       Loki: meow?Me: Migrating a Mastodon account from the server I started out on back in 2022.Hazel: meowMe: Nope, don't worry. It should be pretty transparent. One of the main reasons I moved is the character limit in posts is larger here. You fuzzballs get to have longer conversations with me.Loki: meowMe: Oh, right.- Things I am: In a #Polyfidelitous family of 3 older adults and 4 equally awesome (now mostly grown!) children.- How I pay the bills: #DataEngineering now, #WebDevelopment and #DevOps before that, #Chemistry even longer ago.- Other things I like: #Cats, obviously. Also #Astronomy (#AmateurAstronomy in particular), #History, #Science, #Books, #HistoricalFiction, #ScienceFiction, #SFF, #Programming, #Hiking, #Nature.Hazel: meow- Some weirder, more specific ones? Fine. #StudioGhibli. Indoor #Rowing. #Languages, currently learning #Spanish and #Latin.I geek out a lot about astronomical data and I maintain a widely-used database of stars (the HYG catalog, and its new extension, the AT-HYG catalog with Gaia data) at https://codeberg.org/astronexus.Yes, I'm a geek. But you still put up with me, right?Loki: meowHazel: meowMe: Love you both too.

       Ok, too many of my latest posts have been anti-generative-“AI” griping. Justified griping, I think, but griping nonetheless. Palate cleanser time. Have a cat this Friday evening. #Fedicats #CatsOfMastodon

       @davidrevoy Ah, the best kind of religion—the kind where Doing The Clearly Right Thing™️ doesn’t depend on your theology (or lack thereof):Lie down and rest in the Cat Deity’s temple and the Cat Deity really exists? Good, you’re now on good terms with said deity. Cat Deity doesn’t exist? You still got to rest! And hang out with a bunch of cats!

       (reading product descriptions)“blah blah blah blah blah drive knowledge democratization across blah blah blah…”Of course it’s an “AI” something or other.Probably the worst abuse of the term “democratic” since the establishment of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

       @0xabad1dea @lanodan Actually 16.833… (16 5/6) colors. They omitted one hex digit from the 6 digits for the full color, so they started with purple but ended up with maroon. Use your imagination a bit with those poor non-purple graphics until they release the patch to add that digit back.
