Excerpt from a poem called Sharing Silence by Gunilla Norris:

“Silence brings us back to basics, to our senses, to our selves. It locates us. Without that return we can go so far away from our true natures that we end up, quite literally, beside ourselves.

We live blindly and act thoughtlessly. We endanger the delicate balance which sustains our lives, our communities, and our planet.“

How's this for a computer peripheral aesthetic?

This is the first stage of a mod for the Ploopy trackball to use ball transfer units (BTUs) as bearings for the ball.

This just about fits in the shell and feels good, so the next step is to try to modify the CAD file for the original shell.

@gritnot Oh that sucks, I tried it on Ubuntu 20 and it seems to work ok.

@krock
Not a bad idea. It would be great if this could be automated because your time is precious and spending it on these platforms is just not worth it in my opinion.

Last for today, but not least: The #ActivityPub logo. Again wrong colors, as I didn't have the right ones available.

#Fediverse #embroidery #Sticken #Stickerei

I'm enjoying seeing these embroidered logos of the fediverse come by. Thanks for sharing :)
