Just discovered I can directly edit PDS records from @aetheros.computer Great interface; been running it directly as a PWA.

Got my first jobs as a @cocore.dev provider! Loving community compute!

Curious who's on Germ? The answer is in the app. It's always the right time to end-to-end encrypt your DMs. 💬🔐

my new favorite pastime is discovering new atproto apps! So much creativity out there, it's at-mazing. lol.

@pckt.blog custom domain setup was quick and easy! My ramblings now accessible via my subdomain: blog.mikehacks.io

Germ theme represent! @germnetwork.com apexdevelopment.github.io/bluesky-lice...

I think above all my favorite part of Bluesky’s integration of @standard.site is that the thing itself was made by no one *at* Bluesky - some people got together and made something bigger than themselves, on the network, without anyone’s permission! Now Bluesky is responding to it!

Gaming on Linux is finally real! @bazzite.gg

Your private network is waiting for you in Germ. Privately DM your mutuals, in beta now.

Very cool sounding experiment that’s running on the Atmosphere: “co/core is a place where people share the compute they already own to run AI for each other, instead of renting from a handful of giant providers. The models are open ones that run on the hardware people already have.”

Just in time before WWDC: My Apple Frames CLI can now frame videos! Give it screen recordings taken on a Mac, iPhone, or iPad, and let it do its magic. Supports colors, merging, playback offset, and more. Perfect for filing fancy radars this summer: www.macstories.net/stories/appl...

Today's project - an Apple Wallet pass with my hobby deets.

Migrated my PDS server from the DigitalOcean marketplace install to a clean ansible baselined Debian 13 vps and leveraged Docker to consolidate PDS, atplan.io, and mikehacks.io into a single vps along with automated backups locally, regionally, and nationally. whew.

Our obsession? The lowly DM. Community without 1:1 relationships is just people yelling at each other. Private DMs are where we actually talk. 🦠🌿🌳

Germ DM is built on Messaging Layer Security, the new end-to-end encryption standard used for private messages between Android and iOS, and for A/V calls on Discord. In fact, we're the first consumer messenger built on this alternative to the Signal protocol. www.germnetwork.com/blog/decentr...

atplan now works across all PDSes #atplan

Really enjoying the @pckt.blog platform! Here's something I wrote about travel, packing, and anxiety. pckt.blog/b/mike-hacks...

While Python/CLI updates are great from the desktop, in today's busy world a mobile updater is critical. #atplan

Just shipped atplan — a reimagining of the Unix .plan file tradition for ATProto. Back in the VAX days, finger user@host told you what someone was working on. atplan brings that back — user-owned records on your own PDS. 🌐 atplan.io 📦 io.atplan.plan 🔧 github.com/mikro6/atplan

Average Aether OS user during onboarding. #atproto #atdev

I've seen a lot of chatter today about Instagram ending support for optional End-to-End Encrypted DMs. I helped to lead on cryptography and privacy for E2EE in Messenger and Instagram for many years, until I left around 10 months ago, so it's disappointing to see it being removed from Instagram.

The most important benchmark...

Who wants to chat? #germinbio

If you want to make your own whistle kits or do 3d printing of whistles etc @dansinker.com has got you covered dansinker.com/posts/2025-1... and there are also a ton of "how to help" links from @lefttheprairie.bsky.social linktr.ee/apwhistles

Lazy Saturday Morning...

Bought at the Micro Center in Mayfield Heights, OH in the late 90s. One of my first forays into Linux.

It's not free; your data pays for it....

I'm trying out pihole and have both my MacBook and Windows PC using it. Can you guess when I powered up my Windows PC? #pihole

Apple OS Upgrade day!

Some of my son’s art. Go check him on the gram! www.instagram.com/p/DOmAO7mka9...

Oh the memories…and so many viruses…

Too many people don't know that platforms can read their private messages. That's why we did the hard, slow thing: built our company around end-to-end encryption. So no one can read what you write except you and who you send it to. 🔒🤫

A piece of advice for all ATmospheric travellers:

3D printed a case for my Flipper! #3dprint #flipperzero #bambulab #bambulabp1s

MS BASIC 6502 was one of the platforms I learned BASIC before moving on to Pascal and others. Good to see this open sourced! Brings back some memories.. opensource.microsoft.com/blog/2025/09...

We're the messenger that doesn't track or trap you. It's just that simple. 💅

#germinbio here we go! So excited for this integration @germnetwork.com #atproto end to end encryption for dm - it’s that important!

Enjoy the long weekend, friends. And thank a local union organizer 💪

atproto is like if you could post tweets to your own website and then twitter would be able to draw in all the tweets from across the web into a normal-looking social app

Printed this sweet enclosure for a Raspberry Pi Zero 2w with a waveshare ethernet/usb HAT. Fits perfectly! #raspberrypi #bambulabs

End-to-end encrypted means we can't read anything that happens in our app. Your cards, messages, friends--they're yours, not ours. And that's a promise we can't help but keep. 🤐

So excited as I finally got the config right to convert my Kaypro II floppies to disk images using Greaseweazle and HxCFloppy!!! Time now for mass conversion and an emulator running on Raspberry Pi!!

Such an amazing film!!!
