Today, I’m on a flight, knowing that hundreds of #NoKingsDay protests are happening along my flight path from Austin to San Diego. 👏

I hope to join in when I land. Stay safe!

A Saturday at the airport reminds me I’m happy to be the cool guncle and not the parent.

#Meshtastic node is live! But lonely. 😞

Need a few likes, boosts, and a reply or two on the post below that needs zero explanation. Testing push notifications.

An interesting thing is happening on TikTok. Creators are pointing people to their websites and newsletters as ways to follow them as it become more likely the ban will happen. NOT directly to Instagram or YouTube.

Sure, they recommend following on those other platforms, but over and over again, they say the BEST way to keep in contact is through their own personal domain.

I like it.

Setting up various ActivityPub implementations lately (small, single user stuff and one larger one). The incoming requests are rivers of DELETEs, most of which have never actually interacted my instance before.

I understand the reasoning, but wish there was a layer above my instance directing irrelevant AP traffic away from my little single user server.

Recommendation: Don't federate with large instances if you're just tinkering around with stuff.
