in reply to Joseph Teller

oh yeah... remember who he wants to be controlling things in regards to the CDC, etc. It will get MUCH worse... as in the CDC will be near useless under Trump this time. He plans on purging it, just like he wants to purge the joint chiefs of staff of the military, the FBI, the Education system etc. And the current speaker will do whatever he wants, if they can ram rod it thru.

Experimenting with moving some of my smart home stuff more "in-house" where it is handled in my local network without relying on internet services and involving more open source solutions has led me to a fun little experiment that helps with meetings in remote work, check out what I did and how I did it on my blog here nickmoline.com/2024/11/13/yourโ€ฆ

I went to the Lamberton Conservatory in Rochester, NY yesterday. Well worth the paltry $3 entry fee. Cool plants and also turtles and tortoises and little birds crawling and hopping around underfoot.

Made yesterday a couple very quick rough mockups of how lists on Mastodon could be extended to be public and/or used as starter packs. I think it could be one of the easiest way to share follow recommandations with a minimum of change from the bits Mastodon already has? (another could be being able to generate a CSV of a specific set of people and then share that to be imported, but thatโ€™s much more technical)



I know it is seemingly criminal to some to mention other social networks on Mastodon, however would like to mention I am on Bluesky at bsky.app/profile/joshuastrobl.โ€ฆ

Liam (Gaming on Linux) has been doing a lot of fantastic work creating / maintaining lists for gaming, Linux, and open source (yours truly is also on there). I would suggest using those to follow a bunch of people and filter down after that. Also be sure to ask Liam to add you on the list if you do Linux / OpenSource things!

There's some good stuff happening over at Bluesky. It's the first time in a while the community seems pretty excited and positive about something.

Liam @gamingonlinux put together a starter pack for Linux and open source accounts that you can use to get rolling.

Why is YouTube's Next Video button so big? Double-tapping to skip 10 seconds is like threading the needle. Which MBA-having middle manager has "numbers of videos loaded" as their KPI?
in reply to Annika Backstrom

I noticed this and that's what I suspect too. It's basically unusable these days โ€” the double-tap 10-second skip was one of the best features of youtube, but I guess it's 'not commercially viable'.

so, what do we do now? You have been a voice of realism these past few years. Is there any hope not built on a mountain of dead bodies?

@manvsxerox Take care of ourselves and others, seek out trustworthy sources of information, and try to keep the flame alive. That's all I've got.

Brush with? ???
Many of us have felt like we've been living under a police state since at least Reagan, and the Democrats have been happy to pile on. They certainly ran away from defund, even though the real referendum was and continues to be the working class economy. I'll thank the Democrats for some more liberal policies on environment and social justice, but those still take a backseat to the interests of capitalists. Plus we should think of authority globally.
