The welcome for illumos Cafe has been wonderful.

The Mastodon instance already has 14 members, and new requests are coming in by the hour. In the 12 hours since the launch, I can only say that it's a very positive result - more than my wildest expectations.

Thank you, friends! Let's continue on this adventure, together!

I need some help with identifying wood colors. Fediverse pls do your thing!

The image depicts a kitchen with a predominantly wooden cabinetry design. The cabinets are a rich brown color, with a smooth finish and silver handles. The kitchen features a granite countertop with a speckled pattern in shades of brown, beige, and gray. A white dishwasher is installed under the countertop, and a black sink with a single faucet is positioned next to it. Above the sink, there is a range hood with a light fixture. The backsplash is a light color, complementing the white walls. A black microwave is mounted above the stove, which is black and has a towel hanging on its handle. A red mat is placed on the gray tiled floor. A ceiling fan with a light fixture is visible at the top of the image. The kitchen appears to be well-lit, with additional lighting under the cabinets.

The image depicts an interior space with a wooden bookshelf as the central feature. The bookshelf is dark brown and has multiple shelves, some of which are open and display various decorative items, including a clock, small figurines, and framed photographs. Below the shelves, there are closed cabinets with handles. The room has a light-colored carpet with a subtle geometric pattern, and a colorful crocheted blanket is draped over a piece of furniture on the right side. To the left, there is a window with a view of greenery outside, and a large potted fern is placed near the window. The walls are painted in a warm beige tone, and there is a wooden door visible in the background. The overall atmosphere of the room is cozy and inviting, with a mix of natural and decorative elements.

It is important to be thankful. This is not an image in and en upon itself.
This photograph was composed from a sample a food that was given to me, because I'm in dire need of assistance, to get projects within my IT Technology fields of expertise.

Due to the horrific situation in my country, the enormous amount of inflation, combined with very questionable political figures ruining the whole economic system and landscape for decades, Many businesses have collapsed, including those that I've given Open Source service and support to for decades.

So when one of those businesses, which luckily does not reside in my country but is remote, has a top level manager who is also friend, decides to jump in and help no questions asked, it is only fair to be thankful.

That energy of gratitude shall be reflected through the Universe to that Friend and everyone else who reads this toot.

On today's #InternationalDayOfFriendship, we want to take a moment to thank the people who have helped and supported us over the past two years.

With your help, we have been able to help grow the Open Social Web. We've raised awareness for alternative social platforms across the UK. We've built and developed tools to encourage community building. We've stuck to our mission of knowledge sharing.

It hasn't always been easy. Thank you for keeping us going 🧡

"After all, you don't need a thousand-node cloud to write something worth reading."

This phrase appears in the "under the hood" section of my blog.
Just now I was reading a post by an "influencer" on a well-known social media platform. The post was biased, lacking in content, useless. Digital waste. A waste of bits and energy. Shortly after, I read a fantastic post written by a user of a #snac instance, and I know it's running on a Raspberry Pi, at their home.
And that phrase immediately came to mind.

Goodnight, world.

#Reflection

And I love #snac because, among many great things, it supports Markdown. I can't thank you enough, @grunfink@comam.es

Evening Reflection: In just a few days, it will be BSD Cafe's second birthday. Two years ago, I never anticipated what would follow. What was once a dream - this kind of community - has transformed into a reality. I set the table, but the Cafe isn't just me; it's all of you.
It's the Fediverse, it's Matrix, it's a group of people who want to communicate, who want positivity, who want to grow, who have a passion and an interest. This morning, I announced the Journal, and the enthusiasm shown was comparable. And that, for me, was a gift.

Even though it's not yet Tuesday here, it already is in many places. While I might sound repetitive, I feel compelled to dedicate this #ThankYouTuesday to you all: friends of BSD Cafe (both in and outside the cafe), of the Fediverse, of Matrix, of every communication channel.
Because FREE communication channels are tools, and they are merely extensions of people.

Wonderful people, who make the world a little less bleak.

Thank you.

@UlrikeHahn That‘s the US cultural revolution moment. 60 years ago Mao started the prosecution and extermination of intellectuals in China, resulting in a lost generation in Chinese science.
In the US it’s only a question of time until they start killing birds because they eat grain. People will die because medicine will go back to 60ies standards. Whole industries will collapse from the brain drain. And Europe will profit from US stupidity. #ThankYou#WellDone#Trump#Maga #USA
