@firescotch@mastodon.social They look cozy.

As unfashionable as it is to praise Coldplay, their new album Is the best thing they've done in years.

@nova@starflower.space it's a reference to goop

@SeventhMagpie I've already decided I have to find this person and deal with them. Who do they think they are?😆

Crowdfunding for PhD admin fees 

@ArtistMarciaX@playvicious.social Best of luck. I know it's a hard grind but it will be worth it.

@lain @clacke @ThisIsLeeloo@pleroma.soykaf.com it's mooootiful

@hackernews@die-partei.social This is great.

@lain I'd choke. I know someone that became super ernest on social media, full-on keyboard warrior. It has sucked the life out of him. He's literally impotent.

Reading sites for things like #IPFS and #Beaker / #DAT and #MaidSafe / #SAFENetwork, some things are never stated.

If someone were to set up a #RasPi to be a node on one of these types of #peer-to-peer networks, would they need to set up NAT passthrough, or do their protocols already include something like STUN / TURN?

Mostly an academic question, as I’m not willing to potentially open up access to my home network.

The FidoNet chapter from BBS: The Documentary (2004) is I think required viewing for fediverse admins.

Bulletin board services (BBSes) were pre-web online communities with forums, mail, games, etc. FidoNet was/is basically a volunteer-run federation layer that let BBSes communicate with each other.

The video talks about FidoNet's growing pains, especially around governance & a mismatch between what users wanted and what the sysops felt was required to maintain the net.

@andyc You've done well to have such a small list.

@dick_turpin I'm no fan of Assange but why did they waste so much time and resources?

I have a doppleganger on campus. A barista told me he'd done a portrait session with me a couple of years back.
"No you didn't."
"Oh, I'm sorry. You take milk in your coffee, right?"
"No, that's the other guy."

@nova@starflower.space It's infuriating.

There's another Half Life game coming? Crikey.
