@rysiek I think that’s the best option right now. I’m also looking for a way to create an old school roll, which shows the latest posts from that list. I have couple of ideas to give it a try.

@rysiek same here but have no idea what’s the simplest way these days.

@quinn yeah, I’m leaning more towards that too.

Also just found out that owners are marketing xyz as the TLD about generations 🤦🏻♂️ https://gen.xyz/about

@quinn it’ll have a lot of stuff about systems for sure but as you know I work mostly by writing 😁

@quinn it’s for the solo/independent business I’m finally putting out there (I actually started it in early summer but because of overthinking+impostor syndrome like thoughts I barely even talked about it with anyone)

@Flipboard @tchambers @fediversenews do you have plans to start including global outlets? I’d like to see publications from Türkiye included in your federation list.

@Gargron I’m open to help with verification process for Turkish media organizations, journalists, and bloggers. (Also will email you for myself.)

@emilygorcenski I’m guessing it’s about Destiny 2 leaks but also scared there’s more going on over at Sony. 🫣

@emilygorcenski well, I never thought I’d see something worse than using Discord for docs and updates but here we are.

@quinn I think the problem comes from people having a problem to differentiate between a diagnosis and identity. Sure, learning that I have ADHD helped me a lot but turning it into my whole identity doesn’t make sense to me at all.

Maybe it’s just me but I prefer being as complex as possible and impossible to identify with one thing, and end up being called “that weirdo”. 😄

@Wolven I’ve translated three books and many other things between English and Turkish, and I have weeks worth of stories to tell about why translation is not a neutral act.

@aral on my bank app in Turkey, if I don’t have the IBAN saved it always makes me write the full name of the account holder and shows me the first letters to control before sending any money. I don’t know if it allows the transfer if the name is wrong but I always assumed that’s the case because my bank even personally called me one time because someone sent money to my wrong currency account to verify.

They were afraid of turning into paperclips or the AI being angry at them but they forgot the true sign of intelligence: figuring out how to be as lazy as possible.

First real sign of intelligence from ChatGPT?

I’m amazed how these major issues are always caused by the most simple stuff. Like no one working in these projects thought about asking it to repeat a word forever just to see what happens? https://www.404media.co/google-researchers-attack-convinces-chatgpt-to-reveal-its-training-data/

@ted I should really do more reading on dark enlightenment. I’ve read some of it but it feels like I’m missing some important stuff.

@emilygorcenski I don’t think they’ll make too much of an issue about it but otoh something like this would make you instantly famous in here. 😄

@Gargron thank you so much for the bookmark search! That’s a game changer for me.

"Wolin’s book shows how Heidegger was far from resisting Nazism in any way. Rather, he was engaged in a struggle for influence within the regime, claiming to be able to teach others about the “inner truth and greatness” of the Nazi “movement”. Heidegger wanted to be the philosopher whose ideas could “lead the leaders”."

In addition to @emilygorcenski’s advice —which you should follow— if you’re publishing your work on other outlets, also put a private copy of those on your personal website as well. When those outlets decides to pull the plug, you can turn those public with one click and make sure your work won’t disappear because of someone else.
