Politics can be an uncomfortable and tiresome topic, but many people’s very existence is hugely affected by political forces. Those people are often a marginalized minority, and they need all of the awareness and support that they can get.
“I don’t do politics” is such a powerfully privileged thing to be able to say.

I’ve updated https://lumon.industries for the first time in a couple of years. The numbers are scary, but there’s meaning in there.

Have a quick chat and then see if you can guess whether you chatted with a person or an AI.

I’ve done two so far, and was wrong both times. 💀

What @npub12gj…j3qh is doing with Prami Partners is an amazing reminder of how far our community has come. ❤️ I’m still not really sure how that happened, but it’s wonderful!

@npub18du…tx7r I’ve had Citizens One (the company that does the upgrade program leases) provide my account number over the phone before. Give them a try at 888-201-6306. 👍

@npub1mmt…szvq It’s nothing special! I’ve been toying with the idea of “URL as sentence” or “URL as statuslog entry”... and with a clever Icelandic domain name, the social.lol API, and a tiny bit of scripting, I whipped this up: https://adam.newbold.is/making-a-little-thing-for-statuslogging
It fetches my latest statuslog entry, renders it in glorious minimalist text, and even redirects to a URL that fulfills the “URL as sentence” concept.
It’s dorky and impractical, but I still think it’s kinda cool and I’m going to toy around with it!

@npub1nr9…u2va Of course, you can always ask any questions. 😄 And I’m glad you asked this one because I definitely phrased that a little awkwardly, heh. It’s perfectly fine to link to stuff hosted on some.pics from anywhere on the internet. I was being a little too omg.lol-centric when I responded to @npub1mmt…szvq. Sorry for any confusion!

@npub1mmt…szvq I’m also going to add a caption field that’s distinct from the description field. Description will wind up being the alt text for the image, and caption will be what’s shown on the image page. I do feel pretty strongly about making sure that the pics that appear on the landing page all have alt text, so I do really want to encourage people to add a description when uploading, though it’s not required to perform the upload. Does that make sense? I’m open to feedback on any/all of this!

@npub1mmt…szvq Good question — the current implementation isn’t stellar (but I’m going to get it there, promise!) but the intent is for it to be a photo sharing service (while also serving as a way to load media that you want to use on other parts of omg.lol). I’m going to add an actual per-pic “visibility" toggle (and address-level default preference) so we’re not relying on the presence of a description as the sole trigger for whether a pic is public or not.

@npub18du…tx7r I’m not sure! I poked around and found a bunch of forum posts going back as far as 2011 with people complaining about comic sans not rendering, and a reddit post from just 8 days ago with someone saying that "this is still an issue in 2023". I'd love to know the full story behind the phenomenon!

@npub1wv5…5cmq maybe you’re thinking of https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net which I’ve used in the past and can totally endorse. I nearly forgot all about them!

@npub1wv5…5cmq I’ve been out of the shared hosting scene for a while now (been using VPSes forever!) but I can vouch for Netlify (which is free!) and works nicely with GitHub repos. There’s also GitHub Pages, of course. But if you’d rather not use GitHub (as I’m feeling more and more lately myself), I might be cooking up a new thing that will make simple web hosting *super* easy… 😄
