  • I kinda want to see this fail in Europe. As in Google implements it and pisses the EU the fuck off. Please, I just want to see Google smacked in the mouth for implementing this, then losing billions fighting it in court while the EU implements digital sovereignty because the US can't be trusted.

    Please. It's the only way people learn. First they have to lose something before understanding what it is they had.

  • I was expecting circular pixels which is what they are on CRTs. Was not expecting non-square rectangles. wtf?

  • If the EU dedicates itself to digital sovereignty before the US starts turning the wheel back away from self-sabotage, we might actually have a chance.

  • I only made it work on desktop because it's the easiest (and that was a hassle as nearly everything is undocumented). On mobile, I wouldn't even know how to begin debugging it nor where to get logs (or if there are any logs).

    From what I understand, you'd have to make the JSON manifest and script available via HTTP(S) somewhere. Update the JSON manifest to point to itself and the script. Then, add a source on mobile and point it at the JSON manifest URL.

    If you're willing to give it a shot, putting it on codeberg and using codeberg pages could work. I'm currently only on radicle. Maybe I can find a way to make that work too 🤔

    Edit: OK, surprisingly it worked... Add this source https://seed.radicle.garden/raw/rad%3AzWzu5sgdan7wuErGDRz1u4JTFEF7/head/MediaCCCConfig.json

    It haven't figured out how to sign the plugin itself. There's no documentation...

  • Many questions are going through my head, but it looks like they would rather spend time implementing activitypub support in voctoweb than implementing peertube publishing in voctopublish.

  • I upped my donation to them this year. They really do deserve it.

  • I'm not sure if I talked to a representative but the last information I had from 3 years ago was that "peertube didn't fit into the publishing workflow". Something about bash scripts or something that had to be updated which were specifically tied to the streaming infrastructure do upload videos as quickly as possible. From the explanation I recall, the publishing workflow isn't modular and a bunch of hacked together scripts that have been used since forever.

    There was also a question about financing / sponsoring since the videos are also available directly on a CDN.

    And finally, the video files have some extra fancy tracks with some additional media? Not sure. I've only ever played them in the browser and assume the large majority will do the same so the tracks will rarely get taken advantage of.

    My assumption is that the real reason is a lot of work went into it and there's an amount of pride + the sunken cost and probably lack of resources. Although, if they asked the community to contribute, they'd probably have some excited participants.

  • The CCC has multiple conferences a year but the biggest one is the ${conferenceNumber}C3 (this year conferenceNumber = 39 --> 39C3).

    They always upload stuff to their own media instance based on voctoweb (which is undiscoverable unless somebody shares it) or youtube which can recommend it you and you can subscribe to their channel where they publish every single talk.

    I'm trying to degoogle and the CCC just refuses to setup a peertube instance (or join one) and upload their stuff there (a common theme for opensource and hacking conferences). So, short of writing a script that mirrors all CCC media to a peertube instance, this is the best I could do on my winter break.

    Feel free to fork it should media.ccc.de introduce new features. I'll probably update it yearly to consume the ${conferenceNumber}C3 conferences.

  • Hey, this is @haui@mastodon.giftedmc.com I think.

    I like the idea of an opensource job board. Conceptually, I think the biggest conceptual issue before getting this off the ground is privacy.

    Sure, most information on job boards and profiles of workers are to be public, but there is some information that should stay only accessible to certain people e.g your phone number, email address, current place of employment and other stuff should only be visible if given access. Some people don't care about that at all and would even put their home address online, but some people don't want to be tracked everywhere or found and contacted easily e.g you make a comment somebody disagrees with and they start dogpiling you.

    I think certain information should be encrypted and only exchanged/shared with somebody you really want to share it with. Otherwise you have to put all your trust into some person hosting the instance. Right now, we do put trust in fediverse instances, but the date I'm putting out here would hopefully not make it easy to identify me. It will be difficult and maybe inconvenient to have no personal information on a job board. Unless of course the job board is just for publish jobs and won't have public, professional profiles.

  • Why is that better?

  • 1980s called, they want their slang back.

  • Apple has been shit since 2004. Good to know

  • Description lists?

    Richtext? Like this or this ?

    SVG handling? I've never seen a manpage with SVGs nor have I seen a manpage with images, much less image captions.

  • For double the pay, I'd work overtime to get something done - if I like it. I used to work 50-60 hour weeks with no overtime pay (yes, yes, I was exploited). Had I been paid overtime and at double the rate, it would've pushed my annual salary to 1.5-2x . But my guess is that either the manager would've been fired for being shit, I would've been fired for costing too much, or they would've simply hired another engineer to join the team (we did need more engineers).

  • I'll never understand why these guys aren't on the fediverse. They could put all their videos on peertube and it would be much easier to engage with.

  • CrApple users exist that understand crApple is a surveillance platform? That's impressive. Most users seem to be so entranced by the marketing, shiny gadgets, and shiny symbols that they don't want to know what's happening underneath.

  • How should strings be terminated? Should they always be a tuple of length in bytes and data?

  • Where's his wheel? 😋

    Beautiful ferris though. That's a very nice present.

  • Dumb, ignorant people voting for dumb, ignorant people gets you dumb, ignorant people at the top. What a surprise!

    If the well is full of shit, you'll only be pulling shit to the top.
