Hi!
You should subscribe to me on Drip! https://d.rip/mark
Drip is a new tool for creators from Kickstarter (where I work) for creators and their communities.
I'm doing more and more of my online stuff there, and you can subscribe to my posts for $0 (that's free). Check it out - and even if you don't like me or my online stuff, there's other amazing creators on Drip, too!
I made an RSS Reader once. http://blog.multiplexer.me/post/54342680104/%CE%B1
You can now challenge someone to game of #chess over toots! https://castling.club/ 💪
It's actually a standalone server in the #fediverse, implementing #activitypub all by itself. 😃
This is a thing already, I've learned!
`iconv -f 437` will cover *most* of the use cases.
Is there a way you view cool ANSI art in your modern terminal?
If you are interested in establishing a way to verify that you are who you say you are on Mastodon, you can do that with https://keybase.io!
See: https://mastodon.social/@mw/1794288
With the keybase command line tool, sign a message that states your identity:
keybase sign -m 'I am @mw and wunsch on keybase'
Post that message.
You can verify someone else's message with:
keybase verify -m '...'
or piping it in like
message | keybase verify -i -
Now you know!
Today I learned about the Mayor’s Alliance for Feral Cats: http://animalalliancenyc.org/feralcats/
This looks neat and I'm glad it exists! https://fatconference.org/index.html
ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and
Transparency
"A multi-disciplinary conference that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in fairness, accountability, and transparency in socio-technical systems."
Their Call for Papers is open!
A while back, I massed unfollowed everyone on bird site and only followed brands and institutions I thought were interesting and I enjoyed it so much more.
I recommend it as an alternative to disabling your account altogether.
Who would have thought that *brands* would be the key to a more pleasant bird site experience?
