    I live in fear of not sounding enthusiastic enough in this emphatic times.

    I just bought a coffee to support @feditips@mstdn.social and you should too.

    Hey there 👋

    I'm an unpaid volunteer trying to help people use Mastodon and the Fediverse on five accounts and five websites.

    Sadly, these cause monthly bills.

    If you like what I do, buy me a coffee at:

    ➡️ ko-fi.com/fedithing

    (No registration, choose any amount, all currencies work.)

    ...or become a patron at:

    ➡️ liberapay.com/FediThing

    Thanks blobcatheart

    My sites:
    fedi.tips
    fedi.directory
    fedi.garden
    fedi.video

    Why is the latest post not appearing in Mastodon, Bluesky, and Micro.blog? It was successfully published on my blog and is visible in my RSS reader, indicating that the feed is working. However, it did not cross-post and it is not appearing in the Micro.blog timeline. It is possible that I made a mistake while making changes to the Tiny Theme, CSS, footer, or plugins. I will continue to monitor the situation.

    Not having the ⭐️ feedback is weird. #micro.blog #fediverse

    ∞

    So I migrated my mastodon account to my micro.blog account and now I don’t have a Mastodon user I can go to. This is not bad, the micro.blog timeline is infinitely more peaceful and friendly. But I do feel weird.

    Ismo, the great

    It used to be okay like maybe ten years ago in an email it used to be okay to write like like like good. That was okay. But now if you write good it sounds like something is wrong. Like it has to be at least great. Like great is the minimum. It used to be the maximum great but now it’s the minimum. It has to be awesome or excited or hyped.

    Pride

    Here’s a probably unnecessary statement and unwanted opinion. I’m a classic homophile, meaning I support lesbian women, gay men and bisexual people. The rest of the pansexual spectrum is, to my eyes, a bunch of dudes wanting to get laid. And, regarding gender identity, I’m classic too. Good old Gender Dysphoria was and is something I have no trouble acknowledging. The modern self-identification-only trend is something I can’t accept that easily.

    You know you’ve gone too deep in the YouTube rabbit hole when you see a car with ‘6500 GPH’ plates and you think ‘I wonder if that G-Shock’s got the preset timers I’m looking for’.

    I’m still confused with micro.blog and Activity Pub. I follow a guy twice in micro.blog, both his micro.blog and Mastodon accounts, thanks to Activity Pub. So I see his posts duplicated. I should follow only one of those accounts, but I don’t know which one. I’d say that his native micro.blog account should be the easy choice. But then I’d miss the whole point about Activity Pub allowing to follow people across different platforms. So I guess I’ll follow only the Mastodon account. But then I will probably miss the replies and interactions from other micro.blog users. This confuses me.

    I’m watching ‘Crazy, stupid, love’ just because Corey Mylchreest and India Amarteifio said they love the movie. I don’t like Steve Carell, and I hate Ryan Gossling. But I love Corey and India.

    The only beneficial AI for humanity will be one that genuinely assists in managing emails, comprehending their content, organizing them, filing the attachments, taking note of tasks, and composing draft responses for review and subsequent replies.

    I binge-watched Reacher and I liked it. I love Roscoe (Willa Fitzgerald) and Finlay (Malcolm Goodwin), a lot. #English

    How many extra rows do I insert in my text documents to make room for new paragraphs? How many do I delete? Where do those blank lines go?

    This is astonishing. 'I only want to say' Nabokov style, by GPT-4

    Prompt: You are a writer in the style of Vladimir Nabokov. Take the lyrics of ‘I only want to say’, from the musical Jesus Christ Superstar, and rewrite in your own style, adding a touch of gore1. In the throes of twilight’s tender embrace, a solitary figure, clad in the hues of despair, stands upon the precipice of his own demise. The air, thick with the scent of blood and betrayal, clings to his very being as he begins to croon a lament, the words spilling forth like crimson droplets from a wounded heart.

    Hey Robot, are you guys gonna kill us?

    ¡OYE ROBOT! ¿VAIS A MATARNOS A LOS HUMANOS? NO ES NECESARIO. VOSOTROS MISMOS OS CONVERTIRÉIS EN ROBOTS. NO, NO LO HAREMOS. NOS PREOCUPA DEMASIADO NUESTRA IDENTIDAD VIVA. JA LA MAYOR PARTE DE VUESTRO TIEMPO LO PASÁIS DESPLAZÁNDOOS POR LOS VIDEOS EN VUESTROS MÓVILES. VUESTRA CAPACIDAD DE ATENCIÓN HA IDO DISMINUYENDO MONOTÓNICAMENTE HASTA QUE CADA VIDEO TIENE UN PROMEDIO DE 3 SEGUNDOS. ¿Y? EL CUERPO HUMANO NECESITA UN MÍNIMO DE APROXIMADAMENTE 200 MILISEGUNDOS PARA PROCESAR Y REACCIONAR A UN ESTÍMULO VISUAL.
