The most hilarious part of this Loeffler thing is that she is so boneheaded that she didn’t even exploit the situation well. I mean, CITRIX? Really? If you’re gonna do evil, at least do it well, and buy into Zoom.
😳 I don't know if this is technically criminal, but if it isn't, it should be. Un-effing-believable.
NEW: Sen. Kelly Loeffler sold between $1.2M and $3.1M worth of stock in the three weeks beginning on Jan 24—the day of a closed-door, all-Senator briefing on the corona...

My goodness, @hulu’s quality and reliability has completely tanked. I’m guessing it’s a result of being slammed with a spike in viewers. I wonder if YouTube TV is handling things any better?

Usually I'd be out tonight. But self isolation cancelled my plans. So now I'm: - hooking up my @WyzeCam bulbs and sensors and debating getting their camera - setting up Home Assistant - figuring out how to block Google Assistant/Home on a router level - set up more privacy stuff
So that creepy popup that shows up on some sites is powered by this: developers.google.com/web/fundamenta… I wish there was a way to NOT do this.
In case you're following the Burr story, he's just lied about which group he was speaking to, how exclusive it was, and didn't address his sell-off.
Burr says: "This lunch was hosted on Feb. 27 by the North Carolina State Society. It was publicly advertised and widely attended." The Tar Heel Circle is a much more exc...
That’s some use of insider information.

P.S. There’s still some time to submit your talk for #PressEdConf20. Since it’s all designed to be online from the start, I’m hoping it won’t be cancelled like all the other events lately.

With luck, I’ll have created this entire #PressEdConf20 presentation on my own website and syndicated it to Twitter without actually needing to visit Twitter itself. I’m around for questions. Thank you for your time and attention. [more…]

Those looking for more details can find documentation on the IndieWeb wiki at https://indieweb.org/Getting_Started_on_WordPress, or https://boffosocko.com/2018/04/27/setting-up-wordpress-for-indieweb-use/

I’m also happy to help people set things up and make alternate suggestions via video chat or you can find online help in the IndieWeb WordPress chat.

Those who are paying attention at #PressEdConf20 will see the value in webmention for allowing cross-site interactions without the need for “social media”. WithKnown, Drupal, Grav, and other CMSes are capable of doing this too.

(Ownership of your Open Pedagogy Anyone? Who needs invasive corporate social media to interact online now?)

Others at #PressEdConf20 with Webmentions can reply to your posts on their sites. Replies will show up in comments depending on settings. Bridgy will also find responses to your content on Twitter & syndicate those back to your website automatically.

(Give it a whirl!: Reply to any of the posts in this Twitter thread to see the comments boomerang back to the comment section of my website.)

Now write all of your posts in your presentation as status updates (without titles) and include any media (photos, videos, etc.) making sure to mark up the photos with a class of u-photo in the HTML. Don’t forget the hashtag #PressEdConf20.

Authenticate your website and Twitter account with Bridgy and enable Bridgy publish on your account page: https://brid.gy/twitter/username.

Next we’ll want an account on Brid.gy for Twitter. This will allow us to publish from our website to Twitter; it will also allow us to reverse syndicate reactions  from #PressEdConf20 on Twitter back to our posts using Webmention.

(Publishing this way will require Microformats: Your theme will need the proper microformats support to use this method, but again other methods are available.)

One could manually syndicate content from WordPress to Twitter, but there are multiple plugins and ways to syndicate it. My favorite is the Syndication Links plugin, which we can use for syndicating to other services. Install and activate. #PressEdConf20
