I imagine that many of y'all will be setting up computers that don't run the same operating system over the next several days. At PCMag, I explain why installing the free, open-source file-transfer app LocalSend should be among those setup chores.
This Free App Makes Transferring Files Between Devices Ridiculously Easy
LocalSend is an open-source app that provides device-to-device transfers between Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux. Here's how it can help you send holiday snaps, work files, and more.

I'm quite literally open to anything, but man would it also be sick to find any of these roles in the entertainment, gaming, comic, tabletop, etc... spheres at all. I can dream, huh?
That being said, if anyone happens to have any leads on roles in editorial, comms, PR, or community management, I'd appreciate a link! I'm trying to move out of content writing.

Should I make this with the Hellmann's plant-based fake mayo for no-egg-nog? 🤔

It makes me so happy to see @janeespenson.bsky.social's name in the credits of the newest episode of Fallout.
In college I introduced friends to Buffy, and they watched many episodes on 1.5x speed. Except if they saw her name in the credits — then it was an "Espensode" and must be watched at 1x.

Oooo a good mystery for social media to solve
There’s a bunch of gift tags hung up at church where you can buy a gift for someone and at least three girls requested what looks to say “Riley All 4” and we cannot figure out what that is.
Google is no help.
Any ideas?

apparently they also broke Form Notifications, their in-house email notification extension (to email respondent and to form owner). workspace.google.com/marketplace/...

[About Same sex ice dance becoming a thing]: I really can't wait to have people explore that. And I always have found that having the visual representation goes such a long way in terms of changing or impacting a sport.

Not sure how many years I can take credit for having convinced* Rollacrit to sponsor a Desert Bus prize pack, but I figure at least 2, so hey! Another giveaway that I helped make happen! 😂
*It did not take hardly any convincing at all, I literally just said it and they went right for it.

i understand this framing but i think it's inaccurate. i think we never figured this out at all. Google figured out how to monetize the open web, and publishers were secondary beneficiaries. But at no point were publishers ever actually fully in charge of their monetization, like in the print era.
We just spent the last 25 years of the internet figuring out how to monetize content.
This has been a HUGE transformation for publishing (journalism and other kinds!) and key to it it was the rise of "search engine optimization" or SEO, but also general cross-linking and promotion.
