Thinking Allowed
This is a People First post that was originally on the People First domain. It has been moved here as part of my domain consolidation program. It’s a steady and slow WIP as I check each entry, so do please bear with me.Why is it so hard to resize, align right and remove drop shadow on an image in MicroBlog? I’ve lost count of the iterations I have tried.
For example this one looks fine in Mars Edit and then … well - click through to this to see what I mean.
A couple of useful help links that I am dropping in here to revisit.

🔗 How to Remove Amazon Kindle Ebook DRM in 2023 … thankyou @pcora
Notes is once more becoming part of my information storage solution. It was already pretty good - but with what I sense is coming later this year - thought I would push some stuff around in ther again. Adding a horizontal line is still ridiculously not easy. BUT I found this, which is a pretty good hack that works.

Turns out that ' " ' is apparently not the same at all as ' “ ' !!!

Language is one of the 8 pillars of People First thinking where we explore the subtle art of manipulating conversation and dialogue through the careful choice of words. It’s rampant.

For a while I have been using Bookmarks to (inconsistently) mark posts where someone in the community has offered help on some aspect of Micro Blog or related services that I had been stuck with. Meanwhile I also had a new category - called ‘help’. So - the last few posts allowed me to unbookmark the posts in question and it is now indexed on my Help category. This is definitely NOT a replacement for the excellent help resources that already exist …
TIL - thank you @SimonWoods
Custom MicroBlog - thank you @miraz @jsonbecker @hall
Are there any others? (Let me know in the comments and I will add.)
That said, maybe there is something here you might find useful and interesting. (As of February 18th, it is a short list - but I am currently re indexing my back catalogue, so I expect a few more will surface as I go.)
