@koutropoulos someone's RSS feed has come back to life! Hard to believe Blogger is still up and running, TBH.
@JohnPhilpin after trying it: it means "show all posts and replies from people you follow" not "all posts made across the system". What's confusing you is the 2nd entry doesn't use an Oxford comma, "only people I'm following" only modifies "replies" and not "show posts".
@JohnPhilpin I didn't even remember that setting. Feel like that view should be a link on the Discover page. By default I would only want my timeline to be people I follow, otherwise, what's the point of following?
@KimberlyHirsh how does one see everything? Is that publicly accessible? I’ve always wanted to see “the firehouse” because I find it difficult to find new people to follow.
@manton just curious, have you ever publicly shared a roadmap of where you’d like to take your service?
When Dick “Shotgun” Cheney thinks you’re too dangerous to vote for… that says something.
@vagari putting those talents to work!
@jessamyn happy birthday, Jessamyn. Meet Marta, our 9-week old puppy, as shown by my daughter. 
@cdevroe I recently picked up an M3 MacBook Air, 16/1TB and have been impressed. Maybe pick one up first, determine if it’s enough, and if not, use it as your portable option to supplement a Mac Studio?
Apparently I’m not the only only person making a lot of use of their public library’s ebook lending…

Conditions were very ripe for a record-breaking Atlantic hurricane season, so here are the storms? (PS-we are just getting to the peak of the season now in September) Why The Atlantic Hurricane Season Has Been So Quiet Recently
@gdp hard to believe there were scenes on the cutting room floor. Sacre bleu!
@gdp maybe it’s an hour shorter?
@threetonesun I think at this point 80% of people are just consuming…
@jayroh 💯
@jayroh I don’t think you’re wrong. Otherwise, I’m not sure the choice makes sense. I’m sure one reasonably competent iOS engineer could modify the app to be iPad native in less than a week.
@jsonbecker we just finished it Sunday. It wasn’t so bad that it needed cancelling IMO. I would guess the answer to your question is “yes”.
@mbkriegh seems to touch upon the ideas we were discussing with @manton micro.blog/briandigi...
Spouse: “Smell my hands”
Me: “This never ends well”
(She had just harvested Lemon Balm and they smelled like a citronella candle.)
Is Penpot an opensource Figma alternative?
@larand 👋🏼 feel no obligation to reciprocate but I am here. I also wish I knew when people followed me, but 🤷🏻♂️ such I life inside someone else’s vision.
@manton I'll be the one to represent the opposite opinion: I think private likes (visible to only the author) would help people receive encouragement to stick with this "shouting into the void" hobby.

I get that working with time zones sucks for developers. I’m here to tell you that it’s no walk in the park for designers trying to spec UI behavior in an app that schedules things that happen across time zones, either.

@numericcitizen Posterous: now there’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time.
@the way to be an OG with the 2015!
A very impressive week for Democrats.
Left work early to take a shift driving the kids to activities. As they say, no good deed goes unpunished.
Sitting within eyesight of a Verizon 5G ultra wideband tower. Run an OpenSignal speed test (which the industry uses to brag about their performance) and get 150mbps. Run the Fast.com test that Netflix makes to show you your speed, 3.8mbps.
Sitting Vice President versus former (non-consecutive) President. Who has the incumbency advantage?
The last time Republicans won the popular vote for US Presidency was 2004 when G. W. Bush won with a 50.7% tally. Can you imagine how different this country could be if the popular vote determined the presidency?
I have one and a half teenagers interested in starting a blog. Anyone helped their kids start? Anyone using Micro.blog for that? Have any other resources to recommend? cc/ @manton
Bike workshop concluded. Problem was a tear in the valve stem itself, so I couldn’t demonstrate how to patch the tube. Then I realized my daughter’s bike is a 27.5” and my spare was a 26”, so I couldn’t even put a permanent fix. I finished the demo with 26 stretched a little.
Going to conduct a “how to change a bike tire/tube, and patch a flat” workshop for my kids. Somehow in the 12 years since any of them have had bikes, this is the first flat tire.

I am shocked that (a) they offered him the job, (b) that he took it. This could be very exciting, although I liked Berhalter (eventually) and Klinsmann, too: Mauricio Pochettino agrees to become USMNT head coach
I am a fan of anything with Hannah Ritchie in it. She’s so good at using data to show the urgency of the problem, but also that we are making progress on improving the climate on many fronts. youtu.be/3XNQFqUwC…
Good luck to LA in matching this. Paris seemed to have done a fantastic job stick job with the games. electrek.co/2024/08/1…
@jayroh I like the semi-transparent disc!
@jayroh amen
@gdp oh, that’s a bummer. Is this using the current iOS app (black icon) or the previous (gold) icon? That’s been a big issue this year in the community. Might be worth a post to r/Sonos for input if you’re a Reddit user. I’m curious if something is off in your TV source, or maybe Night Mode is on?
@jsonbecker I support this. It de-incentivizes me from sharing things from Amazon. (IG too, but I have uninstalled that already)
@gdp wow, that was not my experience. Have you run TruePlay on it yet?
@mikesusz I dare you to do it again!
