So newlines in Markdown code blocks just disappear. The raw ActivityPub data shows no \n

#Smithereen update: group and event invitations!
Yes, these do federate. No, they aren't compatible with anything else out there.
The current state of printers, man... I just want to print one fxxxxxx sheet of paper.
I can't find the printer on my network.
The printer is offline.
The printer's driver is outdated.
The printer "requires" an unholy amount of bloatware, 5+ separate applications, 3 of which occupy my taskbar.
I need to sign into a HP account to see my current printer jobs.
The printer software shows no jobs in progress.
On and on and on.
I want to show you that that Internet you used to go exploring is still very much there. There are still tons of small personal websites, and a wealth of long form text from both the past and the present.
So it's a search engine. It's perhaps not the greatest at finding what you already knew was there, instead it is designed to help you find some things you didn't even know you were looking for.
Bund.de is the official German government portal for doing government-related paperwork online.
They have now created their own Mastodon instance at social.bund.de which contains some official accounts. You can find them on the instance's directory page:
➡️ https://social.bund.de/explore (in German)
This is a really promising sign! The Fediverse can allow citizens to interact with public officials without having to give away personal data.
Music enjoyers: How do you sort your music files? What do you recommend?
Right now, for all music I download in 2022, I have:
music/2022/<artist>/<track_title>.ogg
But this has some issues. I want a general timeline of music by year of download, but then some songs by the same artist a separated into different years. Do I instead ditch the years thing and use/abuse the files' modified time stat? Do you have a different approach?
New post on the Spritely blog! @tsyesika writes about "Petname Systems"! https://spritelyproject.org/news/petname-systems.html
Somehow I've never seen these shots of the map editor for MadSpace, a Russian non-euclidean DOS fps. Just about what I expected. #DOSGaming
