Quick fun little writing exercise. Write about your family dinner!

Welcome to the ATmos. We have fun and games. We have everything you want. Honey we know the domains. We are the people who can build whatever you may need...

Literally. We aren’t the entire internet as cool as that’d be… I don’t understand why this is the direction y’all want to go. The protocol has already coined a term for this. Atmosphere. Just use it and people will begin to understand. Use something completely unrelated and it will cause confusion.

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness

I just bought carbon steel sheet metal. It never really occured to me that was a thing you could buy. And now I'm making plans to buy stuff at the hardware store and it's weirdly energizing. I should make physical things more often.

What started as a rant about a dumb business model turned into a deep dive on the advantages of the @atproto.com in an attempt to become a ubiquitous standard

still thinking about this article today. so many societal ills are caused by people white-washing what actually happens. it's awful to see games do it too. can't wait for cozy domestic violence simulator or cozy kkk simulator

Developer attempts to replicate "Liquid Glass" in CSS, and once finished realizes what she'd actually created is an exploit for a fundamental, previously unknown, and rather serious browser vulnerability lyra.horse/blog/2025/12... "CSS hack accidentally becomes regular hack"

The Gilded Age is supposed to be a parallel to the current era of wealth inequality. #historians did the economy of that era also move upmarket the way we are seeing our own consumer market move upmarket? Did the "lower top 1%" start feeling the squeeze to keep up with the Rockefellers?

I'm happy to announce that my PDS, selfhosted.social, is officially open to the public now!

🤖👾🎮

@schlage.town was tinkering with @leaflet.pub locally over the weekend. Starting to get the hang of it, might have some stuff to put up in the future. Is GitHub or tangled the preferred host? Seems to be on both

Fixed my @eastforkpottery.bsky.social bowl and had a lot of fun doing it. I'd forgotten how nice it is to do things with your hands!

If you're doing #dev on the @atproto.com, what's best practice for having a dev user? Is there a way to stand up a throwaway PDS or other tooling? I suppose I could create an alt account but that seems somewhat...inelegant?

Thankful for all of you wonderful people doing inspiring things and that @jcsalterego.bsky.social remains unverified

@leaflet.pub bravo on renaming docs "looseleaf." Just *chef's kiss*

Does a cloud inventory system exist with the following features and a price tag that isn't ridiculous? - Receive orders via API, let the user figure out which parts to fulfil it with - Give limited views to 3rd-party warehouses so they can see their stuff - Combine raw components into new parts

Best thing I've seen all week

Writing is hard. Writing without building a practice is excruciating.

HYPERBEAT has a brand new trailer! I'm very proud of it :)

Obligatory credits pic. ✌️😎✌️ #gamedev #vr #indiegame

If you ever need a reminder of the power of optimism, just remember that one dude managed to trade a red paperclip for a house and got to hang out with Corbin Bernsen in the process

I was wondering why I felt like I had no free time these days and then I realized it's because I had started a food blog and didn't tell anyone...

@bottino.games finally got a perfect score on a #hyperbeat level!

@bsky.app @support.bsky.team This seems like a bug--don't know why the second post has the link embed even though there's no link in there!

How does this not have a map somewhere? Not limited to Chicago btw, every city I've lived in has the literal WORST maps of permit parking. At least the Chicago database is easy to read: data.cityofchicago.org/Transportati... #gis #maps #parking

just shower @leaflet.pub with love <3

One thing I really like about being part of early days on #leaflet is that I am atop the "Recently Published" section of the Reader for a non-trivial amount of time after posting. Does a lot to help you feel like you're not shouting into the void.

A day I've had in the past and a day I'd like to have in the future

Illinois will effectively eliminate parking minimum requirements in ~all of Chicago and much of its suburbs thanks to the transit funding bill that passed last night.

OH! I forgot to mention--I am once again a resident of the Midwest. Happy to be back in Chicago, in a great Wicker Park spot. I did not consider public transit when moving back but HOLY CRAP is having the train right there suuper nice

We're almost there! Exciting times! The campaign goes live this coming Tuesday, along with a brand new gameplay trailer AND a playable demo on Steam! Please support us by heading to our Preview page and clicking "Notify me on launch"! bit.ly/AirlockGames... #indiegames #indiedev #horrorgames

Yo dawg, I heard you don't have any ideas so here's a post devoid of ideas so you can not have ideas while writing about not having ideas ... or something like that

Does someone have a cache of the old NaNoWriMo pep talks somewhere? I knew the org had basically died but I didn't realize they'd brought the whole site down with them. There was a lot of good stuff in there too: www.wikiwrimo.org/wiki/Pep_Talk

I can't stop laughing. Olde YouTube was such a wonderful place www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPjS...

Gotta justify my tagline somehow

PEAK RHYTHM GAME JUST DROPPED

Making a @leaflet.pub! Getting back in the writing habit (at least for a brief moment). Hoping I can make it stick. For now it's grahame.leaflet.pub but I'll probably soon be porting it to my own domain.

Congrats Alice!!

It's just nice to see some success stories for a change #trains #goodnews www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXC_...

Mindlessly scrolling on your phone spends minutes of your life. Which is the same effect as shortening the life of someone who doesn't have a phone

Forget spaceships or robot cars. Relocating an enitre country because "humans ruined the planet" is the most sci-fi thing I've seen in my life: www.wired.com/story/the-fi...

Despite what Substack would have you believe, blogs are still very much alive and kicking. But with the demise of Bloglovin and Google Reader I'm looking for a good tool to get all my blogs in one place. Any suggestions?

Do you still remember how to surf the internet? Feels like the bluesky crowd might appreciate a reminder it's still possible to do: www.raptitude.com/2025/06/how-...
