Shawshank (Void If Removed)Good morning everyone. It’s gonna be a hot one today, if the forecast is to be believed. It looks like it’s gonna be hot for the next week or so. Yay, summer is here. Coffee is brewing, and I think…
Hope you had a good catch. Found real treasures on such sales before 🙂 Sadly in most cases I couldn’t afford the purchase too xD
Viele Menschen sehen das Folgende anders, aber das hier ist meine Meinung und ich bin auf den Austausch mit Euch gespannt. XMPP zeigt leider alle Nachteile, die eine Föderation mit sich bringt. Es...
Spannend, den Vergleich Fediverse zu XMPP oder Mail habe ich noch nie gezogen. Vermutlich liegt es daran dass ich heute “nur” noch das Fediverse wirklich auf dem Radar habe. Nirgendwo sonst habe ich über die letzten Jahre so viele tolle Menschen gefunden und mich rege mit ihnen austauschen können, ohne von der Platform selbst dabei angenervt zu werden. Auch nicht im Indieweb. Wobei die Grenzen hier zusehens verschwimmen, wenn mehr und mehr Blogs eben Webmentions _und_ ActivityPub sprechen. Warum auch nicht?
(Und mit Webmention Support wäre dieses Kommentar auch nicht nur ein oller Trackback für Dirk ;-))
We should have known better. Five days ago I wrote that the dishwasher we originally ordered wouldn't fit in our kitchen and thus went back to the shop we bought it from. Then we quickly decided to order another one, to be delivered a week from now. The gamble we took was
Oh my.. when did we reach peak-dishwashers? 😅
Jan-Lukas Else (jlelse.blog)Zan in his recent article with tips on blogging: Some people blog just to blog, but I find that the most interesting blogs are the ones where blogging is just a tool of capture. You should start a new hobby or improve your current skills and blog about them. Blogging should be a by-product of an act...
Depends on the scope, I guess. Mine is like yours too. It’s like a public diary that may be of use for others but it’s primary for myself.
It’s perfectly valid to go for a more themed approach e.g. for establishing a brand or community.
As long as there is a feed I’m happy 😅
@edent (shkspr.mobi)I received a rather distraught DM from a Twitter friend last week. They were upset that I was following an account which did nothing but spew out racist bile all day long. Did this mean that I endorsed their hateful views. I was confused. I didn’t recognise the specific account, and didn’t recal...
@edent we used to call this “Kreis-Hygiene” / “Circle-Hygiene” going back to G+ when we “circled” friends.
It’s like teeth brushing but with followings. It has to be done on occasion. Especially over the last year 🙁
This is not only to sort out far right voters or Covid deniers. Often it’s also to find out that a dear account went silent and moved on and the note about it was simply missed. Nobody re-reads yesterdays news.
Like many of you, I’m inundated with spam calls. I’ve suffered endless car accidents, my National Insurance Number has been suspended multiple times, and my broadband will be cut off imminently. Wouldn’t be nice to screen out all the fraudsters? So I’ve set up a Bananaphone. When people ring...
Hahahaha, that’s pure evil. I love it. 💍💍🍌☎
Jan Boddez (jan.boddez.net)I’ve had different blogs over the last few many years, most long gone. Then started this one, in English (which is my second language, or third, depending on your exact definition), because I wanted to share some of the things I, an amateur web developer, encounter as I learn. And learn from your ...
Same 😜
Good thing too. Brain forgets so fast.
Hypolite Petovan (blog.mrpetovan.com)Survival city-building simulators add some tension to an otherwise chill video game genre. But with this tension comes expectations of message that aren’t always fulfilled like Frostpunk masterfully did.
Happy to read that Frostpunk is really as good as I imagined it to be. I really just didn’t purchase it because in that year I purchased Linux games only. Mebbe I’ll eventually get it on a discount some day. I’ve a backlog piled up to play through first 😅
Jan Boddez (jan.boddez.net)I ran into a bit of an issue lately, and it’s to do with the way X-Ray, or rather php-mf2 parses video elements in HTML (i.e., an h-entry). The unfortunate frog I’ll be dissecting is the page at https://beko.famkos.net/2021/05/03/head-tracking-for-x4-foundations-on-linux/. (Sorry!) Its source co...
Heh, sorry for making you jump the hoops @jan
The weird formatting is mostly because this is how Gutenberg wants to format videos. Hacking various sources into this is how I did it before Gutenberg, that would still not allow me to offer different formats (or subtitles). So this is basically a combination of both snippets with the hope that Gutenberg will eventually understand this.
I was delighted to see that Gutenberg would offer an additional CSS for videos now alas it’s added on the wrong tag and you picked exactly that test. Usually I put this manually on all sources. See https://beko.famkos.net/2021/05/15/playing-an-old-sound-box/ for example.
So much pain between the lines and I can even relate. I’ve been on freenode so long too. Can’t even remember when and why I joined but it was probably something Linux related oO
Guess it’s time to close our own little space there too. Don’t think we’ll move somewhere else though. Feels like an era coming to an end.
