#handles

I don't think enough attention is paid to the humble leather handle.
These handles take many steps and much time to complete but will last generations. Two handles are cut, along with four pieces of stiff leather filler. The hardware is riveted onto the handles. The filler pieces are glued over these rivets on either sides of the handles. The filler pieces are trimmed, top and bottom to even them out and round the tops. A rectangular piece of leather is "cased" (dampened with water), formed around each handle and stretched to accommodate the curves. These are clamped and allowed to dry. The handles are dyed to coordinate with the case they being fastened to, stitching holes are punched and then the covering is stitched on with contrasting waxed thread. The raw edge, along the top, is trimmed, sanded even and smooth and then edge finished to seal and refine. #LeatherCraft #handles #HandMade #Bags #Cases

(6/N) A final set of prompts, for three more categories. Add the related data "assets" that come to your mind to your spreadsheet:

#Geospatial data

#Infrastructure

#Accounts and #handles

  • Email & Messaging (including content)
  • Social media
  • Cloud
  • Pseudonyms & personas…

Remember many data "assets" will fall into multiple categories. For every asset, leave a checkmark in all applicable category columns.

Continued thread

(4/N) Having reflected a bit on your abstract assets, try to brainstorm as many of your related data and device assets as possible. Most of them will fall into one or more of the following categories:

For instance, your smartphone photo collection "asset" probably contains geospatial data (#GPS coordinates in #EXIF); data and metadata (phone brand and model, in EXIF); potentially also information about your social graph, in case your family, friends or acquaintances are on your photos.

It's probably best to track your data and device assets in a spreadsheet, with the above categories as additional columns, so you can place a checkmark, where appropriate. I'd also suggest to add a column to track where the data is stored / the device is located.

Here's a little list of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), to get you started (other categories in next posts):

Aus aktuellem Anlass eine Bitte an alle hier im #Fediverse
Denkt bitte daran, dass wir der Algorithmus sind - jede:r Einzelne von uns. Das ist der Unterschied und den müssen wir leben!
Deshalb ist es wichtig, die inhaltlichen und auch institutionellen Bezüge durch #Hashtags und die Adressierung von #Handles auch auf anderen Instanzen sichtbar zu machen.
Folgt Hashtags, die Euch interessieren. Lasst Euch benachrichtigen. Teilt, was immer für Andere aus Eurer Blase interessant sein könnte.
Danke!

Have you got a cute account name, with emojis, and symbols.

Here's what it sounds like..

They probably aren't using #AltText either? That's their screen name, and Hello.. listen to it every reply?

Cute for sighted people.

Did anyone think of how screen readers, for visually impaired, read your replies? If you did, blind people might reply to you, if a simple Hello wasn't so untenable?

I'm definitely getting more used to being a pool toy ring. Now to test out my new flotation prowess at the beach! Why not a pool? Because this is the background I drew, that's why!

When you're choosing a username, it's probably a good idea to include something that makes sense in a sentence when people @ you.

Because Mastodon and many other Fedi platforms only show the username by default (and not the server name part), a generic username is difficult to use in discussions.

For example:

It's easy to discuss PixelFed because the account's content is obvious from its username. You can say "Have you checked out @pixelfed? It's a photo sharing platform."

If you use a generic username like "me" or "news" or "updates" or whatever, it tends to cause confusion and doesn't really work when used in a sentence. It sort of forces people to add in brackets what your account actually represents.

Some people with their own servers think their addresses are distinct enough, but because the last part of the address is hidden by default the username needs distinctiveness too.
