She’s out today, at least for now. I’m hiking up from Mount Hood Meadows towards Timberline Lodge. Hoping to complete a loop if I can manage a couple water crossings.

SeaGL's second keynote today, The River Has Roots: Lessons in Open Source, starts in 30 min, from Allison Randal

"Open Source is software, hardware, a community, a development methodology, a resource, a charity, a business, a philosophy, and more than the sum of its parts."

The loquats, taro, chestnuts, and roses are all blooming

the strawberries & raspberries are dropping fruit like they owe someone money

It's the 7th of November

if it stays above freezing for another month, the blueberries might actually squeak out a fall crop

Why do they call it dry humping when you still end up with semen all over your school uniform?

The @mozilla team has done a spectacular job for MozFest 2025. What a stunning setting to envision a technological future that empowers humans and is based on shared values. If you‘re also in Barcelona and would like to chat about Open Data and Open Source AI send me a DM, I‘m here until Monday! #mozfest #mozfest2025 #mozillafestival #mozilla #opensource #ai

In case you missed it buried in the replies, I've done a guide to using Mastodon's new quoting feature:

➡️ https://fedi.tips/why-cant-i-quote-other-posts-in-mastodon

The guide covers how to quote, how to consent to being quoted, how to go back to single-click boosts etc and answers lots more quoting-related questions.

Thanks to #seagl2025 I finally have a deck of playing cards in that random kitchen drawer!

On Tuesday, we helped score massive wins for our democracy — but we’re not done yet! There’s still one more election to win this year and it’s in Tennessee: Aftyn Behn, a state representative and former Indivisible group leader, is running in a special election to flip Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District.

Aftyn is running an incredible grassroots campaign focused on the rising cost of living, energizing disaffected voters, and highlighting how Trump and MAGA have failed the district.

There are finally real USB3 (not Thunderbolt, not USB4 PCIe Tunneling) 10GbE NICs!

RTL8159 chipset-based, it uses the generic cdc_ncm driver on Linux.
Also seems to work on macOS and iOS.

TCP throughput between GPD Pocket 4 and MacBook Pro M1 seems a bit low at ~6.2 GBit/s, but that might also be due to the connected devices (both sides are using the same adapter).
I don't have another 10GBit/s device here right now, sorry.

Don't have a USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 device, so I can't test the full speed!

Good Morning!
A magnificent day in Seattle. Clear sky and mountains are out.
And the seagulls are already at the UW.

Welcome to #seagl2025 2nd day.

@sajattack and I are trying to boot immutable #postmarketos on his Blackberry Key2 at our #seagl2025 table 🥳
