Coining the term "Info-baiting". Like "rage-bait", but for triggering info-dumps. 😈
Who needs podcasts when you can just interview any random nerd on their particular interests?

On the fediverse, posts rarely go viral. But at times, they will go "fungal", like mycelium quietly working its way through the substrate, popping up again like mushrooms every few months to make another quick round before going dormant again.

Resistance can be as simple as using certain terms:
"online video" instead of "YouTube video".
"online search" instead of "Google Search" (or "do a search" instead of "google it".)
"music playlist" instead of "Spotify playlist".
Do not give these company any free advertising by using their names.
Do not make them the default term for something.
Nothing makes me lose faith in humanity faster than social media comments. Especially anything related to space. It's like people try their hardest to say the stupidest shit possible. Probably also the algorithm trying to ragebait me by surfacing them above reasonable comments.

When writing alt text for an image of text, it's not enough to just write "screen shot of text from article." Sighted users get to know what is in that screen shot, so why don't blind users deserve the same? The alt text should include all the actual text in the image.

Me drinking a double espresso in the afternoon: Hahaha yes! Yeah!!
Me being completely incapable of falling asleep at night: Well this sucks. What the fuck.

Would folks be into using a minimal markdown based #dweb site publishing platform with basic color scheme customization? Thinking of making it easy to pull CC licensed gifs in the text editor with a live preview of the theme.
What I thought was my CPU fan going crazy was just low volume techno. 🤪

The QR codes it prints are too small to store a full URL. Maybe I can find a model which can print larger sizes. Probs gonna try some clothes this weekend
Finally unpacked the handheld printer thing I got and OMG it literally prints on everything and is super easy to use.
