Good morning Mastodon!

I want to draw attention to the fact that Mailpile wants to hire folks to help make our software available to Windows and Mac OS users.

Our mission is user privacy, Free Software and online independence for all. And we'd like Mailpile to be a diverse, inclusive, human-friendly and family-friendly place to work.

If you also care about those things, please help spread the word - and if you have the skills we need, check out mailpile.is/jobs/ and consider applying!

Re that last boost: Mastodon is hard to get into without a guide and some focused usage.

The things that make it less toxic also make it harder to discover people to follow.

Without people, you just kind of feel like you're tooting into the void. It makes Mastodon a lonely place that you're less likely to return to. I mean, this is why Twitter and Facebook put so much energy into recommendations.

I don't think Mastodon should try to solve this problem. But let's acknowledge the hurdles.

Wow, really and truly fuck Ajit Pai like wow fuck him like titanium hard like tensile strength hard.

Bungie has long been my last hold-out when it comes to pre-orders, but after , I'm done giving them the benefit of the doubt. I love Destiny. I love the world. I love the game. I love the community. I hate being treated like a commodity.

Mario Odyssey knows what chord is playing on the soundtrack and uses that info when playing musical sound effects.

Sometimes, if we cannot use our brains, we must use our feet.

I tell you what, I believe in but some of these concepts are so obtuse I don't know how the layman will ever wrap their heads around them.

What is your fave exchange and why?

If I try to make a phone call via web, contacts never load & never get a field for number input. If I open the dialer on mobile, it doesn't show up in the app. The dialer is installed, but doesn't show in UI.

Anyone else on Project Fi who ported their number from Google Voice unable to to make calls from Hangouts? Hasn't worked in months.

I do say goddamn, the Blade Pro's fans do get loud.

Proud of my local USPS office. Big ups for not even bothering to attempt a delivery.
