I have been looking for a way to syndicate from here to Mastodon, and landed on the KnownMastodon plugin. Unfortunately, that did not work for me. I did a bit of digging and discovered that the error was in a piece of Mastodon authorisation code and that cdn has implemented a fix, but that did not seem to have made it into the code I downloaded. Further digging revealed that the fix was actually by crscheid and that even though they had created a proper pull request, that had not been merged either. I did what any sane cargo culter would do, downloaded the fix, stuck it in my site, crossed my fingers and tried again. Lo!

For utterly mysterious reasons my Apple Watch SE lost power from 100% 39 minutes into a three hour hike this morning. Seems fine after a full recharge, but the numbers lie.
Wait, what? You’re in Rome?
Posted my monthly update. I realise that this is a good antidote to me thinking that I have frittered my time away. I haven't, but I need to consider the things I've done to provide myself with a more accurate picture.

I know this is a really unfashionable point of view, but I like daylight savings time. The day’s work is done and there another couple of hours of light to enjoy. I honestly don’t get why some people get so aerated about it.
No. idea what you are talking about. The h1 element is right there, wrapping the words “Why does the Labarum theme not have a header”.

@jeremycherfas Strangely, meant to be a reply to @mandaris but the original post does not appear to be here (yet).

It gave me no pleasure to read Brad DeLong's recent Dealing with Global Warming Over the Next Fifty Years, in which he eviscerates several climate deniers https://braddelong.substack.com/p/dealing-with-global-warming-over
No, wait. It gave me a great deal of pleasure. Do yourself a favour.

@jeremycherfas Well, that sounds like a worthwhile read. Just added it to my read-later list. :)

@jeremycherfas Certainly guys like that muddied the waters but our failure to grasp the urgency of the climate emergency is a much, much larger failure. Corporate media have done an absolutely terrible job of reporting on climate for 30+ years and are still failing at this moment. But the public too is to blame. Certainly the wealthy 10% of westen nations will do anything to avoid thinking or acting on climate. I do not know a single person in my extended family or local community that is taking any responsibility at all. Hardly any interest at all in making any kind of change or taking any kind of action.
This failure will not be the story of the next 50 years. It will be the entire store of our diminished future.

Grammarphobia says it has no clue about the origins of "chumbalone"meaning an idiot, or stupid. https://www.grammarphobia.com/blog/2024/03/chumbolone.html
Maybe I'm an idiot, but I reckon it derives from the Italian ciambellone, like a big pound cake with a hole in the middle. Can anyone confirm?
Or could it be from coglione?
Another test of syndication.

Another walk in the park, but here's the thing -- the bicycle quest was actually marginally closer than the walking one.
Yes! Here for an OAuth event!
