            To add : Support communication infrastructure outside of AWS : that can be as simple as showing up on Lemmy regularly, visiting CBC website and a variety of Canadian information sources all the way to having a computer offline with a copy of early 2025 Wikipedia and various open sources software and decent local LLM.

            Community involvement will be for two objectives: increasing preparedness is evident but also your own mental health that will be way more stable with you actively doing something tangible + the support network.

            ADHD has been good for gathering a basic set of skills in a wide range of situations.

                Today was a good example. Source Canadian beta-Amylase for oat milk (actually failed though), operate on a chicken foot, hang housing for mason bees, sharpen a chainsaw; replace a laptop battery, convert EDE database files to .vcf, troubleshoot bluetooth DRM bugs; casual cabinetry and a curry feast. Technopeasant reality.

                Oh and download 40GB of family data in preparation for deleting Amazon Prime. We’re going with Syncthing and Immich. Divest and Deny!
