@sinbad our house will drop to 11C and maybe colder overnight if we don’t use the heating. Brrrr!

However, I did defrost a muffin by placing it next to my laptop’s output vent! MS Windows FTW!

@GossiTheDog if Microsoft’s CEO has just realized that security is important then they need a new CEO.

@Gargron @arstechnica that’s a low bar.

@fediforum the former but also how can instances fund themselves to create financial stability yet also support potential future growth.

@fediforum funding?

@Gargron because revenue....?

Someone posted this on #Lemmy.

@rysiek so google is the only party in this that sees all of the data. “All your data are belong to Google”.

@goatsarah @cstross probably mostly to run as a small server, not sure exactly what yet.

@cstross I would love to get one but I’m not sure the value is there for me. By the time I add a case and an SSD, I’m probably better off getting a tiny pc. We’ll see.

@johnefrancis thanks for pointing this out. I had no idea. #mastodon

@Gargron

@Gargron am I the only person that doesn’t love the USB-C connector? It easily get full of dirt and needs cleaning and the cable, when plugged, doesn’t always feel as stable as apples existing thunderbolt connectors.

Anyone using using the #linux subsystem on #windows 11? If so anyone using docker-compose on #WSL2? It would negate the need to install #VirtualBox. #docker #containers

@django hmm that contradicts what @manlycoffee said.

I've got 134 followers on #mastodon. So if I create a new post on mastodon.social, does the instance send 134 copies of my post out, or one to each instance that hosts my followers? #activitypub

@Gargron yes it sticks to the specs or yes it extends them? I’m confused. 😁

@Gargron does #mastodon stick to the #ActivityPub specs or does it extend them?

@Gargron I suppose meta could create their own gigantic (and modified) Mastodon instance and brand it as Facebook. They may even try to contribute to Mastodon’s source code and ultimately try to steer its development in whatever direction they want.

@Gargron someone should call that media site for an interview and pretend to be John M.

@Gargron he’s such a nice guy too. And he did such a great job founding Mastodon!
