Work
- Managed to distribute a lot, though this depleted much of our stock. Paid the printers.
- Trump's stupid tariffs are going to make it impossible to ship goods to the United States, as we have less than a 37% profit margin, which is the new tariff. Such as stupid and / or uncaring man. All countries should put reciprocol tariffs on US goods and services, and wait until he is forced to resign. Should be three months or so, then back to normal.
Tech
- Messing with Docker
- Messing with Go
- Messing with Mov.im which is interesting and fleshes out more functionality on top of XMPP. I agree with the use of the standards, though the details of how content is pushed and pulled, access control, and how to get this into a Discord-like interface / display (as that would allow Discord to be handily replaced).
- Still need to finish getting Miniflux going for RSS.
Health
- Had a horror return from my trip, which ended up in severe back pain for days, just now at the tail end of that, so to speak.
Travel
- There was some, it was a horror.
Reading
- Currently reading The Forever War, My quiet blacksmith life, v. 9-10, and finished Dungeon Crawler Carl v.7, and Disobey! by Frederic Gross.
