You don't need to mansplain, you need a good pegging and to STFU. 💀
This content type is full of IndieWeb post types, which are all content types which allow me to take greater ownership of my own data. These are likely unrelated to my blog posts. You can find a better breakdown by actual post kind below:

The whole bad space thing and blocking tech.lgbt from other instances is absolutely insane. Some of the instances involved haven't blocked mastodon.social (which is full of basically anything and tons of random abuse because it's so big), but are blocking tech.lgbt. As usual, queer people are hyper-scrutinised, and all it takes is one terminally online with an unhealthy obsession to find a way to frame an entire community as fundamentally evil based on some questionable disagreements. Don't use block lists. You really don't want your blocking decisions to be based on people who add things to a list on a whim with no accountability and oversight. But even outside of block lists... god when are progressive communities going to get over this obsession with performative punishment and branding people as bad? I've never seen this instance allow bad people to stay, moderators always take care of things, and they're usually pretty responsive. It's beyond absurd to block tech.lgbt

I've been sent some bone-conducting Bluetooth headphone which - so the manufacturer says - are waterproof. I don't have a swimming pool at home (😢 ) so I'm going to try them out in the shower. There won't be any videos - but if this thing electrocutes my head please know that I died doing what I love; dicking around with weird gadgets from China.
The second annual Petaluma Pride Festival was a wild success, and waaay bigger than anticipated. Now it's time to rest, recover, ... and do the bookkeeping.
Really dislike that in Android 14 I now can't disable Nearby Share and so it permanently takes up a space in the sharing intent 😡

I spend an unreasonable amount of time making sure my blog renders well even if CSS isn't loaded. Whether it's a dodgy Internet connection, a text-only browser, or something else - it's nice knowing that my blog is in a logical order and perfectly usable without decorations. So fire up Lynx or w3m and take a look at your site. What do you need to change?
Just found the Google Sound Amplifier app for people who need ambient noises amplified. Really useful! Needs headphones in but definitely boosts. Except it only uses the phone microphone. You can't attach a different microphone and set it to use that. Alternatives?

Gerhard joins us for the 12th Kaizen and this time talk about what we DIDN’T do. We were holding S3 wrong, we put some cash back in our pockets, we enabled HTTP/3, Brotli compression, and Fastly websockets, we improved our SLOs, we improved Changelog Nightly, and we’re going to KubeCon 2023 in Chicago.

"Unleash your Creativity with the power of Leonardo Ai " Maybe change that to "unleash your ability to generate images based on the *actual* talents of others with unethical art sourcing while claiming that you're a creative person because you don't care"
@cadey@pony.social Confluence is /dev/null as a service, but with added CVEs
@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me I found explainxkcd a useful source when I made my own xkcd searcher (now a dead project) The transcript sections would be a good source for real alt text e.g. https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/2840:_Earth_Layers Edit: explainxkcd is still alive; my searcher doesn’t exist anymore
@www.jvt.me@www.jvt.me still a WIP but the author of “alt text reminder bot” has been working on this for a few years https://my.alt-text.org
Absolutely love the summary pages 👏🏽 I manually do some of this while writing my Week Notes https://www.jvt.me/week-notes/2023/40/ but love the format of your summary pages - deffo gonna have a look at using Trakt 👀
@atpfm@mastodon.social good episode. On the topic of “life streams,” there are some people like me in the #IndieWeb community that use our websites for this purpose. I record every podcast I listen to on @overcastfm@mastodon.social automatically. Every show and movie through Trakt. Every significant place I go with Swarm. My location in realtime using Overland (https://overland.p3k.app), and more. My stream: https://cleverdevil.io/content/all A monthly summary of activity: https://cleverdevil.io/summary/2022/11
Ooh yeah this looks like it may be more what I want, thanks! That transcript should be a great start 😁

Interesting viewpoint, I like it! I'm a fan of keeping all the things forever (and maybe "deleting it" but keeping a copy myself) but I like your perspective too

I did a thing👀 https://thenewstack.io/mvp-or-tvp-why-your-internal-developer-platform-needs-both/ This is off the back of amazing work by @matthewskelton@mastodon.social / @manuelpais@mastodon.social with @TeamTopologies@mastodon.social and Gregor Hohpe. My hope is to get more eyes on the concepts of Thinnest Viable (in addition to Minimum Viable) Platforms and Floating Platforms. Let me know what you think!

Deactivated my Microsoft account. That'll be over a decade of games, achievements, history, email and the like all gone once it's done. That was not an easy choice to make. And now I'll be alienating myself from anyone who plays on there. I still have my 360 (and a bunch of games to play on) so I'll keep that but I'll probably look to homebrew it so I can pull my stats into a SQLite database somewhere. I'm at the point now where I care a lot less if I "miss out". It'll be on Steam (because PC gaming - though still a cliff, once climbed - brings it to everyone) or GOG or what have you. I'm putting my faith into PC gaming, too. It's what got me into gaming (on library computers) and it's what keeps me interested. Never had a PlayStation so never had to worry about that.

Excited that it's only a week until my first #TechMids conference - there's a great lineup that I'm excited to be part of, and always excited to share dependency-management-data some more with the world, and learn from some excellent industry folks 🤓
I just tooted, in regard to the long ago removal of RSS feeds from Twxtter, Fxcebook etc, that they “shit those down to enhance lock-in”. I meant “shut those down” not “shit those down” but now in my headcanon “to shit down” means to enshittify a product by removing a feature that is beloved to users but obstructs profit-maximization.
