Replied to Nous ne sommes pas préparés à ça by Nicolas Lœuillet (nicolasloeuillet.fr)

Publié le 30 juin 20222 août 2022 par Nicolas Lœuillet
On se dit qu’on va seulement s’investir pour sa ville.
On se dit qu’on veut participer aux idées de projets communaux.
Juste regarder.
On se dit que, bon, de toute façon, on ne passera pas. On regardera comment ça fonctionne. Et puis…

Merci pour cet article tout doux sur le rôle d’élu local. Je me tâte à m’investir dans ma nouvelle ville, mais je ne sais pas si tes propos tiennent la route quand on vit dans une ville plus grande – même au niveau du quartier on parle de dizaines de milliers de personnes, et je…

Replied to Fediverse Account Portability And Blocking by @edent@edent (shkspr.mobi)

One of the many great things about the Fediverse (Mastodon, PixelFed, Lemmy, etc) is that your account is portable.
Let’s say you’re bob@social.boring and, one day, you decide to move your account to foxyfun@furryextreme.yif. Well, with a few clicks of a button, all of your old followers are now fol…

I entirely agree with your post, and feel like this is a pretty big problem with most of the Fediverse (with maybe the exception of Mastodon): it was not built with moderation in mind and now that it’s taking off, admins & users are unprepared for many possible types of abuse. One of the many…

testing lemmy comments from wordpress

Replied to Bingo! How to post to Lemmy from Mastodon! – Lemmy (lemmy.ml)

Bingo! How to post to Lemmy from Mastodon! @test [https://lemmy.ml/c/test] Put
the title of the post in the first line. Then tag the lemmy community as though
they are an account. Then tag other people at the end if you want them included.

My turn to test: I’m wondering if posting from my Wordpress website, which is compatible with activitypub, works to post a comment to Lemmy. If that works, I’ll then have to figure out how to create a post in a community 🙂

Replied to Speaking in different languages by Pablo Morales (lifeofpablo.com)

I wrote a post a few weeks ago about writing content in other languages and marking it up using h-entry tags. There is something so satisfying to write in different languages. Different parts of my brain activate and it works differently in each language. I also « become a different » person as each l…

pablo, félicitations pour ta première vidéo et bon courage pour ton apprentissage du français !

Replied to Les « femmes de la communauté LGBTQI+ » by an author (Eldritch Café)

Femmes et queers, la double peine https://tetu.com/2023/02/15/femme-et-queer-la-double-peine-alerte-human-rights-watch/

(Par contre je suis la seule gênée par la formulation « femmes de la communauté LGBTQI+ » ? On dirait une formulation de Science Po à base d’euphémisme, dans la lignée de « handicapable » ou « personne issue de la diversité visible », alors que : « femmes trans, lesbiennes et bies+ » existe)

en général, toute mention de « la communauté LGBTQ+ » me déplaît fortement et me donne moins confiance en ce que je lis. les personnes LGBTQ ne forment pas une communauté unique et homogène, n’ont ni les mêmes besoins, ni les mêmes aspirations. j’ai le sentiment que décrire les personnes LGBTQ comme « une communauté » facilite et justifie…

Replied to https://werd.io/2023/for-a-while-i-was-deeply-into by Ben WerdmullerBen Werdmuller (werd.io)

For a while I was deeply into the podcasting universe, but these days I really just want text that I can consume in my own way, at my own pace, using my own imagination. Call it impatience. But I love that podcasts exist and that so many people make and listen.

Same here, my format preferences really ebb and flow. A podcast with a transcript or with detailed show notes will do the trick beautifully if you want to keep me loyal over several months of years!

I don’t use generalist search engines anymore

Replied to The Tragedy of AI and Google Bard (curtismchale.ca)

After reading Casey Newton’s post on Google playing catch up with AI via Bard I’ve been prompted to complete some thoughts I’ve had brewing about search. When I want to research a new product I no longer go to Google. The clickbait and ill-informed reviews of products are a waste of my time. They reveal […]

Search engines have been my bane recently, especially for product reviews. Actually, I’m afraid that the internet has become an issue of itself these past days. Books are written by AI. Looking for a tutorial on Google will give you badly translated pages that spend 90% of the page on boilerplate information about the product…

Meditation during COVID-19

Replied to The Opposite of Meditation Is Recess & I Need More Recess. by gretchenrubingretchenrubin (gretchenrubin.com)

I’m working on my next book, which is about how to reach the mind through the body and the five senses—because my mind is my body, and my body is my mind. I was drawn to this subject because I wanted to shake myself awake. Too often, I felt numbed, overwhelmed, or absent-minded–or should I […]

In which I discuss how I’ve replaced my meditation routines with recess and fun, during COVID-19.
