There is order in the universe. I know, because on the very day that I finally knuckled down and wrote a pathetic little spreadsheet to do some bread calculations for me, the Gods of Serendipity put in one of my RSS feeds, and my gob is smacked.
A space for mostly short form stuff and responses to things I see elsewhere.
Still trying to work out why a photo that includes a hashtag (from Instagram) fails to show as a photo on micro.blog, while a photo without any hashtags shows up just fine.
Anyone have a clue?

@cn Yes. So need to examine the RSS in more detail and see whether it is Known or here that is doing the unnecessary. But that's a task for another day.

@cn Pardon my ignorance, what is Known?

@retrophisch Known — another php–based blog engine.

@cn Ah, grazie.

TIL: beets and bougainvillea are a lot more closely related than I ever imagined.

This news of a site for IndieWeb on Textpattern is very exciting. I used to use TXP back in the day for one of my sites, but moved it to WP. Maybe I'll move it back ...

@jeremycherfas Textpattern was nice. I wrote a flickr gallery plugin in 2004-ish when my blog ran on it. I also bet heavily (and lost) on Textile for markup. Good to see it's still kicking. Reminds me that I miss Dean Allen.

@jack I bet on Textdrive, and lost in the SNAFU, but learned in the process that lifetime means nothing in tech circles.

@jeremycherfas I'd forgotten about my "lifetime" membership at Textdrive! That was fun, while it lasted.
, Feb 23 2019 on micro.blog
@jeremycherfas i had a lifetime membership as well. wishful thinking.

@donovanwatts As @jack says, fun while it lasted. But the way Joyent handled it left a very bad taste in the mouth.

@jeremycherfas agreed about the way joyent handled it all. very messy. i’m glad to have moved on from that once it became clear that things were not going to work out.

Sorry about cluttering the timeline. Error diagnosed, normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.
"a podcast inspired by an Instagram account, covering the dating lives, drunken escapades, and makeup lines of superstar digital citizens"
Er, no. I don't think so.

I've been subscribing to Craig Mod for a couple of weeks, but missed this, so thanks. One tiny quibble. The footnotes in the quote go to Craig's site, which means that when I'm done reading them, I have no easy way to get back to you. I know, pretty minor. But still.
Note to future self: to clean up single-use tags in Pinboard, go to “manage” under tags and then “used once”.
And good luck with keeping up.
I'm glad you found something that works for you. I tried a similar thing myself (3 podcasts a week) for a while, and used Huffduffer to make the feed, but came across too many walled gardens to keep bothering.
@jeremycherfas own your gram to Known, rss to here?
