Surprised Apple isnโ€™t asking for 30% of my business because I used a Mac to make the website.

@robb @marioguzman Surprised Apple isnโ€™t asking for 30% of my business because I use a Mac.

(Actually more than one. Would it be 30% for each Mac?)

โญ On Robots and Text by @nickheer pxlnv.com/blog/on-robots-and-t

"It is simply not the case that requesting a webpage through Perplexity is akin to accessing the page via a web browser. It is more like automated traffic โ€” even if it is being guided by a real person."

Nick nails it.

I made a new thing: slash pages dot net slashpages.net/

What is it? A guide to common pages you can add to your website. Thanks to @shellsharks
for the help in getting a good description together as well.

My blog post about it: rknight.me/blog/slash-pages/

Two #WeblogPoMo2024 posts in one day doesn't seem like a good idea this close to the end but yolo as the kids say

@robb I've also seenโ€ฆ

- /architecture (matklad.github.io/2021/02/06/A)
- /carry (forget where I saw this, but it's basically an EDC listing)
- /defaults (might be encompassed by /uses?)
- /favorites (maybe similar to interests?)
- /til (mharty3.github.io/blog/til/)

and don't forget about /chipotle ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ (shellsharks.com/chipotle) ๐Ÿ˜† - a little fun I had with this whole concept.

Awesome work! Love the idea and the look.

@robb @shellsharks how are we supposed to fit all these on our navigation menus? Do we need a /slashes page?

๐Ÿ”Š I have something new in the works - EchoFeed echofeed.app/

๐Ÿค” What is it? A hosted version of Echo (echo.rknight.me/). No more fiddling with JSON configs and all that boring stuff.

๐Ÿ‘‰ I've setup a newsletter so you can sign up to know when it's ready and maybe subscribers will get beta access ๐Ÿ‘€: buttondown.email/echofeed or you can follow me here because I'll definitely be posting about it

Glorious. Pop your Mastodon username in, get a big list of everyone's feeds. Excellent use of the .lol TLD as well.

@robb I love the heading font on this site. Pretty cool that they stretched the font and it still looks that good.

@robb do you have an explainer of how this works anywhere? I was looking for one on your site.

@robb I would suggest adding a few hashtags to it so it can be easier found: #RSS #ATOM #feed

Iโ€™m trying out Pixelfed : @rknightuk

Need to think about how I want to pull that data into my site but itโ€™s nice so far. If youโ€™re on there, let me know so I can follow you.

For All Mankind Season 4 was excellent as always.

Easily one of the best TV shows ever made.

Just pushed a new design to @bugle along with nodeinfo support for discovery.

My mum would spend hours ironing clothes when I was a kid. I dont think Iโ€™ve ever seen an ironing board at any of my friends houses. A whole generation just said โ€œfuck ironingโ€ and we did. Good work everyone.

@robb My mom went back to work (sp.ed. teacher) when I was 13. Before she did, she taught me how to make a meal, how to do my laundry, and how to iron.

I spent most of the 00โ€™s traveling for work, living out of a suitcase, and even a travel iron was too much. Thanks to TSA, I discovered what I referred to the โ€œBachelor Iron:โ€

@robb It's particularly interesting that ironing has fallen by the wayside, since it's almost entirely a social change rather than a technological one.

Lots of other chores have become less time-consuming because of mechanization, but the underlying chore still exists. (We spend less time washing clothes than in 1900, but that's because of washing machines, not because we just decided "fuck it, let's just not wash them ever".)

Some of the lack of ironing today is perhaps due to synthetics replacing linen, wash-and-wear blends, "permanent press" clothes, etc., but the greater part seems to be that the social stigma associated with wrinkled clothes has largely disappearedโ€”and the big exceptions are mostly garments (like suits) that are basically holdovers from before that change happened.

Makes you wonder what other stuff is totally unnecessary if we relaxed on purely arbitrary aesthetic rules.

Came across this again today; if you make a folder named โ€œDeveloperโ€ in your user folder on MacOS it gets a special icon (compare to the "Sites" one I usually make):
