10 days catching up with family & friends in the Okanagan. Luckily no fires! Weather was amazing! Saw a ton of people we haven’t seen since we left for Kyoto. But there are still more! We’ll be back soon. Just now got back to the coast, getting ready for school next week. Have a good weekend! 🥂

First day of the Armstrong Fair, the local annual carnival + agricultural sales event + cowboy cosplay convention

Me tryna figure out how to type, mouse, and scroll on my friend’s Svalboard ergonomic keyboard. It is mind-blowing! 🤯 (I can’t even type my own damn name 😅 but it’s amazing how little movement you need to control this once you got used to it)

Chad with hands on (in?) the left and right hand keyboard units. Each finger rests on a key, but there are switches up, down, left, and right of each fingertip that can be triggered by moving the finger.  The palms rest on large trackballs which replace a mouse and scroll wheel. Svalboard keyboard from above

I have a /uses page. Thinking of adding a “will not use” page 🤔: a list of software/services (eg. Facebook, Twitter, Uber, Substack etc etc etc) that I avoid, maybe with an explanatory link or two. I think RSL has a list like this. What do you think? Too long? 😅

“[Users can] access a map showing the city’s 900-plus camera network, pick the nearest camera to them, pose for the image, and capture a memory. A little button on the app captures the snap for you, and you can keep it in your phone like a photo booth strip, or as a polaroid-style photo.”

My city of just a half-million people has a network of 596 cameras. 🤯 Next hackathon I am building this.

Nice icon set on We Distribute with icons for many platforms and fediverse apps.

I hope @buttondown and other services adopt these soon!

Gorgeous day but only 24°C so I had to get a warm drink. (🙇‍♂️ Sorry FamiChiki crew back in Japan 🥵)
