Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 19/10/2025I put the entire description for the Lampton coat of arms into Sora to see if it could generate a stained glass pattern. Incredible results. Attached are the notarized description, a commissioned drawing we inherited, and the Sora output. 041

Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 26/11/2024This is super cool. What a neat feature that it pins to the home screen. 010
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 25/11/2024Incredible! What an effort to assemble such vintage tech. 😂 010
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 23/11/2024Transfer complete and password updated. I realized afterward that Bluesky has "App Passwords" that I should have used instead. But overall, very pleased! Nice to have this bit of my history preserved. 110

Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 22/11/2024I was informed by friend @sugaroverflow.com that I can import my Twitter history via blueark.app. Her feed looks comprehensive so I'm giving it a shot. Don't mind the 3 year gap since I last tweeted.blueark.appBlueArkThe new blue land is waiting for you. Bring your stories with BlueArk. 240
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 22/11/2024Probably not... I tried 3 separate times and it's just so darn clunky. If tech people can't figure it out, it's not going to reach critical mass. The Fediverse tech needs to be invisible, but in Mastodon it's in your face all the time. Bsky isn't immune to capitalism but it's at least resistant. 010
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 22/11/2024Nice one @hotsce.com! Whoa, you have some kind of fancy custom handle, neato. 020
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 17/11/2024Hello Bluesky! I heard there's a lot more activity here recently so I'm checking in. Can't wait to put years of content on a new platform that will eventually succumb to capitalism. 140
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 20/09/2022I've had the last straw with @AAAInsurance after unfairly profiling my dog as "vicious" based on race and not behavior or history. Anyone have suggestions for pitbull-friendly home insurance? 000

Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 11/07/2022By directly supporting the most popular contrib reference solution from both Drupal 7 and existing Backdrop sites, we hope to continue to make #BackdropCMS the easiest solution for long-term, continuous support for D7 sites. 000

Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 10/07/2020And regarding project velocity, Drupal has possibly the largest software community in the world. That enables both massive changes and requires bureaucracy. It depends on the change, in many cases Backdrop is faster fix things than Drupal even with it's smaller community. 000
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 10/07/2020Regarding security updates, it's not Backdrop vs. Drupal, it's Backdrop + Drupal together. We coordinate on security releases and reports can go both ways.

Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 06/09/2019For the record this used to be at co2offsets.sustainabletravelinterna… (had it bookmarked). And yes I know I can pay separately but not needing a credit card and using miles seemed like the perfect solution where the travel offset itself. 010
Nate Lampton @quicksketch.org · 06/09/2019Hey @united (cc @aaronstash) what happened to your program to purchase carbon offsets _with miles_? Given the choice for free flights or a clean travel I'll take the latter every time. #ecoskies 110
