OK, #CDU, warum legst du mir ein 💩-blaues Messer in den Briefkasten?

Ist das eine Drohung gegen mich als Migranten?

Ist es, damit ich mich besser gegen "alimentierte Messermänner" verteidigen kann?

Oder ist es, damit es mehr Messermänner gibt, gegen die man "Politik machen" kann?

Ist die Aufschrift #einfachmachen eine Aufforderung zur Straftat? Wenn ja, gegen wen?

Und warum ist das Messer blau?

Was willst du mit dem Dolche, sprich!

Torn between the parallel universe where Jabber®️™️ isn't owned by Cisco¹ and the one where #xmpp is pronounced as "Zimpy!"²

@cstross @leyrer Ringtones in filenames? I was so preoccupied with whether or not I could, I didn't stop to think if I should.

🔊 Sound on!

P.S: The delay added by ansi music would also allow animated gifs. With sound!

As somebody who saw a new product release last year, based on buildroot-2016.xx, I can assure you that the rot often starts before the things hit the shelf

Thanks for the thread and the linked Mastodon hosting architecture. I'd love to see a write-up of the possible and reasonable architectural decisions that went into this, and how they can help reduce the Mastodon hosting bill.

As somebody running a 3k users #xmpp server on a ~15€/mo VM I'm also shocked by the huge numbers going around.

@apps I wanted to log into a @vernissage instance with Fedilab, but get an error when tapping "Continue"... Is this an easy fix or should I pull a number? Or is this a server side issue?

Das ist unfair! 1995 gab es nur Email, und IRC! Und NNTP, aber das verstarb am Spam. Die IM-Startups von 1996 sind inzwischen durch mehrere Besitzer in die Insolvenz gegangen. Die Startups von heute können erst recht keine 30 Jahre alt sein, und werden in 30 Jahren lang vergessen sein. #xmpp gibt's erst seit 1999, und es bleibt genau so (un)tot wie IRC. #matrix zerlegt sich grade selbst, und #activitypub könnte sich durchsetzen, wird nach der Apokalypse aber zu teuer zu betreiben

www.iomm.net is a CNAME redirect to domains.smugmug.com. For obscure historical reasons, you are not allowed to set a CNAME redirect on the domain itself, so this trick doesn't work for iomm.net. Instead, you need to either configure a web redirect to www.iomm.net, or copy the three IP address ("A") records from domains.smugmug.com to iomm.net (and periodically check if the provider changed the servers!)

Not sure if sarcasm or actual Javascript usability improvement... or both?!

@brett
This is excellent! I'd love to deploy it on some honeypot infrastructure, do you have plans to publish the source?

I took this photo on this day one year ago, in a dry riverbed in the #Valencia region of Spain. Yesterday, the region has been hit by devastating floods that leave me speechless. The #ClimateCrisis is now.

Last time I've heard "madwifi" was almost twenty years ago, didn't the driver lose relevance with the in kernel 802.11 stack in the late 2000s?

@ryanc
I hope so, even if keeping a server side list of all issued JWTs is _interesting_.

@ryanc
Excellent work! You write:

> not only was I no longer able to mint my own API tokens, the legitimate ones I’d initially generated still worked.

Does that mean they kept the old 512-bit-signed tokens valid? How would they accomplish that?

@accudio
I'm sharing your frustration, I really miss Twidere but still use @apps for its per account timelines and easy cross sharing/bookmarking. I've seen three causes for the timeline jumps: a) it loads a batch of posts in the background and jumps by 40 posts, roughly; b) it is OOM killed in the background and doesn't store position, starting where you were before; c) it confuses the post you were reading with your or somebody else's boost of it, much later in the timeline
@noodlejetski

@apps
But that's not a solution then because it will hide all content from people I don't follow. I only want to hide duplicates... ?

@apps will that hide all boosts, even for posts that originally weren't on my timeline?

How can I radically deduplicate my timeline, using @apps? #FediHelp

I enabled "group boosts" (in app and on server), but it's not enough.

I don't want to see...
?...boosts of posts/boosts that were in my timeline
?...my own boosts of posts/boosts from my timeline
?...re-boosts by the original author to get more engagement
?...posts that I've seen with any other account in the app

I'm reading my timeline and I only ever want to see a post once. Repeating after a few weeks is tolerable.
