Chilling with #bubblino and friends at @DoESLiverpool post #makefest brunch

@evan feels like it'd be a good way to allow folk a choice of where their data flows.

I haven't hooked any up yet, but it's only a matter of time.

#Bubblino (https://mcqn.com/ibal12) will be connected to the @MCQN_Ltd notifications fairly soon, although that might be more of a Mastodon connection rather than pure ActivityPub

Bubblino

A physical bubble machine, connected to Twitter.You program it to let it know what to search for and whenever it finds a new tweet matching your criteria it blows bubbles to alert you.

@arthrowl @amcewen It would be the @MCQN_Ltd way.

We might use it as the nudge to finish upgrading #Bubblino. The whirring of motors and bubbles is a little gentler for a shared office (and with a bell the coffee drinkers would keep thinking there was fresh coffee ready 🤣 )

There's a new #ESP8266-based #PCB sat on @amcewen's desk waiting for it.

In fact, with all the #RSS support in #Mastodon it would be almost like going back to the old days (when Twitter search was RSS!)
