After two long days in front of the computer, happy to see the quest in the local park again. The photo is facing directly away from the location.
A space for mostly short form stuff and responses to things I see elsewhere.
Found another person who syndicated from WithKnown to Mastodon, and wondering what technology they used. Probably the Mastodon plugin that is not working for me.
Testing POSSE to Mastodon using the KnownMastodon plugin. I like the fact that (if it works) syndication is optional for each post.
Trying to use IFTTT to POSSE from here to @etp@indieweb.social and discovering, alas, that use of a webhook requires payment. Not that I'm against paying, just that this particular use cannot justify the cost. Next stop, the ActivityPub plugin.
Movie might, My Generation, with Michael Caine. Excellent documentary about London in the 1960s. Loads of nostalgia. What a time and place to be growing up in.
Probably not relevant, but I have to transfer a site from WordPress to ClassicPress and I might do it on Saturday and take the opportunity to make it a bit more IndieWeb.

@bradenslen Thanks. I've done it for one of my own sites too, absolutely painless. This is a bigger site that was failing a PHP upgrade to 8.2. I knew this day would come, and as I have no need for the bells and whistles of WP these days, time to make the change.

Here's a fun one from this day in 2007: Dr Watson and the Missing Money

Cracking piece from Max Walker in Vittles, on the Devon Split, as a vehicle for the industrialisation of London's milk supply. I've never tasted one, but I kept thinking, which came first, the Split or the Marritozzo. Still none the wiser.

The on-this-day feature on my main site threw up a little gem today from way back when in 2006. I was so thrilled by the fact that the post is still live, and by the fact that it is as relevant today as it was then (perhaps more so) that I am linking to it again. https://lancemannion.typepad.com/lance_mannion/2006/03/living_large.html
A new Eat This Newsletter: the other shoe drops on lead in cinnamon; rye in Scandinavia and the recent oldest bread, which requires a small qualifier; doubts about agricultural subsidies that “that when reached will make them redundant”; and a history of British pies https://buttondown.email/jeremycherfas/archive/etn-233-leavened/
@jeremycherfas I've set up a ClassicPress site and the Indieweb plugins all worked. I detailed it here: cyberzettel.com/successfu...
The major hitch was from my host which runs an auto-update robot for all Wordpress installs, for security purposes, which kept reverting my ClassicPress site back to Wordpress every half hour. I had to get them to turn that off for my ClassicPress install.
