@thegibson I’ve done the small individual step of deleting my (already dormant) .social account because of this & E’s recent explicitly stated desire to make Mastodon more influential.

Aside from being a bad take on federated social networking, it’s a likely path to glossing over bad decisions for the greater goal of influence. Such as — you know — EUnomia.

Since he’s showing himself to be unreliable, defederating seems needed. Don’t know what he’ll do with data that hits .social. Also important to completely break from his code as upstream dependency. Fork? Platform shift? Dunno. What about defederating from other Masto instances that keep using his code?

$13.75 for Tim Tams seems pricey but I wouldn’t know.

Reminding myself there were several other things I wanted to do before starting the rust book.

Missed the thread first time here but caught it when a friend shared on Facebook. Start with the great questions, stay for the supportive conversations that followed.

Right a thing on my task list that I’ll get to this week: Mastodon -> Twitter pipe, so I don’t feel compelled to notice that other site so often.

Niche network randomness: MeWe successfully imported all of my G+ posts, but with many duplicate images.

So naturally my brain started pondering how to import (some of) those posts into my Web site instead. An interesting puzzle.

Brief regret I didn’t build this instance of Vim with Perl support. Oh well, I can pipe for now and reinstall later.

Nicest thing about having a friend from England visit is someone else in the bar knows the lyrics to Blur “Boys and Girls”

I got called “Young Dumbledore” by a new friend tonight, which – you know – it could be worse.
