Haha I am not. We use what's comfortable tbf. I just can't deal with Windows any longer, and both my study and work are kind of multilingual, and the more I can break something, the better for me. At least I can tell all friends what sites not to shop from XD.

@tardis Honestly I got kind of tired of VO bugs in Mac OS, also I was having to do Windows things in Parallels anyway but I didn't have enough internal storage, womp womp. Also I've been to Linux land, like Mac OS but with less apps, is my honest verdict.

Well, Windows doesn't work for me. I dealt with so many MS and language issues, I got tired of it, and when I started studying linguistics and I needed braille, Mac was the thing to go to, also iPhone, iPad, airpods and the watch, which I bought to track my heart rate because it was going dangerous. So, my est investment honestly.

I wrote a small tool in Go that will filter my inbox for messages older than <x> days (currently 30, for me), delete the ones sent by known spammy addresses or common subject lines, and move the rest to an Archive/<message year> folder. If the archive/<year> folder doesn't exist, it gets created. I have a thing that will run this every week and notify me about the changes. This is easier and more intuitive to me than designing automated email rules, which rely on server or client support.

Hi. Hello. Is this thing on?

I love this name can I join? LOL. I probably won't one instance is enough for me, I am getting old but that's really funny. I boosted you so you can federate. Yay! Make people boost you. But this instance has 8k instances it federates with sooo, look that thing go up and up and whee! Be happy!

I have my Mastodon server working ... mostly.
It seems there some kind of problem when searching for users on other instances. I was able to interact with my admin@procrastodon.net account by mentioning @admin from this account, but before that, neither account could seem to follow the other. The biggest clue I have is an error 500 that shows up in Mona when I try to search for users after switching to the Procrastodon account. I think Tweesecake performs a search with many of its user-related commands and just selects the first result, so I assume it's also failing there. I don't get any visible error if I search with the web interface, nor can I seem to find anything in logs--although that's likely because I just don't know where to look.
Curious if anyone has ever experienced something like this, or knows where I can go to get some slightly more useful troubleshooting done.

Yes, this usually happens when your account is new. Trying to search for users from it is the better option. If that does not work, then something broke, but GTS definitely did that. Until we interacted with over 7000 instances and search was no longer an issue. :D

So I have a question for all you out there. What is this whole woke movement? What does it mean if you are a woke person? me, @pooch754 and his mom are all curious.

Made another handy #accessibility guide, this time for your science plots!

Our plots can have lots of messages in them, so try and tell the story of the main message. Here's a guideline/template and some tips on how you can describe your plots that works for me.

Hope folks find this useful!

(I am using one of our pulsar observations to demonstrate how I have used this template in the alt-text for this image)

#Science #Astrodon #ScienceCommunication #SciComm

This is a plot of a pulsar observation, with the x-axis representing the pulse phase and the y-axis representing flux density in units of millijansky. The plot contains thre curves, one in black which represents the pulsar's profile intensity, one in red which represents the linear polarization and one in blue which represents the circular polarization. The pulsar's signal forms a sharp narrow peak around pulse phase 0.35. The intensity profile is much larger than the polarization profiles, which both form a more variant profile, rising up and down. The circular polarization even goes negative. This plot is representative of an observation for the pulsar PSR J2241-5236. Above the main plot there is also a smaller sub-plot, which shows the position angle (P.A.) data as a function of the same pulse phase, as well as degrees. The data in this plot is small clusters of data points and their error bars. The P.A. represents the orientation of the linear polarization of light from the observer's perspective. There is also text on the plot, which provides handy accessibility tips and a template for the wording to use, as this image is being used to demonstrate science plot accessibility.

I favourite a lot of cool stuff on Mastodon. I'd love a service to go through that stuff on a regular basis, pick some of it at random, and remind me of it. Maybe by email, DM, or whatever.

Note: last time I mentioned using favourites in this way, Mastodon's corrections brigade came out in force to tell me I should be using bookmarks instead. Please don't do that again.

Don't know why I didn't realize it sooner, but, while LLMs produce a lot of bullshit, they're absolutely perfect for producing those endless shitty interpretive papers I had to write in college for classes like English Lit. I hope students are making mockeries of those now. Ask ChatGPT to write a 1,000 word paper explaining how the song WAP is a protest against 'nuclear weapons.

I just wrote a tip for the book about how difficult I found it getting the new BSI activation gesture to work. TURNS OUT. My BSI Activation Gesture setting was toggled off. On my new phone? Anyone else see Off as a default? Also, if you can’t get the gesture to work, go find that toggle in BSI settings. #a11y #ios #voiceover

Never seen this by default off. I don't think the gesture is described well by Apple. The language sounds too confusing, at least to me. I like how someone described it in their podcast: "simply place your fingers as if you were about to type the letter C. Now, type it twice". Works for me! :)

Sections of Fifth Ave in the Gaslamp Quarter were closed to cars and open to people, enforced with permanent-looking metal bollards. It was nice to have a space for people to exist without noisy, dangerous cars being everywhere, and Aubrie liked being able to freely roll in the street rather than having to maneuver along the sidewalk.
