@brennen https://en.brickimedia.org/wiki/W341_Classic_Creator_Watch is what I wore through elementary and middle school until it broke

@nemobis probably. No other issues so far...and tbh I'd have no idea how to switch back anyways!

Figured it out. Google thinks I have 5 microphones now and it initially selected the wrong one.

My microphone isn't working on Google Meet / #Firefox post #Fedora 34 upgrade.

Second snake we saw during the hike, the first one was tiny and slithered off before I could grab a photo.

And that's why you stay on the trail...

Las Trampas Regional Park in San Ramon, CA.

Hiked the Elderberry Trail (~4 mi) and my legs are now jelly.

First responders removed a woman from a car that flipped at 19th and Harrison in Oakland, CA. A witness, who declined to be interviewed, told police that a blue truck ran the red light, hitting the car in the side, causing it to flip. The driver of the blue truck stayed at the scene.

At Lake Merritt

@nemobis GNOME has those options too, but not Cinnamon.

Took about 30 minutes overall to download F34, upgrade and reboot!

@nemobis I use Cinnamon as my desktop environment so I'm still on X11 for better or worse :/ I'm going to try out GNOME 40 next week though.

#Fedora34 upgrade time!

@Greg only 85 here, but it's too good to pass up, I dragged my laptop outside to work.

The "soon" in "#Wikimedia will upgrade to #Mailman3 soon" has finally arrived!

We'll start migrating lists in a few days, some more details at: https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2021-April/094459.html (hopefully one of the last pipermail links I share)

Shoutout to @ladsgroup for instigating this and really driving it forward!

Fellow @`Wikimedia
staff, I think we should form a union. And I think that union should represent both “staff” and “contractors” in whatever place they live. And that we should do this before we are gifted a new CEO/ED by the Board of Trustees. How do we do this?
