It's not a "problem" Dr. Sprague, she's just not that into you
Apparently there's a queer zine (https://anewsession.com/) that's only available over telnet! 404 media did a story about it (https://www.404media.co/queer-online-zine-new-session-telnet/) which is how I found it.
You can access it at `telnet issue3.anewsession.com` (or issue1/issue2), and they also have web links to a telnet emulator if you want to read it in the browser.

god I hate proprietary software in the best of times but all this sparkly AI button shit is really pissing me off
"When AI is used ethically it can have great benefits in the realm of conservation. By completing time consuming and repetitive tasks, it allows us to focus on more pressing issues that need innovation and problem solving that only humans can do."

This scientific use is different to what we know as popular "AI".

This post explores the enduring challenge in software programming of how to pass invisible contextual information, such as loggers or request contexts, through applications without cumbersome explicit parameter passing. It examines various approaches throughout history, including dynamic scoping, aspect-oriented programming (AOP), context variables, monads, and effect systems. Each method offers a unique solution, from the simplicity of dynamic scoping in early Lisp to the modularity of AOP and the type-safe encoding of effects in modern functional programming. The post highlights the trade-offs of each approach, such as the unpredictability of dynamic scoping or the complexity of monad transformers. It also touches on how context variables are used in modern asynchronous and parallel programming, as well as in UI frameworks like React. The author concludes by noting that the art of passing the invisible is an eternal theme in software programming, and this post provides valuable insights into the evolution and future directions of this critical aspect of software architecture.

There is a Fediverse reminder bot which you can use to remind you about a particular thread after a specified time period (it can be minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or years later).
To use the bot, reply to the post or thread you want reminding about, mentioning the bot's account with the amount of time you want. More info and instructions in the guide:

Miss Tumblr after leaving big social? Well, Fediverse has its own Tumblr, and it's called Wafrn. It still seems small and unknown, so spread the word to those fedifriends of yours who long for Tumblr.

my old TEAC cd player broke the other day. it was the hottest day of the year. the voltage rails were all fine. but no clock on any of the digital board components. power/standby worked but nothing would come to life. it was a nice CD player though. so i bought an identical model. it arrived today. the weather is a lot cooler now, way less warm than it was last week. i switch on the old broken CD player one last time. works fine. no issues. what the hell do i do with two identical CD players

I have zero sympathy for people who lost their homes due to cliff erosion or are about to soon. You knew perfectly well what you were risking when you bought a house teetering on the edge of a cliff. You have only yourself and your stupid decision-making "skills" to blame.

this is incredibly thoughtful, and while that it's about religion might turn some off (It makes it a bit hard for me, to be honest), the broader picture about where you put effort when you're trying to accomplish things, the humility of being introspective rather than blaming... it's good imho
Wrapped up a good set of conversations around how civic institutions can support the #fediverse (along with some challenging / robust discussions around filter bubbles, polarisation, usability etc). Now heading back to London.
