Dear lazyweb,
I remember that some time ago somebody mentioned a good (well maintained with modern extensions) #xmpp server that offered accounts for a small price (as opposed to free) and wasn't conversations.im, but I can't find which one it was.
I'm writing suggestions for new users, and I'd like to provide more than just one alternative.

Thanks to the sewing machine, advances in the quality of machine lace etc. shirtwaists in the most delicate & dainty materials can now be had for pretty cheap, but before buying them the prudent office girl should ask herself: can I afford their laundry costs?
(says the one who has just ironed and starched a few shirts, and even cheated a lot (steam iron, spray starchโฆ), but it's HOT)

Penguins on a Plane
questa รจ vecchia, recuperata grazie alla wayback machine. L'originale รจ del 2007. Purtroppo mancano le immagini di contorno
Trama:
Un'agente dell'FBI porta a bordo di un aereo dei pinguini, senza sapere che il personaggio seduto a fianco a lui รจ un dirigente microsoft.
Quando, per una turbolenza, i pinguini scappano dalla stiva facendo irruzione tra i passeggeri, il dirigente entra in panico e dirotta l'aereo, minacciando i piloti e le hostess con una copia di windows vista premium, urlando "developers! developers! developers!"
Sarร compito di un ornitologo in pensione (S.L. Jackson) riportare la situazione alla calma, ritornando a un mestiere che aveva lasciato per colpa di una tragica vicenda.
Mi sono distratta un giorno e sono cresciute delle taccole giganti.

The gathers at the top of the sleeve should be set into a space exactly the same as the wristband, to make it lie flat also.These little attentions are a great assistance to the washer-woman.
omg. I must try this.
Wonderful!
I think to limit all those useful infos to just women (and specifically workwomen!) is a waste of knowledgeโฆ
the amount of *-ism in that book is just as can be expected from a book of the early 1800 that is meant to be used when teaching the poor so that they can become exploitable domestic workers.
But then, it was the early 1800s, it's not like one could expect anything better.
And for people who are interested in historical clothing, it's full of useful bits.

E intanto in lombardia gli slot vaccinali ci sono, ma la gente non ci si iscrive :(

se avevo qualche senso di colpa per essermi fatta vaccinare anche se lavoro da casa, beh, non ne ho piรน.

Poi โci sono gli slotโ non vuole necessariamente dire che siano la settimana dopo e non dopo tipo un mese.
Perรฒ insomma, non si รจ piรน in una fase in cui pensare di essere vaccinati รจ un sogno remoto.
A qualcuno in zona como / varese interessano due o tre forni solari a pannello di cartone e stagnola?
Li ho fatti per provare forme diverse e li ho usati per qualche mese, funzionano, ma nel frattempo me ne sono fatta uno di compensato per cui non li uso piรน e ho bisogno di liberare lo spazio.

Al momento non ho in previsione fusioni in ghisa!
Uno dei posti da cui di tanto in tanto compro cose online sembra avere una sola misura di scatolone (enorme), da loro non riesco ad avere bisogno di cosรฌ tante cose da riempirla, e di consequenza mi son trovata con un grosso sacchetto pieno di chip di mais da imballaggio, quelli che si attaccano assieme con l'acqua.
Ora, a parte farci modellini, che perรฒ non farรฒ mai, e una volta fatti rimangono comunque ad occupare spazio in casa, c'รจ qualcosa di utile e pratico che ci si puรฒ fare?
L'alternativa รจ provare a sentire conoscenti di conoscenti se hanno bambini dell'etร giusta per giocarci (ma tra i conoscenti non ce ne sono, che io sappia).

BTW, I feel I should mention that of course I'm also leaving freenode, you can find me on both Libera.chat and OFTC.
I may still be on FreeNode for a few days, to help with the ongoing migration of one channel, but if you need to contact me it's better to use one of the other two.

* one tiny bit of kneadable eraser
* some pencil lead shavings (from a 2mm lead rather than a regular pencil, so that there was no wood)
kneaded together for a while, applied with a toothpick over an #SMDjumper
profit!
no more cleaning a jumper that has been written over with pencil every time I try to update the firmware on my #espruinoPico

disclaimer: wash your hands after kneading the eraser and before touching sensitive electronics, as they may be more conductive than usual :D

New shirt!
Sewn by hand, pattern by Bernadette Banners on youtube with minor changes (all of the non-historically accurate details are mine).
Light blue (with a purple tint) shirting that I bought a few years ago, so it counts as stashbusting, right?
Worn tucked in
and loose, with a belt (I guess it can be worn without the belt, but I don't think I like that look)
It is pretty long, almost reaching to above-knee lenght.
Also, is it me, or am I accidentally ending up with a pidgeon breast look even when wearing things from a different era?

Dear fediverse: do you know of any online shop in Europe that sells food-grade paper packaging such as bread bags in quantities suitable for the needs of a household (a min quantity of 100 pieces is fine, 1000 is not, 10000 is definitely way too high)?
Excluding amazon / ebay / other big platforms.
Thanks, and boosts welcome
Gentil fediverso: qualcuno conosce dei negozi online in Europa che vendono imballaggi di carta per alimenti, tipo i sacchetti del pane, e che vendano a privati in quantitร adeguate a privati (acquisto minimo 100 pezzi va bene, 1000 no, 10000 รจ decisamente troppo)?
Che non siano amazon / ebay / altre megapiattaforme.
Grazie, e i boost sono graditi

in reply to Thomas • •good idea!
but, the hosted service is not really publicly available yet, right? snikket.org/hosting/
(my current target are non-technical users that aren't going to be able to run their own server)

in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • • •Snikket
in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • • •jabberfr.org and hot-chilli.net are two other (non-Snikket) XMPP hosting providers.
That said, Snikket hosting is up and running, there are just a few final things we're working on before it's officially launched, such as the billing system and working out the pricing.
Drop an email to hosting@snikket.org if you're interested in trying it out, we're not charging anything during this beta period.

in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • • •xmpp.org has good resource links and foundational information/ . xmpp.org/getting-started/ has links to open-server lists.
You might also want to mention how gateway accounts can extend a user's reach. Gateways give proxy connections through IRC, matrix, email and a huge number of other network communications, right through a person's everyday client. xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0100.xโฆ
Delib
in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • • •For example, the jmp.chat gateway. Once a person has an account on some server and a client application, then jmp.chat/ gives xmpp phone numbers with standard telephony network connections for a small fee after a free demo period. They are a gateway for voicemail, texts, SIP and other media through xmpp, and committed to the GPL.
For more technically inclined readers, xmpp.org/about/myths.html compares benefits of xmpp with other communication standards protocols.
Elena ``of Valhalla''
in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • •Thanks everybody!
I've sent what I was writing, it went badly for reasons mostly unrelated to xmpp itself, but this time I'm going to save all those links in a place where I'm going to find them again the next time I need them.
