if you use mastodon you're a millenial, sorry i don't make the rules
@schlink Sadly it doesn't degrade gracefully. It's only visible on Mastodon 2.4.0+ and doesn't load in older versions / other ActivityPub implementations.
is there a browser extension where it'll close any tabs you've had open for more than e.g. 2 hours unless you "pin" them
because i think i always have at least 20 too many tabs open from things i was doing 2 hours ago that i no longer remember if i need or not
gotta say: 1Password 7 for Mac looks pretty nice https://blog.agilebits.com/2018/05/22/1password-7-for-mac-the-best-ever/
Separately, interesting that they commissioned some fun art ahead of this release
if there was a standardized way share a public GPG key (say, link to MIT server page), you could (hypothetically) make a browser extension to encrypt and decrypt DMs... (Is this a bad idea? I honestly am not sure)
TIL Mastodon offers metadata fields in profiles!

Hello mastodon from a rainy London 😊
"I am proof that parents who are legally seeking asylum are being separated from their children for seemingly no reason," writes Mirian G., who came to the US from Honduras, and was separated from her 18-month-old child. https://www.cnn.com/2018/05/29/opinions/immigration-separation-mother-son-mirian/index.html
It's called the Millennial Falcon because it's constantly broke
@schlink Twelve South has nice photography wallpapers prepared for dual monitor set-ups
@schlink apod.nasa.gov/ is good for wallpaper backgrounds if you like space.
honestly one my favorite parts of Plasma/KDE's aesthetic so far is the default cursor themeing
1 year ago, my dogs and my in-laws' dogs created an original renaissance painting by being trapped behind a pet gate
Request: I'm looking for new desktop wallpaper(s)! Do y'all have any favorites?
(I have 2 monitors, both running 1920 x 1080 if that matters)

"They were people working through the rust to answer their imagination... To these people I came to admire, their lives felt like whispers. To me, they were glorious songs."
