Friends have previously told me they could see me getting a job somewhere just to fix a bug or bad UX choices that bother me.
In absolutely unrelated news, does anyone know if the Microsoft Teams team is hiring?

Learned a new word today:
respair
From the 16th century. It means "fresh hope, and recovery from despair."
I wish you all a year filled with respair.
Please feel free to pass it on to others; this one needs to be spread around, I think.

Oh no! My 20-year-old minidisc-capable stereo (minidisc.wiki/equipment/sony/b…) looks like it might have given up.
There was an electrical storm yesterday, and one bolt of lightning did hit quite close to home, but no breakers or anything seemed to be tripped, and nothing else has malfunctioned.
But when I try to turn the stereo on, the backlight does not turn on, it flashes "STANDBY" and then turns off again.
Hopefully there's something I can do to save it...

It's that time of year where one reflects on the year that has passed and looks forward to the new one. A lot of people like to set a "theme" for the new year, which is something I've not done before.
But next year, I think I'd like to set a theme of #focus
Focus is something I constantly struggle with, and I really need to step up my game.
So how does one practice focus? What does that even mean? That is what I'm setting out to discover.

This is pretty cool. Might be something to do with my kids on their holidays.

I absolutely love the ability of #fedilab to be able to remote follow instances. I've set up my own single-user instance (#friendica) and being able to follow instances is awesome for my very blank timeline.
I have a question - more technical than a feature request - is it possible/feasible to post to another instance's shared inbox endpoint to show in their local public feed?

in reply to Gordon Pedersen • •However, I mostly interface to it via the #fedilab app (fedilab.app, @[email protected]), which saves my positions in feeds and, crucially, allows me to seamlessly follow external instances, such as the lovely people at pkm.social
I wish I could do this in #friendica itself, too.
