@pluralistic sounds like an interesting and useful project - will get back to you

@pluralistic do you have code or some kind of plugin which automates posting the threads? Can you share it with me? Depending on the complexity of the existing solution, I can probably pull something together if that would be a benefit for you and your readers. My suggestion would be moving the long threads to a different account, and then boosting the initial post of each thread on your existing account.

@codinghorror I don't follow @pluralistic because I don't want the huge threads in my feed. But it feels like I'm missing out from seeing Cory's writing at all - as well as any interesting boosts, replies, or other posts. I always thought that a reasonable tradeoff would be to post the long threads to a separate Mastodon account, and boost the first post from the "main" account. That seems like a benefit for everyone.

At some point in my life, gigabit wifi and 2TB microSD cards became a thing. And I have no memory of when that was. I still have and use the 16GB USB drive that blew my mind 10 years ago

🕯On 2 August 1944, around 4,300 Roma and Sinti were murdered in Auschwitz-Birkenau, ending of the so-called ‘Gypsy family camp’.

This was part of the Roma Holocaust, which took over 500,000 lives.

Today we honour the memory of victims & stand against prejudice of Romani people.

👨🏼‍🏫With the Council of Europe, we're working to bring Roma Holocaust history in school curricula across Europe, so young people can grow up embracing inclusion.

@soatok very difficult to do the re-framing of sexual compulsion as not being a moral failing because that's basically the whole process of recovery - calling it an addiction makes it look like you're doing the work but you get to remain in your masochistic, puritanical mental retreat

A lot of the useful functions of a mobile operating system could be achieved by sticking a web frontend on top of Emacs with Org Mode
