Pete, we know you’re a big softie inside.

Right. The Fediverse is the PBS of the social media.

“It’s made possible by people like you.” Is it worth a few dollars a month? Yes!

Yum! I’ll be right over!

I found this recipe for Chickpea Masala a few days ago, and it’s fucking delicious. Also, its time and effort is pretty low. I might be able to make it stoned. Not quite as fast and easy as microwaved, but pretty damn close. Faster than driving to fucking Applebee’s and getting a table.

Not OP, but what do you do with the leftover potato scoops? Do you save it for eating later?

100 active users, sorry

My local Madison insurance is forming a steering committee and has created an LLC. (I’m a member of the committee.) We will solicit donations, because mostly it has been one guy paying for a small regional instance of about 100 AU.

We think of it like public broadcasting, like PBS. I will be happy to kick in a few dollars per month to pay for it. We have contests, online meetups, and other fun. It’s not just Mastodon, it’s an active regional online community, and it’s worth it.

(I also donate to my Lemmy instance, because it’s worth it too!)

Are tomatoes a fruit?

We all know the right answer…

Insta-ban!

I just set up a paid account on Tuta today replacing my paid Proton account.

“Email is hard!”

I realize that Mastodon doesn’t track birthdays for security reasons, but it would be nice to have a “special day” that popped up in friends’ news feeds. It’s probably the nicest feature of FB, to get birthday wishes from friends.

They sign up on AOL or Yahoo Mail or Gmail. Or get an email address through their ISP.

“Here’s your address.” They use it.

“Wah wah it’s so hard to pick a server!”

JUST LIKE EMAIL YOU NITWIT!

An assertion like this requires proof!

Mastodon has third-party starter packs now. I wonder if it works for Pixelfed?

Storage costs keeps getting cheaper, but high quality video keeps taking up more space.

It tells you the right answer. It then it froze up and crashed my Fire TV.

Yes, it relies on federation. I don’t think the data will even be sent to instances unless someone follows you on that instance.
