I am seeing more posts and calls for submissions that note “no ai” but it’s ok for brainstorming or storyboarding or blah blah blah… “No ai” should mean just that #noai

“But no one would know…”

Gardening with the right tools is amazing. Always wanted a “serpette.” Opinel doesn’t disappoint. Number 10. #Gardening #Tools #EDC

While reading Murakami’s “The City and its Uncertain Walls” I came across a weird symbol near the spine on page 38. Part of me knows it’s a print artifact, but another hopes it’s more: a mystery; a gateway; a sign. Yeah, that’s how deeply I read. #Writing #WritingCommunity #Reading

Advice from #WritingCommunity #Writing is this weird? Seems a little odd, and maybe too much for me:
“The Author consents to the Publisher (and its successors and assigns):

Although I haven’t used it in a long time, my Instagram account (albeit private) was still active. No more! Deleted this morning. In 30 days it will be gone. I hope it will actually be gone. It will be gone, right? #Privacy #BigTech #noai

Went to a Loblaws store self checkout and found: a) a camera aimed at my face; b) a camera aimed at the scanner; c) ai recognition of items. There were no indications of filming, consent, change or procedure. Therefore, I am no longer a client. It will make life a little more difficult but will make my world a little less Orwellian. #noai #Loblaws #Privacy #Disgust

@TimmyMac either way is fine (converter or refill cartridges) but using the converter gets you writing more quickly as the feed is filled.

@jredlund I agree about some imagery repetition, cut and paste, and also keep in mind this is a “companion” of sorts to Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World. Familiar? Yes. Enjoyable? Yes. YMMV

@downey I was locked out a year ago for no reason (probably VPN use) and was asked to go through Persona to verify. Never. Privacy Hell squared right there. So now I can’t even delete my account! Tried all communication channels but nope… locked out. So now my albeit minimal data floats in the evil æther. #LinkedIn #BrowserGate #Privacy

I need a small favour: can any Tuta user using @Tutanota@mastodon.social make a fake contact with a birthday of April 1. Does the birthday appear in Tuta calendar? Mine seems to glitch and not show any birthday on April 1 (no joke!) Is it just me? Appreciate someone trying it out. #Tuta #help

@stux@mstdn.social Education is a weird thing. It is linked to work vs being linked to personal growth. I would rather be “educated” and have a generalist background than be “schooled” for a specific task. University (the Canadian term) should be for personal growth, critical thinking, how to be a good person in society. I know it isn’t. That’s too bad. #Education #Society
