patrick_h_lauke, to Halloween
@patrick_h_lauke@mastodon.social avatar

surprised that pagan festivities like #halloween are still allowed in the christo-fascist United States of America (tm)

accessamy,

@patrick_h_lauke
All those li'l bride costumes, though.

CORRECTED:

Hey, Pennsylvanians! Today is the last day to request a mail-in ballot before the November election. (October 31, 2023)

Ah, the “computers” section in used book stores.

accessamy,

@shawnhooper Gotta keep up with the latest!

tilvids, to Youtube
@tilvids@mstdn.social avatar

This is the latest #youtube "innovation". #Google with a market cap of $1.7 trillion and $120 billion cash on hand, "needs" to charge for ads on YouTube.

This is, of course, not true. They have more than enough revenue to run YouTube without ads in perpetuity, but they want to please shareholders. The #Peertube community is showing how you can distribute the costs of hosting content as well. If you don't support Google's continued monetization of monopolized video...vote with your feet.

#tech

accessamy,

@tilvids YT is unusable without an ad blocker.

    accessamy,

    @shawnhooper Wow, same. I think I bowed out after noticing I'd been sitting on a couple of unwatched movies for about 2 years.

    Way before Netflix, I subscribed to Home Film Festival (VHS!), which was very cool for someone with babies living far from all the things.

    accessamy,

    @shawnhooper I lived in the zone closest to their warehouse, so shipping costs were low. They had a great selection of indie and foreign films, so we weren't stuck with the local video store dreck.

    Cool tool shared by an attendee at WordPress Accessibility Day: Contrast Grid.

    "Test many foreground and background color combos for compliance with WCAG 2.0 minimum contrast."
    https://contrast-grid.eightshapes.com/

    Could be a great helper when building out a color palette.

    @chris You good?

    accessamy,

    @chris Nah, that's on you.

    accessamy,

    @chris Aw. At least tomorrow's something different.

    accessamy, to random

    That's hard news. Sigh.

    accessamy,

    @chris lol I absentmindedly didn't post this as a response to somebody else's sad news. No problems here except my attention span.

    accessamy,

    @chris And I'm grateful you're here with kind words for folks. :)

    COVID test recall issued by #Philadelphia Department of Public Health. They are a particular lot of Flowflex tests.

    "If the lot number [on the box] reads 'COV2110012,' officials say to throw the tests away and pick up replacements."

    A groundbreaker, a force of nature, a pioneer, a friend. We could make each other laugh and cry and laugh until we cried. Once we randomly met Little Richard in a hotel lobby. She shaped more of today’s web than you can imagine, unless you were there. There were none like her, and never will be again. Godspeed, Mols.

    accessamy,

    @Meyerweb Hard to imagine this world without the fierce force that was Molly. Sigh.

    How is it possible to be distracted from the extinction of the human race? Seriously.🙄

    accessamy,

    @StillIRise1963 Brain science. Dopamine. Bleh.

    accessamy,

    @StillIRise1963 Right? I mean what other species is like this, soiling the nest and leaving it like that.

    accessamy,

    @chris I'll have to put that on my list to read. I was always neutral on his music, but now I'm thinking about what he did to grow a large community that comes together around the value of things that aren't about productivity or conflict, kind of an antidote to "The American Way." Pretty cool.

    Final post-WordCamp COVID test today says I'm in the clear.
