Follow for boosts and posts about technology, LGBTQ+ news, and wide-ranging nerd stuff. I technically do SEO, but Google fanbois will not be tolerated.

"We criticise children for not going outside โ€“ while curtailing their freedoms and closing their spaces... the media landscape is dominated by news sources that mock and vilify young people as woke softies while also criminalising them."

Any interest out there in an open source, self-hostable SEO crawling solution--maybe something in the vein of sitebulb or screaming frog, but open source? Or have recommendations of something to try?

Greenflare is the only real open source SEO crawler I've been able to find, and I pretty quickly ran into limitations that made it not feasible for my needs. Curious if there's any community interest, or if everyone is satisfied with the existing stacks?

It's very hot out today and will be this way for several days.

Please do me a favor and checkon your homeless neighbors. Make sure they got some hydration and a bite to eat. Something as simple as a candy bar and a bottle of water can turn someone's day around.

Do/Have you used a CD/DVD/Bluray in a while?

What about burning a disk?

I'm surveying modern day awareness/usage of optical media, mostly to confirm some demographic theories, so if you know what a CD/DVD is, please help me (and maybe others) out by answering some ~10 questions here:

And then please boost for better visibility! Thank you!

"headless macbooks" has got to be one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard, but somehow I love it.

Exploring the weird world of 'Headless' MacBooks

This video is sponsored by Pulseway, the only tool IT pros will ever need! Get started for FREE today! https://www.pulseway.com/land/luke-miani Over the past year or so I've noticed an increase in so-called 'headless MacBooks'... With display replacements for a cracked MacBook screen sometimes running in the hundreds of dollars- more than the value of many machines, people have turned to running their MacBooks as desktops without a screen attached! This means you can still use your mouse and keyboard (and battery) for a minimal setup. But how practical is this concept? Today I bought a cheap MacBook off eBay to try it out for myself!

โ€œThis reality continues to worsen as Democrats join with Republicans to stigmatize and mock masks, while themselves failing to wear them, even during surges brought on by new variants.โ€ https://www.thegauntlet.news/p/silence-from-prominent-left-outlets
Silence from prominent left outlets continues as mask bans spread

Eugenics has been successfully mainstreamed by libertarian think tanks, yet many popular left-wing journalists look on indifferently.
