As mentioned, it’s time to clear out my Address Book. I used to be quite diligent about recording notes about how I met someone in my network, or when we had last spoken, or my overall impression of them. Mostly this was so I could search on some characteristic and hopefully remember the person if […]
There are so many cool platforms to try out!
A compilation of the second set of World-Building Prompt themes and questions for the World-Building Prompts account on Blacksky.
Ein Einblick der 'TAZ" in das kürzlich veröffentlichte Essay von Mark Zuckerberg. Post by @tazgetroete@mastodon.social View on Mastodon
Es ist schon ziemlicher Wahnsinn, was sich die Big-Tech Oligarchen alles so für Sachen ausdenken, und welchen Sinn in dem Fall diese Brillen haben. Man kann nur philosophieren.... noch mehr Daten sammeln vielleicht ... mhhh, wer weiß. Fakt ist aber, dass es bestimmt niemandem gefällt, irgendwo klangheimlich gefilmt zu werden. Daher teile ich gern diese...
The State Library of NSW has an interesting event coming up on Sept 1st about how libraries are handling the problem of archiving digital records. I wondered about this myself. In the past famous people would leave “their papers” to historians and archivists, but very few of us have papers anymore. What would I leave […]
Since Echofeed is shutting down, I’m trialling a few alternatives. My goal for a while now has been to make my blog the central repository for what I share online and then syndicate* it out to other platforms. I have an RSS feed, of course, and with Echofeed I would use that to share my […]
Es reißt nicht ab.... Die Meldungen zu Verhandlungen um Metas Geschäftspraktiken sind aktuell fast täglich in Umlauf. Erst kürzlich gab es eine recht dicke Strafe mit direkter Ansage! Metas Netzwerke sind vergleichbar mit allgemeiner Belästigung und schädlich für die Gemeinschaft, heißt es im Urteil eines Prozesses in Sante Fe / New Mexico. Siehe Artikel Geldstrafe...
For all the talk of "reforming" or "repealing" Section 230 in Congress, the fact is that the courts over the past three or four years have effectively chipped away so steadily at the law that it's lost a significant chunk of its usefulness. The latest comes from the Ninth Circuit, which ruled earlier this week...
Putting two projects into the archive
Explaining why Bibliograph is being built and how it can benefit the ATProto ecosystem
Earlier this year, following the initial verdict in the state of New Mexico's case against Meta (arguing that Meta caused harm to children by doing things like encrypting messages), we noted that even if you believe that Meta is a terrible company (as I do), that Mark Zuckerberg cannot be trusted (ditto), and that the...

Last month we reported how Meta had decided to try and sloppily nickel-and-dime its AI glasses customers. More specifically, the company decided it would be a good idea to introduce new “rate limits” to smart glasses usage, forcing customers to pony up a $20 per month Meta One Premium subscription if they didn't want their...
Talking shop about Livtet, a alpha release date and its system
Guess I need help from the @furryli.st crew and the rest of the fandom on running this weekly newsletter.

tl;dr: We're moving to every-other-week publication schedule as we're switching gears towards the weekly furry fandom digest at Atmospheric Furry Radar.
I am doing field reporting on the niche of mixtaping music as amateur DJ to myself as an electro music enjoyer while autistic.
Admit you, you probably see this coming when of just shipped Notes in limited public beta and signed up anyways. (If you really want to try the beta, just reply in the Bluesky thread for the request access flow.) Anyways, here's my first Pckt miniblog post note for context along the lines of I Wouldn’t Tell Anyone I Won The Lottery, But There Will Be Signs: (actually my first ever Pckt note is me replying to Brookie's rant about using AI slop on blog post thumbnails / cover photos about adding a...
First post on the new site. Talking about the redesign and what to expect.
still working out the kinks, so apologies if some bsky posts originating here look odd 💜
How I added standard.site support to this lil ol blog
The first post on vibecode.rodeo.
Muss man bei instagram sein, um als Fotograf wirklich gesehen zu werden? Vielleicht, denn da spielt offenbar die Musik, wenn man seine Bekannten aus dem echten Leben "bespaßen" bzw. erreichen will. Auch scheinen sich viele Fotografen (auch die professionellen) damit abgefunden zu haben, dass man auf instagram präsent zu sein hat und nehmen zähneknirschend hin,...
mostly good, some bad
standard.site, leaflet.pub, and why we write in 2026
Summary of the past 6 or so months
description of how this website worked in the pre-standard days
In March 2026, Meta launched an AI-powered support chatbot for Instagram. It promised "solutions, not just suggestions" — automated account recovery, 24/7, no wait.
Two prompt-injection incidents show why agent security is about permission boundaries, not better instructions.
Today is June 1. It is also Monday. With that, I present our first-ever collection of June Pook-Emu Bee links after a brief photography interlude.

This is a test of the "notes"/microblog system that I've set up, mainly just to have a way to quickly send out something like a thought or a quick reaction without having it be conflated with any longer-form posts that could come later and which I want to have on hand for any future reference.
My journey to find community outside of Facebook and Instagram.
First post. The blog exists.
I've decided to migrate my blog to a WordPress instance, mainly to motivate myself into writing more actively and for portability reasons. I've deleted the only post that was on here before as it sucks, it's probably on the Internet Archive. More stuff soon :)
On returning to writing, ditching the platforms, and what ATproto makes possible.
Det finns en mängd programvaror och instanser i Fediversum som görs och drivs av kommersiella företag. Inkomstkällorna är i allmänhet reklam men det är inte alltid som reklamen förekommer i samband med Fediversuminstansen
Starting a daily newsletter. What I've been doing, what I've learned, how to interact with this.
Aunque nunca quise darle importancia, este blog ha tenido estadísticas casi siempre. Pero un día, hace no muchos meses, se volvieron locas. Ya no puedo saber si leéis o no, más allá de lo que veo compartirse por Mastodón. ¿Qué ha podido pasar?
First post. Self-hosted ATProto PDS, a blog, and a little bit of federated presence.
