I am proud to announce that for the 1039th day in a row, the Law of Matt Blaze's Replies has been proven true again.
Reminder to feed your blocklist regularly. This is an excellent source for that.

So Google showed off a new feature on their Android keyboard where you can use ASL for dictation. On paper it seems very useful, but when I stopped to think about it it didn't make much sense to me.
Voice dictation has advantages over typing in that it's faster (albeit with less control over the exact transcribed text), and can be done with one hand or sometimes even hands free without looking at the screen. Meanwhile the new ASL dictation is still faster with less control, but seemingly requires three hands (one of them can be a mount) and to look at the screen while you use both hands for signing. In what situations would this be better than typing?
Can I get any thoughts on this from any deaf/mute people? Or even from hearing/voiced people who use voice dictation, as I almost never use that feature. It's entirely possible I missed something, but my current analysis is that it's yet another flashy yet ultimately useless feature.

(if you're not a fan of cakes, or wish to not see them all go by this weekend, you might consider doing a 3day #mute on my account. )
Participation sounds like it'll be pretty high, if the poll participation was anything to go by!

@DJGummikuh @BleepingComputer I can see you too have your brain in gear... 😘

If you don't disable comments but never answer mine, I #mute you. Not spite — just not spending #empathy on someone who has none to spare.
Mutual friends get a pass, always. #Friendship survives silence; strangers' pride doesn't earn my time.
Heroes of my book learned that fast, before they even had words for it: who's worth answering, who isn't.
Where's your line for muting?

The great thing about muting someone that annoys you is that you never see their later posts so there's never a reason to regret muting them.

@Walrus @mattsheffield I can see that my next reply would be repeating an argument... and have a personal rule for that: #mute
... confirming your insight. 😎

I think I'll #mute all that dreadful #WorldCup stuff. It’s getting more and more repulsive. #Fifa #Soccer #Fflootball

Too many times I forget that I can simply mute or block someone and not let them nest in my mind.
It's such a relief to get them out of my sight. 😊

@c_dan4th yup, on first breeze through all the iOS app settings I don’t see any way to edit my #mute filters.
How about it @IceCubesApp ?

@riffraff Well, I have a rule: when I find myself about to repeat an argument, there is no use in talking any further... at all. 😘

'Virtue Signaling' as in standing up for human decency? Like that's a bad thing? You're the troll

@mattblaze occasionally notes the problems of the Mastodon HOA, mostly when they attack him for absolutely no comprehensible reason. Today was one such.
You can reliably assume that a bunch of mastoscolds will turn up in the replies to his (reasonable) description of what happened, downplaying the problem, insisting it's not that big a deal, that "you just block them, man, problem solved", or even threatening not to respond to his posts anymore (Don't you threaten me with a good time!).
And (finally) my point: those replies are an *excellent* source of accounts to mute or block. Problem solved, indeed.

To search for
@mastodon.hongkongers.net
it looks like it might be Canadian, given all the CBC profiles it's running
Going to find one that looks like a major origin and #Mute #Block and #DomainBlock
mmm... no
Given this:
https://fediverse.observer/mastodon.hongkongers.net
it's Chinese
(Guess "hongkongers.net" should have been a tipoff)
Thanks for the tip...

OK
Wait
Are these some kind of #Meme or something
I've already seen too many and haven't been paying close attention but I thought they were pretty much one clown
Thanks for the tip
I'll continue to #Mute, #Block, and #DomainBlock on sight, as appropriate
If I want high school posts i'll go back to #Twitter
Bye...

"would there be interest in a Fediverse bot that posts Fox News headlines from their RSS feed?"
Abso-fucking-lutely not
I really don't understand why some people want to assume that other people are less well-informed than they apparently are
#FOXNews is neither news nor the source of any content that *I* need to keep up with, speaking only for myself
FOX News is pure Murdoch-Ailes-Carlson trash dreck
If FOX News appears in any #Mastodon feed I see, out comes the #BanHammer
#Mute, #Block, #DomainBlock if needed
