I'm testing out the latest release, Lemmy 0.18.2. So is anyone using Lemmy.nz because it's been updated.

If you use the website, be sure to check out the themes if you haven't already. I'm not sure if they came in this release or a previous one that I didn't notice but there are a bunch of new ones.

Themes, neat!

Fancy, pure black it is!

Themes were there before, but there were only a couple - I had already set darkly-compact.

Pretty 'bright' themes, not much to my liking yet. Sticking to darkly-compact as the only other compact one is litely, and I prefer a dark screen.

Good to see Lemmy progressing though :)

Yeah I knew about the couple of themes but I saw something weird with the theme when doing a test run of the update, which led me to finding all the new themes. I haven't looked in a while so it could have easily been there for a couple of versions, but it sounds like it's new.

Nice pic! Arrived in Rotorua last night, Going to get out for some riding. Unfortunately i forgot to get out of being on call for work so fingers crossed no calls!

I have two minutes till a meeting so can't actually do any work lest I get caught up in it and be late to the meeting. So it goes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That's me when I have 30 minutes in between meetings. Have some water, go to the bathroom, answer a couple of messages/emails and your left with such an iffy amount of time to actually get stuck into work.

Only got a few hours sleep last night, bad dreams about blood clots and related issues. Work is getting done on autopilot today.

Sometimes my dreams are so vivid I have to take half an hour to process it all before I go back to sleep

It's been 34-36 degrees over here the last few days and we're all melting, but last night we had a doozy of a thunderstorm which broke the heatwave. Such a relief. Not that I'm missing winter at all - we get -10C then.

This week is turning out to be manic and I'm getting crochety. But I also blew my step goal away by 1pm so there's that. Hope everyone else is having more fun than I am this week!

I guess there is an upside to angry stomping!
