I did notice the @handle.invalid! Thanks!
I did notice the @handle.invalid! Thanks!
My understanding was that activitypub was basically a rough formalization of existing protocols, designed to be as flexible as possible. More a template than a real protocol. Unfortunately mastodon’s popularity basically made a bunch of things de-facto obligatory but not well documented, and there’s still a bunch of ways to do… anything.
That link doesn’t work for me, but I ended up finding a post by them that seems to correspond. Good to know, thanks! Seems like it’s realistic but expensive still (150$/mo?), and it’s not gonna get cheaper… I hope they figure out a way to make them less centralized.
I believe that’s your handle, not your identity. Your handle resolves to your identity, but your identity isn’t directly tied to it, in case you lose the domain.
The aggregator is called the Relay, and I haven’t even found anything suggesting one could realistically selfhost it. Then you need to handle the massive stream of data coming through it with AppViews, which are tough to handle too (there are a few but not many iirc).
That said, I am also impressed with the thought behind ATProtocol. It seems much more robust and defined than ActivityPub.
Bluesky’s federation model is actually quite interesting, they go for a very portable approach vs activitypub’s instance-basis. Unfortunately, there’s still a massive centralization point (the main relay, the only thing that can really handle the firehose), and identity is also centralized, albeit has mechanisms to be decentralized.
Thank you!
I would love to know as well!
Neat! I can’t wait for Cosmic, it’s shaping up to be so nice
Very nice! Does/will cosmic have the ability to style buttons? Those are the main factorio UI feature imo (that and so many slots, which aren’t a normal UI element)
“The transgender topic” is already weird as a statement (kinda like “the gay agenda”, it comes off as only considering it as a political statement?), and “clearly promoted by the bourgeoisie” implies it’s bad.
“As far as […] lgbt flags on government buildings”: it’s… not far at all? Again, weird statement.
“Biological male” is both wrong for the boxer (she’s cis) and generally used for transphobia (trans women on HRT aren’t biological males by any reasonable definition). It’s also generally conspiratorial.
Overall it’s not explicitly transphobic or bad to me, but it shows at minimum a very misinformed perspective.
I’m not an OS dev, I have no idea how stuff this low-level works.
I’d suggest some kind of “press this key to view debug information” text (or make it documented but not visible, to avoid people just pressing whatever button is written on the screen)
Out of curiosity, I looked up the numbers. This is correct, they make 9.2 billion per quarter from ads and 10.7 billion from subscriptions. I can’t find expenses per-segment, but in 2023 their total “Cost of revenues” was 37 billion. I doubt everything other than youtube costs less than 17 billion, so they’re definitely making a profit.

Just to offer some support, you’re right and those are good questions
Fair. Powertoys is really extensive. I quite like Pop (or gnome’s? Not sure) tiling window manager though.
PopOS’s COSMIC menu is like that I think (you can search files, the web, even stuff like turning volume up and down)? But I’ve never tried to run it outside of PopOS.
Happy birthday! This song’s cool
There’s a few (much smaller-scale) walls like that around where I live and I always find them so pretty <3
Yeah, did:web exists, but I still called it centralized because it still relies on did:plc pretty much everywhere (though honestly domain name handles might actually be did:web, not sure). Didn’t know about that dual setup by Bluesky though!
