So I took a break from using google products for a while. Last year I gave in and started using Jamboard. Fortunately since then I've picked up enough html to think I can clap together a tackboard for myself with plenty of space to make it pretty later. If I want to access it from just one computer, I can leave it in the file systems and run those internal files on a browsing program (life firefox) like any other .html website. If I want to be able to access it anywhere I'm logged into my home wifi, I can host it from a turned on device (a computer or a phone), or even maybe on a hard drive plugged into the router (some mid grade to fancy ones have usb ports for simple storage) It will be kind of clunky, but a fun project to improve the look and input options over time, and as long as I back up the files periodically, I don't have to worry about people out of town adding software migrations to my life. I think it's a reasonable goal to have more direct control over more of the computing tools I use, insofar as I can. I think a lot of accessibility has been taken off the internet and out of our cultural communication about how the 'net works... and with a little curiosity and flexibility, users can add that back for themselves perhaps.

Tumblr media
First, thanks to all of you by so sooooo much for caring and sticking around, you are amazing sapient individuals and deserve my praise for it.
Now, I want to make myself and my income future-proof. So, don't mind if I start creating and selling a few products on a few online storefronts? I am still making free stuff for you all to enjoy, I just want to develop some more usefulness and improve upon my skills going forward.

Best idea a cryptobro has ever had
This is actually a good idea when you think about it: to segregate Web3 into its own DNS system and protocols, so that Neocities/Spacehey/Retroweb-type stuff has its space to shine on the REAL Internet. Cryptobro bantustan. (Also makes Web3 shit easier for sane sysadmins and/or BOFHs to block.) https://w3url.w3eth.io/#/
I wholly support this, if only so the cryptobros get to play with their own broken pay-to-win internet, while we're having fun, making friends, and doing things that actually have reach on the REAL internet.

Support Our #creatives Tours the Studio Backlot
Introduction
A backlot is an area behind or adjoining a movie studio, containing permanent exterior buildings for outdoor scenes in filmmaking or television productions, or space for temporary set construction. I will relay how I became familiar with the look and purpose of a backlot.
Back to the ’70s – Learning about Backlots
I visited California for the first time in 1974. My primary/only…

Mackerelmedia Fish is an odd, fun, retroweb adventure
[ad_1]
Bet you didn’t expect to be reading about a game named after deprecated multimedia platform Macromedia Flash in 2020.
Mackerelmedia Fishis the latest creation of indie designer Nathalie Lawhead, in which you play an internet archaeologist exploring a crumbledown website as it falls to bits around you. There are minigames tucked away within it, and a big fish to find, as well as a rat who…
