@aral Very cool! What app are you using for streaming?

@dalias Ohhhhhhhh. 🤦♂️

That is not good!

@dalias What did they do? I am not clear on where the link is.

@killyourfm Thanks for writing and sharing that. I am giving similar thought… but letting go is so hard. And inertia is an easy path.

@Gargron That is an awesome shirt! Any chance you might get a US vendor who could print and ship here? It’s $18.99 for DHL shipping to the US which is significant!

Today’s goal.. join with @bortzmeyer in posting about #IETF activity at #IETF125 to bring a bit more awareness here in the Fediverse to the amazing work so many volunteers are doing to make the #Internet work better through #OpenStandards !

(If you don’t follow Stéphane, he does a lot of great posting about Internet topics, open source, and much more. He’s a great person!)

Wow! Fascinating to see the drop in #Starlink traffic out of the #Ukraine once terminals that were not approved were disabled! Clearly others were using the Starlink network...

@killyourfm Ah, yes… DVDs… back when we used to actually *own* everything versus merely lease it via whatever streaming services we pay……..

@killyourfm Okay… now I am feeling very old when you said ER aired more than 30 years ago!! 🤯🤣 We used to watch it all the time when it came out - and it *was* such a powerful show!

Which of the zillion streaming services has it available? It would be fun to see it again.

Forty years ago, 21 people gathered for the first meeting of what became the Internet Engineering Task Force or #IETF . Every day billions of people use the open standards and technologies developed in the IETF. And nearly 8000 volunteer IETF participants from around the world collaborate in more than 100 working groups evolving those open standards and making the Internet work better!

@evan I answered “Always” because most people on the planet know of New York, and “Dan York” is short and simple. However, reading some of the other replies, I realized that I do sometimes get variations on “Dan”. I say it with the shorter “a” of “pan” or “can”, but some people will say it sounding more like “D-ah-n” or even “Don”. It’s still close enough to be fine by me. 😃

@evan Dang! I missed this. I was at the IETF 124 Welcome Reception at the hotel.

I’m looking forward to being in Montreal for #IETF124 in a couple of hours (a 2 hour drive from my house in Vermont). A fun personal fact… the very *first* #IETF meeting I attended in-person was IETF 66… *19 years ago* … in Montreal!

At that time in 2006 I was focused on voice-over-IP and various elements of the SIP protocol, and various elements of VoIP security. Many IETF meetings later, my focus is different, but still looking to help make the Internet work better!

Q for #WordPress users - is there a site / service where you could give it the URL for a site and see what WordPress theme might be closest to the current look of the site?

I have a number of sites to migrate to WordPress (from TypePad) and I'm looking for a quick way to find a basic theme that provides similar features to what I have in the different sites?

@ChrisWere Ha! Are modern websites even usable with lynx? Many seem to rely on so many components that I wouldn’t think would work well in lynx. (Admittedly, I haven’t fired up lynx in probably 20 years, other than a few random times to show someone how the web looked in the early 1990s pre-Mosaic)

@evan Wow! I am very surprised. Almost nothing I connect to is plain HTTP anymore.

Dear @mozilla ,

I get that you need to FOCUS, but I'm personally bummed you are killing off #Pocket, as it's a service I use pretty much ** every single day! ** 😞 (I don't care about Fakespot )

But please... literally *** NO ONE *** is asking for more "AI-powered features":

------
This shift allows us to shape the next era of the internet – with tools like vertical tabs, smart search and more AI-powered features on the way.
------

Please just STOP the AI nonsense!

So many social media channels these days……..

If you have a #PixelFed account, I'm over there as https://pixelfed.social/Danyork

Who should I follow on PixelFed?

I set the account up in 2022 but haven’t used it. With the new app making it easier to work with on my iPhone, I may start using it more.

No #TikTok / #TikTokBan decision from the US Supreme Court today. They announced 2 other decisions, but neither of them were related to TikTok: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/slipopinion/24

They do not have any other “Non-argument days” on their calendar this week, but they can always add one.

So.. WILL we see a decision this week? Or will they let the law just take effect on Sunday? (And in which case, what will TikTok choose to do?)
