(Dark'n'Edgy, 2 May 2020)

@kissiel I'm aware. It works though. I wouldn't have shared it if it was anything malicious.

in reply to Bytes Europe

It was clearly a very bad, dangerousadvice from Germany's foreign department to send trans people to the US embassy.


I love the Fediverse as a social network because I rarely feel bad when reading it. Even the sad things in the world feel a bit lighter here, thanks to the generally kinder people and shared values.

Got the focus lens actuator (bu64748) of Poco F1 rear main camera (imx363) working in mainline linux! 🙂 Yet to be released. Thanks to @NekoCWD's camerctrl (gitlab.com/NekoCWD/cameractrl), we got a nice overlay to manually adjust the focus!

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE REALLY RICH?

You have a vegetable garden.

You enjoy gardening, cooking and doing laundry.

You or a neighbor have chickens, fruit trees and a milking goat or a milking cow.

Every day, you buy an espresso or a cup of coffee and/or a muffin.

Most of your teeth are intact.

You have reliable income, health insurance and a pension.

That's reasonable. Only, it surprised me and needed some thought as to why.

A food garden and farm animals as signs of wealth suggest someone can take care of them. Being able to enjoy tending to them and other chores suggests the work isn't agonizing or impossible to complete.

She has an able body and healthcare (which is not the same as health "insurance").

I am relatively well off but I think back to a hundred years ago and I am incredibly wealthy compared to that....
