I did some really basic searching and it looks like something like Yunohost might have some ActivityPub modules, and it does have some blogging modules that might work. I have not used this, so I can’t say how good or bad it is, but it seemed to have potential.

Goddammit. It’s my moronic senator behind that. Figures. I’m not sure he reaches Tuberville or Inhofe levels of stupid, but he is a terrible person.

I’ll see what I can do when I get an opportunity. I installed it and tried it, but since I didn’t have time to really dig in, I uninstalled it after the first sanity pass failed. This was Firefox 115.02 (64-bit) Windows 10.

I hate how the Star Wars fans respond to PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING. I was the biggest Star Wars geek as a kid; it was THE thing I collected and played with extensively. As many characters as I could get, ships. Made my own stuff. Generally freaking appalled at everyone’s behavior since then.

Wish it would work for me. It’s a good idea, but C-n and C-p just bring up a new page and print dialog respectively.

Also Gen X (1971) and while I remember it in first grade (so this would have been around 1976-77) I don’t think it continued much past 1st grade. MAYBE 2nd. So I lucked out there I suppose. I cannot imagine getting indoctrinated by JBS though. I’m sure it would have gone down well in a lot of the midwest where I grew up, but I suppose I also lucked out there in that the school board and staff were pretty apolitical when it came to school structure.

Yeah, it should have been a A level criticality – functionally impossible to relay bad information, tri mode redundancy, shut down if it detects itself in error, etc.

I don’t know if it’s technical detail translating poorly into journalism, but from reading up on it, I don’t believe it was just a sensor deploying at the wrong time. It was a sensor providing flight stability critical information with no tri-mode redundancy built in (sold secondarily as a “safety mechanism” reporting incorrectly, causing MCAS to react fatally.

I think that “sensor with no redundancy” is a pretty important fact.

Yes, apparently firing was ‘enough’ /s

If I understand right, this is a clarification (of sorts) to the standard of “true threat”. Ken White covers a lot of first amendment speech issues and has a very good explanation here: https://popehat.substack.com/p/supreme-court-clarifies-true-threats

So. To the practitioner, or to the internet tough-talker, what does this mean? It means that the law of the land, at least 7-2, is that a threat is only outside the protection of the First Amendment if:

• A reasonable person, familiar with the context, would interpret the threat as a sincere statement of intent to do harm, and
• The speaker was reckless about whether the threat would be taken sincerely — that is, they “consciously disregarded a substantial risk” that it would be taken seriously.

I have a few:

• Babylon 5 : The opening monologue and music score was amazing every time. Definitely an older vibe with this one with flashing images of the cast up as it progressed, but it was very good.
• Westworld Season 1 : I think it was mainly the same for later seasons with slight variations. The simple piano tune building for the whole intro was beautiful and while watching back to back would absolutely let it run maybe every other episode, or every third.
• Eureka Season 1 : The score by Mothersbaugh and quirky art is really fun and conveys the definite style of the show.

I use GK for everything and usually only use CLI when there’s something a little exotic. I like seeing it update in real time on another screen and I like the diff engine for quickly assessing changes and making sure everything I expected was altered and nothing I didn’t. I know there are other tools but GitKraken is the fastest for me.

Also have found it a good tool for teaching other engineers (usually older) how Git works. We tried out Sourcetree but it was super clunky at the time.

If I had to find a tool between pure CLI and pure GUI I’d probably recommend Emacs Magit porcelain. Works quite well.

It was, in fact, hilarious.
