If as a #libertarian you like to explain to people that you're "not on the left or the right," but then you harp relentlessly about the excesses of #wokeism while shrugging and remaining largely silent about DeSantis's culture war or attacks on drag shows, consider that you are in fact not nonpartisan at all, but in fact very much on the conservative right.

Please please PLEASE make DNS records for your services. You can't just put a dotted quad in your HTML, .pls file, or really anything anymore and expect it to work everywhere. It's bad enough that your service is legacy-only, but absent a DNS entry, I can't reach your service from my NAT64/DNS64 network without manual intervention. Don't assume I'm running CLAT or in any way have a working AF_INET socket.

This plea brought to you in frustration trying to listen to Radio Free Fedi. I'm not tagging them in this post because it appears they're using a third-party streaming provider who really should know better.

Anyone have an interesting blog that uses the WordPress ActivityPub plugin?

If so, please leave a link/handle as a reply to this post.

(And even if you don't, please forward this thread on so it can reach people who do.)

Does anyone know someone in Sydney who wants to be a Deputy CIO?

It is a good role for someone who would like to be a CIO one day or for someone who is toward end of their career who wants to give back.

Please DM me. And please RT.

The @EclipseFdn is trying out @matrix as a chat service: https://chat-staging.eclipse.org/docs/

Your chance to take a look, try it out, and provide some feedback!

Dear devs,

It's NEVER ok to lock people out of a webapp because their User-Agent doesn't match your predefined list. 😡

Especially webapps they need to manage their healthcare.

(I am in fact using one of the browsers on this list, your code just isn't able to tell.)

Please boost for basic education.
