Please see the current “activity” in the Social CG mailing list.

To me “forking the ActivityPub spec.” sounds terrible.

@mattl Madonna’s “Rain” video features a lot of NeXTs and NeXTstep UI - in a Japanese setting: https://youtu.be/1Fft-VGUIfc

I’d like to see a set of simple 1-3 piece models available for each army or at least in a starter set. Ways to play the game should be as accessible as possible. Make the rules and army lists free. Sell books if you want but focus on the miniatures and the game. I’d also like to see a return of Epic scale miniatures.

Hoping we’ll see 10th edition. It’s been so long since I’ve played a game thanks to disinterest, pandemic and more. I picked up the 2nd edition (1993) starter models recently and have my squats/Votann. I’m hoping to pick up the Army Painter new Speedpaint set. I also have a ton of marines and Necrons to assemble and paint.

Who else is staying up late for this #warhammer40k event in about 90 minutes?

@helge do we know if she ever used D’OLE?

What’s your favorite obscure computer in a TV or movie? I’m a huge fan of starringthecomputer.com

@hammerron It's very different to when I last used it in the early 2000s.

One of the big takeaways from when we built Flattr almost a decade ago is:

It can be harder to get people to accept money than to get people to give money.

If one believe money to be important in creating eg a sustainable open source movement, then one needs to work at least as hard on getting people to accept and use money as on getting people to spend that money.

This is especially important to create a positive self-reinforcing loop where all actors can see the benefits in practice.

@chris thanks!

Okay, time to jump on that World Wide Web and make a homepage.

@donncha @chris @pfefferle yes, I understand that.

The next step in AP adoption is letting people with personal accounts, like me, enable ActivityPub on .com. I hope that's high on the priority list!

I asked when that would be coming, and Chris replied "now", which wasn't true.

That's interesting. I've been having a lot as snacks lately, so less than a week.

@davidjoyner does that extend to programmers?

@chris @donncha @pfefferle I don't think that's true. When I go to the AP screen on WordPress.com, I am asked to upgrade to a business account.

@nighten ohhhh

@mstrmustache also, mustaches are cool. Good handle.
