Let's put people back in control of their technology. The Open Social Web is a good start. Also wondering aloud where we are taking this […]

@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyThe threat landscape appears to have fundamentally changed.
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyDownload software from Broadcom qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment. For example, after countless disjointed screens, the actual download icon is so far to the right on screen that unless you make your browser window very unusually wide, you will never see it.
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyStatus: can’t stop giggling.

@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyIn this proud tradition, it should be: Trump the …?
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyI always thought Pippin the Short (king of the Franks in the 700s) was the best name of a nobleman. But today I come across Frederick the Bitten and Albrecht the Degenerate (both counts around ~1300) Wikipedia is great!

Sometimes there seems to be a belief in some places that #ActivityPub standardization stopped years ago. True, it was in a lull for some time.
But in recent years, it has become quite active again.
Check out this table.
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gy"Cancer Capital", ha! Great phrase by @anildash.
When people in the Fediverse complain about VCs and Venture Capital, I think they mostly complain about that Cancer Capital, not so much traditional VC. We didn't have that term before, and it's a very useful distinction. Now we need one for […]
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyThis is deeply disturbing, on so many levels.
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gySo Meta's Threads apparently has a feature called "Black Threads" now. I'll eat my hat if that wasn't "inspired" by @rude1.blacksky.team Blacksky in some fashion.

@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gy@liaizon are you planning to come to tomorrow’s website TF meeting?
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyThe first real exception to the seemingly unstoppable march of age verification laws. At least that I have seen […]
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gy@laurenshof These things cannot really be definitely scoped up front. Which is why we have a Task Force so we can come to agreements on what should and should not be there. @liaizon @evan @silverpill
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gy@liaizon @evan @silverpill yes. Issue was filed. https://github.com/swicg/activitypub.rocks/issues/63 waited for some time, no objections. Done.
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gy@liaizon they way to do this is the same way it got removed: whoever cares about it needs to file an issue, make their case in the issue (it does not have to be elaborate) and we see what comments they get. If there are no objections, and it is a small change (which it would be) it gets done. If […]
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gySome websites are so badly broken that even if you paid me, I would have no idea how to create a mess like that.
@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gy@evan We might want to update the pinned post and turn it into a "how to get started" or such. We can discuss next week. https://www.w3.org/community/socialcg/2024/05/03/welcome-to-the-social-web-incubator-cg/

@j12t.j12t.social.ap.brid.gyOnce there was a Leningrad. And an Aelia Capitolina. And a Karl-Marx-Stadt. And apparently the Gulf of America has been joined by Lake America. Temporarily, I would think, just like these others. Of course, the name changer in chief would not know enough history to understand that this movie […]
