@ErikJonker@mastodon.socialAfter some tinkering I made my Heltec Wifi LoRa 32 V4 work, even without an extra/better antenna. Somehow it doesn't want to connect to the webclient with Bluetooth but the Android app works fine. It is also nice that this kit has a small screen of it's own.
Amazingly busy here around Bergschenhoek, Netherlands.

@andycarolan@social.lolOccasionally, I log into LinkedIn purely to check messages. Sometimes, I find a promoted message or an ad, maybe a connection request. Usually, nothing. Content often feel fake, and it's often difficult to find content that I'm interested in there. Is it even a site for businesses to connect, and people find work any more?
Back when it wasn't owned by Meta, I used to enjoy Instagram. Now it feels like a shop. I still miss scrolling through the feed, discovering content from the people that I followed. Sadly, a lot of creators that I liked are still on there, and nowhere else.
Mastodon is pretty much my only online home now, and I'm very thankful for it!

@smashtie@mas.toI went to see the new Gilbert and George exhibition today, at the Heywood. It was a bit underwhelming, in an overwhelmingly huge way. They've not changed, and the techniques to do what they do have grown ever easier.
When I was young, they were controversial and provocative. Now I don't strongly connect with the work. They've not changed, but clearly I have. Or maybe the world has.
