This strip came out in 1995. I’m afraid of what Calvin’s dad would have to say about technology in 2022. 😬🫠 #CalvinandHobbes

If you're not aware, NASA is posting all the interesting JWST images to Flickr, in glorious full resolution. I just downloaded a 150MB image of the Tarantula Nebula. Find that and more here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/nasawebbtelescope/albums

✨ Community CDN

An opt-in service to offload remote/federated media hosting to a trusted community CDN operated by us.

You'll still have to store local media, but instead of storing remote/federated media, you can use the CDN to keep your hosting costs down.

Shipping to select instances next month, and available to all next year! #pixelfed #communityCDN

Now that we're starting to see more impersonation accounts on Mastodon, a reminder that verified websites are a thing. It's not perfect, but implementable at the individual level, and this is how we know for example which of these is the real @stephenfry - and it's not the one with the meaningless checkmark. :)

Now Musk is saying if Apple and Google block Twitter on their app stores, presumably for failure to moderate hate speech and for safety, he will just create a new phone.

So it’s going well, right?
