@m455 I think there's stuff thay can be done about decentralizing the bootstrapping somewhat. 🤔 E.g saving "stable" ips that get discovered for later bootstrapping, getting dht peers from other devices on your local network, easy to scan qr codes to connect two devices together for dht stuff. Good food for thought, ty

@m455 Fair point about bootstrap nodesc Even though you can technically use any DHT peer too build up your routing table. Most apps have a few hardcoded which can be targets of censorship.

Past that the key/value storage is spread out among all peers participating and values are stored on several peers for redundancy which is as decentralized as you cam get IMO. 😅

@m455 Would you mind elaborating on how DHTs are centralized?

MapKnitter.org will be going offline at the end of the month due to lack of funds, which is very sad!
1000s of maps of environmental injustices people have made over the years

And also SpectralWorkbench.org too.
database of 200k+ community-contributed open source spectra.

Both will be archived on archive.org

If you want to check and help
publiclab.org/mapknitter

It's really fucking hard and violent blow for environmental activism and community based open environmental investigation

Kira, in convalescence ☀️

I really like this way of looking at consensus & the idea of group limits:

"This thinking however, is still built around voting, which is a form of competitive decision-making that is not designed to respect people’s autonomy. Consensus, instead of being a way to convince everyone to agree to the same plan, is a way of exploring what the logical limits of any given group are. If all members of a group cannot agree on a specific action, then it clearly needs to take place outside of that group, if at all."

How do I know if my mastodon instance is actually federating with stuff? 😅 I keep seeing empty profiles and I think my instance went down for like a month or two due to disk utilization issues.

Honestly, thinking of making a Matrix client that uses shitty plain javascript web components and supports multi-windows + uses shared workers to share a single client instance between pages.

First-ever Gitea pull request from a remote instance!!! 🎉🥳

git.exozy.me/Ta180m/Hello-worl

I've been waiting for this moment for months now!

The code hasn't been pushed to gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea yet since it's incredibly messy, but I'll clean it up tomorrow and also submit a draft pull request to upstream Gitea.

(Technical implementation information: gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea/issues/)

d'oh

maybe we shouldn't have put all our decentralised Web behind a couple of giant centralised CDN services

<< A Cloudflare outage, which began about 15 minutes ago, has hit several popular services including Discord, Omegle, DoorDash, Crunchyroll, Feedly, Zerodha, Medium.com, news outlet Register, Upstox and Social Blade. The internet infrastructure firm said it is investigating the “wide-spread” issue, but it’s unclear what all regions are impacted. >>

Gnome 42 is so unstable I'm considering migrating to some KDE based OS

Last minute #AppleEvent predictions? Sure why not:

* Mac Ultra mini: No screen, no ports, no I/O besides WiFi. Give it a 'net connection and hope it computes something for good
* Apple Reality glasses. Not Virtual, not Augmented, just Reality™. It just shows you the impending destruction of climate change and overlays corporate sponsor logos on politicians' suits
* Apple Pencils for #Twitter: They come in a two pack now. Instead of opening Twitter you can just shove both into your eyes

Uh I just got DMed by the COO of Tumblr asking about hiring contractors to make us fully #indieweb compliant, and possibly even #fediverse integration. Anyone out there looking for work?

There were several ways that second vision failed; it's not totally wrong in itself, I think, but it missed how a) unhappy and cruel people can gravitate together by free choice, making each other more cruel (ie 4chan), b) freedom of association can be weaponised by infrastructure capitalists as a means of surveillance, control and lock-in (Amazon, Facebook), and c) freedom of choice is never absolute, and people can put up with a lot of cruelty in order to find a tiny quantum of kindness
