Manton: “The way I think about RSS.chat is that it’s a bootstrap for getting lots of RSS feeds to play well together, for both posts and replies. Can the web be the social network? Yes. And Micro.blog should be part of anything working toward that goal.” #

I have Claude update me on all posts on both RSS.chat sites when we start for a day. I read them all when they’re posted, but one was in German, which Claude automatically translated for me, and it’s an interesting question. Which I have answered. #

Anyway, one of those streaming services I get now is Paramount+ which is owned by the Ellisons, which I don’t like, but they have a show that is really excellent esp if you like British crime stories, which I most definitely do, even if most of the actors are American, and it probably was recorded in Vancouver or in Queens. It’s called, unimaginatively, The Agency, as in the Central Intelligence Agency. The story is fine, but what really sets it apart is the quality of the acting and production. Beautifully filmed, better to watch it on a nice big screen set with good audio. Two seasons only, but if you want to know the kind of TV I like, this is it. #

I have Spectrum cable and they recently started unbundling the cable services they provide. So I have a bunch of streaming services that I never decided to follow, and haven’t gotten in the habit of checking them. Not sure if I like this, but I certainly understand why the bill is so high and seems to always be going higher? Not sure why that is. But it’s hard to get through to them. #

I see the new Game of Thrones series just completed it third season. I tried getting into it, and couldn’t. But then I didn’t get going in the original series for the first few attempts. People say this show is good, so I will probably give it another try. #
