Xkcd 1732 was made ten years ago, but we're still _exactly_ on the "current path", which is, without exaggeration, the doomsday scenario. If we can't get the needle to move only a tiny bit over a decade, we need to be a lot louder apparently. For full accessible […] [Original post on mas.to]
Today is #carfreesunday in Brussels. Largest pedestrian area in Europe, for one day a year. Everyone's out on their bikes, roller skates, or just running or walking. But the most impressive part are the children. So many! Children of all ages, on tiny bikes, steps, skates, skateboards... You […]

🍄 There's a mushroom that makes people see tiny people. The same tiny people, every time. Lanmaoa asiatica is a bolete sold as a delicacy in Yunnan, China and the northern Philippines. Cooked thoroughly, it's a savory umami-rich food. Eaten raw or undercooked, it reliably triggers Lilliputian […]

Man to his wife: “I don’t understand why they have the flush behind the toilet seat so you have to put the lid down to flush it. I don’t want to touch the lid, it’s disgusting!” I think you’ve hit the nail on the head there, Sir.

By the way, did you know you can also subscribe to Mastodon feeds via RSS? I know, right!! Check out this helpful guide from @FediTips to learn how: https://fedi.tips/following-mastodon-and-fediverse-accounts-through-rss/
RSS on Mastodon and the Fediverse
RSS feeds are simple, easy-to-use feeds of content from the internet, such as news articles, videos and podcasts. You can use RSS apps to follow Mastodon accounts, and use Mastodon accounts to follow RSS feeds. ## What is RSS? RSS is basically just a special kind of internet address that tells an RSS app where to find content. The apps used to follow RSS feeds are often called “feed readers” or “news readers”. When you enter an RSS address into an RSS app, the posts made by that address are shown in a chronological list. RSS feeds can work for all kinds of content including blogs, news sites, podcasts etc. (Most podcast apps are powered by RSS, even if they don’t publicly state this.) ## How to follow Mastodon accounts from an RSS feed reader app All Mastodon accounts have an RSS address which can be followed from RSS apps: 1. Go to a Mastodon account profile’s original page on a web browser. 2. Copy the web address from the browser’s address bar 3. Add .rss to the end of the web address to create the account’s RSS address 4. Add the account’s RSS address to your RSS app For example, the RSS feed for the FediTips account is https://social.growyourown.services/@FediTips.rss ⧉. Note that the RSS feed of a Mastodon account only shows posts with public visibility, you will not see replies or posts with other visibilities. ## How to follow Mastodon hashtags from an RSS feed reader app The RSS feed of a hashtag on a server can be found by doing the following: 1. Go to the server’s website 2. Search for the hashtag 3. Click the hashtag from the suggestions list 4. Copy the hashtag’s web address and add .rss to the end to get its feed ## How to follow RSS feeds from Mastodon You can also now do this the other way around, and follow RSS feeds from your Mastodon account, thanks to a service called RSS Parrot ⧉: 1. Create a new post but don’t publish it yet 2. Mention the RSS Parrot Fediverse account _@birb@rss-parrot.net_ 3. Mention the RSS address you want to follow 4. Publish the post (it doesn’t have to be a public post, DMs will work as well) 5. RSS Parrot will create a new Fediverse account that mirrors the contents of the RSS address you provided, and then reply to you with a link to the new account 6. Follow this new account to follow the RSS feed This method works for any Fediverse platform that supports microblogging, including Mastodon and many other Fedi platforms. ## How to follow PeerTube Channels and Accounts from RSS apps You can follow any PeerTube accounts or channel through RSS apps: 1. Go to the channel’s or account’s profile page on PeerTube 2. Click the channel’s or account’s _Subscribe_ button (if you are logged in on that PeerTube server, click the little arrow on the right of the subscribe button instead) 3. There will be an RSS subscription option at the bottom of the subscription menu, click this to go to the RSS feed (which may look a bit crazy but don’t worry!) 4. Copy the address at the top of the browser to get the channel’s or account’s RSS address 5. Paste the RSS address into your RSS app This feed will deliver embedded videos to your feed reader and you can watch them there. ## Friendica: Champion of RSS The Fediverse platform Friendica has probably the best RSS support on the Fediverse, including a built-in feed reader which doesn’t need any third party services or apps. To follow an RSS feed in Friendica: 1. Paste the RSS address into the search box in Friendica 2. The RSS feed’s profile page will appear, click Follow 3. The RSS feed’s contents will start showing up in your main timeline as it is published, and will look like normal account posts Friendica also lets you turn RSS feeds into Fediverse accounts that people can follow from other Fediverse platforms. ↩ Back to the front page

It's begun: I've started skipping over posters that look AI-generated. My brain is already tired of these flyers that look the same and don't emphasize important information... they're all the same!

The first analysis of June’s UK car sales is out. EVs are 30% of all registrations whilst non-hybrid petrol cars are down to 23%. Hybrids represent 44% of registrations. Diesels are a mere 4% and those are mostly Land Rovers. https://newautomotive.org/ecc
I like oyster catchers, they're pretty birds, but it's a fairly stupid name. Oysters don't run around a lot. You could argue that they don't in fact need a lot of catching. We don't call cows grass catchers. Oyster catchers also mostly don't even eat oysters, so that's a moot point.
I'm a bit late to the party this year, but I've updated the #Codegarden #PackingList for #CG26! https://joe.gl/ombek/blog/codegarden-packing-list/ #Umbraco
Codegarden Packing List
Wow, hasn't time flown?! This weekend I'll be boarding my plane to Denmark ahead of Codegarden 2026 so it's about time we thought about packing our bags! But what to bring? If you've not been before, or if you're forgetful like I am, I've written you a packing list...
