@silwol @CCTG yeah i didn’t wear my mask much even though I brought it, wish I had though. Didn’t get infected but just want to renormalise wearing them

@sil @scrwd an emeritus prof I work with does genealogy as a hobby but also used it in teaching CS because it’s a good example of something where every seemingly clear rule has many exceptions in practice

My “The Horror Show!” Exhibit book fits well on this shelf

The closing episode of “Severance” was great

@srtcd424 @kylegordon @pwaring there's uknot-request@... but it's likely broken too I think. mailman interface is on chilli.nosignal.org , suggests Andy Davidson?

@srtcd424 @kylegordon @pwaring I can't either, sorry

@srtcd424 @pwaring @kylegordon last mail I saw was from Monday. It has been quiet of late though

@edward thanks: I’m sorry to hear that

@zhenech sure I guess that counts. I'd like to try and gauge how much transmission might have occurred. There was *so much* written about it would be a super-spreader event before/during, and I haven't seen much to confirm that after.

@neil @revk I’d totally second pandoc a first pass at least. AsciiDoc is worth considering as a format: some areas improved on markdown (sadly some steps backwards too)

@Migueldeicaza voice calls probably fine. Video calls, a bit weird.

Anyone heard of folks who attended #FOSDEM contracting Covid afterwards?

Organic supports look weeeeird #3dprinting

Designed and 3d printed a stand for my flat qi charger so I can do face recognition/use the phone on the stand #3dprinting

@wbm312 interesting. More of problem for some sockst types than others!

@mart_brooks that is bizarre
