Sometimes feel like I am literally the only person that looks at our print media and thinks “Wait, does that meet our #accessibility guidelines?”

It’s nice to know that, even though I’m not based in an office anymore, I can still “fix people’s computers” by (metaphorically) standing behind them and watching them.
Hi #fediverse, I need some help.
I made myself a “Mastodon” account a while back (@dtw). Since then I’ve ActivityPub enabled my website (@rubyquartglassess@rubyquartzglasses.me.uk) (yeah, I need to shorten that).
Now, I want to start using #pixelfed. I can create “Pixelfed” account from scratch, or by “authenticating” with one of my existing accounts, right? However, I think, anyone can follow my @dtw or @rubyquartglassess@rubyquartzglasses.me.uk feed from pixelfed anyway… so, I don’t need an account on a pixelfed server?
And then I wonder, if any fedi app can read any ActivityPub feed, why are there different apps?
Pretty much speechless at the damage caused by #HS2 to the countryside in Buckinghamshire. I don’t even live there and it’s heart breaking.
Still, we had to find some way of getting the money out of the public coffers and into someone’s pockets. God knows we couldn’t just spend it on people that need it.
Ew, gross 🤢
It takes 6 clicks to report one account as spam on #instagram
Nothing ever works first go, though. It’ll never catch on.
Trying to set up ActivityPub so people can follow directly instead of syndicating!
Do you reckon Marvel/Paramount regret giving Musk a cameo in Iron Man 2?
I “love” lists of “before they were famous” movie roles, which either:
- include the actor’s breakout feature (e.g. Steve Martin in The Jerk)
- completely overlook their notable childhood roles (e.g. Christian Bale in Empire of the Sun)
- just ignore half their career (e.g. Keanu Reeves in The Lake House 2006… 15 years after Point Break)
These are lists curated by actual people. If LLMs are trained on this rubbish, no wonder they spout such junk.
