Godot Engine 4.0 out now plus console porting is coming https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2023/03/godot-engine-40-out-now-plus-console-porting-is-coming/ #FOSS #GameDev #GameEngine #OpenSource
It'd be neat if there was a front end for #PeerTube that looked like Tiktok but with the algorithm being on the client side with more control over how it finds content.
Wondering where to buy DRM-free ebooks, digital comics, magazines & RPGs?
Here's my list of over 300 ebookshops that sell books you can actually own, keep, and read on your favourite devices!
@Are0h Honestly what gets me about capitalism is that as a society we seem to have decided that democracy is good, but only sometimes.
Democracy in voting for your local mayor? Good. Democracy in voting for your boss? Bad.
And no-one ever questions it.
@mauve Maybe https://cryptpad.fr/ ?
Are there any #foss alternatives to Google's spreadsheets that folks liked using? Specifically interested in self hosting, live collaboration, amd access control.
Hobestly wish HackMD had something for spreadsheets built in so I could write text instead of fiddling with a mouse :P
If you're excited to try stuff right away before we actually have docs out, we've got our latest code in the `v1-staging` branch which contains some Ansible scripts to deploy to your own VM.
If you've got 5 bucks a month to spare, you can get it running on a digital ocean droplet and start hosting your sites.

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.
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...
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.
