Five good things instead of three today:
1. Passed mid term project review with flying colours, technical officer proclaimed himself "impressed" (phew).
2. Visited super cool facility at DTU and learned a lot about measuring sunlight. Hopefully the start of some interesting new collaborations
3. Took my 2 wonderful teens out for vegan hotpot dinner in Vesterbro to celebrate end of their exams.
4. Lay out in garden listening to the blackbirds and identified 5 separate bee species within 10 mins
5. Tea and TV on the sofa with aforementioned teens just relaxing.
Perfect day really.

6 Things I’ve Learned From Watching More Than 100 Sci Fi Films - Reactor
From campy cult classics to high art, every movie can teach us something about passion, artistry, and storytelling

I went to the English Market in Cork City, therein to the cheesemonger where I learned the word "hectogram," and sagely ordered a /hectogram/ of the Fourme d'Ambert. This was met by a "sorry, a what?" from the lass behind the counter.
It's over for us.

Want the world to change? That's easy from the couch.
But do you actually enjoy the changing part when it shows up in your own life?

What if the falling apart is the doorway?

the hardest and best lesson I've ever learned about embracing my inner chaos monster

It's a day later and #footiMac and #newOldiMac are still up and running. Disk usage is stable. Current RAM usage for the database has gone up to 3GB from 1GB since 9PM last night. I'd like to know why. It's not any busier.
I'm running the backup script then later today I'll see if I can investigate more on why the RAM usage fluctuates so much.
I would like to know why it is more stable. Is it because I've simply given it enough room to expand and contract in the colima VM?
Is it because I set the clocks to the same timezone?
Inquiring minds... but I am happy that it is happy. And I have learned a lot and gotten more comfortable with docker. Which has been a goal almost since I joined Mastodon in Nov 2022.
I’m hoping to look for a new macMini now to replace #newOldiMac. If I can get that an SSD to replace the failing SSD in #footiMac and a large HDD for backup that'd be great.
