licho (@ me only --- "ghost" replies issue)
If Mastodon is dropping Ostatus support, maybe admins of other instances could change to Pleroma? Or !GNUSocial supports ActivityPub?
I like GNUSocial and don't wanna switch off. -

From jenheemstra https://twitter.com/jenheemstra on Twitter: Im often asked how I have time to do my job and exercise. Honestly, I couldnt do my job if I didnt exercise. Thats when I think through problems, generate new ideas, and burn off stress. If you dont think you have time to have a hobby, maybe you dont have time not to. -

I need to come up with a topic for my monthly blog post. ???? Although I technically posted twice in June so I guess it averages it out… -

@andyc Probably because you're a couple of years older than me. When I first started earning (well, that's a stretch - let's say making) money Peepshow was the last album and Superstition the next. But then you get into your twenties and begin thinking that there's more to life than vinyl and alcohol. This is technically true, but you neglect vinyl and alcohol at your soul's peril. -

There is a joy in pulling apart a clothes dryer, finding the reason for its inability to dry clothes, replacing the part, and reassembling it to find you made it work again, at a cost of $35. I lost my fear of tinkering as a teenager when I learned it's ok to take things apart. -

Some people made this, it's not a gateway per se, but it's useful. Working right now on #social. https://daemons.cf/cgit/hybridbot/about/ -

@rozzin Yeah, if we just change the baseline to certified, encrypted domains, we won't need any terminology as today about "secure connections", meaning we can shift that to mean "not evil" instead.
The certification method should of course be configurable from CAs to whatever, since today's PKI is far from secure anyway. -

Also remember: the #FreeSoftware community introduced the first #OpenMoko months before #Apple launched #iPhone — and #GreenPhone months before that. Even with major... debut foibles, they were amazing—not just technically, but also socially: https://www.mail-archive.com/gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org/msg26330.html -

Spent yesterday optimizing an uploader, and today half of the data in my datasets are now uploading at "infinite speed". So... proud? I guess? Hope I don't turn into a salamander.... -

Funny positioning in my Twitter feed: at first, I thought the second tweet was a reply to the first. I was like... "hard core". https://twitter.com/drsekula/status/1143617999544430595/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/58727 -

Wow. I knew jqwas a cli json parser, but I didn't know it could perform all sorts of operations on the data. Very cool! -

Why, yes... I am building a fort made from books in my SMU office. It's the only plausible explanation for the state of my office. -

I wonder if anybody my age actually feels that they are half as far away from retirement as they are from their first day of #work. I certainly don't. -

My #bank waives hole-in-the-wall cash withdrawal fees provided you make a certain amount of electronic transactions per month, and have your wages deposited into that account. I couldn't work out the logic behind this requirement until I looked at my statement and realised "Oh, feck. That's tremendously commercially useful data, isn't it?" You can have cash at face value, or you can have #privacy, but not both. -
