I am rearranging my social media accounts! (Thrilling, I know.)

@iona - public account, mostly to do with radio and geography and anything else I've spotted around and find interesting/fun.

@iona - personal account, followers-only, for personal stuff and politics.

Thank you!

@bleeptrack No, you need business succulents. Succulents in little pots with your details printed on them.

No one will ever throw one of those away. πŸ‘

If you are a musician or sound artist and you urgently need 'native' support for audio uploads on mastodon, you can (and please do!) vote (thumbs up) or ideally write a short comment on the issue on github: "Allow users to post audio files #4827"

It looks like support is almost there but still not really implemented. Votes for this can raise the priority of this much needed feature.

Allow users to post audio files Β· Issue #4827 Β· tootsuite/mastodon

It is currently possible to attach up to four pictures or one video to a toot. However, it's not possible to add an audio file to a post. I suggest we add the possibility for users to attach au...

Does anyone want the domain name radiosocial.org transferred to them?

It expires soon and I don't want to renew it. If you would like it for free just let me know by Friday (05/04/2019) and we can sort out a transfer.

@c0debabe I remember years ago, our local radio station used to do Prank Calls, not for April Fool's but all year.

They were never particularly funny but I remember one in particular where they pretended to be someone's boss and told them they lost their job. It was awful.

The radio station was taken over recently and closes next month. Karma.

I hate having to do this, but I've done a full month of work and haven't been paid. The extra expense of travelling to work has left me with Β£14 in the bank, with direct debits due to come out on Monday.

I can't get an answer on when I'll be paid, so I'm in line for bank fees for rejected direct debits through no fault of my own.

I assumed I'd get paid, so I've budgeted on that basis and I'm in trouble. Please can anyone help?

@megfault Ask me how that's going. Go on, dare you. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§
@mala Yeah... no. Whatever happens with Internet copyright law it's not nearly as much of a threat to people as a disorderly Brexit.

@flussence @Freyaday My main email for 12 years has been a .eu domain. I've spent the past *year* moving everything off it - banking, government account, social media, all the random internet accounts that you accrue online over the years.

I've switched to posteo.net, a German provider of 10 years standing. I'm done with having my own domain for email - I thought it was the stable option but this has proven otherwise.

If you’re a UK resident or citizen, and don’t want #Brexit, sign this official petition: Revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/241584

Petition: Revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU.

The government repeatedly claims exiting the EU is 'the will of the people'. We need to put a stop to this claim by proving the strength of public support now, for remaining in the EU. A People's Vote may not happen - so vote now.
