A big thank you and shout out to the team at @Castopod for migrating my podcast from self-hosted to Castopod.com. Seamless transition and the RSS feed didn’t even change!

Someone offered to take a look at implementing the ActivityPub "replies" collection in Lemmy (the increasingly popular Reddit alternative)

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2004#issuecomment-1694726517

A Reddit-type post for a podcast episode makes a bunch of sense, perhaps even more than a Twitter-like post thread

As soon as they implement this, it will automatically be supported by the existing podcast:socialInteract tag with no spec changes necessary

🕹️ Now playing Karateka 🥋 on Xbox but I still have the original 5¼ floppy disk that I spent hours on almost 40 years ago! 💾

Now imagine Paul Kafasis, founder of Rogue Amoeba, reading this story in this interview, discovering after 18 years that everything was played out behind his back. 😱
He had no idea what had happened then!

He wrote an article to express his surprise by telling the story from his point of view:

@benjaminbellamy I just learned this hit DF which is kind of a big deal in the apple community.

@wowolff My neighbour has to park his shiny new car outside as its simply too big for his garage :) His anger attack when he found out was actually quite funny to watch from a safe distance :)

Especially that they became wider is a problem, as the width of streets hasn’t grown accordingly. This is a problem I’ve noticed over the years. Cars *are* closer to me when I ride my bicycle on bike lanes that are just marked, not physically separated from car lanes.

@jwildeboer We have a Ford Galaxy because of the children and people tell me these days: "What a reasonable nice car. So much room inside for such a small car!" 😫

This "small" car is 4850 x 2100 meters outside, fits into almost no parking lot, can't use the second lane in Autobahn construction sites, and my wife had to fight hard for it because I found it way too heavy and large for a private car. 😣😣😣

@jwildeboer Doubt that the newer car will get that old like the baby benz.

@adaddinsane

::Ponders:

Could a subconscious rejection of the Heroes Journey be why all 'side character' fan-fic exists?

@clacke No one seems to notice which word you use, salamat, merci, danke, thanks, shukria... anything works. Just a noise at the right time :-)
