At some point in your childhood you and your friends went outside to play one last time, but you never knew it. /credit to @showerthoughts

Actually, I knew. We were immature and playing for longer than other kids but there was a feeling the last time. I can picture it now, running around in the dark giggling and as our Make Believe characters. It was harder to assume our roles that time. We promised to play again at the next sleepover but somehow, I knew. There was a crisp winter feeling of finality and I felt that we were leaving the world of pretend behind. The next time we hung out we did other things that were fun. Dance to Whitney Houston, read books, sneak into their mom’s room to try on all of her random hats, general pre-teen shenanigans.

I think we knew we were behind. At least I was aware of it. For a while we didn’t care but the horrors of puberty come for us all I suppose.

1857 in , , and the :

The Sepoy Mutiny was a major uprising against the rule of the British East India Company.

The Mexican Reform War was a result of the promulgation of the Constitution of 1857, fiercely opposed by Conservatives and the Catholic Church.

The Panic of 1857 was triggered and the Dred Scott v. Sandford decision was held by the Supreme Court.

It’s not remarkable that all these events occurred.

It’s remarkable they all occurred in the same year, with the as the fastest method of communication.

I’m find Paul Wesley strangely unlikable. He looks kinda weird. His movements are odd. Nothing is wrong with him, he just makes me uncomfortable. Would you please share what you like about him? I’d like to get over this weird feeling.

I've seen a fair amount of anecdotal theories that sensory sensitivities get worse with age; however I'm curious as to whether that may be caused by many older autistic people experiencing which also makes sensory stuff worse...

@AutieScot anecdotal but mine definitely get worse when I'm in burnout - they are incredibly bad right now.

From @LineageOS install instructions - success is normal, but errors are also fine:

> Normally, adb will report Total xfer: 1.00x, but in some cases, even if the process succeeds the output will stop at 47% and report adb: failed to read command: Success. In some cases it will report adb: failed to read command: No error or adb: failed to read command: Undefined error: 0 which is also fine.

@android

tubaruco ,

yeah its just you

or maybe i didnt understand it…

zak OP ,
@zak@social.goodanser.com avatar

@tubaruco It's from these installation instructions, which say "it might error, but that's fine". Usually error messages mean it's not fine, so I found it fairly amusing.

My first eReader was a Kobo, so it makes sense that my return to recreational reading starts with another Kobo.

Gotta say, the Clara 2E is really, really, really nice.

Guess I gotta start looking into... ? This the hashtag y'all are at?

@Judeet88 This thought might help you and me (https://lethallava.land/notes/9gp5hypoklkeflav; https://merveilles.town/@akkartik/105737744499263260) feel good about ourselves, but we still suffer some harm by being part of a society that grew dependent on Youtube. Might not seem fair, but there's a problem here and it impacts us.

As a new public librarian, I keep encountering books (Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh or T. Kingfisher's Minor Mage) that read like YA. They have YA characters, are written at a YA level, are targeted to YA audiences.

And yet they are not YA books. In an almost similar vein, I think I grasp that the Romance genre has clear definitions that require more than just romantic or spicy content, but the taxonomic complexities of YA literature elude me. Can someone point me to resources?

@nnschiller @bookstodon I honestly don’t know if YA is anything other than a marketing label nowadays. Aside: i loved Some Desperate Glory.

@selfhosted Have a commerical @wireguard vpn on my server. The problem i have is that if i use a docker, it does use the vpn interface with iptables, but if that goes down, the docker still goes through without the vpn interface. I have looked at iptables, but docker makes it own, and bit of a minefield. Any ideas? Thanks

Something like Proton or Mullvad?
