In the mid-1980s, I moved to an area where television reception was almost impossible without cable. Since then (except for a period in the mid-1990s when I spent a lot of time at a friend's place), I have not been much of a TV-watcher. I also haven't been much of a movie-watcher since the 1980s, except for a few years during #sonOne's adolescence, when "weekly Wednesday movie" was a way to guarantee that we spent more time together.
Of course, there are some exceptions. I saw several big name kid movies with #sonTwo and his friends. For a couple of years, we watched Will Smith's then-latest blockbuster on July 4th. I also watched a few movies with my old best friend (now deceased) and his brother.
I spent too much time and energy on work and college / university studies, so I often wasn't really present, even when I was sitting in a theater.
So, for different reasons than @katiekats, I'm not at all familiar with most of the media that most of the people around me (either in the workplace or in the tech world) make reference to. -

I have finally reached the point of transitioning from indifference to "nerd culture" to actual hate. -

Hi, I'm @mmn, maintainer of GNUsocial. I reacted when it was written that "many people on gnusocial are angry" and wish to say that !GNUsocial has only love and appreciation for #Mastodon and #ActivityPub.
I believe cooperation is important for libre software and the federated social web. I believe our plural and diverse community should embrace and encourage contributors and development. Any progress we want to make - regardless of anyone's preferred technology - is impeded by hostility and empowered by friendship.
So I want to say thank @cwebber @gargron et al. for all the hard work you actively put into ActivityPub. It's awesome that so many users get in touch with !fs via open protocols. -

Super proud of my little girl.
Gave her ice cream last night. After eating about 2/3rds, she lost interest. I asked if she was all done. Of course she said no.
A few minutes later, with her still not finishing the ice cream, I explained that she didn't have to and that if she ate well the following day she could have ice cream again. It won't go away forever.
After several seconds she said, "I don't want more ice cream" and pushed the bowl towards me.
There's plenty of grown-ups that still need to learn this.

They are still setting up their DNS etc. - hopefully shortly gnusocial.no will be alive again. -

#Introductions
I don't really have a lot to say about myself, so maybe this should be tagged #untroductions instead. I work for $EMPLOYER, an unnamed government agency. I do not speak for them, and they do not speak for me. Nothing I say or write is endorsed by or an official statement of the agency.
I manage https://nu.federati.net/ and other Federati Networks sites. !fnetworks
I am also found at the following #fediverse accounts:

Stanislav Petrov, the man who single-handedly prevented an all out nuclear war by not trusting the technology before him, has died aged 77. https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/09/18/stanislav_petrov_obit/ -

@clacke @satchmoz As I argued at the time, the most uncivil interactions of most people's lives happen in junior high school / middle school. Their antagonists are known by name and face, and often their home locations and family members are also known. "Real names" do not make people civil, just as the Internet does not make them uncivil. Assholes tend to be assholes anywhere they feel they can do so without consequences, as you can see at your local McDonald's during lunch hour. -

In happier news, Morgan passed her prospectus defense for her PHD dissertation. Horray!
(Her committee was unable to meet for her defense for 9 months so the wait was fairly anxiety-inducing.ll)
