We had a thrilling afternoon at the newly remodeled Space Needle. 🤩
The floor is glass! The walls are glass! The benches are glass too.

oh that is very cool! It's been at least 15 years since I've been there so now I have a good excuse to visit again! -
If you ever find I boost your toot then immediately unboost it, it's because Mastodon refreshed the stream just as I was trying to open up a CW. 🤦♂️
God I hate the dynamic web. It's like opening up your refrigerator, reaching in to grab a bottle of orange juice, then just as your hand is about to grab it the bottle disappears and you smash your hand into half a dozen eggs instead.

There was already RDFa and microformats, but that wasn't enough, so Google put out microdata to go with http://schema.org... I fear open data and the web in general seems to be going downhill, these days. Just corporate silos, some of which have their proprietary APIs.

Get yourself a Mac... they just work. I think it has something to do with magic. :)
I actually run Windows in a VM just so that I can use Quickbooks Desktop. That is literally the only reason I use Windows.
In other news, I'm going to the Apple Store on Tuesday to get both of my Mac's keyboards replaced cause they're doubling up a bunch of keypresses. -
so this is how my afternoon is going

I think the idea that a new Mastodon user is supposed to pick an instance based on affinity/interest is the number one thing that prevents people from joining. I think there needs to be a retooling of the messaging to make it about trust.
People don't join email services because of affinity. They do because they trust. They trust Google will be around for a long time. Or that hushmail won't sell their data. Or that Hotmail is easy to use. Etc etc.

No more walled gardens! @chrisaldrich shows how the Webmentions standard smashes the walls between the internet’s many social silos, providing a new level of freedom, creativity, and context for modern web interactions.
