@are0h Oh, I'll need to look into this! Is it like Github/lab / Codeberg, etc., but using AtProto instead of Git?
@candide Git with AtProto. It’s all git under the hood, but uses AT to handle the identity bits.

Maybe conservatives would be okay with abortion if they knew that all fetuses start out female.

I wrote up my personal philosophy on translating ancient texts, as informed by being raised in a religious environment that had a very unhealthy relationship to its texts. https://xn--hmr.net/classicalchinese/translationphilosophy/
@ramsey I don’t really understand web mentions, so we’re probably talking past one another.
But just to pick up on that one point: the JSON is specced.
Here is the Status spec: https://docs.joinmastodon.org/entities/Status/
Again, I’m concious that I’m just plucking a single half sentence out of your post to pick on. Apologies if I’m missing your point entirely!
@michael I could parse it, but since it’s specific only to Mastodon, I’d have to do a multi-stage parse:
1. Fetch the URL, check for Webmention
2. If fails, fetch again with Accept application/json, check that it’s a Mastodon server (how?) and parse according to Mastodon spec
3. If I got JSON, but it’s not a Mastodon server, what do I do?

Recupero vecchio PC fatto, #netbook per l'esattezza. La ram è rimasta 1gb, ma adesso è stato messo un SSD. Volevo installare #puppylinux ma mi dava problemi ad avviare la live. Ho messo #antix e nessun problema. 90mb di RAM o giù di lì all'avvio e ci ritroviamo con un aggeggio funzionante. In futuro, sarà utilizzato per streaming di musica e/o server.
Comunque, vedere quell'aggeggio, in precedenza completamente inutile, funzionare con un'interfaccia grafica assolutamente utilizzabile è pazzesco. Giaceva inutilizzato e abbandonato da diversi anni. Bello.

Holy fucking cocaine Batman.
Does anyone look at pinned posts? I forget they exist then very occasionally remember. I almost never look at other peoples, but am going to try from now on. I'm never really sure what to have as mine. I used to have my introduction posts but then changed it to include my posts that people interacted with the most as that seemed to make more sense. But I think I might change that to my weirdest (and often least interacted with) posts that make me laugh, because that would tickle me. What are your thoughts?... 😊
Edit - I think you should all boost your pinned posts or old posts you're particularly pleased with or just want to see the light of day again. Let loose your flying monkeys. Fly, my pretties!
@TheBreadmonkey I do read other’s pinned posts. It’s a fun way to glimpse into the psyche I guess. Currently I have only one - introduction. I don’t even which of my posts got significant traction. Should I pin them??

I sometimes wonder what my parents did to pass the time before they had the Internet.
I asked my 17 brothers and sisters, and they didn't know either.

No one.
But that's not the point now, is it? The point is to further undermine the bargaining position of actual musicians.
That's the point. That's always been the point, that's always been the goal.
It's not that AI-generated "music" is good, or that people want it, or that it's even music. The point has been to use AI, however bad or broken it is, as an excuse to undermine the financial position of artists.
As is typical for actually existing AI, its purpose is to undermine labor.

I tooted a week or so ago a pic of what I thought was my last apple tree to bloom. But I’d forgotten about this one. Mère de ménage which produces an apple perfect for the classic Apple Charlotte dessert. Chap who came to help prune was amazed the tree was still standing, let alone alive. It leans at an impossible angle and the trunk is more dead wood than live. It had a gentle prune to remove dead weight and it seems so much better for it. The bees appreciate it too 🐝💚.
