Nice! So let’s test the theory.

If you are *not* using Ivory as your Masto app, do you see this as a quote post now?

god damn it in 2026 I need to STOP finishing sentences with "...or something", "...I think", or "...stuff like that".

it's time to be CONFIDENTLY WRONG

If you're running Windows and still using WinImage for handling basic floppy disk images, it is time to retire it. It served us well, but there is now a replacement called DiskImageTool that is superior in every conceivable way and is completely free and open source.

The latest version adds a small drag & drop feature I requested, and it's just the final touch that makes it a perfect replacement for me.

"Is “People aren’t paying attention” just a dressed-up version of “People aren’t paying attention to me?

The suspicion that all this is élite anxiety in the face of a democratizing mediascape deepens when you consider what the attentionistas want people to focus on. ...When someone calls for audiences to be more patient, I instinctively think, Alternatively, you could be less boring."

An excellent piece by Daniel Immerwahr from last year.

Have you ever noticed that the food graphics in Super Smash Bros. and Kirby Air Riders is flat “billboarded” stock images of food? This artistic decision from director Masahiro Sakurai has persisted through 8 games over nearly 25 years.

While researching every game with this art style and all 150+ unique food images I ended up fixing wikis, reviewing a seasonal KitKat flavor, and preserving an uncatalogued image of tempura soba.

engaging stakeholders? you mean like buffy the vampire slayer?

RE: https://me.dm/@anildash/115844846912829876

All of this resonated for me, but I think this is important to keep hold of, as well:

"One of the great gifts of working in technology is that it’s given so many of us the habit of constantly learning, of always being curious and paying attention to the new things worth discovering."

It really can be a gift, and that's worth thinking about.

Mastodon's verification system is mainly for people and organisations who who have their own website. It makes your Mastodon profile's link to your website turn green, proving you are the owner of the site.

Here's how to verify your account:

➡️ https://fedi.tips/how-do-i-verify-my-account

If you've tried doing this and it didn't work, see the troubleshooting section of the guide ("My website address won’t turn green!") as there are lots of possible ways you might fix it.

Something I like about #mastodon and the #fediverse as a whole is how it highlights the importance of community. A lot of these server owners are running these servers out of pocket because they love the idea of supporting a community. It takes all of us to keep the fediverse running, so don't forget to donate to your smaller servers as well!

Always a good time to start your own blog. And if you're worried about not having anything interesting to write about, here's a story I like to share when that comes up.

"A funny thing happens with history in that the most mundane, ubiquitous parts of daily life are the things that we've kind of lost the most because nobody wrote about them."

@dolmengi Die meisten Hunde sind auch nett. Dennoch muss nicht jeder Hund Kontakt zu jedem haben, den er zufällig trifft. Ich will ja auch nicht Kontakt zu jedem Menschen den ich treffe. Im Gegenteil! Und Hund die angestürmt kommen sind vor allem eins: unhöflich! Meine Hunde sind auch beide unsicher und möchten das nicht. Und sie sollten das auch nicht aushalten müssen.

I’ve been doing Hungryroot every other week for a few months and I feel like I’m going to stick with it for the foreseeable future unlike Hello Fresh because I feel like it’s actually helping me lose weight, it makes it super easy to meal plan, I get to customize every item (not just meal but each item) in my order if I want, I often get grocery items that last multiple weeks not tiny portions just for that meal, and I like that they include vegan items and items from minority owned businesses
