I watch new eps of Castaway Diva and season two of The Gilded Age every week. Castaway Diva is a super soap operaish kdrama and sometimes the plot devices are so unbelievable I roll ny eyes but the characters are cute. The Gilded Age has beautiful sets and costumes and the plot is okay but the acting is terrible (with a few exceptions).

I’ve also been churning thru The Expanse, which was recommended by someone on Beehaw. it’s pretty good, kind of hard to connect with the characters but interesting plot.

this is why diversity initiatives are important. a team of all white dudes is gonna have some blind spots

I have a Samsung as well. It’s quite old and in order to print I have to:

1. press print
2. wait for it to try and fail
3. turn it off and then on
4. press print again
5. push the paper in right as it’s trying to grab (otherwise it won’t grab any).

If I don’t follow all these steps it won’t print. I bought a 2 pack of toner, though, so I am not allowed to get a new one until I use it all, which will take forever since I rarely print because it’s such a pain.

I wish I had one of these to cancel the fireworks in my neighborhood that have been going off all week into the night

Oh yea I remember looking at some sort of spreadsheet of instances that had stats like users and uptime and stuff to pick one.

“Well, even if Threads abandoned ActivityPub down the line, where we would end up is exactly where we are now. XMPP did not exist on its own outside of nerd circles, while ActivityPub enjoys the support and brand recognition of Mastodon”

Didn’t all those pundits say only tech nerds can figure Mastodon out?

Threads got 2 mil signups in 2 hours…

I mostly watch Kdramas but I have watched a couple CDramas and Thai Dramas. What are you watching right now? I just started the KDrama Twenty-Five Twenty-One, which is set in the late 1990’s during the IMF Crisis.

For real. I remember when I quit Facebook I stopped getting invited to things because people would just make FB events and call it good. Like close friends wouldn’t even realize I didn’t know about an event. Even now there’s an outdoor events group I wanted to join but they only organize on Facebook and I don’t want to make an account.

I’m just thinking about going to the movie rental place and trying to pick something to watch. The stakes were way higher back then.

oh wow I have not heard of the ceramic ones but I do remember them having high hopes for the gold ones. now the problem is in the near future it might be harder to find machines that have cd drives

during the twitter exodus my friend was fretting over not being able to access a beloved twitter account’s tweets and wanting to save them somehow. I told her if she printed them all on acid free paper she had a better chance of being able to access them in the future than trying to save them digitally
