I'll be making a demo video of how this works next week to share around.
Our next steps are going to be integrating #webmentions so that blogs published to the #dweb can have a way to have comments left of them while sticking to static site generation!
Maybe soon we'll also have #activitypub and #RSS support via microservices that build on top of Distributed Press.
Just loaded my first #p2p site published to the new version of https://distributed.press with proper #ipfs #hypercore and #dnslink support!
The DNSLink stuff is a bit iffy for hypercore, but I'll be fixing that up tomorrow.
Now stuff can be published via Distributed Press, and viewed via @agregore
What's cool is that in addition to keeping your content online, you can easily configure it to set up DNS keys for you by delegating with an NS DNS entry for the `_dnslink` subdomain on your domain.
Honestly very excited for this first round of #p2p #web apps and tutorials to be released for this @agregore grant. :O
One of them is going to be a small series on bootstrapping your own dev environment from scratch.
At least one of the tutorials is aiming at absolute beginners and using stuff like jsfiddle instead of full fledged IDEs for tinkering with the code.
@szbalint I always thought folks complained about paywalls because they don't have spare income for stuff and felt baited by links that don't warn them ahead of time.
Defs agree good work should get paid for.
I wish capitalism wasn't so soul crushing.
Capitalism has convinced you RSS is antiquated. The real reason it's fading is because it doesn't have ads and tracking. You going to tell me the news article is truly better on a browser with ads than on a little program you can open any time, on or offline?
Between its web services, its growing presence inside and outside of homes with always-on microphones and cameras and systems of monitoring employees in vehicles and in distribution centers alike, Amazon is not a commerce company. Amazon is a surveillance company. We need to understand exactly what beast is we are feeding. https://mas.to/@obeto/109937158795614534
“The reason most public transportation is seen as ‘losing’ money is precisely because it charges for trips. If you don't charge fares, suddenly it can't ‘lose’ money. It just costs money, the same as the roads.”
This random comment has given me my new favourite argument for removing fares from public transit.
We're getting quite a few people who thought the project was dead for some reason... Remember that you should follow our blog (and this account) for updates.
We released the first open-source accelerated GPU drivers for Apple Silicon just two months ago:
https://asahilinux.org/2022/12/gpu-drivers-now-in-asahi-linux/
That's the world's first open source driver for Apple GPUs, and also the world's first Linux GPU driver written in Rust, but for some reason it didn't get almost any media attention...
But then we sent out some device trees for Linux 6.2 and that did?
We don't get it...
@ben I dunno, I don't much like how the Internet I helped build turned out, so I'm open to investigating the hypothesis that the problem was at least partly in the financial assumptions.
Turns out that Fediverse stuff is pretty cheap to run. So why not run it on the cheap with co-ops and suchlike, without key players being in a position where success is 1000X ROI and anything else is failure?
The strong isolation of QubesOS is supposedly designed to stop even your worst enemy from sabotaging your system's integrity. Today I just found out who's my worst enemy - myself...
Also, ChatGPT can generate valid Windows 95 keys, and some suspiciously good-looking Windows XP keys. Is it piracy if a text model created them and told you it's okay to use those? 🤔
David Graeber got an economist to admit that he was not aware of single case where a company was fined more than the profit it turned breaking the law. He summarized this as the government saying: "Do all the crime you want, but if we catch you, you have to give us a cut."
Sometimes I have low-energy days and get the urge to pivot my career into another direction.
A bit less on my plate could be good for me, but my ambition is hard to keep in check.
I wish I could get to a point where I'd have a stable enough income on 20h/week so I can spend more time on my own projects.
@cwebber@octodon.social Oh! Was this a subtoot of this new flatpak app store thing? https://github.com/PlaintextGroup/oss-virtual-incubator/blob/main/proposals/flathub-linux-app-store.md
@WildEnte Interesting. I already have a custom mail server along with like 4 work-related external accounts.
Do you know if their email client works as a web app outside of Vivaldi? I was hoping to have a similar use case to GMail, but for all my email accounts and self hosted.
@cblgh Interesting, ty! Is this a sort of Electron app?
I was hoping for something I could run on a server so that I didn't need to worry about native apps as much. 🤔
@kubikpixel If I'm understanding correctly, this is a mail server? I was hoping for a web frontend that would talk to my existing email servers. Do you know if they have some more concrete docs of what it's supposed to do? Not very obvious from their docs page.
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Exploring what a local-first cyberspace might look like in my spare time.
