As a whole we need to stop using the term “fake news”.

  1. It legitimizes the term that a moron started using as a defense mechanism for his bullshit.
  2. Fake news is not a thing, it’s called a lie.
  3. It de-emphasizes the gravity of the misinformation.

Mojave Public Beta 4 is more like Dev Beta 1 than Dev Beta 1 was..

Lisening to yourself on a podcast = 😱

Fotunately, no one else will hear it. Right..?! 🤣

I have been making some Siri Shortcuts. Couple things that could be nice additions to Shorcuts.app.

  • Copy & Paste of ‘code blocks’
  • Multi-select drag & drop of ‘code blocks’
  • Code folding
  • Folders for organizing Shortcuts
  • iCloud sync of Shortcuts

If you use Things 3 on macOS, you might want to hold off on Mojave Public Beta 4. Something is causing it to crash on launch (for me at least).

Here we go! PB4!

A Word of warning

If you add any of the IKEA HomeKit lights to your house, they may become possessed with spirits.

Anyone have some ‘focus’ I can borrow today..?

I want an OLED panel on my MacBook before any kind of touch input.

12-15" of iPhone X display! drool

Really, if pressed, what I really want is something in the middle, a 13" iPad X. 🙏

Wowie! 😯

Episode 8 brings a shortcut to quickly grab a webpage and send it to Feedbin for sub.

Siri Shortcuts - Episode 8

Shortcut Name: Send RSS feed to Feedbin
Revision: 1.0
Add to Shortcuts!

What does it do?
Accepts a given Safari page (via share sheet), and subscribe to it with Feedbin.

How does it work?

  1. Use the share sheet to send the URL of the current webpage to the Shortcut.
  2. Then convert the URL to text.
  3. Use regex to insert [feedbin.com prior to the input URL.
    Example: http://burk.io becomes [feedbin.com
  4. Open the newly formatted URL in Safari, allowing you to add tags within Feedbin.

Micro.blog Archives!

With the recent addition of the “Archives” feature, there is now a simple way to see a chronological flow of all posts made to your timeline. The archive section is automatically created at your.domain/archive. There is no pagination within the Archive section, giving you the ability to see the entire timeline of your entries on a single screen. I have a mix of ~900 short and long posts in my timeline, and it scrolls and flows nicely (keeping in mind that it only displays Titles and clickable date links), so there shouldn’t be any performance issues for the vast majority of users it seems. @Manton has a considerably more substantial amount of posts, so I am sure you torture tested the feature before releasing it since he hosts his own content on Micro.blog now!

Ideas for future iterations of the Archive feature

  • Ability to see thumbnails inline for photo only posts.
  • A mechanism for curating ‘special’ posts and bubbling to a highlighted section. https://burk.io/posts
  • Option for changing the location & name of the link in the navigation.
  • Foldable/Collapsible lists by Year, Month.
  • Add / Edit page title.
  • A link in Footer.
  • Toggle to hide/show Archive in Nav and/or Footer.

*some of this stuff is doable by the end user with some code modifications/additions/deletions, but the goal here is to make it as user-friendly as possible for the whole m.b community
