Wow, this campaign website against Google's plan to kick out XSLT is a thing of beauty. https://xslt.rip/

He’s good, folks

People who follow me may know that I've been without work for some time. I don't talk about it much. I was laid off from a public #benefit corporation undergoing some restructuring just as companies started firing engineers due to the "AI" hype. I'm basically semi-retired at this point, mostly […]

The absolute legends at the Python Software Foundations have turned down $1.5 million in US government funding because that country is so terrified of DEI that they're making funding conditional on being as backward as they are: https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/10/NSF-funding-statement.html […]

Do you know of any blog posts that writes about the small quality of life shortcuts, or cool small "secret" things in the Helix editor? Or do you have some cool snippets or configs you'd like to share? E.g. I didn't know about `x_`. The underscore trims any newlines from the selection, when `x` […]

🇪🇺YOU ARE AMAZING: ❤️ Your protest stopped #ChatControl! I hear Germany isn't caving in; so there's no majority in the EU Council. Digital privacy is safe for now! Let's celebrate this huge success TOGETHER! 🎉 Details […] [Original post on digitalcourage.social]

Today, we’re ready to show you the upcoming quote posts feature in more detail. We’ve put together a blog post with examples of how quote posts will work on Mastodon, ahead of early access on our own servers next week 💬 Full launch to come, in Mastodon v4.5 […]

“Helsinki has not recorded a single traffic fatality in the past 12 months, city and police officials confirmed this week.” City engineer credits lower speed limits and smart design. I agree. #Helsinki #VisionZero

If you haven't tried it yet, I definitely recommend checking Jujutsu Version Control System. I literally heard about it two days ago, started reading through some tutorials, and already feel like this is something exciting and new in the VCS world. You can use it locally on any git repository […]

As a bit of a diversion, I somehow ended up working through the #golang #tutorial this weekend. I don't remotely consider myself much of a programmer. Possibly, a bit of a code janitor. I was just looking for a bit of an introduction to an unfamiliar language. I have to say, #go has some […]

My golang knowledge is pretty basic. I had to do some updates to a product at work, and it was pretty easy and straight forward. Actually quite fun. Just to learn more golang, I started working on a cli-tool for my Niri setup, and it's actually pretty usable already. I just want to polish it and […]

Anyone tried https://www.itter.sh/ here? The concept seems quite cool. It's a microblogging platform entirely run over ssh on a server. From their page: itter.sh is your escape from the noise. It's a micro-blogging platform accessed entirely via SSH. No web browser. No JavaScript. No endless […]

Who's been running their own Mastodon instance for over two years through Cloudflare? And only just now realized that you also need to make the Streaming port (4000) publicly available? Otherwise, things like app notifications & Live feeds don't work […] [Original post on mastodon.rxbrad.com]

On this, the last day of Pride Month, let us remember that LGBTQIA+ folks exist during the other 11 months as well.

The street that my mum lives in is a one-way street, but wasn't marked as such on #google Maps. This caused many drivers to drive the wrong way. I have tried to edit it on Google Maps (there is such functionality), but to no avail. No matter how often I submitted a change (with photos of street […]

A little help goes a looooooong way

With just 32 hours left to go...I can't believe it...they are less than $500 away from meeting the $55k goal, which will add in-app live streaming capabilities. Let's make this happen. 💪🏼 https://support.joinpeertube.org/en/ #peertube #fediverse #activitypub

I'm quite excited about niri. I had some issues getting screen sharing to work with teams and meet, but got that fixed with the help of the community. Steam had minor problems, but that was fixed by following the wiki. Now I have niri working, and I can't wait to daily drive it. Running on […]

Haluatteko kuulla miten vähennetään koulupuukotuksia? Sillä että ei joka helvetin vuosi leikata, supisteta ja tehosteta kaikista nuoriin liittyvistä palveluista ja elinympäristöstä. Ei ajettaisi perheitä yhä syvempään köyhyyteen ja viestittäisi että olette merkityksetöntä paskaa.

Specifically the petition to ban conversion therapy practices is lacking enough votes from: - #germany (49.9%) - #sweden (49.96%) - #Netherlands (94%) - #austria (25.5%) - #slovenia (83.14%) - #portugal (24.46%) If you're a citizen of these countries you can help advance a ban on conversion […]

Like a pair of boots, a good social platform needs wearing in 🥾 We love that building community on the social web doesn't happen overnight. When people first joined platforms like Twitter, they grew their community slowly and carefully. The open social web […] [Original post on newsmast.social]

Hundreds of thousands of Computers won't be able to upgrade to Windows 11, but that shouldn't make them eWaste. Kudos to the @kde team for this amazing initiative! https://endof10.org/

I've currently been doing a tonne of work on Doorkeeper, a Mastodon dependency for OAuth, and currently that work is mostly uncompensated. I'm also doing a reasonable amount of work on the standards side (W3C & IETF), which is also uncompensated. I'm not making ends meet at the moment, so if […]

Discussing privacy and cybersecurity on Reddit and Twitter? That doesn't make too much sense to us. Privacy Guides is doing something different! **Join our forum** to discuss the news, chat about tech, and get advice from the internet's largest community of personal privacy advocates and […]

I've got a quick favour to ask. If you're reading this post on Mastodon (or the Fediverse), please click share. How come? I recently moved across to my own self-hosted single-user server (using GoToSocial.org). For a bunch of reasons, including visibility across the Fedi, it would really help out.

Protect your personal and familial security by maintaining better personal privacy during this US Constitutional Crisis. Take steps now. Remain vigilant. Don't be naive. Disappearing: happening. Violating courts: happening. Unlawful arrests: happening. Dissenter attacks: happening. Lost public […]

Noniin, kesärenkaat vaihdettu autoon. Toivottakaa onnea, että etelään ei enää sataisi paljoa lunta! Viime vuonna tuli 20cm lunta seuraavana päivänä siitä kun vaihdatin kesärenkaat alle :D #kesarenkaat #takatalvi

I'm really sorry to ask but at this moment my gf and me are personally still 274 euros short for rent this month 😟 :sad_cat: It been a rough month.. Luckily all server bills are paid for so thats the biggest part ❤️ If you can miss something, any bit would help out a lot […]

Terve Suomalaiset! My buddy Mark is about to start a 2-month apprenticeship in Kouvola, Suomi, obvsly doesn't know anyone there, and wants to know if there's something like a tabletop gaming club in or near Kouvula. Blood Bowl, 40k, other Warhammer and even MtG, he's game. He's friendly and […]

This is more or less a note to self, because I always forget how to do this. If you're using git credentials helper to store your personal access token and the personal access token expires, you need to update the token. To do this, run `git credential-cache exit` and run `git pull` or `git […]

It's a shame that many people from other countries won't be able to attend PyCon US this year 😞 But there are other international PyCon that are worth attending in your continent 🌍 Also, many national events now have international attendees and speakers 🇺🇳 […] [Original post on fosstodon.org]

Someone reminded me today 9 years ago I submitted my first post on Mastodon—using curl on the command line, since there was no interface at the time. That's how the journey began! 9 years is a long time to be doing something. Those early years are still fresh in my mind though.

@fergus.bsky.social @noupside.bsky.social I mean, it's Francis Fukuyama of "the end of history" fame. As for social media middleware? Yeah, if only there were some way to decentralise social apps. As a middleware layer, they could communicate through some sort of common protocol — it could be […]

Ja tässä vielä esimerkki kahden kuvan kanssa. Sama julkaisu Mastodonissa ja Sopulissa. Näppärää!
