But a lot of people think I’m nuts for going to vinyl. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 Happy Winter Solstice to all. After tonight we begin our journey back to brighter days. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…vyyg I'm in the US so I'm sure you don't want to deal with that shopping headache. But how well does Graphene run on a 6a for you? I was thinking about getting a 6a or 7a before committing to it with my Fold. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…dfpj Well this is awesome.

It is pretty magical. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…sr9k Yeap! Days like those I pickup a tinker project and operate on standby mode to address any support issues that surface. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…843t Sounds like your Seven Devils experience is going better than mine did. ;) npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…843t Ah, further north.

I'm interested in the Fairphone as well but I also really like fancy phones. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…843t The PNW is pretty gorgeous. :) npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…843t Don't get down too much. But I feel you... I have some GI issue that is slowing me down in general. Best part is seeing a GI doc is multi-month journey. 🙄 npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…gmnz Is the perfect client for the openweb!

Odd that second message is dated 6/4/25. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…kyy4 Time to burn the house and move. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…843t Is this the hobbled together trail that follows the coastline? Are you starting from Astoria or down by the California border? npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…8f02 @nprofile…892t When I do replace my Dragonfly I will likely get a Framework laptop. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…8f02 @nprofile…892t I just paved my Chromebook with Fedora. The HP Dragonfly Elite is too good of a laptop to let go. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…kyy4 @nprofile…zey0 Inwas hoping no Democrat would attend. I saw some of the instructions from the Jefferies and they where a joke. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…zey0 @nprofile…kyy4 Wait, some with actual plan that is listening to his constituents. Be still my heart. It is a wonderful contrast from the barrage of dystopian lies that gushed forth from the cheeto. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…kyy4 @nprofile…z8kp Concerning still... Even if we have an election and even if a Democrat wins. Elon Musk will have fully taken over the computer systems running the federal government. Can we even get him out at this point? npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…8f02 For me it is at least not Amazon which is enough for me to shift my book spending. Though I hesitate because I don't want to get locked into a platform. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…8f02 @nprofile…tne6 I suspect DRM is a requirement or book publishers and not the platform itself. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…d2rl @nprofile…kjz2 I appreciate the candor in the interview and the advice you give. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…kyy4 Have you tried phanpy.social? It isn't perfect but I find it better than the Mastodon web experience. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…kyy4 Frolick.

I love you see I love to drive out there and park by the University of Portland and walk at lunch. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 In the process of shuffling my primary OS I went ahead and re-installed @nprofile…x9jw and made it my primary browser again as well. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…sr9k from one weather feel to another this is amazing! Is there anything I can do to help get this working for US weather? npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…zwgs I'm alive and breathing so we'll call that a win. But here's hoping the remaind of the holidays brighten and a laptop miracle happens? . npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…d2rl And the fact that the GOP will make it more difficult to gain accessible education. So they will actively try to take away education opportunities. Because an educated electorate is less likely to tolerate their lunacy. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…3y53 AI at its core is unsustainable. There is a limited corpus to train on. It takes massive amounts of compute which in turn takes massive amounts of money, energy, and water is on sustain. All for a product most people have little to no interest in paying for. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…49cc The ultimate grift. Stealing the White House on baseless lies and undeliverable promises. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 Ugh. I upgraded my wife’s Pixel 6a to a Pixel 9. Which is all fun and games until she goes to use Instagram. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…kyy4 I do move Laurelhurst. It would take multiple lifetimes for me to afford Laurelhurst. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…d2rl Unless you want to take a few months off to refinish a bunch of shed or antique furniture. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @nprofile…klvg A cold reality for people that voted for Trump because they thought our economy was bad. Trump is going to drive our economy into the ground. 'Make America Great' is more 'Make Billionaires Richer'. npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @npub1wwc…88qz What the actual hell? npub1s6rszu73yd5a9f3atc7jdtpd9a9wz0m42p7jmmj4vvdakjr66yds633a0v Ryan Lounsbury 🇺🇸🌲🥾 @npub13uu…pvgs I mean… humanity could stand a few decades of lower birth rates as to not continue our viral spread and over consumption of the planets resources.
