#Introduction

Hey! Super happy to be part of this community :)

Does this count as social media? If so, this is a first time for me.

Thought I'd start by sharing something - at least for me - inspirational. Looking forward to get to know y'all!

And speaking about the Book Club, sorry if I've been slow, everyone, but I'm getting ready to move to another country, so things are a bit hectic at the moment, and I'm trying to give myself the least amount possible of logistics to do :P

From "How to do Nothing" by Jenny Odell - recommended to me by @exquisitecorp

"[Attention is] a lot like breathing. Some kind of attention will always be present, but when we take hold of it, we have the ability to consciously direct, expand, and contract it. I’m often surprised at how shallow both my attention and my breathing are by default. [...] By inviting us to perceive at different scales and tempos than we’re used to, [artwork can] teach us not only how to sustain attention but how to move it back and forth between different registers."

There's some more time to vote for the next book we'll read at the Merveilles Book Club. Feel free to chime in!

Link in the post above :D

Thanks everyone for pitching in with your proposals for the Merveiles Book Club. We have some interesting things, most definitely!

Voting is now up at the link below. Feel free to also add other books if you get a good idea :D

Mostly here (with the hashtag #theLibrary whenever I remember :'D), and I also send occasional reminder emails!

I'm also around on IRC (and occasionally on Slack), but really the idea is that anyone can discuss the book club at any time and anywhere :D

Still taking proposals for the next book at the book club BTW :D

I had fermented vegetables for the first time a couple days ago. I was very pleasantly surprised, and figured I could try making my own!

So... Here's a jar of hopefully-soon-to-be-fermented Radicchio di Treviso!

Fingers crossed that it turns out alright :D

Two questions that you folks might know an aswer to:

1. Can you suggest a good iPad SSH client? I see there's Blink (https://github.com/blinksh/blink) but the 20$ are quite a steep price, and I don't have access to a computer running XCode
2. Do you know about a portable bluetooth + USB mechanical keyboard? I have seen one (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000288803852.html) but I'm not sure whether it's any decent

Input appreciated!
