Microblog

I forgot to do (or rather, show) the short URL thing.

As per https://jan.boddez.net/notes/bf2be3b017: Everything Everywhere All at Once ★☆☆☆

My feed reader seems to strip alt attributes off u-photos. My RSS feed has the alt text set to either the post title, or a truncated copy of the post content. That’s no good.

I’m really going to have to address my auto-tagging “listens.” Right now, I’m running a small mu-plugin that tries to match songs against the MusicBrainz database, all while I have mostly correct genre information in my own, albeit outdated, “music database.”

Not sure diamonds are really the best example here, but: true.

In general, [scarcity] doesn’t create value. Limiting your own product until it’s as rare as diamonds will not make it as valuable as diamonds.

I’d say go for it. I added “plugins” to my RSS reader, which only I use! Simply because I wanted it to remain, at its core, the simplest of feed readers, and at the same time kind of wanted a weather widget, the ability to add custom CSS, “checkin maps,” and minimal Microsub support. Plugins let you do exactly that, abstract away all the fluff.

Reading a pro (!) cyclist can crank out about 400 W for some 20 minutes, and maybe 250 for a few hours—comparable to, or perhaps a bit better than, a single solar panel.

That said, exercise is a great way to keep warm!

Gonna set up my own “URL shortener,” just because I can. Not sure if should go for an API solution of sorts, or something simpler, based off actual post IDs or something.

Nice write-up on IndieWebifying a static site.

That said, this is exactly why I favor dynamic sites (where you’d flush the cache and that’s about it) for this type of thing:

[M]y Webmention workflow is lacking. I need to implement a way to automatically rebuild my site[.]

Syndication is another troubling topic. The process is a bit convoluted[.]
