Adding two categories:

1. Apps like @ivory that make money via subscriptions.
2. Indirect Services:
- CDNs that front Fediverse servers (like bunny.net)
- Storage (like BackBlaze and Wasabi that provide S3 storage)
- Monitoring and Obserability (like Catchpoint and DataDog).

@tchambers

Nice!

This afternoon's movie was Flight of the Navigator (1986). A fun, feel-good family movie — though, the NASA guy was a big creepy and dark. The plot was simple and the runtime short. One of the first movies to use CGI extensively and while it doesn't hold up well, it's a great snapshot into what CGI was like in the mid-80s. Alan Silvestri's synth score for the movie is interesting.

Rated 7 out of 10.

Playing with #snac. Pretty awesome: tar cvzf backup.tar.gz <installdir> to backup. Copy to a different machine tar xvzf backup.tar.gz. Neat.

Oops, I might have tried the Delete button on a post. Thank goodness it was from my own post from my other instance. :success:

It's nice that Blackmagic calls this out for their cloud.

Such a fun show, especially for a lifetime Back to the Future fan like myself. The miniature DeLorean was so awesome. Roger Bart is fantastic as Doc Brown. There were changes to the story, but they were acceptable because this is a Broadway show.

Super entertaining show.

Generosity illustrated. Also a good example of sacrifice.

Take it from Hans: Careful with the Christmas lights.

All seats filled. It’ll be interesting to see how things work out for both RB teams.

@jrconlin Have you tried #snac from @grunfink? Even more lightweight than GoToSocial (like remote images don't even get downloaded and cached on your system, saving disk space). Has post expiry (system-wide and user-configurable), has post editing and has an odd ball minimalistic web UI that I really liked.

Mariah Carey's Christmas songs will endure into the 23rd Century.

Greatest tree topper ever from the best Christmas movie ever.

Probably best to avoid #Hetzner.
