Micropost

    Any time I see bright but subtle gradients in web design it gives me flashbacks of sticking a magnet to an old CRT monitor

    You ever publish something in the middle of the night when it’s nowhere close to ready?

    Yeah, haha me neither πŸ₯΄

    The amount of claims labeled satire that snopes.com even has to publish really puts the state of big social media into perspective

    Starting out on Micro.blog after using regular social media for years is like going through digital detox. At first it’s quiet and feels pointless because you aren’t getting internet points, then next thing you know you’re annoyed that you can’t turn all of that stuff off everywhere else.

    Screenshot of a Google AI summary of what order to play through Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. At the bottom, there’s a description of the game and I’ve highlighted the section where it says “Echoes of Wisdom is a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening.

    I know LLMs hallucinate but Google’s AI is straight up Hallucination as a Service πŸ˜†

    I’m not a programmer but I think our diy monolithic point of sales/literally everything to do with the company software that stores everything in excel spreadsheets and gets beamed out to a bunch of Windows 7 thin clients is probably not the greatest or most secure way to do business

    I’ve been using the new Reeder for a while now. Started back when it was TestFlight only and then bought the one year subscription when it was out of beta. It’s really polished and well done but I think I prefer having seperete apps for my feeds and social media. It’s too much having it all in one

    My favorite things about omg.lol so far have definitely been the community itself and the little statuslog thing you can embed. I scrapped the idea of starting another blog over there just for the sake of starting another blog. Although I do like how it’s all set up. But Micro.blog already does everything I need it to do. Just the wrong timing on my part, I think. At $20 a year, it’s worth it just for the statuslog and mastodon server imo

    Micro.blog and the Tiny Theme are a powerful combination

    7/11’s seltzer water is much cuter than Liquid Death

    A can of 7/11 brand Lemon & Lime sparkling water. The backdrop of the can is white with yellow and green text. It has some cute doodle art like a little duck, a lemon, and a smiling sun. There's a cheap decorative rug in the background.

    I’m pretty good at starting a post, going off on a tangent and then forgetting what I was even writing about in the first place

    I was originally planning on making my root domain a static landing page/hub kinda thing but I changed it back to my Micro.blog site since I’m most active here. Instead of an about page, I added a link in my nav to the “hub” subdomain where my socials, bio and a longform blog live on omg.lol.

    I really liked this video essay. The author draws parallels between simulation theory and our always connected, perpetually online world.

    I like the brutalist feel of omg.lol 😌

    I’m always a little overwhelmed switching DNS records around and changing the design of stuff but it’s exciting too. Gives me a little project to work through and keep me occupied for a while. It gets boring after a while when everything works perfect and there’s nothing to do but write!

    Started restructuring my site and messing around with DNS settings again. Stuff might be a little wonky until I get that all sorted out o.O

    You can never have too many markdown editors

    You know what I hate about YouTube’s algorithm? Any time you hit the Back button or end up on the home page after watching something, it populates with videos and after three or four seconds it re-loads the entire page with different videos. You will never find the one you were about to watch o.O

    I thought I would dive into omg.lol a lot quicker but I think it’s going to be one of those weekend project kinda things. I’m not sure what vision I have for it at the moment, if any. I like it a lot though. Too much not to set something up there. I just have to figure out what that’s going to be πŸ€”

    I like being able to put my icons wherever I want on iOS 18 but it’s a nightmare trying to reorganize them sometimes πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«
