This audiobook/radioplay of Ulysses is one of the greatest feats of literature, it is beautiful and freely available.

https://archive.org/details/Ulysses-Audiobook-Merged/

I don’t think you can go wrong with which print version you get personally, but I would recommend the Oxford edition.

inb4 some morons comment “how many have YOU been in”.. it’s probably fair to say “star” probably is the operating term for “actor”

“Will & Grace” fans may remember Corey for his recurring part as Josh – one of Grace’s boyfriends – in five episodes of the hit sitcom

Yeah, no. No idea. But I’m probably not a real fan.

Notes:

  1. Threadiverse is Piefed, Lemmy, and Mbin. Fediverse only accounts for listed software [12], not the other [117] software tracked by Fediverse-Observer.
  2. Fediverse-Observer provides daily MAU back to 20221130. FediDB only provides a current snapshot (snapshot within the last 15 minutes, no time series data) and doesn’t track all software.
  3. FediDB seems to use unclear math to get there counts and overestimate the MAU on most software (see previous week’s post, if interested in learning more).
  4. Weirdly Loops has a ~3 week gap in data about a year ago.

Takeaways:

  • Lemmy appears to still be jumping around with servers coming in and out.
  • Loops still in a downward trend, but looks to be shallow-ing out. Hopefully stabilize by next week’s post.
  • Piefed possibly stabilized. Looks like ~3000 users joined in the last wave (~1 month ago) of those ~2000 stayed. Alt. up to all of them stayed, but ~1000 moved servers once after arriving.
  • Pixelfed had some good growth this week.

Random tip that may be useful to same. Garden centres get a lot of pallets with a light wooden frame cage where they ships, small trees and whatever . Often they actually want someone take them off their hands, and if you drop one their side on a regular pallet you get a modularly extendable stack with great airflow and possibility for easy cover if needed.

Recently my laptop shit the bed, but luckily I’d set up daily backups with restic! .. It’s been a year and I dug up the archives exactly once, to find some clippings I took from a documentary on badgers. Yeah maybe you should back things up and all but you’ll probably be fine either way.. 😅

Need deck stair tread help!

https://sh.itjust.works/u/bridgeenjoyer posted on Mar 7, 2026 23:06

Ok so this is fun. We are finally redoing our deck on our house that was built in the 70’s.

The stair treads were these nice wide low-angle kind, using a bracket made by Erecto-pat, which is no longer in business at all! I find it baffling that NO ONE makes a stair step bracket like this, at least nowhere that I can find! Literally the only thing I could find on the entire internet is this ebay listing:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/324682985573

If anyone knows a similar part, that would be super helpful. Otherwise I am going to have to go to a custom metal fab shop to get some made!

Side note, their patent expired, so if you wanna make some bucks, start making some of these up! They work perfectly for stairs. The only reason I need new ones is some are rusted after all these years.

With a press brake it would take a few minutes. Doing something at home with sheet metal that thick is going to be a bear of a job even with a sheet bender. You might be able to find an outfit online willing to do it for you, or at the very least cut the sheets for the fab shop to bed for you first.
