Ah, Elon Musk. He tried to be the Henry Ford of space travel but instead became the Liz Truss of social media.

weird, the type checker keeps rejecting my program and the error message just says "this ain't it chief" or "not the vibe"

twitter fedi meta 

thinking about all the time and effort that was wasted by people trying to "fix" twitter only for it to be bought by an impulsive billionaire who is setting it on fire, and how the real move was to build an alternative for people to come to following it's inevitable collapse. thinking about how this scales to other similarly doomed systems.

Wild how conservative objections to things are either entirely unconnected to reality or are good things actually

@kim I mean, in fairness, this project has been spawning many other projects in further stages of completion!

The output on the screenshot is actually from a separate project I'm working on, a sort of GraphQL-inspired system API: git.cryto.net/joepie91/cvm/src

The idea basically being that you have one coherently-structured (but extensible) API to query everything from hardware to system configuration (and eventually also modify a good chunk of it).

This is the page rendered by that linked template for example, all data queried from that API:

Als je tegelijkertijd leest dat Pfizer €21 miljard winst maakt en dat passende zorg voor de burger niet meer gegarandeerd kan worden, is de eenvoudige conclusie dat doorgeslagen marktwerking in de zorg het probleem is.

@kim By this point it is like a decade overdue so I wouldn't get your hopes up too much :p

@Peetz0r @ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt @Slowpoke I do still have the original CD case, though I think it's a bit cracked. It had Lego nubs on the bit of plastic next to the window!

@ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt @Slowpoke Ohh I remember Lego Loco! Quite enjoyed that game as a kid

Hey, I'm looking for a specific fedi instance recommendation

Allows bots (it won't be an annoying bot)
Has a long (>1500) max toot length
Supports text/html toots or similar (not upstream mastodon, but glitch-soc and some other forks are fine)

@PeterR@mastodon.social We could call it impersonation.space

Survived day 1 of Dutch #Pinball Open: build up and tournaments + recreational play on soooo many games (pics are just the tip of the iceberg) in the amazing Dutch Pinball Museum in #rotterdam, two more days to go

There are till tickets available too!

twitter 

but it would be really hilarious if they just deleted twitter and replaced it with a mastodon install as a cost-saving measure

I should do a proper #intro shouldn't I? Hi, I'm Wren! I'm the creative director of indie game Unpacking, a pixel artist and UX/UI designer. I also like arts & crafts, singing, and languages!

Now the way the Internet Archive is doing mastodon is how more organisations and celebs should be joining the fediverse!

They have a dedicated in house instance, which lets you identify official staff, and gives them control and security over their content, whilst also allowing people and instances to opt in or out of interacting with them

Kudos for doing it right @internetarchive!
