After I sorted the apps on my phone by color, I am now creating playlists based on song length. So a playlist called 1-3 (min), 3-6 (min), 6-10, 10-18 and 18+ :)

Platforms die, open standards survive and evolve. I smell a revival of The Web the way it should be. Decentralised. Open. Fun. The Internet Of People. Without trackers, respecting privacy and data ownership.

And it seems to become reality. Left Nouveau Front Populaire WINS second round. Far-right fell down to #3. Wow. MERCI!

Engineers at Apple: "Sorry, y'all, but this "AI" stuff just isn't ready for primetime. Can we do a slow rollout, if at all?"
Product Management at Apple: "That would look really bad. But maybe we can blame someone else?"
Marketing at Apple: "Hold my beer!"

Söder: NEIN zu Atomkraftwerken und Verbrennungsmotoren (wenn politisch opportun)
Ein paar Jahre später:
JA zu Atomkraftwerken und Verbrennungsmotoren (wenn politisch opportun)
Merz schafft das mit Wärmepumpen in weniger als 6 Monaten.
Quintessenz: Konservative haben keine Meinung mehr und erst recht keine Strategie ausser "BILD stimmt zu"

#WhereIsMySurprisedFace
Facebook/Meta starts talking about the "Extend" phase of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish as predicted:
"“You could imagine an extension to the protocol eventually — of saying like, ‘I want to support micropayments,’ or … like, ‘hey, feel free to show me ads, if that supports you.’ Kind of like a way for you to self-label or self-opt-in. That would be great,”

Fehlt nicht mehr viel, bis die neue Sturmabteilung der noAfd in Sachsen und anderswo wieder mit Uniform auf die Strasse geht.

I need a new place for my domains/DNS. #Gandi is becoming too expensive. Where would you move your domains when you want to be sure it is in the EU and allows for full control of even weird DNS records, ideally by just uploading a BIND zone file? No discussions, please. Just suggestions. I think that 10-15€ per domain/year should be the max.

Which podcasts do you regularly listen to? I'll go first:
Whenever a new episode comes out:
- The Daily - New York Times (news)
- Post Reports - Washington Post (news)
- 99% Invisible (genius stuff)
- Betrouwbare Bronnen (dutch, news/history)
- Sicherheitshalber (german, security/military)
When I feel like it and have some time to fill:
- Radiolab (fun, supercool)
- This American Life (interesting stories)
- Hidden Brain (science)
- 404 Media Podcast (tech)
- Tech Won't Save Us

Hrmbl. #Postfix gurus. How can I add a setting to either main.cf or master.cf that makes sure that SMTP traffic to a specific domain (in this case mailbox.org) ONLY gets sent via IPv4 while all other connections can be IPv4 or IPv6?
(Background: mailbox.org uses the weird CSS blacklist from SpamHaus which has my provider listed because my provider doesn't give a full /64 to me and SpamHaus deems that to be unacceptable)

I see more and more often that people post bit.ly links here. Please don't. First and foremost — it hides the real URL, so I don't know where I am sent to. Second: you force me to use a service that collects, aggregates and shares data on who clicks what when, which I consider very bad practice. Finally, no matter how long your URL is, it only counts as 23 characters in your post, so no need to "shorten" links [1]
TL;DR post real links and don't spy on me. #kthxbai

@npub1psd…9sr7 Yep. This pattern however has been used quite a few times in the past 2-3 years. It's a federated network, just like e-mail. One way to fight this can be by simply reusing the working anti-spam tactics used in that field here. But that's just fighting symptoms, not causes.

@npub1psd…9sr7 I am on the receiving end of these spam messages (they always consist of a toot with 5 accounts listed and one of two images attached) as my account is on their list. It's annoying, but the impact on my (single-user) instance is acceptable. I report every post to the originating instance. So far they come from a small group of instances and typically only one with my account per instance.

The spam wave is still going on. On my single-user instance it’s merely an annoyance (9 spam toots arrived while I was sleeping) but I can only guess how brutal the impact on bigger sites must be.

Listening to a podcast (from the US) when the sentence drops „this was before it was legal to bring guns to church“ and now I want to puke. #goodnight

ARD und ZDF sind sich einig: die #noAfD ist der Wahlgewinner und zweitgrößte Partei in #Bayern. Dunkelbraunes Deutschland. Schlimm.

@npub1psd…9sr7 Maybe it is time to start a publishing company that uses git and markdown and/or asciidoc for change tracking and publishing? With pandoc as backend so a simple CI/CD can create output as PDF, HTML, EPUB etc? Sounds like a plan! (This is more or less how we create and maintain our documentation at Red Hat ;)

I've been on the #fediverse since many years. I will not tell new citizens how to behave and what to learn. I am eager to find out what y'all are looking for and use my knowledge and experience to make that happen.

Guess who gets headlines, live reporting and loads of tax payed navy vessels to save the passengers?

Soon “#Mastodon failed because it didn’t replace #Twitter” will be replaced with “#Lemmy #kbin failed because it didn’t replace #reddit”.
But that’s not the point. The point is that millions of people across the planet are exploring #ActivityPub based communication now. THAT is the big opportunity and success.

Technically you would link your instance to content in your #Solid pod to create a post/toot. And when you migrate between instances, you "simply" replace the links. The instance could cache the content to speed up delivery and federation. But you would be in control and can also see how your content spreads without having to rely on third parties. Think about it :) More decentralisation. Better business opportunities.

What we really need in the #SocialWeb, as the next iterative progression of #ActivityPub and its implementations like #Mastodon etc. IMHO. https://solidproject.org to store all posts and pictures etc *per user*, not per instance or account. This would radically reduce the scope of an implementation and allow for frictionless migration between instances. This does NOT necessarily need any change to the standard. It's an implementation detail, AFAICS. #SocialCG
