the physical impact of mental health on my body.

Do any of the #LongCovid folks here use the #Visible app? What do you reckon to it it?
I'm letting my current #Visible plan (of $25 a month) expire so I can transition to the new $20 a month plan for 24 months. That's an additional $120 in savings over 2 years.

The same $10/mo upgrade that #Visible tried to pass off as a Black Friday deal, and then just a regular offer months prior. They spam you with it, too. SMS, email...
Disappointingly deceptive behavior for an otherwise decent telco...
Thanks for tagging me @adminkirsty
Hi @jilleduffy
One topic that's of interest to me is the new Visible tracker app (and device?) for folks with chronic illness, specifically ME/CFS and Long Covid, but also other illnesses.
I'm not using it myself but I've seen a couple folks post about it on Mastodon - check #Visible & #MakeVisible
