My mobile org-roam app is more or less feature complete, I'm pretty happy about that. Mobile journal, flashcards, and habit tracking, all syncing to plain text org-mode docs and compatible with the broader ecosystem.

A document view of the README for the repo

The Quiz session completed page showing my lifetime org-fc review stats

My habit tracker showing various things I need to remember to do every so often, colored by how regularly I remember to remember, complete with streak counter

Iran-backed insurgents taking out Ubuntu services while simultaneously holding the world's oil hostage and causing the collapse of OPEC? time to fire up Mark Shuttleworth's patented hand-cranked XML parser arstechnica.com/security/202...

everybody loves eric raymond, paperdoll comic with pudgy Eric Raymond and Mark Shuttleworth

panel one:
ESR: > so explain canonical's business model to me again
MS: > ok. i use my basically limitless bank account to fund ubuntu

panel 2:
MS:> as users flock to us, all the commercial linux distros go out of business and die.
MS:> during that time, as all the free distros were using our proprietary launchpad.net service, we have their metadata locked up behind a SOAP interface and our success is guaranteed.

panel 3:
ESR: > wow! a free software monopoly: the invisible hand of the market is jerking me off here. what next?
MS: > well, by that point i expect the world will have run out of cheap oil and we can go to the profit making phase...

panel 4, a charicature of an OLPC XO-1 with the crank power charger
MS:> My patented hand cranked XML Parser! I'll be reach! (again)
ESR:> can i work your crank, mark?
MS: > no, eric. no

still wandering through lumber farms. ther's a few unmarked conservation areas and research areas up here but those roads leading to them are already washing out. no snow or ice since early december but the creeks are bursting.

a tree lined gravel road; it's almost all fir, the stands nearest me are all like five years old planted from identical saplings in ordered fshion. there is a treeline a half mile away in the background with much taller older darker fir. a single dead anchor tree is also visible

an ivy-swallowed fir surrounded by a more naturally thinned mature growth stand

they dont even want to touch the parts i actually want declared by the container lmao (aside: it's ridic that we are using a platform with these unhelpful char limits in yold 2025 i hate this website)

since bsky is too poor to store this text in the body here is a screenshot of my sxeet quoting bootc docs:

Per system state and data are set up in /etc and /var per system, and are usually not affected by updates to the bootable container image. This includes things like passwords, SSH keys, home directories. These things can arrive on the system in the typical way, such as local configuration, cloud-init, or via management tools like Ansible.

@white2tea.bsky.social bröthēr how do I brew this moon waffle properly? Every time I try I create a Minecraft tea cube that is still dry in the center when I fish it out and peel it apart with my pick

They made the tea cube from mine craft real??? It's broken off of a waffle pressed cake made by white2tea, sitting on strainer of my gongfu2go

The brewed tea looks nice and smells great but I can't help but feel like I'm leaving something on the table here.... Background is a sparse fir logging forest and meadow
