#introduction
Hi there! My name is Scott Starkey, and I'm a Clojure back-end developer for CataBoom, a gamification marketing company. In my spare time, I'm also a part-time professional magician and a probably psychic entertainer.

Other interests include the international language Esperanto, board games (design and playing). I'm an illustrator / cartoonist for my game design projects.

I came across blog (RSS) to Mastodon in a topic recently, and am now seriously considering it, with a Karl Volt-style "built to last" mentality -- read Mastodon via -feeds, post to via my . Any killer suggestions? @publicvoit

Coming across another " vs " thread, I just have to ask, how is vscode at doing email? How about RSS feeds? Spreadsheets? Daily agendas? Because emacs is very, very good at those...

Sometimes you want the power of text, sometimes you want the power of data.

In org-mode buffer there is no trade-off, we have both!

Indeed the content of an org-mode buffers is not only TEXT...

IT IS ALSO DATA.

The thing about ghosts in the machine is that sometimes they just fix themselves as suddenly as they broke.

I can't help but notice many toots from helpful newbies encouraging you to support the Mastodon Patreon.

It's fine to do that but understand it goes to just two big instances and the official Mastodon dev team.

It does NOT trickle down to YOUR instance. If you want to support your server, donate to it directly. Nearly all the costs of the explosive growth of the past few weeks is borne by local instances.

Mastodon is decentralized. There is no Mastodon Inc. This is not Twitter.

"Elon Musk wants every Twitter employee sending weekly updates about their work via email now"

Elmo's escalating the level of crazy. Or there must be very few people left at Twitter if the CEO can afford to waste time on such trivial and meaningless bullshit.

OTOH, this would be a great use-case for malicious compliance ✌️

It's past 1994, Spotify. Who has no "history" view, to find that 1 of 3 *not most recent* podcast episodes I listened to, which I want to share from this morning?

The way Mastodon is working out so well for me is causing me to reflect on why Twitter never really did.

It was likely my own fault, because of how I reacted to needing to build a name for myself on a platform based on so heavily on clout.

I always remember to check my agenda. But I have a cheat "catch all" perpetual task that I spend hours on when I'm really reading articles or doom scrolling...

Mastodon is another example of a service that works great in Emacs. I'm posting this from mastodon.el!

Is there a good way to post to a instance via email?

last week my started having severe issues (which is a major work issue), apparently not loading a crucial file. Today I was having problems with my bluetooth headphones, too; connected but not seen as an audio device. Suddenly everything is working again. I don't know why.

Well, lets see if they care anymore if I expose this shit on twitter. If you have an account there feel free to show some support:

To Dos:
- Hammock time and think about ...
- ... how to create a XTDB query (Datalog) programmatically

I don’t understand why people think Mastodon is difficult. It seems pretty straightforward, and the separate servers are no biggie. I’m enjoying this fresh start here, like moving to a new apartment!
