you may have read that Trump Gov has instructed its embassies across the world to send a letter to their providers giving them 5 days to certify they don't have any kind of DEI program in place or drop it if they want to keep being providers of the US embassy.

Now the fun part: Since last year, every company over 50 employees in Spain has to have a defined gender equity plan if they want to do business with the spanish public sector. Which I suspect is a MUCH bigger deal than keep being a provider for the US embassy.

Looking forward for the US embassy in Madrid running out of running water or electricity next week <3

@teleclimber @jds Wish I could be more helpful but

1. I don't do a ton of hiking and
2. I generally avoid CR

But here are few places my wife has been bugging me to go to but I can't vouch for their touristy levels:

  • La Cascaada Fortuna
  • Catarata Salto La Victoria

I could be a bit more helpful if you wanted to head north into Nicaragua. Some benefits are:

  • MUCH cheaper
  • MUCH MUCH less tourists
  • MUCH MUCH MUCH safer

Unfortunately CR is overrun with Americans, Canadians and Europeans. It's pretty hard to find non touristy attractions that are worth the hassle of getting to them.

Nicaragua will eventually fall into the same trap and we slowly are now. I, as an American, shouldn't complain about it but of course, I do :)

All the stuff I really like to hack on makes no money. So sadly I rarely get to hack on things I enjoy hacking on. Adulting isn't all it's cracked up to be kids.

After years of just routing our business line to a recording asking to send an email (too many spam calls during Covid) I finally got around to setting up my new IP phones and migrating to voip.ms. I gotta say, so far I really like the service.

I was paying like $30/mo before just to play a recording when someone called my line. Now I pay like $4.50/mo for a few lines, extensions, calls, etc. Of course it varies by time spent on the actual phone (not much) but it's cheap, fully featured, and works well (in my one whopping week of experience with it).

Not an ad (I'm no where near influential enough to even be considered for an ad haha) but just a happy user (so far).

Next therapy session I should probably bring up the fact that it's basically impossible for me to let a domain expire even though I know I'll probably never ever use it.

Crazy.

I never would have thought how important the #Fediverse would become as one of the last communication networks that are not controlled by governments, directly or indirectly

Especially in times like now when almost all other ones are kissing the ring

Billionaires who are in control of most of our daily communication should not be trusted, our most valued digital forms of connection should be in control of the people like you and me

Thank you for being part of this❤️

I was checking on a .work domain I wanted and it was taken. No big deal. Then a thought hit me as I channeled my inner Rhianna.

I was surprised to see the following domain is taken...

workworkworkworkwork.work

Kudos to you fine person who beat me to this gem.

Man Trump really went all in on "fuck everybody" right off the bat.

Good times ahead. /s

Finally back home in Nicaragua after 6ish weeks in Europe. Nothing, and I mean nothing, compares to your own bed. Also getting back to proper rice & beans is pretty nice. I love visiting Europe but am always happy to return to Latin America.

I'm going crazy with my ThinkPad P14 randomly waking from sleep with the lid closed. Running #Alpine #Linux 3.21.x but this didn't happen so much before. Now it's like I am randomly pulling out my laptop from my backpack to see if it's asleep or not. A lot of the time, it's not!

I know this is a common thing among Linux laptops but something changed in the last few months that's made it much worse.

@alpinelinux any ideas?

It's been a while since I've been to a fun tech conference so I'm considering attending SCALE x22 this March. Do I know anyone in the fediverse who will be attending?

#scale #linux #opensource

Happy New Year all.

Heading to Amsterdam tomorrow. Not sure I'm ready for that level of cold.
