Quite some years ago (2006-08), we brought the #OLPC AKA the 100$ laptop to Ethiopia as pilot. A surprising thing happened. The laptops were often without battery power in the morning. A thing that wasn’t anticipated. It had two reasons. One was the keyboard LED (it was removed in later series). It was used by the parents to have a light at home. The other was a bigger surprise. The parents used the mesh networking to discuss market prices for their produce. Fascinating. 1/8
(also, this is the song I was trying to sing, with the clip timed to start in the right spot: https://youtu.be/WiPcgmSQ5uI?si=B0aUtKQaORxBcoOw&t=40 )
bad relationships, introspection, cooly-distant liberation, gender themes
The vocals are a little lost. Sorry about that. #music
So, like, I forgot the words to a song today. And most of the melody.
The only thing I remembered about it was that it was in Shrek. At the end. Somewhere?? And that the first two notes were a G and a D.
I assumed I was just singing that song (but had simply forgotten the lyrics) when I wrote this song.
Oops.
Anyways, I'll reply with the music so it can have its own CW.
@reese this is exactly the late night content I was hoping to see when I opened my phone tonight.
@j3s @woozong one of my favorite things to do when we get a big snow is to walk somewhere and achieve a small quest.
It's like the snow discourages running real errands, but walking through the snow to get half a gallon of milk or whatever just feels pretty dang good. It's so quiet and I feel so fulfilled afterwards.
