So he slept inside today, in a bird cage I bought. I left the cage near a heater set to a cozy temperature. Still had to sit there nearby for a while until he slept. In the morning he was very talkative and hungry, now moving okay, flying around the house. We fed him well with bug larvae and banana. He likes very much to be held. Eventually he started asking to go out, flyimg towards the glass windows. So we brought the cats inside and went out with him, carryimg in on my finger, free to fly if he wish. I walked around the backyard, and his parents are not here now. I showed him where I last saw them. Eventually he decide to fly, first to a bush nearby, look around a lot, then to a higher place, then a wire. Eventually he disappeared while I was not looking, and he seem to have gone the direction I last saw his parents. I hope that if he needs help, he can remeber he can count on us. Anyway, decided to trust his instinct because he seems fine now. Will update here if there are more news. Here's another picture of him, laying on my chest yesterday as I was watching TV.

Since a few days ago, a couple of birds brought their three chicks to some bushes on our backyard, and were feeding them there. The chicks would stay on the branches, while the parents would fly and get a bug, and them bring to the chicks. I do not know what kind of birds are these as they are not common here. The chicks are completely black. The parents are mostly black but have a white stripe on the top of their heads, plus a white sign on their back. Also one of the parents, which I assume is the male, have a long pair of feathers in the tail, like scissors.
Now today something happened. One of the chicks appeared on the ground on the garden in our backyard. We got it and brought inside, because we have cats and didn't want them to find the little bird. It looked tired, nervous or sick, but it had no external signs of being hurt. We thought that maybe it felt and hit the head, or something like that. We let it rest until he (or she, but I suppose it is a male because of the longish tail). So i brought him to the bush near where his family was, made sure he was holding to a branch, and went back to watch from afar. The family seemed worried about him, both parents and siblings flew near him. Then he flew like wanting to come back to out door where we were, and then went to another bush. Family followed. They sit near, making sounds like talking. The chick did not seem to like that, and flew away once again, this time farther from my house, on the ground below a grass bush. That's it I thought to myself. He wants time to recover alone. And then I went back inside. The sun was scorching hot, but I hoped it could rest in the shadow of the tall grass. Some 30 minutes later or so, I was inside and saw one of the parents flew near my window. I know its the same bird because they are rare here, first time I see this species. So I went out to my backyard to check on them. It turns out the stranded chick was again near my door on the ground, this time clearly very thirsty, panting with an open mouth. Well I guess I need to take care of him a bit longer. And so the rest of my day has been like this. I do not know what happened between him and his family, but he do not seem to want to go back. Maybe he was the youngest sibling and the parents were forcing him to fly too young, or dropped them like birds sometimes do to encourage their chicks to fly. Or maybe the parents thought three birds was too much to feed and were not taking care of this one. Who knows. But at this point this birds just wants to stay near me all the time. We are learning how to take care of him. Even bought a bird cage, something I thought I would never had, just so that we can leave him there when we need to do something. He tells us when we wants food, likes to be in the warm of my hand, and will never fly when in my hand. He clearly hates the cage, and now it is late here and I need to figure out how to keep him warm during the night considering that I also need to sleep. We are trying to teach him to get bugs, he is doing his best. I hope we will be able to return him to nature, but will take care while we need.

Not only aws is not required to build a large scale centralized system but Signal is also is not necessarily required to be centralized.

Those explanations about how something like Signal is not possible or pragmatic without AWS or the other big players felt like gaslighting . Going as far as suggesting "mastodon" (meaning actually the fediverse) also requires AWS is disingenuous at best and malicious at worst, specially considering the CEO was using the fediverse to communicate about the Signal outage as it was happening. Arguing that you need to rely on Android (Google), iOS (Apple) or Windows (MS) to run the client is straight lying as one can use the desktop version to run on Linux and requiring a mobile app to sign up is a choice Signal did, a problem of their own making. Yes I know there is a lot of nuance but the end result is the same: trust has been lost.

Indeed, but sadly that does not show me the posts for the hashtags I am following, and I wish it would show. Considering other replies I had, apparently it is something on the side of our instance. Thanks anyway :)

hello @npub1pg7…qeng
would you mind sharing what kind is that? thanks!

aaaah okay, so there are different ways to subscribe to a hashtag here and I am probably using the wrong one. thanks!
@stefano@snac.bsd.cafe is our instance connected to a relay?

A question for my fellow #snac users. I am using snac web interface which overall fits me very well, but I am missing a certain functionality (or maybe I just do not know how to do it?).The "followed hashtags" feature on snac seems to just generate a bunch of buttons, one for each hashtag, that I can click on and read the posts for that hashtag. I would like to have something more akin to what you see on other fedi clients, where the posts for that hashtag will be found together in your main feed, along with the posts for people you follow. Is that possible in snac web interface at all, or should I switch to some other fedi client?

Migrated to a new instance, time for a refresher #intro
If you are seeing this post that is likely because you followed me before at my old account at @npub1vus…kwx9
The fine folks there apparently were having some scaling issues and since I also wanted to be using a server software that is less wasteful, I moved here to bsd.cafe, graciously hosted by @npub1ef5…gcpc
If you are unsure whether you want to follow me, what is likely to be seen here is mostly pictures of #vegan food, #nature, #baking, and you will may also see me sometimes ranting about #technology, #programming, #privacy. Some of my interests in technology include #unix, #openbsd, #golang, #security. Glad to be on this new instance, hello bsd.cafe and snac.bsd.cafe people!
