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

https://git.exozy.me/Ta180m/Hello-world/pulls/3

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

The code hasn't been pushed to https://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: https://gitea.com/Ta180m/gitea/issues/7)

Just made my first official contribution to a new opensource browser 😁 https://github.com/AgregoreWeb/agregore-browser/releases/tag/v1.4.0

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. >>

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?

just throwing * and & in font of things until the squiggly red lines go away driven development

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

Boost this if you like soup or

if you wanna destroy capitalism

When a person discussing a system design (a food web, a social medium, a government, etc) is focused on preventing "freeloaders" or "parasites" instead of maximal benefit for minimal effort it's time to step back and reframe.

One of the unexpected joys of the fediverse over other places is the addition of weird domains appended on to everyone's usernames.

It makes the web feel like more than just four websites again.

It's both a signal of a smaller more intimate internet and also a larger and far more diverse internet at the same time!
