Labyrinth: The Adventure Game is the most gorgeous #ttrpg book I've picked up. I'm a little scared to run it because it is very #osr rules-lite but my wife LOVES Labyrinth and I couldn't resist. Someone suggested running it with #troikarpg, tempting since I just received the Troika! supplement, Acid Death Fantasy.

Well I did it. I self-hosted #FoundryVTT on my #OpenShift cluster. It's time to move my party off #DnDBeyond.

Moving to the #TalesOfTheValiant 5e fork as soon as it's out of playtest.

I was going to go full FOSS as I usually do, with #MapTool, but eh not sure if I'm ready for that lift.

I completed the first draft of my first blog post ever for my personal gooseandquill.blog! It's a tutorial that covers setting up rootless #podman on #GuixSystem then writing and building your first #guile package to produce a container image runnable on Podman and #kubernetes. I'm looking for beta readers!

Because I run #OpenShift at home, I plan to launch my blog with a little overengineered fun courtesy of #shipwright! It uses #buildah and #tekton under the hood.

I accept the fragmentation. Posting #podman #podmancompose, #guix stuff to Twitter was so foolish because where are the #foss folks? They're here.

I can't help but try out every new #nix tool. I've been using #devbox to manage all my non-#python project dependencies. I'm a big fan: the https://jetpack.io team is so responsive to feedback. Gave #flox a try today which is similar but uses their own rolling release #nixpkgs "stability" channels. You get your pick of triweekly, weekly, or monthly freshness.

Should I do a blog post comparison of @domenkozar's https://devenv.sh, flox, and Devbox? 🤔

This month in The Inner Loop I tackle myths and misconceptions from claims #kubernetes is just too complex to the early death of #DevOps. The Cabinet of Curiosities at the bottom is the home of #art, #philosophy and fun tools like #InfiniteCanvas @kinopio https://resources.garden.io/kubernetes-and-the-myth-of-complexity

Gregor Kiczales is the person who first got me excited not just about programming but that it was possible a silly young art student like me could even learn programming using the #htdp paradigm for designing programs step by step, function by function. A source of wisdom whether you're writing in #lisp or #python. Such a calm comforting voice too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iD5iM64iEo

Currently obsessed with all things #Helm and #HelmCharts. I'm also reading Learning Helm written by @mattfarina, Josh Dolitsky and Matt Farina, which is also just a fantastic intro to #k8s and how we got here

One of the things I like about #deltachat is it's a fantastic fallback when friends won't join me on #TelegramApp or #matrix because it just uses SMTP and IMAP. The only difference they notice is I write much shorter emails without the salutation and valediction

I was an #emacs #magit purist but #githubdesktop is actually kind of lovely in how smoothly you can cherry pick, merge, squash and re-order commits. Check out this demo of new features from GitHub Universe 2022: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUYkRWGWntE

Does anyone regularly cycle off their #ADHD medication? I'm in the minority taking #Modafinil but I usually take the weekend off every week. I turn into a lump all weekend but it feels good to rest

Here's my belated #MyTopShelf. #Buddhist and #yoga books and a book on #carpentry from my wife's time in an all-female tiny house building workshop
