While the cat was hiding from the strangers she somehow managed to get stuck to a glue trap. She's never had trouble avoiding those before. Fortunately she didn't get much stuck in it so it was easy to separate her from the trap.

6 other PeerTube instances are now showing videos from https://video.typica.us

I have no idea what the Score column in the table showing me that means. Are larger numbers better or worse? Am I supposed to be earning points? Does my instance have a score? Is there any down side to pretending that column just doesn't exist?

The middle drawer has dividers and I think it might be intended for silverware. As for the giant drawer on the top, I don't think I own enough of whatever that's supposed to be used for. The other 3 compartments are all large enough to be general purpose.

This is the new buffet table. Not sure what all the compartments were designed for, but I won't complain about a free storage space upgrade.

Furniture delivery started late so they had to pick up the key while I was helping close the shop. I got home as they were finishing loading the old chairs to take away. I didn't discuss room layout but they got everything in the right place.

From a box of tea I was given on one of my trips to China. Inside the box was 2 more pretty yet heavy duty boxes each containing a vacuum sealed bag with delicious tea.

I moved this chair in preparation for today's dining room furniture upgrade and now the cat likes to hang out near (not on) that. She only sits in this kind of chair if I'm also sitting in the chair.

Today I bought 94 pounds of tea.

The trick with email interviews is to read all the questions before you start answering them.

I guess I don't have to take a phone call with interview follow up questions because the email responses were solid. That's fine with me. I hate phones (as small touch operable computers they're fine as long as I can easily put my own code on them).

So I guess the next server to set up is code hosting. That, at least, I can go with something smaller. #deletegithub

The presentation template for retreat this year is very yellow.

I wonder if this still works.

Might want to move this to a beefier server a little sooner to speed up the transcode jobs. Oh well, playing some more Atelier Lydie & Suelle while I wait.

Letting the transcode finish before I hit the publish button, but if anybody wants to see some coffee roasting videos as they go up, I think you can follow @neal@video.typica.us to see those in your timeline.

Watching the server transcode its first video.

Test video now uploading

Needed to modify /dist/server/lib/emailer.js to get mail sending set up on peertube because I couldn't figure out how to get it to not fail on the mail server's self signed cert through regular settings. Added rejectUnauthorized: false to the tls object and that made everything happy.
