Thankfully @anisota.net wasn't susceptible to this attack, but it did reveal I needed to be doing more to get ahead of other potential platform manipulation — just rolled out several improvements. Ty to @thisismissem.social, @scoiattolo.mountainherder.xyz, & @baileytownsend.dev for their work here!

Docs are the closest thing open source has to a product manager. They decide who can succeed without a private Slack channel. Good docs are inclusive infrastructure.

If you want to change Bluesky’s default moderation settings, go to your moderation settings on the web - bsky.app/moderation. Apple limits adult-content controls inside iOS apps, so you won’t see those options on the iPhone app itself. 1/2

Goodness I was naive to think I could just write up a post with embeds and everything would render properly.

That’s a lot of trust to place on the pds to keep your data safe and protected from attacks. E2EE dms is quite honestly a necessity in this age of information warfare.

It’s nearly 3am, I don’t have much to say about 2025 as it was a hellscape for everyone. No matter what, keep being you, don’t forget that you are loved, and thrive. We won’t let whatever comes next stop us

Hey so fun fact I’m building a webcomic hosting platform that doesn’t suck. You literally just upload your pages and boom, you have a website. The waitlist is open if you’re curious!! webcomic.studio #comics #webcomics

Git's HTTP server side design does not scale https://xeiaso.net/notes/2025/distributed-git-ddos/

Kid asked if she could play a horror game. Hesitant, I asked her to show me a video thinking it was something like silent hill or five nights at Freddie’s. It is Doki Doki Literature’s Club.

Got affinity photo running on Linux, bg3 is running after needing to compile an ancient libssl build. Things have progressed since I last ran Linux as my desktop 15 years ago.

Dare I consider using the same did across account repos.

Just after a day of this I'm highly skeptical about the on/off protocol discourse. Any measure of privacy requires breaking the whole way blobs are created/fetched. If you want to store them in a manner that is private it's immediately considered off protocol unless you're doing hydration gymnastics

Might for the sake of time pressure just go with abusing embeds and use layered validations for reasons.

Digging into lexicons, seems that in theory I can extend the app.bsky lexicon with my own very uniquely named records which is ideal if I'm looking to tweak how records are created while allowing them to be seen by all clients 🤔

Alright so the bread loaves I thought were a disaster are actually the best tasting I’ve ever baked. The rise was just a bit garbage.

Converted my desktop turned server back to a desktop by simply installing a dm on top of fedora server. Lxqt was flakey so I installed kde which was nice, removed lxqt which cause plasma to break and I couldn’t resolve the library issues. Installed cinnamon and it works but sddm randomly chokes.

2 days ago the US admin imposed travel bans on 5 European individuals. Amongst them @thierrybreton.bsky.social, one of the main architects of the #DSA, and both the founder and the CEO of @hateaid.org#DSA- a non-profit that champions human rights in digital spaces & also operates as a Trusted Flagger.

I would complain Europeans aren’t trying hard enough but we speak too many languages

This package throws away data privacy and replaces it with a “tell us if this counts a personal data” model while treating AI as a legitimate interest allowing companies to completely bypass any data privacy protections. Media companies and mobile _devices_ would be exempted from data consent.

I’m about 70% through building a replacement tool for handling AWS access management from slack and it’s surprisingly not terrible. Going to finish the core logic today and wrap it up tomorrow then pivot to finishing up a mockup I’ve been chewing. At some point I’ll start the ts course.

The two hardest problems in Computer Science are 1. Human communication 2. Getting people in tech to believe that human communication is important

Continuing its trend, the FDA is now informing apparel companies making binders for trans people that they cannot sell medical devices.

@chipnick.com 's talk at @eurosky.social was superb. It came late in the day and you could feel the energy surge while they spoke. #AtmosphereConf better approve :)

Submitted my talk for #AtmosphereConf Not saying what it is because I need to wrap up the specification and start prototyping asap but it’s something for the community

I need a sharper bread knife #BreadSky

Fresh bake for #BreadSky

Back on my bread baking obsession. This time I’ve got a great book friends gifted me and a proper enamel Dutch over from my wife. And they didn’t coordinate these birthday gifts.

switching your atproto app to an indie relay has had some downsides for most of this year, bc indies have been running different (newer) code than bsky.network, and there have been some bugs. but the biggest bugs seem resolved now, and bsky.network will run the same newer code soon!

Is there a EU domain registrar with a modern domain/dns interface or do they all have circa 00s design with enterprisey vibes.

Accidentally said the quiet part out loud at a meeting how we’re selling our souls for business value and got weird looks.

Love everything about this!

A gentle reminder if you've received an invoice from a Freelancer/Self employed person which is due before Christmas. Be a love, and pay it today.

Time to step into the internet handle Fettnäpfchen, it's giving IT Crowd vibes to me. I liked openid and gravatar because the name was simple and evoked what it was while being unique. I'm only full of bad ideas like calling it star sign. What's your sign?

We must usher in a group of ATproto younglings into the chamber of names. The first word uttered shall my the name of our future

I'm really trying to go with eu sovereign tech but DNS has been a mess. dns0.eu had 500ms latencies and dns4eu simply stopped responding on my linux server. Now trying dns.sb, please don't suck.

So preset.io decided to do a major version upgrade on our workspace without telling us, breaking the feature we're paying them for and are now blaming us for opting into it which we didn't. And are now declaring they're in code freeze and can do nothing so we should just switch to a new workspace

Office had a photographer at our event doing free headshots so I got one for fun. Turns out he used a very short focal length so my whole face is squished and incredibly unflattering

I’m fairly certain Snapchat has only survived generation leaps because it failed the social feed shift and has sustained use as a messaging app with a media story feature.
