@emptywheel Wall-of-text-screenshots really suck for mobile users. Please do better.

@emptywheel Assuming you mean “what”, and for your website, just OCR images to quote them in your article.

If you mean for president, pretty much anyone further to the left. Preferably a social democrat (or better).

How do podcasters feel about apps inserting ads in their #podcast?

@cisene So you say the podcasters get a piece of what eg. Castro.app make from inserting ads for some audiobook store, and this is an opt-in deal?

At Nancy Fest this weekend, a celebration of the comic strip Nancy’s heyday under Ernie Bushmiller (1905–1982, produced strip 1925–1982), Ernie's late-in-life best friend Jim Carlsson attended and was consulted (sometimes live from stage) for more details about Ernie! A dapper gent whom Ernie and his wife, Abby—who had no children—relied on in their later years, and now an antiques appraiser, he was able to express how much he knew Ernie would have loved it.

I really like #ZorinOS, and I'd love to be able to recommend it to new Linux users!

But on my moms laptop it does not have any sound. And now I had to install Chromium (because fuck DNB, Norways largest bank that just won't let anyone log in with Firefox for a week because why fix bugs, amirite?), and in that app the input was set to English, even though she only has Norwegian input system wide...!

Computers was a mistake. Let's go back to counting on abacuses.

@forteller Why am I not surprised to learn that in the > ten years since I last time I wanted to run Linux as an everyday OS, sound is still an issue.

Hey @MonaApp how about adding rot13 crypt/decrypt in the app? Even behind spoiler warnings, some reveals should be able to be seen by choice.
Think even 20-30 year old Usenet clients had this.

With the war in #Ukraine stretching into a third year and the rich getting accustomed to the idea that Russian citizens are no longer welcome in the West, the tried-and-true playbook for transferring fortunes has been effectively vanquished. Even #Cyprus and #Switzerland — some of the favorite spots of old — have introduced bans on providing management services to family trusts with Russian nationals as trustors or beneficiaries.

@hanse_mina Someone should probably look in to the sudden boom of filthy rich Russians overtaking all the luxury condos in Phuket and Pattaya bit by bit. I’m told you can’t walk outside for 5 minutes without hearing a Russian yelling at his “girlfriend”. Yeah, more than a few of those are ransomware-guys, but those don’t account for all of the recent arrivals.

    There’s an account I follow and can read just fine in @ivory , but that I can not see posts from in @MonaApp (can read bio, but no posts, and I also see @ replies to them ). Now I’m wondering if I’m blocked, but ivory fails at blocking, or if I’ve shot myself in the foot with all my filters in Mona.
    I can’t see a reason for that person to block, as I never interacted directly with them, but also don’t want to be the “I demand to know why” person, so won’t ask.

    Your regular reminder that @JoeBiden is an . We can disagree with him over Gaza, the border, or 230 and that's the point--unlike the authoritarians The Times loves to poll, we do disagree, we do not worship, we debate. The Times can't understand that.

    @jeffjarvis It’s not only the NYT, and he should be aware of that. Refusing to listen to his voters on this matter is down to him.

    The fucking Times. It follows up yesterday's awful poll with another. That they even asked this question is evidence of the bias--the agenda--in their poll. Who made age an "issue"? The credulous Times falling into the right-wing's projection. This is not journalism. Shameful.
