Mycroft and Bad Timing
If you’ve been reading this page for any length of time, you’ve seen me post more than once about Mycroft. At the end of January, Mycroft CEO Michael Lewis let us in on what’s pretty much the end of Mycroft. There were a variety of factors that finally did Mycroft in, but in my opinion the biggest of those facts was just poor timing.
RSS and Mastodon
As someone who approves account requests on Fosstodon, I see a lot of people who are requesting an account to “Follow some person on Mastodon.” I can see where you’d want an account to do that, but if you’re just interested in following someone and not participating by posting, there’s a much easier way.
Back From Vacation
The title says it all. I’m back.
Playing with the Front Matter Extension
Based on the recommendation of David Wynn over on Fosstodon to Kev, I’m trying out the Front Matter “CMS”.
Complaints About Calendars
I think it’s pretty obvious that calendars are super useful. I’m not talking about the kind of calendars you hang from your wall either. I’m talking the digital kind. The kind you have on your phone. Or on your computer. Or as part of your browser. Or as part of a million other things. And therein lies the problem.
The TalkSocket Has Arrived!
Quite a while ago, I ordered a TalkSocket. I can’t even remember when at this point. It’s been two years maybe? Today it finally arrived.
Retiring Twitter But Not Really
I’m sure most people that have found their way here know about the turmoil that’s been effecting Twitter lately. I know there are a lot of people that have strong feelings about it one way or another, but it’s never really been an issue for me since I stopped using Twitter in any real way years ago. Today I thought I might retire my Twitter accounts, but not really.
Finally Some Time Off
I notified own of my coworkers that I was signing off a little early today. The clock hadn’t even struck four o’clock in the afternoon, and I was done. Finally, some time off.
More On The Mycroft Mark II
Not long ago, I published my initial impressions of the Mycroft Mark II after I did a quick setup in a hotel room. Quick warning, I’m probably going to have several more posts as I discover new things about this device and new features become available.
