Thanks for that! I go back to the "I'll believe it when I see it" holding pattern. Still, sounds like progress :)

Breakthrough blood test finally confirms Chronic Fatigue Syndrome A team of scientists has developed a highly accurate blood test for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. The test reads tiny DNA patterns that reveal the biological signature of the illness. For millions who’ve ...

www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202... - here it says that mecfs is NOT a genetic disorder, but I thought that the DecodeME study (to which I gave my DNA) showed that it was. Are there any science explainers out there? What's the story?

@xathoron.bsky.social just so you know, I don't do private chat because of the age verification thing in the UK. I can be contacted via hugle.uk

..and to be that protector for one's own self, internally, that's a refuge!

Scarf and cardigan worn together for the first time, now ready to be given as a present. All my #knitting ends up baggy, I've got a ton more learning to do. Still, I'm pleased with these two :)

Hughie models the scarf in a comedy pose!

Why I Am an Anarchist Benjamin Zephaniah Why I Am an Anarchist June 2019

theanarchistlibrary.org/library/benj.... Deep inside I say a big thank you to the wonderful and sadly lost, #BenjaminZephaniah. I saw and really heard him do a poetry gig in my teens and was genuinely inspired. May he rest in peace.

It gives me courage that a good man with a voice speaks up for us like this. I thank you as a #pwme #chronicillness #invisibledisability patient of over 30 years.

Oh yeah, it rocks dunnit!?

Do you really like windows?

So nice to see you here on our social notwork :) #chronicillness

We are not happy about either in my view. The frame of the question is false but I see what you're getting at. We didn't fight hard enough with all the surveillance. It crept up bit by bit.

Neovim Hyperextensible Vim-based text editor

It's a newer version of 'vim' - neovim.io. If you get mastery of using this editor the world of linux. It's only a suggestion, but it is a very powerful editor and I find it much more fun than MSWord. It's VERY different and takes quite a bit of learning.

@mishellbaker.bsky.social best of luck with all things linux! I'm a long time user and will gladly help if I can when questions come up that searching doesn't answer. Just for the neovim editor alone linux is just wondrous :)

Positivism - Wikipedia

Do you really mean 'positivist' as in Comte (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positiv...), or 'being positive' like an optimist?

About a quarter of the posts I see have a title, a picture and a blurb which repeats the title. It's redundant and annoys, just venting..

You convinced me to give it another go and now I'm really hooked. Apparently there's a spinoff series set in Yorkshire, UK - The Ee Bye Eck'spanse!

"He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God."
~ Aeschylus

Because it comes from your good self, my folks agree. They thought I was talking rubbish a few years back. Well said!
