An anonymous internet is highly valuable; a pseudonymous internet is highly valuable; a named internet is highly valuable.
Attempting to regulate these 3 Internets as if they are the same is ultimately futile.
https://www.pcgamer.com/valve-steam-deck-oled-announcement/ reports Valve making a OLED Steam Deck. I'm pretty happy with mine, the lowest model of the second batch. Frankly, it's not "just" a console to me, it's a whole separate computer that I have to maintain (but in a kinda fun way and with a journaled file system so rolling back is easy).
For more causal folk, this might be the model they've been waiting for. A brighter screen, more power and it's lighter? (https://jacky.wtf/2023/11/mOe5)
In today's #NaBloPoMo article I wrote about my experience of the misjudged emails I received from AirBnB earlier this year, and the impact that had.

Redocly CLI is a brilliant new tool from the folks who made ReDoc, the first beautiful API reference documentation tool powered by OpenAPI. This CLI tool goes a lot further than documentation, and helps with “linting” (automated API Style Guides), and solves the biggest problem that I had previously been
I co-found Protect Earth in 2020 and none of us knew how big it would become. We plant tens of thousands of trees all over the country every year, and for me that work is entirely unpaid. Being brutally honest I could do with some help.

I’ll post more information when I’ve found a spot, but if you look for a balding dude with a beard and a dubious waxed moustache the odds are good that you’ll find me.
Me: Oh, my editor can't have a look at stuff yet. I guess I get a Writer Snow Day.
🧠: Your side of the work in git. You could branch and…

Interesting to hear @geerlingguy@mastodon.social describe Home Automation as something that should always be additive, because it’s so essential. I didn’t realise until there how much this matched with my views on the web, that important things should always be progressively enhanced.
A lot of ppl write about how they wish blogs had better reply functionality and that's why blogging will always lose out to social media. They may list solutions to blog replies and even include …

Gentoo’s process for removing packages from the main gentoo package repository is designed to make me aware of it and give me time to react, and I really appreciate that.
Any #IndieWeb folk heading to #ffconf next week? I’m wondering if anyone fancies a little informal Homebrew Website Club, or maybe just a coffee or a pint.
