Here is where friend Starkwether lies: Nobody laughs, nobody cries. Where he goes, how he fares? Nobody knows, nobody cares... Mastodon: @[email protected]
@simon_schama Dr. Schama you are one of the few reasons I still look at this site. Have you moved to Mastadon or Threads yet? Tried but couldn’t find you. Thanks for making history fresh and relevant to us contemporary people. I will be looking out for you over there should you jump ship.
Thank you all, for another amazing year. 2023 will be the year that #FujiNet gets a generic bus interface, and we can really start bringing it to every single #retrocomputing and #retrogaming platform in existence. :)
Hey did you know that @PFTompkins is leaving bird site in Jan. ? Most of the cool kids are over at mastodon now. I will periodically check in here for messages and to remind people to go there if they haven't already. But I mean if Paul is leaving what good is this place?
I’ve thought about it even before that dumbass took over but I was worried about losing an outlet for promotion. But ultimately I’m just scrolling and scrolling looking for something interesting and coming up empty more than striking gold.
@JohnKennedyEsq Maybe keep the account here but post your best material places where people are going to love it most? I kept my account here but the stream of people who generate the media I consume is growing elsewhere. It makes disuse easier. But,no place with human participants is a panacea.
@JohnKennedyEsq I met Doug Coupland at a Boston book signing in '96. He was jet lagged and signed that book and a gave me a blueprint of the pdp-11(weird?). I told him how much that book meant to me as a young techie. He said nothing, blank stare. It is sometimes awkward meeting your heros IRL.
@superjude81@NumskullDesigns I think mastodon users are starved for your morning affirmation could you post it there too? Instead? I am sure you could get your follower count up there quick… cheers I have enjoyed your posts here!
@hodgman Just come over to mastodon for crying out loud. If only so I don’t have to listen to my wife complain that you aka 'all comedy' isn’t there yet.
@SkaldRpg Mastodon is pretty fun. Just like anything you have to follow some people to see much variety. But the quality of posting is great. I spend more time enjoying the content versus managing my block list. In fact I don’t think I have blocked anyone. Here I block more than I follow.
