@aaronpk One of the versions of this inside Twitter for a while was named “voices”, which I always liked the feel of. Being able to follow either an entire account or specific channels has some interesting utility, for sure.
ohh did this get prototyped but never shipped? I think it'd be really interesting for sure! The good news is we can just do this on the web instead! -

One interesting thing to explore with having my own domain on here is being able to separate create utility accounts strongly associated with my name. @blog, as a very simple initial example.
Ages ago I built a social network that worked like that! You could create categories under your account and people could follow all or some of them. I called them "channels" then.

@aaronpk probably knows some folks there rather than a generic news feed
oof yeah that's tough, a side effect of the low tech activation key mechanism they use. I can reach out to my contacts to help if you'd like tho. -

@aaronpk since putting on Schwalbe Marathon I had not a single puncture, I can highly recommend those
Thanks I might have to try that next -

I’ve long since given in to the luxury of allowing a specialist to fix my bike tires. The walk-up window at @SellwoodCycle has 100% spoiled me…
Yeah this may be the answer 😬 Until about last year I always went to a bike shop if I had a flat. Barely ever had flats. Replaced my tubes three times this year and got a flat again shortly after each time. I am clearly not cut out to be a bike mechanic. -

So far today is going great. I tried to fix my bike's flat tire and it went flat again an hour later. And now my external SSDs aren't mounting which is making it very hard to do work.
Can I call in a "technical difficulties day"? It's like a sick day but for my stuff.
The nice part of replacing my tube twice in one day means I'm getting faster at disassembling and reassembling the whole rear wheel on the Brompton. Took only 18 minutes the second time!
Maybe I should schedule monthly sessions to keep practicing. -

@aaronpk When I get back-to-back flats like what you reported, I spend like, 15 minutes thoroughly inspecting the tire for embedded metal/glass/thorns. Sometimes they can hide incredibly well and don’t poke their pokey bits out until the tire is inflated. So, lots of flexing and feeling around the inside of the tire.
I will do that. Last time the flat was on the seam of the tube. This time it was on the side. Could be a pinch flat, since it had been a couple weeks since I last pumped up my tires.
