Since I'm on a new instance, I might as well do an updated #introduction, right?Name's Jason. I run `simian.rodeo`. Simian Rodeo is a modest instance that I am (carefully) trying to fill up with pleasant people.My wife Sarah and I live in #Bakersfield, CA with a pack of small dogs. It's a pretty nice life, TBH.I enjoy films, #WordPress, consuming and creating podcasts, #Simpsons memes, #WebPerf, democratic socialism, the #Lakers, and the #Dodgers.

Elon buying Twitter is to #Mastodon as Movable Type’s licensing debacle was to #WordPress.

If you run more than a couple #WordPress sites, you might've already seen the auto-update emails starting to roll in. Or maybe you haven't yet.Either way, WordPress 6.1.1 just dropped.Don't worry tho. There's no security patches in this update. Just bug fixes.https://wordpress.org/news/2022/11/wordpress-6-1-1-maintenance-release/

@shadowfacts I always assumed that Quicksilver (and other application launchers from the early aughts) paved the way for command palettes.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicksilver_(software)

I'm thinking it's finally time to stop using old MacBooks as home servers and either get a NUC or build a mini-ITX server. 🤔

First time I’ve ever seen this warning before being allowed to see a GitHub repo.

@seldo Oh yeah. It's horrible. Blocked them a few days after I spun up my instance.P.S. If you want to stay ahead of the assholes, @moderation is a solid follow.

Having the confidence to say “I don't know” is a fucking superpower.

My favorite part about backing @pluralistic’s Kickstarter projects is that he practically has everything ready to ship *before* opening up pledges.The process usually goes like this:1. I find out Cory has a new book coming out.2. I go back the ePub/Audiobook on Kickstarter.3. Roughly six weeks later, it's sitting on my devices. ♥️/me glares at that dumb gadget that I backed in 2015 that hasn't posted an update since 2018 (and I don't even want anymore)https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/doctorow/the-internet-con-how-to-seize-the-means-of-computation

Given everything that’s been going on in the #WordPress community lately, I thought that I’d put this out there…

Pulled a HDD out of a 2006 MacBook to get at the stuff on it. Kind of shocked at how easy it was. Like three screws and a pull tab easy.On that drive is the "last good" version of my music library from ~2010. I started using iTunes Match shortly after it became available, and honestly, that's when everything started to go to hell. :melting_sweat:
