Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

Also, last night I updated lemmy to 0.18.5. There was only about 30 seconds of downtime.

They are hard at work on lemmy 0.19.0, this 0.18.5 release is a bug fix to resolve an issue with federating admin actions that were incorrectly being blocked by receiving servers. So you shouldn't notice any difference.

0.19.0 will have major breaking changes to the backend, with the idea of greatly improving paerformance. So expect new bugs and broken apps for that one.

It would be nice to let others go first, but it's possible apps will start updating and not work on the old version, so timing will probably be key for our upgrade.

Hey uhh - any possibility to have Alexandrite setup here?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

There's definitely a possibility! I'll see if I can take a look today.

And if I forget then feel free to remind me 🙂

Personally I'm lying in bed feeling sorry for myself. RAT test was negative but considering the two confirmed COVID cases in the house I't's probably that.

When I had it, the nasal swab kept returning negative but doing a throat swab was an immediate positive. Same situation, daughter was already a confirmed positive and I was feeling the sickest I'd felt for a long time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ah I might try that. I remember now there were people suggesting swabbing the swab on both nose and throat.

If you’re about to order coffee on-line today, Hummingbird have a draw to win a drip coffee maker, drawn from today’s orders (1st October), 2 coffee makers will be given away.

I can't see anything on their website. But there seems to be a chance to win money? Something about needing a unique code though.

I had an email. Here is a link

Ah sweet, thanks! I'm not sure I want a drip coffee machine though 😆. I kinda like how small my aeropress is. One day I'll have a mansion with coffee room but until then I like the benchspace.

Just went for a bush walk to enjoy the absolute stunner of a day Wellington has put on for us.

It was a great day today!
