Big news coming tomorrow regarding the #ActivityPub question/answer server I've been working on..

@cwebber I made these diagrams, can you please tell me if my understanding is correct?

Today I will be joining my peers in walking out of the office. I want to make sure Andy Rubin level executives know that their corporate power doesn't shield them from the consequences of being a shitty person.

Following some inspiration from @sir I've implemented CSS only expandable comments for my WIP #activitypub reddit alternative.

Digital Restrictions Management (#DRM) is any technology that is built into an electronic product or service with the aim of limiting its range of uses.

Today is international #DayAgainstDRM: https://www.defectivebydesign.org/dayagainstdrm

Use the day and read on to inform yourself & others about DRM!

We are pleased to announce the release of #Genode 18.08, which continues our story of sculpting Genode into a general-purpose OS. The release specifically addresses the device-driver support of modern PC hardware, the concern of applying microcode updates to Intel CPUs in a timely fashion, the scalability of application workloads, and the interactive usability of the system.

So, great work fediverse, you've shown you can be as toxic as the site you're making so much fun of.

This lie that I am anti-trans, or anti-LGBQ, is deeply hurtful to me (I know it's nothing like the pain LGBTQ people deal with every day, as they simply try to *exist* in a world that treats them so badly, but it is still hurtful in its own way to me). I just want to make it extremely clear: that is a lie, and the people spreading it are misinformed.

So I'm leaving the Fediverse, which has treated me with more cruelty, vitriol, hatred, and contempt than than anyone on the birdsite ever did. 4/x

Fourthly, curious about where go-fed/activity v1.0.0 is going to go?

Are you interested in extended vocabularies like ForgeFed, MoodleNet, or ValueFlows?

Then I got some good news for you: "Go-Fed: Road to v1" is now published as PDF or in golang's present tool format:

https://github.com/go-fed/presentations/blob/master/2018/road-to-v1/road-to-v1.pdf

Well it took me a while because I am hot garbage, but 3 new implementation reports on https://activitypub.rocks/implementation-report/ -- go-fed, microblog.pub, and pleroma! Thanks for the submissions!

Here's a recording of my talk at Hackers on Planet Earth about many of thr awesome things you can do with Qubes OS: the operating system that can protect you even if you get hacked https://livestream.com/internetsociety2/hope/videos/178431606

Who wants to work with me and @dajbelshaw, developing the #ActivityPub based #federated back-end for #MoodleNet?

We're looking for a #developer familiar with #Elixir (or transferable skills like #Erlang and #RubyOnRails).

The whole project will be #FOSS and you can work from home, what's not to love ;-) Please RT!
