We can now officially call him the twice-impeached, four-times indicted, two-times GAGGED former president of the U.S. We all know he’s going to violate the gag order and he’ll be back in front of that judge he hates so much, but that’s the way things go in court. Keep pushing, though, and he may really regret the inability to keep his damn mouth shut.

#Element has been problematic lately, which pushed me to exploring other #Matrix clients on Linux.

And I have to say that Nheko makes a fantastic first impression. If you're looking for an alternative, it's worth a look.

(tip: If you have trouble initiating the verification process from the new Nheko install, try initiating the process from your other device first).

Anyone else hoping that Judge Chutkan rules from the bench today and puts a gag order on Trump? He may be running for president, but he has no right to intimidate witnesses or court staff, nor to taint the jury pool.

it's an honest living

So its done! I finally released a fairly easy to install (from scratch) Hugo based Static Site generator with full ActivityPub support.

It has step-by-step instructions on how to set it up for your own blog or static website.

One of the coolest features for me, other than having your static site blog posts show up as posts in the Fediverse is the support for interacting with those posts. Any replies you leave, likes, or boosts will show up in the "comments" section of the website on the page associated with the post. How cool is that!
