There’s a couple of days left on this poll. Note that I’m referring to blogs, i.e. linky commentary ordered by date. I think some people who have chosen 90s have been referencing GeoCities, Homestead, etc. While those services could’ve been used to run journals / weblogs, it wasn’t normally the case. By all means choose 90s if you were writing a blog on GeoCities, but just wanted to clarify that. mastodon.social/@ricmac/115113…
Informal Friday poll: what year did you start blogging? I've put a poll with some timeframes below, but if you want to add some colour please leave a comment. As I mentioned in my post today (cybercultural.com/p/blogs-rss-…), I started blogging in 2002, with Radio Userland. It took me a year to start ReadWriteWeb, though 😀So, when did you start blogging?
1999: Blogs Burst Onto the Scene, but RSS Is Slow To Settle
The launch of Blogger in August 1999 signals the arrival of weblogs into mainstream web culture. At the same time, web syndication formats are being worked out — starting with Netscape's RSS 0.90.Richard MacManus (Cybercultural)
Teacher Comments:
This has been a big year for Knute. He has made significant progress in napping, loafing and sleeping however there is still room for growth in being mindful of classroom rules. In particular, allowing items to remain on the table. Sometimes, even after a warning, Knute will knock the same item off of the table again. I know he is working very hard and am excited to see the progress he makes in the new semester.

Ma merveilleuse grande sœur recherche un appartement sur #Strasbourg pour reprendre des études à la fac. Elle aimerait bien un appartement :
- 2 pièces
- proximité d'un tram (pour aller à la fac et à la gare)
- budget de 850€ maximum
- idéalement meublé
Pas de colocation car elle sera rejoint plus tard par son amoureux ❌️
Si quelqu'un connaît quelqu'un qui aurait un petit nid pour elle... 😇

Due giganti rivali dell'AI hanno fatto l'impensabile: OpenAI e Anthropic si sono scambiati i segreti dei loro modelli per testarli reciprocamente. E che hanno scoperto sui comportamenti nascosti di ChatGPT e Claude? Sanno mentire meglio di quanto pensassimo, nascondendo i loro veri processi di ragionamento anche quando glielo chiediamo.

Domäne des Horus-Königs Skorpion
Davon hatte ich bis eben noch nie gehört: vordynastische hieroglyphen. vor mehr als 5000 jahren haben ägyptische herrscher ihre gebietsansprüche mit hieroglyphen dokumentiert. wenn ich das richtig verstehe, relativ weit vom nil entfernt.
der herrscher zertrampelt seine feinde und sammelt köpfe.
also fast so wie heute ...

Eureka.
In the last 6 months I've only gotten 5 spam or scam calls or texts total. It used to be 5+ per day.
I can't tell if one specific change I made did it, or the combination.
Was it changing to #Linux ?
Was it #Fairphone with #Murena ?
Was it ditching my old cell carrier and moving my number to #XMPP ?
Was it bailing out of gmail or outlook for #opensource email options?
Was it abandoning corporate social media and replacing it fully with #Fediverse ?
Whatever it was, the silence and ability to use my phone for its intended purpose - talking to people I know - is glorious.
100% with you on this, there is no sustainable smartphone, Sustainable smartphone is a cord with a can. It's marketing being good at marketing.
That said, why are we supporting google devices? Is there a chance, hypothetically, there is any other more devices that are similar to what you are trying to achieve (pixel)?
You do understand that releasing a software and then the phone itself makes it quite similar to what others are offering, right?

A young #planet outside our Solar System.
The featured image from the #VLT surprisingly captures a distant scene much like our own Solar System's birth, some 4.5 billion years ago.
Although we can't look into the past and see Earth's formation directly, telescopes let us watch similar processes unfolding around distant #stars.
At the center of this frame lies a young Sun-like star, hidden behind a coronagraph that blocks its bright glare.
Surrounding the star is a bright, dusty protoplanetary disk, the raw material of #planets.
Gaps and concentric rings mark where a newborn world is gathering gas and dust under its gravity, clearing the way as it orbits the star.
Although astronomers have imaged disk-embedded planets before, this is the first-ever observation of an exoplanet actively carving a gap within a disk, the earliest direct glimpse of planetary sculpting in action.

Hello world! A shiny new server awaits me! #Introduction
Hi, I'm Charlie and I can't sit still. I love taking photos with weird cameras, old and new, I sew things (quilts, clothes long Furbies), lean heavily left and drool over motorbikes.
I serve two feline overlords (Gunter and Fennel) and one royal python (Starbuck). I'm almost 40, queer, poly and live in Bristol.

Trump inherited an economy that was the envy of the developed world, one Biden's team navigated through post-pandemic inflation better than almost anyone.
In just a few months, Trump has torched it—simply because he takes pleasure in destroying his predecessor’s accomplishments. trib.al/7L5X9OJ
The Trump Recession Is Coming
The president’s assault on the independence of the Federal Reserve is only the latest of several reckless economic actions that have put the country on the brink of economic disaster.The New Republic
