I'm Sarah. I'm a Brit who fled to Portugal on account of Brexit, increasing intolerance and the British weather. I like climbing (although I can't do much any more for health reasons) and sailing. This is a Friendica account. Friendica is kinda like Facebook as Mastodon is kinda like Twitter, except they can talk to each other.

Last Notes npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1wax…x0yw this will still be used to attack us though 😞 npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown UK media: wow, British politicians have got really transphobic! npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Anyone else using Mac minis as VM hosts for self hosting? My Friendica server is a Linux VM on a Mac Mini in my living room. The VM is bound to a VLAN tagged network interface so it’s completely firewalled off from the rest of my network. Also got a second Linux VM on the same box for hosting local stuff on my main VLAN (HomeBridge/etc). npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown So it seems there are still, despite increasing numbers of “leaders” involved in “crypto” ending up in prison for being con artists, true believers in NFTs (if you’ve forgotten about those, they were briefly bigger than COVID 19 and about as beneficial to humanity) held a party in Hong Kong last night. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1agu…j0sk performers are like, “oh, a British person! You must have stuff like this all the time, right?” npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1agu…j0sk got invited to one by friends when visiting the us once. Had never heard of the phenomenon before but I enjoyed it even if I was going “WTF?!?” internally the whole time. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub10lw…e0q8 @npub18mr…r5yh Strong conversion therapy vibes. Looks awfully similar to the stuff trans people are expected to submit to in order to be one of the “good ones”. Same shit, different minority. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Apropos of the scary shit that’s going on for trans people around the world right now, the concept of “birth certificate laundering” seems to be becoming a thing. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Techbros: self driving cars are inevitable! npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Going through moons of the solar system, and I get the naming scheme, but it's still funny that Uranus has a moon called Margaret. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Discussing the British Press, and I'm reminded of the time when I had a moderate amount of celebrity in the UK LGBT community, and the press tried to do a hit piece on me. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Very little help npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1agu…j0sk Related: this is fascinating. www.otherhand.org/home-page/se… npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1yac…la7e @npub163w…lq6z @npub1lll…5409 No, it doesn't. The one I linked (which is the one I own) is a single unit. It replaces your hot water cylinder. That is literally all there is. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1yac…la7e @npub163w…lq6z @npub1lll…5409 Not true. You can now get integrated heat pump hot water cylinders. I have one. All they need is two holes to the outside. See: www.dimplex.co.uk/product/200l… npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown This is a 50p that was minted to celebrate the UK joining what became the EU. It was minted in my birth year, and my mum gave it to me shortly before she died of cancer in 2021. It is one of my most treasured possessions. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1cuu…f9wj I’m already on the Eugen-free part of the fediverse. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Zuck is a POS, but he’s pulled a blinder. His ridiculous metaverse fell through, but literally just cloning Twitter and feasting on its carcass. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1pqw…ygpj It’s the “James Bond vs stereotypical black people” one. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1pqw…ygpj Sadly I can’t hear that music without thinking of my estranged and very racist father. His favourite film when we were kids was “Live and Let Die”, which he would put on every time we went to his house and provide commentary which, if I repeated here, would get me pretty much instantly defederated by pretty much everyone. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1hy5…al5d Same npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown The Twitter TERFs are having a meltdown. I have no inside info, but if it’s what I think it is, something excellent is about to happen. Get the popcorn ready. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1tx0…8xxx I’m so sorry npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1tx0…8xxx at least you were saved from having to listen to Ed Sheeran 😉 npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1y54…xyu3 Why would you have Wi-Fi to the house? That’s something it’s particularly unsuited for! npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Just seen someone complaining that their wifi is only giving them 650 megabits. What a time to be alive! npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1g3y…7tvk I feel very seen too. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Right, let’s do this. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown The world is going to burn from climate change while Nazis run amok trashing what's left of our dying civilisation not because there's nothing we can do to stop it, but because the people who are in a position to be able to stop either are all too fucking thick to do so. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1rpd…4k53 They’re walking examples of how being stupid is like being dead: while upsetting to everyone around them, the very stupid and the dead remain unaware of their own predicament. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Watched the first three eps of ATV+ Hijack thing, constantly yelling, “WHY ISN’T HE SQUARKING 7500?!?” at the screen. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1xpy…k5zl Consider our classic nightmares: running from something that's relentless, you can't get away, and it will always find you. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown All hail the arrival of Threads, perhaps the most unfortunately named and most pre-blocked social media platform ever, at least until Elon decides to launch a fediverse platform and name it “Syphilis” or something npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown @npub1zkm…hcgp A problem I’m noticing with my instance is, especially with the Twitter migration picking up, the deferred queue is just growing and growing as people experiment then abandon accounts or even entire servers. npub1h4yzhwn9uhstsl790yxl0q4rqjh9d7dckscxjvc8vphu55uur7fsq44srl Sarah Brown Dear Twitter people. Lots of us were once Twitter people too. This place will not spoon-feed you. Passive participation doesn’t work here. This is a very active and buzzing place, but unless you FOLLOW people and INTERACT, it will pass you by.
