I do feel bad for the CS agents that get the properly riled up customers. It’s like calling a beekeeper to remove bees after you smashed their hive.

Comcast is just like “they’re nice and pissed off now. Go get em tiger.”

Every year I think Monaco can’t get worse and somehow it does. At least last year was exciting in that Leclerc finally won his home race, but even that was a slow lap snooze fest.

Generally lower*. I should really proof read these.

Yea varies wildly by state. Traveling around the south I’ve seen anywhere from like 2.40-3.00/gal. I feel like South Carolina must have like no state taxes on gas.

Overall it’s been pretty lower than it’s been in a few years by me.

Headline is confusing. Sounds like the state is trying to withhold funding from the district. Federal is siding with the district and trying to overrule the state.

That being said, still confusing, does this admin support or not support states’s rights 😂.

Libby is free and lets you check out ebooks or audiobooks from your local library on your phone.

Same. These comments had me googling use cases and now I’m like welp, been missing this.

Can atproto scale down? Decomposing the Bluesky appview, and self-hosting the pieces

I (finally!) wrote about scaling down the Bluesky AppView and how we can get to self-hosting beyond just your PDS in atproto!

ahhhh! thanks!

hey @bnewbold.net is there more documentation or a post somewhere about these additions to goat? github.com/bluesky-soci...

trying to mess with them, everything I do here results in "NSID not associated with a DID"

also am I correct in thinking these can check + add custom lexicons for a did?

In fairness, “you can make millions of individual molecules but there are 13 that you need but can’t make so let’s outsource their production to plants. Also, it’s actually 12…you can make one of the vitamins…as long as the sun’s rays touch your skin like you yourself are a plant” does sound fake.

The video feeds work pretty nice from what I’ve played with. Enjoying them as a short form alternative. I wish if they popped up in my normal feeds though it wouldn’t auto play with sound on.

Constantly sabotages music I have streaming to other devices just browsing the app.

My first job out of college used an inventory system that was a telnet client TUI. They switched to SAP while I was there at it was a disaster.

Wasn’t nearly as specialized, ruined inventory management for years, took forever for people to switch, ended up heaping more work on “power users”

Great manifesto! Would love to be back in a world filled with intentional geocities pages instead of engagement driven socials.

Kermit on the Fleetwood Mac “Rumours” cover.

photoshopping the muppets onto iconic album covers: thread

Great read. Would agree with most of these criticisms. The Miami GP honestly has had some affordable deals for the whole weekend but it’s always announced last minute and hard to plan around.

US coverage on ESPN is awful. It starts broadcasting at race time so no pre-coverage, and is simulcast.

When talking about subscriptions is it subscriptions for the app, or subscriptions for creators a-la twitch or substack, and bsky gets a cut?

I thought that was what I read was a feature of graysky, and I assumed that was their reasoning for snapping its dev up. Premium subs to user content.

With Ridder it felt like please just throw the ball, don’t take that sack and knock us out of FG range.

With Kirk it was like please don’t throw that ball, just take the sack so we can kick the FG.

Dude was just lofting softballs into double/triple coverage today. The 3rd int was insane.

I had never read the original post, it was interesting in itself. Great reads!

I haven’t switched to it as a primary but it’s very nice to play with. Was using it to mess with copilot. I love how snappy it is to open a repo from your terminal. The launch time is incredible.

We were told this as well. Funny enough, the place you’re told to go to get advice or practice before the baby is born is the local fire department 😂. They’re the “qualified” people.

There were a couple people at the hospital who were allowed but they were not the nurses.

This is a piece of the puzzle, but I think the other issue is that Google is the top advertiser in the web space. If they have the top browser they can give preferential treatment to their own ads and give themself an advantage.

DOJ prob wants to separate the two entities.

Moved all my existing google home stuff to Apple Home with Homebridge because of this conflict. Can’t believe they signed off on releasing the new app with none of the legacy Nest stuff working.

Agree with everything you said in thread. Only worry I have so far is 1 app being primary. With the only secondary app existing being bought out by the company.

But agree this early on I still think they’re operating at good faith and happy to play with it. PDS was easy to setup; migration so-so.

Tad bit concerning that DraftKings is that far up there. But we’ll just look past that for now!

I haven’t had twitter for over a year, but something they do that annoys me: if a friend links me your post and I want to see your prof more I can’t see anything w/o an account.

Here I can click your profile as a lurker and browse all your stuff. I wonder if that ends up helpful with this issue.

What! Did not know these settings existed. Thank you!

Yay! Mina is here!
