#mousetrap

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

I noticed a couple of days ago that we had an uninvited visitor in our garage.

At first I wasn't sure that this mousetrap would actually work and it seemed that perhaps I was just feeding peanut butter to a mouse with a rapidly expanding waistline. But after two days, I found the mouse in the trap just before I went to bed last night.

We then went on a little midnight bicycle ride to a place with some trees a couple of km from home on the other side of the canal. I assume mice aren't likely to find their way back from that distance...

I'm also looking forward to crossplaying with my friends who only play on console (assuming I can opt to only matchmake based on inputs because I don't want to subject them to MnK lol)

I do think it's interesting that intentional PC-console crossplay is taking time to develop since it seemed to work really well when that bug had consoles accidentally matching to PC lobbies lol

Nightshift has started: after the first play mouse got below the couch a second play/training mouse was hunted and shared (approx 60 min).
While I could capture and release the second mouse, I hope the first one will "test" a (life) trap later so I can release her, too.

Sorry for the grainy pictures, they just didn't hold still for the 🤳 😉

I’ve had this idea of the ActivityPub Protocol powering Mastodon, Threads, & others in The Fediverse, as a kind of Rube-Goldberg Machine.

What kind of Rube-Goldberg Machine ?

The MouseTrap Boardgame from childhood !

I captioned the following images to get the idea out of my head.
