Hey, just a reminder or the evening crowd: I'm moving to @kistaro@dragon.style. See you there!

I’m moving my primary account to @kistaro@dragon.style - please re-follow me there if you want to keep following me.

(A bunch of people I follow here are moving to instances not federated with awoo.space)

@lizardsquid the closest thing I know of that Google announced is a ranking penalty for anything that doesn’t use HTTPS, in an effort to make browser connections more secure on average by poking web site operators into getting a certificate and turning on encryption even if they don’t handle credit cards.

Source: I work for Google as a software engineer on Chrome, which is also part of the HTTPS-everywhere push by labeling all unencrypted websites insecure

is Arby's just an incredibly Americanized gyro?

The thing I miss most from the Internet is how your handle used to be whatever you thought was cool when you were 14

I wish I was at a place in spiritual practice where I felt like I could pray to something for help because I feel in over my head in every aspect of my life

Anybody know of Discord bots for what amounts to storing/loading MUCK-style character descriptions? Full whospe support would be a plus

Today has been productive. I don't feel like that most weekends, so it's a nice change. I feel like I played a disappointing amount of video games today, but that's okay, there's an extra weekend day to go still. (although that one is going to involve a lot of writing. there should still be time for games though)

I have a tiny notebook full of notes on how I use tiny notebooks as a project/chaos management system! It’s notes, not a real presentation - I will be working on a web site to present this soon. So a legible version, better organized, with full explanations, will be available soon.

But for the curious: https://drive.google.com/open?id=15Bcwe-O9GFruLVh76XlR3JvFYbVxFuL0 (30MB PDF). It is self-describing, since it’s a notebook for a project to write a web site about how I write notebooks about projects!

Two days of furious scribbling have left me with a tiny notebook full of preliminary notes on how I use tiny notebooks for thinking into at work and otherwise storing ideas. Next up: follow my own directions and scan the notebook, then write the website. A PDF of the notebook itself will be available soon (before the web site is)

turntablism is like a Cirque du Soleil-grade juggling act, juggling music

Bought a few canned air dusters, cleaning out the crashy gaming computer, it’s like a snowstorm of dust bunnies out on the patio back here. I should dust my other one too...

I think after poking around at Wix, Weebly, Sway, and Squarespace, I’m going to just use Google Sites. I just want an article in the format of a responsive website, I’m not an actual web site designer and I don’t want to be.

I have too much content to write to feel like it fits in Dreamwidth- it needs at least basic navigation and better handling of images than I can do myself with Dreamwidth’s tools.

This weekend, I’m going to create a *something* on my thorough-but-not-difficult system for taking and sort-of-organizing notes (work projects, daily to-do items, thought debris) via dozens of tiny notebooks. I’d like feedback on what format the something should be in:

* formatted text with images (Dreamwidth.org)
* modern scrolling article (Microsoft Sway)
* slideshow (Google Slides)
* unconventional slideshow (please recommend a tool)
* scans of handwritten notes from a tiny notebook

@salameleon it’s almost like federation as a means of keeping a user population small enough for a group of engaged administrators to deal with is actually workable or something :D
