Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.
The fediverse is safer because of 
@thisismissemEmelia ๐ธ๐ป
Her tireless dedication to trust and security protects us all, but this work requires resources.
I'm seeking organizations to sponsor her ($500+/mo) to ensure this mission continues.
Her value to our ecosystem is immeasurable.
I personally vouch for her expertise and impact, as many leaders in this space will. We cannot afford to lose her contributions.
Please boost and mention orgs on the fedi with this toot ๐

@Mastodon, Rochko shared why Threads federation fell flat, why #ActivityPub and #ATProto will likely never merge, and what it will take to grow the #Fediverse.

The shift to cargo bike logistics is great, but it requires a parallel shift in infrastructure. When you replace a delivery van with a cargo bike, you are moving freight capacity from the road to the bike lane. If you don't expand the bike lane to handle it, you're just creating a bottleneck.
Announcing our Winter 2025 merch drop! Select from our new, smaller #plushtodon in two fresh colours; new mug designs to complete your set; or some sticker sheets (more of these, coming soon). All proceeds go towards supporting the project.
Accepting orders from the EU, Switzerland, Norway, UK, and the US. #merchtodon
You may have seen it over on @Mastodon, but in case not: The new plushies are now live on the shop, alongside restocked and new mugs. Shipping to EU, UK, Switzerland, Norway, and the US. We decided to allow orders from the US, but shipping is what it is (from Germany).
Switzerland voted today on two big questions. Tax the rich and a year in public service. In both cases the result was a resounding NO. Only Bern, the city voted with 50.75% FOR Tax The Rich (and a small village with population 34 ;).

So for about a year and a half, I've been sharing (almost) daily songs on my instagram [^1], trying to find unique songs every day that I actually like. Almost no one actually listened to them, and I did repeat songs sometimes since the year milestone has passed, but it was a good exercise to push me out of my comfort zone a little, since I otherwise just listen to the same things on loop until I'm psycho-acoustically satiated. It's nice :)
However, I broke my phone in early September, and since you can't share music notes on the web version, I've basically stopped doing that. Thankfully, I finally set up my new phone and so I have youtube and insta back (somewhat unfortunately, but cf [^1]), so I can start again :D
And now that I've got this account right here, I'll also try to post it here when I can remember and have the energy to. Or maybe I'll set up a script to do it for me, who knows. (I'd also like to put them on my site when it *isn't* under construction anymore.)
So, please welcome back **zoรซ's song of the day**, here's to many more songs :)
Here's an archive of every song I've used for zsotd, though it isn't quite in chronological order of youtube deleting music videos every now and then:

My contribution to the game difficulty debate is I made an SMB3 style platformer with a mode where dying simply pops you back up immediately on a flying cloud and with cheats beyond that
Just like I made a turnbased roguelike with a mode that gives you infinite lives, which also has a cheat menu
(And you can pick those up for $20 as a bundle with our other two games, an adorable block pushing puzzler and an SMB1-like prequel to the gay foxgirl platformer Kitsune Tails https://itch.io/s/169922/kitsune-games-bundle)

Short PSA for all the Minecraft admins on here: Please consider setting "hide-online-players" in your "server.properties" to true. Doing so will do no harm and instead help protect the privacy of your players.

Admins, protect the privacy of your players!
By default, Minecraft servers publish a sample of their currently online players through their Status Response which is shown by the client when hovering over the player count field in the multiplayer menu.
