Some Wonderful Things From 2022
As 2022 recedes into the rearview mirror, I took some time to go back over my media diet posts to pick out some books, movies, Tkottke.org

Not *so* new. The Velvet Revolution that brought down the communist government in late '89 was famous for its silence: hundreds of thousands of citizens gathering but, for much of the time, *saying* nothing. No slogans, no banners, just presence.
It's the best example I know of to explain an idea well-known among the Euro lefts but almost unknown in the US: not a noisy "protest" or a contentious "demonstration," but a less specified, more fluid *manifestation*. In the US we'd really benefit from this kind of conceptual freedom.
There are countless other examples of the political power of ~silence. Just ask any subaltern...
Just a reminder that instead of crediting creators whose videos they pinch, GPD would rather block you when you bring it to light. Stay classy GPD.

GPD are getting quite desperate against the Steam Deck
Think GPD are a trustworthy company to buy devices from? Well, with the Steam Deck now here, they appear desperate.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)

Did the #sixfanarts challenge around christmas last year, and had a blast. Considering firing up a new one over the next few days.
Anyway, here's the one from last year.

6 fanarts. Third one is She-ra, the Princess of Power herself.
I've heard good stuff about the new show, but I haven't seen it yet, so I went for the good old 1985 original version, the one I know and love as I grew up with it.
She-ra is always a delight to draw!

go to another planet and the first thing we do is to dump trash for some else to pickup. 😜

Scheduled posts!
Another feature that exists on the Fediverse!
Again, not on Mastodon, but it's available on Friendica:
1. Compose message
2. Pick your date and time
3. Submit
4. View scheduled message
Once scheduled, it will be visible throughout the Fediverse, including on Mastodon.
The problem with depending on 3rd party apps for Mastodon features is that should Mastodon change their API -- and they could -- the feature could break.
All the better to have native support for the feature.
Which I'm sure might happen eventually.
@Gargron Thanks for the assurance! This is something many developers of 3rd party apps fear when building new innovations.
Anyone who built for Twitter circa 2010 can tell you stories of livelihoods instantly lost.
This tool is nice, although I want to set up my own version.
Great to take keeping the API stable seriously. I've been burned by that. Not only anything important, just hobby stuff with RSS for train times that used twitter.
Literally put me off programming for a year.
Toot v17.5 has been released!
This was meant to be the translation release, but the only bigger feature that made it in was selecting language when posting, as that feature turned out to be way more complicated to get right than I expected. Still not sure it's quite right, so let me know how it works out for you!
Other than that, this release has mainly bugfixes, and an experimental ability to select text in toots after you open them.
