Much easier to just use the proxy of "Technology is bad". -

nigeldgreen (nigeldgreen@mastodon.org.uk)'s status on Thursday, 18-May-2017 14:44:36 UTC nigeldgreen I really don't understand sites that run a blog, and invest good time in making the content awesome, but don't have a feed for it. I really am not going to come back top your site every day, and I don't want to have to follow you on social media to know when you update.
Why do sites do this?

Market demand has to ask for diversity, it's not going to appear by itself. In conversation from sn.jonkman.ca permalink -

Matthew Skala (mattskala@mstdn.io)'s status on Tuesday, 16-May-2017 01:55:18 UTC Matthew Skala Almon Strowger is best known for inventing the first deployed automatic telephone exchange in the late 1800s, but his main business was as an undertaker. He invented the exchange because he believed that a local manual-exchange operator, married to one of his competitors, was redirecting calls from his potential customers to her husband instead.
The net neutrality issue goes back a long, long time.

Former Bob Jonkman -- Please use the new server at https://gs.jonkman.ca (bobjonkmanformer@sn.jonkman.ca)'s status on Sunday, 14-May-2017 22:27:48 UTC Former Bob Jonkman -- Please use the new server at https://gs.jonkman.ca WinXP is popular for embedded systems. It's likely the manufacturer of your hospital's X-Ray machine hasn't been updating the OS, but doctors still need to access the images across the network. So, it's susceptible to the #WannaCry ransomware. And the X-Ray machine is proprietary hardware, so there's no chance of upgrading to !FreeSoftware OS. In conversation from sn.jonkman.ca permalink -
