  • Why ActivityPub over Nostr? - function only

    Jump

  • See Wikipedia:

    The Nostr protocol was first written in 2020 by a Brazilian open source developer known by the pseudonym "fiatjaf" as a response to perceived moderation issues on Twitter, as well as both technical and cultural disagreements with other protocols such as ActivityPub and Secure Scuttlebutt.

    Looks like it was never about function or protocol in the first place.

    In 2024, in an article reporting on the project's funding, Business Insider claimed to have identified fiatjaf, and had found two websites previously published by this person to disseminate the work of Olavo de Carvalho, a far-right conspiracy theorist.

    Sounds lovely and taking one look at a random relay confirms this. The only things discussed there are Bitcoin, "Women-are-evil-because-they-dont-sex-me" and some AI bullshit.

  • Funnily enough, the decree banning the use of Schwabacher Judenlettern ("Jew-letters of Schwabach") went out using a Nazi party letter head that was printed in a Fraktur typeface.

  • Solutions for remote access?

    Jump

  • No, I use a second reverse proxy for my local network. For example, I can resolve navidrome either via my VPS using navidrome.mydomain.net or directly in my local network with the address navidrome.local.mydomain.net. I also configured the local caddy reverse proxy with a DNS provider module to get LetsEncrypt certificates for my local addresses.

  • I use a wireguard tunnel that connects to a cheap VPS and then configured a caddy reverse proxy on that VPS that makes my services available on the internet.

  • Fairphone open sources software for Fairphone 5, 6, and the Moments switch

    Jump

  • Phone calls are broken on both the Fairphone 4 and 5. The Fairphone 4 has some issue where the microphone has really low gain so I had to almost scream and after the last update in April I just couldn't make or receive calls any longer. It worked once I rebooted but after a few hours it stopped again. The Fairphone 5 developed a similar issue after the upgrade to Android 15, phone calls just stop working after a while.

    Another ridiculous issue is that the background image of the Fairphone 5 keeps resetting to the default blue image.

    I switched to a Pixel with GrapheneOS instead. This has its own little issues but at least phone calls work reliably on my phone.

  • Good maybe someone can now fix the half broken mess that is the Fairphone 5. After two Fairphones with buggy software, I am so done with them.

    Funniest thing I I've seen in ages.

    Seriously, this always happens. At some point the investors want a huge payout and they will get it by exploiting existing users or they just shutdown the whole company and strip it for parts.

  • Amber the programming language compiled to Bash, 0.5.1 release

    Jump

  • This is an interesting idea and from the looks of it well executed, but I am having trouble imagining a scenario were I would prefer to use Amber over a scripting language like Python. If your bash scripts are getting long enough to warrant the use of Amber you are probably already in a situation where you can justify installing Python.
