I bet most people who are still on iOS 18 haven’t upgraded because of a lack of storage space. It always surprises me when I look at family and friend’s phones and they’re on an ancient iOS version because they don’t want to delete any photos or videos or pay for iCloud

Congrats to Bluesky for raising $100 million in Series B funding by Bain Capital Crypto. Such a reaffirming and historic day for the open social web.

OK so i was trying to configure iodine on my server right. Turns out it’s impossible to configure a DNS server to just hand over queries for some subdomain to a specific ip+port, it must be a “delegation” and for that you need a whole ass separate server with its own IP address. Fucking rich assholes designing this stupid garbage

I don’t see how you can build a VC-supported free product without slipping into the Torment Nexus which is to say AdTech.
I do believe the Bluesky people really do want to try to do this. But I still don’t see how.
@timbray I am shocked, shocked to learn that the not-actually-federated, locked-in social network started by a bunch of cryptocurrency people is all in on cryptocurrency, VC and ads.
I cannot comprehend why you keep giving them the benefit of the doubt. They have told you who they are, repeatedly.

So I got this bot that allows multiple people to curate a list of toots that are boosted by it, to create a nice topical account to follow.
Now I only need ideas what to boost haha :)

RE: https://indieweb.social/@tg/116257317198714582
I’ve been thinking about this in terms of ongoing cost vs ongoing value.
If an app doesn’t have ongoing cost then why should it be paid for every month?
vs
If an app provides me ongoing value then why shouldn’t I keep paying for it?
The old Sketch model where you pay for a year of upgrades and get to keep what you have when you stop paying still feels like the best compromise.
Ich hoffe ihr könnt mir helfen.
Ich will gerade ein Linux Mint parallel zu Windows installieren. Ich möchte das mit Hardware Treibern für Drittanbieter installieren.
Dabei werde ich aufgefordert ein UEFI Secure Boot Passwort zu vergeben, damit diese Treiber installiert werden können. Dieses muss ich dann beim Reboot neu eingeben.
Frage:
Muss ich dieses Passwort dann jedesmal beim Booten eingeben? Oder nur einmal beim Reboot nach der Installation und danach nie wieder?
Ersteres wäre inakzeptabel. Letzteres beträfe ja nur mich einmalig bei der Installation. Das wäre OK.

@offby1Chris is. respectfully it does not matter who buys the tool _today_. If you are taking a dependency on that tool, then the owning company decides the priorities, resourcing, direction and leadership of that tool, which definitely matters.

I'm beginning to suspect that some core deontological programming is starting to cause significant bugs in ethical reasoning across the entire system.
I'm really struggling with the idea that the responsibility to correct for corporate evil resides with individuals, and that failing to do so constitutes some form of evil itself.
It would seem tantamount to castigating individuals for not recycling "enough" when the true cause of pollution lies with industry.
It would seem a way for capital to coerce the pro-human and anti-capital to tear each other apart, causing nothing but self-inflicted wounds.
Then again, blithe oblivion to whence one's resources come also seems irresponsible.
But like, I have work to do that is more important than choosing the least impure tool every goddamn day.

Q: Why so many unfinished projects?
I care about each line of code i write, what it does, how and why it exists, so I can actually maintain it.
I’d rather have an incomplete codebase I can revisit and trust, than ship something generated overnight without context or ownership.
Maintenance requires context, not just code:
- Clear problem definition
- Good architecture
- Solid system design
- Long-term ownership
- Discipline in testing and refactoring
That’s engineering.
I suspect I am going to get a lot of use out of this new sticker design.
Somebody found the bag of Lego sets.

I’m still looking for resources here if you know of any (tl;dr a company threatening debt collection over an account they admit is not mine).
I suspect a single piece of correspondence on law-firm letterhead resolves this, but for every firm I've talked to the dollar amount at issue is too low to even justify talking to one of their attorneys.

Vincent got in my lap and demanded all of the snuggles, until he was so overflowing with love that he had to get onto the bed and start attacking his brother. 
He amusingly also timed his attacks to escalate along with the music I was listening to.
Here's an example of Fariña's near-perfect mimicry skills. No wonder why I can't find him half the time.
