@joshmillard People throwing around signup numbers of Threads vs. Bluesky vs. Mastodon as if it was a competition. But Mastodon doesn't need to grow or gain market share. It's not like Mastodon has revenue goals to report to a board of investors.
Welcome to Mastodon, where the rules are made up and the points don't matter.
Oh, and everybody is heating with #heatpumps. Yes, at the polar circle, not kidding.
Meanwhile, in Denmark, the city of #Esbjerg replaced a full-scale coal power plant with a huge heat pump power plant. Like the coal one, the heat pump is providing heat for the city. Remote heat (Fernwärme). But now the wind mills offshore heat the houses of Esbjerg. All while our stupid politicians tell us that will never work. I'm so bored of these technology-haters. CDU/CSU and FDP, please come to reason!
I'd say #Microsoft just winning the #BigBrotherAwards #BBA23 for their lifetime achievements warrants a cheeky bump/boost of the track above... ⬆️
Congratulations ! 🥳
(Plus I actually really enjoy listening to it, which is rare with my own stuff)
Blessed with a full moon tonight as Henry (pictured) punted the season’s first bat safari to Grantchester. Setting off just before dusk with hand held bat detectors we drifted down the river as Iain Webb from The Wildlife Trust for Beds, Cambs & Northants interpreted the clicks and squeaks of the bats flying all around us.

The team has been hard at work. So proud to share the latest iteration of Project Starline with the world today.
A blast from the past ... Stumbled over the old "Polaris - Chivalric Tragedy at Utmost North" #roleplaying system.
I got a case of Nostalgia now ... iirc #Polaris was my first "not-mainstream" #rpg after #dasschwarzeauge (#dsa) and #shadowrun
Iirc Polaris plays without any dice, without a GM even. Instead it is structured around key phrases and "bartering".
A: My knight easily slays the hordes of demons.
B: Yes, but only if you partner lies on their dying bed when you return to the keep.
dear #mastodon,
which timeline/feature do you tend to spend the most time on?
p.s. please consider boosting for a more meaningful sample size.
:hmmm:

I just augmented my cheap chinese TRVs with "Better Thermostat" [1] and so far can really recommend it.
Better Thermostat makes it really simple to control a TRV from an external temperature sensor (on my ceiling) and temporarily turn of the TRV when an external window sensor is triggered.
5/5 will use again

#homeassistant Bin ich eigentlich doof oder sollte der Satz eigentlich funktionieren? Oder sind die Regeln noch nicht in HA 2023.2.5 bei mir angekommen?
