Does anyone else have an issue with Mastodon automatically refreshing their timeline on mobile whenever their device's screen is unlocked?
I'm using Moshidon on Android but I suspect it may be a Mastodon issue. It's a right pain in the arse and I want to stop it so I can continue reading my timeline where I left off, not where it thinks I should.

Can any of you fine folk recommended any Blender tutorials for a complete beginner?
I could pick at random but though someone might be able to point in the right direction.

I've been thinking about how, at least the western world, operates a year counting system based on a religion not everyone follows, and less so year by year.

So, if we were to ditch the Christ was allegedly born numbering system, what scientific, rational system would we implement instead? This basically boils down to what year would we start at.

Famously UNIX starts its dates at Jan 1st 1970, so that's a candidate.

Otherwise zero could simply be the start of the next calendar year after the decision, minus numbers for preceding years.

Or we could choose a significant historical or scientific event as year zero, say the discovery of the general theory of relativity.

What else would make a good zero year?

Question: Have there been any attempts to rigidly define the composition of a "Software Stack" (i.e. with less information content than the whole #SBOM)? Maybe with a machine-readable format? Even with a scanner??

i'm hoping to find a wheeled cart i can put my computer tower on with an upper surface i can put, for instance, a monitor on. i've included an example of what i am seeking, because i can find things that fit the bill, but i don't know what brands are any good.

does anyone have one they'd recommend?

i don't need built-in outlets, though i would not be opposed. i just want something well-built and sturdy that will suit my needs, which are:

• fits your average ATX tower
• has an upper surface above the tower
• has casters

Dear fedi, is there a "threader" type thing for fedi theads?

As in: give it a multi-post Fediverse thread, receive a single HTML page with it written out kinda sorta like an article?

Thanks!

I am rather clumsy, and frequently drip plant-based butter on my shirt. And despite washing the shirt in the washing machine (even repeatedly), the mark remains.

Any suggestions on removing this stain so I don't keep ruining shirts?

Anyone who has to deliver online training sessions knows how bad #teams is.

Whilst there are some questions about #zoom it's an order of magnitude better.

Today I was told about #Butter.

Has anyone used it? Especially for online training.

What do you like or dislike about it?

Should I give it a go?
