Future WordCamps (especially the large ones) should take notes from how @xoxo is handling their programming because this is incredibly thoughtful. ♥️

I honestly don't want to spend the rest of my day futzing around with config files, so has anyone got a .wezterm.lua they like with sane defaults?

May the last command you type in iTerm2 be brew install --cask wezterm.

Heads up: You’ll totally have to pirate this new Nic Cage live-action Spider-Man show because it's on a service (MGM+) that nobody pays for.

Just came to this quote in “A People’s History of the United States” and thought it worth sharing — even though May Day is almost over.

“If the workers of the world want to win, all they have to do is recognize their own solidarity. They have nothing to do but fold their arms and the world will stop. The workers are more powerful with their hands in their pockets than all the property of the capitalists.”

— Joseph Ettor

Reminder: It’s not too late to either sign (or ask your server admin to sign) #fedipact.

If your instance won’t sign on, find a smaller instance that already has. There’s a list of a few hundred listed over on the fedipact site. 😉

We don’t need the “flagship” instances that will put up with the corporate colonization of this beautiful network that we’ve all built together.

Oh, nice! Dark Visitors (a list of known AI crawlers) has a #WordPress plugin that'll update your robots.txt whenever a new bot gets added to their collection.

It'll even let you pick the types of crawlers that you want to block.

This Martha Wells lecture about #Murderbot is very good and worth your time.

Wireless earbuds with ANC and replaceable batteries?!

You know, my AirPods Pro recently developed a bit of a rattle in the left earbud and I have been thinking about replacements… 🤔

We didn't like any of the other #WordPress spaces — corporate bootlicking, toxic positivity, shitty people, tolerance of racists, neoliberalism — so we made our own. 🧷

Fellow #Descript users: Have any of y'all noticed the transcription getting worse?

The last few podcast episodes I've edited have had long gaps with no detected speech where people are clearly speaking. It’s annoying.

I bought a copy of Kyle Kinane's new special “Dirt Nap" and it came with a few “share it with a friend" promo codes that make the price of the special $0.

I've given a couple away already, but I have two more to share. If you're interested and need a laugh, hit me up and I'll DM you one.

Just realized that my #WordPress development strategy is to make a bunch of smallish plugins that do one thing adequately.

I could make it so they do one thing well, but c’mon… let's not get carried away. :melting_sweat:

Trying to come up with a honeypot service that redirects any AI crawlers that visit a site to HEAVY Scots English translations of the posts and pages that it thinks that it's scraping.

@ivory Any chance y’all could add @omnivore to your list of Read Later services? ♥️

Hey #WordPress pals: If you were designing the WXR¹ format today, what would you do differently? What do you think is missing from the current spec?

Since it's no longer 2004, would you do the whole thing in JSON instead? Would you package images in with the post content like TextBundle?

I want to hear some big ideas. Go nuts!

¹ The WordPress import/export file, based on RSS.

Friendly reminder: If you find yourself absolutely needing to share a post from Chris, Jairaj, and Hamish's Nazi Haven (#Substack) it only adds another minute to ask https://archive.today to grab a fresh copy for you so you can link there instead and not give them any additional traffic.
