There is this German joke about “WLAN-Kabel” (WiFi-cable) ** that goes with #Neuland (Germans mocking about Internet and technology still being uncharted territory*).
Yes, they do!
There is [Wayback/Archive] IWLAN RCoax Cable | Industrial Wireless LAN | Siemens Global:

It looks like I missed that Google has added a new URL parameter to its search engine quite a while ago.
In the past, you could turn on image search using the tbm=isch URL parameter (“to be matched” and “image search”).
That still works, but there is a new parameter on the block that is officially undocumented, and can be used to switch into various search modes including image search but also AI-less search.
This drastically lowers the carbon footprint and also gets you far less speculative information.
Edit 20251023: I forgot to save the below part before the scheduled post got published. So here we go

One reason I still use Twitter is that it trumps keyboard shortcuts over other social media I use.

Hopefully by now (given Spare Karen’s moves), this still exists: [Wayback/Archive] Moa
Link your Mastodon account to Twitter with Moa Bridge.
Documentation and updates are on [Wayback/Archive] Home — Moa Party
Welcome to the Moa Party!
Moa is open source server code that enables cross-posting between networks such as Mastodon, Twitter, and other networks. The main server runs at https://moa.party, and is maintained as a public utility.
This site is the Moa Party: used for status updates, documentation, and news from the maintainers.
You can also run your own instance as it is open source at [Wayback/Archive] FedStoa / moa · GitLab (formerly at [Wayback/Archive] FedStoa/moa: A Mastodon, Twitter, and Instagram Cross-poster).

I bumped into [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy Fed a while ago. The highlights:
@bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy.@example.com@web.brid.gy.@ap.brid.gy.example.com.web.brid.gy.Source is written in Python and HTML. It is available from [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – snarfed/bridgy-fed: 🌉 A bridge between decentralized social network protocols.
The blog post re-introducing it: [Wayback/Archive] Re-introducing Bridgy Fed | snarfed.org.
There is docs too: [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy Fed: docs
Bridgy Fed is a kind of a spin-off from the longer existing [Wayback/Archive] Bridgy which has documentation at [Wayback/Archive] About – Bridgy and source code at [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – snarfed/bridgy: 📣 Connects your web site to social media. Likes, retweets, mentions, cross-posting, and more….
Via [Wayback/Archive] Ionica Smeets (@ionica.mathstodon.xyz.ap.brid.gy) — Bluesky who’s primary social media presence is at [Wayback/Archive] Ionica Smeets (@ionica@mathstodon.xyz) – Mathstodon.
I created my [Wayback/Archive] wiert.me profile – Bridgy Fed which resulted in these two entities (that by the time you read this should have some updates):

I quickly hacked together this JavaScript Bookmarklet today, so it is without any checks and assumes you have enabled one Mastodon account for publishing, that you are hosting your blog on WordPress.com, and using the Classic Editor:
javascript:(function(){ publicizeFormEditHref = document.getElementById('publicize-form-edit'); publicizeFormEditHref.click(); mastodonCheckboxes = document.getElementsByClassName('wpas-submit-mastodon'); mastodonCheckboxes[0].checked = true; publicizeFormHideHref = document.getElementById('publicize-form-hide'); publicizeFormHideHref.click(); updateButtonHref = document.getElementById('publish'); updateButtonHref.click(); })();
The above code is the state of [Wayback/Archive] JavaScript Bookmarklet for the WordPress classic editor which enables mastodon publishing (assuming you have one mastodon publishing account enabled … ) and due to be improved in a later blog post.
This will enable the currently edited post to be published to Mastodon, then update/publish the post.
On enabling one Mastodon account for publishing:
