Anyone have recommendations for cool ?

I'm mostly into exploration and open world type RPGs. Particularly the fallout/cyberpunk/outer worlds flavor .

@robryk I think Client-server might be a good start. I'm thinking a web extension yhat lets you register apps to redirect to would be a good start. Maybe you'd also need auth tokens or cookies sent to the app as part of that?

I think the main limiting factor would be the lack of search in RDF, so if endpoints provided Triple Pattern Fragments endpoints it'd get us the most bang for our buck.

@bojan Yeah! I'm really excited by the prospect of having this stuff integrated in to @agregore somehow.

I think an API along the lines of Navigator.reigsetProtocolHandler but for content types and or RDF schema types would be very doable here.

@kidehen @openlink @datasniff What sort of functionality does it bring that one doesn't get from the default fediverse page?

Is it just showing the structure of the semantic data so you can navigate it in the extension instead of the app?

@mauve This would be a big accessibility and customizability win.

Also having some selection of domain-specific clients (aside from a generic browser) makes it easy to create content while leaving styling and navigation to the user. I would love to one day switch browser tabs without getting blinded by a light theme.

Though I never made the connection between this idea and semantic web. Semantic web for me triggers ideas of "knowledge graphs everywhere! Zettelkasten kugelschreiber!!"

Excited to hear from @mauve on their holistic approach to local-first software at the next @dweb meet-up this Tuesday 5pm PT

@quinn@octodon.social Yeah, the aesthetics and academic/corpo culture around RDF makes it pretty hard to be excited. :P

I think it can be made palatable with a few rad people making something obviously useful with it.

I think I've finally seen the light of the .

I think web browsers should give users a way to register apps to handle displaying certain schema types.

E.g. if I open an ActivityStream URL, the browser should load my preferred client in the same way that clicking a PDF in my filesystem will open up my PDF viewer.

Users would then be able to bring their own interfaces to data instead of relying on some closed source proprietary app interface.

Also opens the door to mixing data

@bhaugen Yeah, tabs are a pretty handy way of having a bunch of things in a sort of "cache" to bring up on demand.

It's a shame that more OSs don't take advantage of tabs as a fundamental feature users are encouraged to use.

@rose_alibi Do you find you miss out on the show more when you do so? I find I can only process language to a certain fidelity if I'm not focused on it.

Generally I can let my body do functions while my mind processes language, but two language streams (regardless of sensory input) at once end up leaving one of them less coherent. 😅

I think audio tends to be easier since sometimes I can multiplex conversations, but I can't multiplex reading / coding.

@rose_alibi Ooo, audible is a good axis to measure too! I usually have at least one, but I've managed to multiplex like three streams of info at once before. :P

I think I had to sacrifice a part of my soul for that one so it's not a longer term thing, but it's possible! :P

How many windows do you typically have visible on your screen at any given time?

I just realized recently that a lot of folks only have one at a time which blew my mind since I usually have a dozen or so at a time. :P

Twitter and Facebook are headed straight for the ground and accelerating. Google and Microsoft are burning cash chasing AI shadows that are doomed to fail.

What an exciting time to be on the internet.

Fun science fact: nobody actually knows how many people assigned female at birth have a Y chromosome because only people who have medically obvious issues such as not menstruating are ever tested! The same is also true for all sorts of variations, such as knowing how many people have two uteruses.

Gonna start calling "the web" the "cloud web" as the opposite of

Maybe I should call it the (derogatory).

Kinda like how people with Autism can use wording like "Allistic" to talk about people without Autism. Or how Asexual people can talk about "Allosexual" people who are not ace.

I'm glad that with ChatGPT and Bing you no longer need to invent a guy to be mad at.

He's right there and he's begging you to battle in the Free Market Of Ideas.

Honestly, you can just tell it to have an opinion you hate and have a field day.

Probably a fun tool to use on humans you want to harass.
