A new reason to be afraid of Bluesky: Carole King, one of the greatest songwriters of all time, is there, and she might see something you’ve written. Imagine if the lady who wrote “Up on the Roof” and “Don’t Bring Me Down” told you off! You’d die of shame!

Are there any #bike mechanics on #BikeTooter who can answer a question? When I built my bike, I put mechanical 105 R7000 gear on it (along with the mid-90s Shimano 600 rim brakes it came with). As things wear out, are the cable pulls the same as Ultegra R8000, meaning that I could upgrade the shifters and derailleurs piecemeal?

Edited to add: Asked and answered!

Has there ever been a more childish waste of government resources than creating this knock-off Paw Patrol-ass logo?

To be extra clear, a lot of people manage their stress by posting and reposting lots of information in an effort to be helpful - and that’s fantastic. I used to feel like that was the only way I could stay sane. So: no judgment from me.

A lot of people, including me, are going to be stressed the fuck out for a WHILE and figuring out how to manage that. One tiny way is to unfollow people who post things that stress you out. If somebody (maybe me!) unfollows you, try not to take it personally! It's hard out here! Sorry!

A million people whose public posts are all searchable in Google but demand that their instance not turn on indexing disagree! https://hackers.town/@thegibson/113864483871972534

Just checking in: anyone else terrified for their family, the country and everyone they know? Not just me? Cool.

Fuck.

This is one of those toots that, if you don’t find it funny, and you worry that it’s about you, is 100% about you.

You’re welcome! ☺️

I’m not complaining, but it’s weird to have people boosting your existential crisis. 😂🤣😭

I still haven't made an #introduction post on this server because who I am and what I do has fundamentally changed in the last two years and describing myself accurately feels foreign and weird.

I mostly just like bikes now. I only do tech occasionally, as a hobby. My kids are grown. I don't read comics any more. I quit drinking coffee and have mostly quit alcohol. Who am I? Why would all you nice people want to follow me? Who the fuck knows? Not me!

I just gotta say it: the number of people I've seen on social media begging for an edit button over the last 15 years and the number of toots with very obvious typos do not make any sense at all. Did people just get a lot chiller while they were waiting for the button?

I was leading a volunteer training at the Book Thing yesterday and while on a break, a few us stood at a window and looked at the snow starting to pile up on the cars.

Me: The snow's coming down.

Me: I'm watching it fall.

Me: Lots of people around…

One trainee: Christmaaaaaas.

Me: Thank you!

Trainee: I wasn’t sure how long you were going to keep going.

Me: As long as it took!

Got a potential new favorite volunteer!

There are very few people who could get a math degree from Harvey Mudd, then while getting a grad degree in Math work part time in an ER and decide to become a surgeon, and among those that gifted, very few are as sweet and kind and unselfish as he was. The world is poorer for his absence.

Just got back from a memorial service for @therealchjones who passed away in December. Chris was one of the kindest, sweetest, most decent people I’ve ever known, and I’m so sad that he’s gone. If you knew him, you’ll miss him. If you didn’t, I wish you could have.

Honestly? Instagram in 2011 was peak social media in terms of quality and community and culture.

I’m having a lot of discussions about Pixelfed and it is VERY clear which people weren’t on Instagram in 2011.

When I recorded a 35 mile cycling workout on my Apple Watch today, I accidentally hit “outdoor walk” and gave me an award for burning 2,154 calories. 🤦

I would consider doing it if I could cover the hosting costs, but as a part-time volunteer coordinator…
