Twitter acquired Scroll.com
This doesn't align with their audience, methinks. Scroll's audience is people that want to support & consume journalism without ads. Being acquired by a company supported by ads is counter to that audience. Paycheck's gonna paycheck, I guess 😕

Lots of anti-bird posting on my TL today. Need I remind you that
• RAVENS will take pieces of bark and literally WIND-SURF on thermal updrafts in the mountains
• HONEYGUIDES are so named because they will guide humans to beehives containing DELICIOUS HONEY
• GREATER BLACK-BACKED GULLS can swallow a WHOLE RABBIT without chewing
All this (and more) just goes to show that birds are
• cool as hell
• helpful and friendly
• but most importantly, if YOU choose to mess with them, they CAN and WILL fuck you up
So please think twice before you disrespect birds on this federated verse! 🙏

hey all, here's a new computer thing I made! it's called the Nonsense Laboratory, and it's a series of weird little tools for manipulating the spelling and sound of words with machine learning: https://artsexperiments.withgoogle.com/nonsense-laboratory/
it's part of a series of projects launched yesterday showing the outcomes of the Artists + Machine Intelligence grant program, which you can learn more about here: https://experiments.withgoogle.com/ami-grants

this has been asked numerous times but what's the best way to run a website in 2021 that is
1. low cost
2. mutual aid friendly
3. easy to maintain and manage by a non-technical user

These Basecamp company changes are dripping with white, male privilege: https://world.hey.com/jason/changes-at-basecamp-7f32afc5
I had to learn how to redact a portion of the screen (list of passwords) at a specific time with ffmpeg to make this. 😅
I learned that 1Password on macOS can support native app passwords if you set the password's "Website" as the app's bundle identifier (like com.apple.TextEdit). If you create a password while the app is active, it will add the identifier for you.
