What is Hackers' Pub?

If you think I'm flirting with you, it's likely very unintentional.

Like most other things, in socialization, I have no idea what I'm doing. Please let me know if you think I am flirting, and I will try to clarify and/or correct where relevant.

I may have put up quite the facade over the years, but I am really very bad at this human-ing thing.

I've previously complained on here about receiving "reaction" notifications from Apple users in MMS groups

I am happy to say that I have found a workaround on Android:

The `AutoNotification` application (part of the `Tasker` ecosystem) is capable of doing *exactly* what I wanted: blocking notifications from my messaging app based on regular expressions.

This pattern covers most of the notifications that grate on me the worst in my family's group chats (where the ratio of reacts to real messages is usually something like 10:1)

`^(Loved|Liked|Emphasized|Laughed at|Reacted . to) (“.*”|an image|a movie)$`

The upshot of solving the problem like this is that I can also squelch notifications from other applications based on other patterns. Well worth the $2.49.

This podcast episode came out a few years ago. Sad but true that it's still extremely important we act on it now.

With the hype around https://endof10.org , I have a question about Linux as main OS.
I already know Linux quite well, but for my job mostly (programming). However I have almost no experience in using it for what I use on a personal side.

So:
- What's the state of gaming on Linux for very old Windows games?
- What about Photoshop and the Adobe suite in general? (Mostly for my wife who's an artist)
- Is there a non-Ubuntu Debian-based OS good enough for these usages other than Debian itself?

よく聞くやつ

After reviewing FEP-5624: Per-object reply control policies and GoToSocial's interaction policy spec, I find myself leaning toward the latter for long-term considerations, though both have merit.

FEP-5624 is admirably focused and simpler to implement, which I appreciate. However, #GoToSocial's approach seems to offer some architectural advantages:

1. The three-tier permission model (allow/require approval/deny) feels more flexible than binary allow/deny
2. Separating approval objects from interactions appears more secure against forgery
3. The explicit handling of edge cases (mentioned users, post authors) provides clearer semantics
4. The extensible framework allows for handling diverse interaction types, not just replies

I wonder if creating an #FEP that extracts GoToSocial's interaction policy design into a standalone standard might be worthwhile. It could potentially serve as a more comprehensive foundation for access control in #ActivityPub.

This is merely my initial impression though. I'd be curious to hear other developers' perspectives on these approaches.

Really excited to share this image for #MountainMonday today. I took this image on my first ever trip to #Europe last year. We ventured to the #Mountains in Northern Italy for some hiking where we were greeted with freshly snow capped mountains. It made for an incredible welcome to our trip to this area.

This image has become one of my favorites from the trip. Hopefully I will return someday.

Dass die Union kein Bock auf ein AfD-Verbotsverfahren hat, ist gar nicht so überraschend, wenn man bedenkt, dass deren Forderungen, die dann dort auf ihre Vereinbarkeit mit dem Grundgesetz hin untersucht würden, zu einem großen Teil auch von ihr selbst kommen könnten.

You know what I love about the Fediverse?

I don't feel compelled to follow everyone I interact with. My "algorithm" is the timeline I have made for myself, as contributed to by the people I have chosen to follow.

Many interactions are just two ships passing in the night, and that is it. Sometimes, we pass again and I choose to follow. Sometimes, I don't.

But it's not like I have lost all chance to ever see this person again. The algorithm of commercial platforms emphasizes following all interactions, no matter how ephemeral. Because anyone you don't explicitly follow may be lost forever in the soup of populist commercialization.

#Introduction

Hello Fedi, I'm kzimmermann, and now it's no secret that I just moved here from #Fosstodon.

Perhaps my reasons for doing so were not clear. Yes, everyone had a personal reason, but I think mine were a little different, as I had been planning this move for a few months now.

I tried to summarize them here, but ended up writing something of a novel instead. Oh well. Here it goes:
