i really want there to be a web forum for us to use to all make websites and share resources and share what we made but i don't know how to run a forum and i don't know if i can handle moderating it

I know I already mentioned discourse.32bit.cafe the other day, did you have a chance to check it out? Or perhaps this is not what you're looking for?

Took some (IMO) really cool photos the other day. Wanted to share, although it's to big of a post for Bsky so I'll link to my Nostr post: njump.me/nevent1qqsq2... My favorite was probably the bald eagle flying over the city. #photography


Big Tech is digital colonialism, siphoning creativity and exploiting consumers for profit while deepening inequality. These corporations treat individuals as mere resources in their relentless pursuit of profit.

When will you rise up against their exploitation? Just look at the damage they cause!

Like bargaining with Goliath

Analysis: Decades of phony "peace process"

For decades, the US presided over a phoney peace process that demanded "negotiations" betw inherently unequal parties - an occupied people & the occupier.

During these so-called "negotiations", Israel’s goal was always to reject a truly sovereign Palestinian state, while the US continuously blamed the Palestinians for so-called "intransigence."

#Watching the music video for Cannonball by The Breeders;

youtube.com/watch?v=fxvkI9MTQw…

Yes, I know, I'm obsessed with this song, and I've already talked it up here. But watching the video adds a whole extra level to the experience of listening to it. So much stuff going on in there!

Cannonball was an underground favourite in 1990s Aotearoa, but never a radio hit, so watching the video on music TV was our way in.

thanks for reminding me about the video. Kim Deal really is amazing. I went to see Pixies a few years ago in Auckland and they were still great, but I missed her

> I went to see Pixies a few years ago in Auckland and they were still great, but I missed her

We might have been at the same concert. I didn't realise Kim wasn't on stage. It was in a big indoor stadium and unfortunately I was stuck up in the bleachers : (

I really hate the way concerts and even some outdoor festivals have become just as class-divided as airline flights. It defeats the whole purpose of the thing.

Do you use trailing commas in #Python?

I do!

They make adding items and swapping items easier, avoid accidental implicit string concatenation, and they make diffs shorter.

If #MarvelRivals is crashing for you on #Linux after the latest update, add this to your game command line and it should start up fine:

LD_PRELOAD="" SteamDeck=1 %command%

I hope they fix it so that it doesn't require the SteamDeck variable set though, not all Linux is Steam Deck.

in reply to Adam Honse

Enabling the option does seem to disable the launcher so my hope is that they're aiming for Steam Deck verified and realized the launcher was causing problems and not the alternative that they only want it to run on the Steam Deck


I used a micro:bit to build a speed monitor for H0-scale model trains. It's programmed in #micropython.

Today I wrote the calibration code, which gives instant feedback when aiming the lasers at the light sensors.

Mastodon can be run locally on an intranet without touching the web and function just fine

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think this is the case with a Bluesky PDS

From personally experience it has to use a lot of services provided by Bluesky, many of them listed here: status.bsky.app

So if you ask me if Bluesky is truly self-hosted? No, I don't think so

If the company behind Bsky dissapears and the server stop working I believe it's the end

Mastodon however can be forked and continued

in reply to stux⚡

according to a blog post by someone who has worked with federated tech bluesky stores all the security certificates used to identify users in one central place on their servers and as of yet cannot figure out how to make those distributed. They are aware of this issue and may be trying to resolve it. Or vc investors may decide they like that barrier to entry.

This makes actual cloning only theoretical.

Also you have to clone the entire data structure. Large, growing. Expensive servers.

in reply to stux⚡

As far as I understand it, that's correct. A BlueSky PDS is just your data repository. To actually view any timelines, at minimum you would also need to run an AppView to ingest the event stream from the PDS, contextualize it, and display those events to the user. I'm not sure if this is a currently supported configuration either... I'm far from a guru on this tho so corrections are appreciated if I'm wrong.
