Non-sponsored shoutout to actalis.com, an Italian SSL certificate authority with a generous free plan. I migrated to them from ZeroSSL, it took about 5 minutes of messing with my Caddy config. I think that in today's political climate, it's crucial that we Europeans support European tech.

It's always sad to see how little love Pine64 devices get software-wise. I dug up my PineTime from a drawer, after not using it for more than a year, hoping there would be some flashy new update or maybe an entirely new firmware, but... Nope. InfiniTime was last updated in 2024, WaspOS in 2021.

Starting July 25, Bluesky will require users in the UK to scan their face, upload an ID or verify their identity with a bankcard. I realize that platforms feel they have no choice but to comply with the government surveillance schemes, but shocking nonetheless.

My PDS is acting up a bit, so I want to give a shot to one of the alternative PDS implementations. What do y'all recommend?

Lately I've been trying out SiYuan, a PKM app like Notion, but fully FOSS. It has a couple of rough edges, but I'm liking it so much I've already migrated all my documents from Joplin to it! I've also created a freehand drawing plugin based on js-draw (the same one Joplin uses), it's fun!

Now I need to force myself not to try any more PKM software. It's way too easy for me to spend an infinite time focusing on the setup, without doing any actual work. To help myself with that, I chose to buy a SiYuan premium plan, so now I have some more stake in keeping using SiYuan 😅

I love the "Quiet Posters" feed so much, I really think it's one of the best features of BlueSky. The lack of an algorithm for the Following feed makes it so that the most active users drown out all others, but I've always found that the least active ones produce the best content.

The "Quiet Posters" feed solves this by giving infrequent posters their own space, that is much easier to keep track of as an user. I find myself using it more often than the Following feed!

More context: - I'm changing the authoritative DNS records, so it's not like I'm paying for their DNS service (which they don't offer) - The network fee appears as 0 ETH but it's actually 0.00000003 ETH, which isn't much, but it means that I can't pay it since my wallet is at 0 ETH

I would like to buy a .box domain for myself but I feel weird about it - partly because it costs $120/yr (compared to ~€9/yr for my .net), but also because it's a cryptobros project that thinks providing a ENS together with a DNS provides additional value. I've never seen a sane person use ENS but k

CaveStory is such a masterpiece. Not just for how well-done and fun the game is, but because it was one of the first PC indie games that had enough to compete with commercial games, and create a legacy that still lives on today. The whole game is made by one person - the story, textures, music, 1/

Happy 20th anniversary to Cave Story. One of my favorite games forever!

sounds, character design, game engine, and even the music engine is custom-built to be more efficient than midi. It's often attributed as the game that kicked off the indie genera, and for good reasons. I love seeing the creator of other indie masterpieces paying his homages to mr. Amaya. 2/

I'm so glad I got those "7dbi" gain pig-tail antennas for Meshtastic, being fully aware that no one in my range uses it. At least they were cheap. Kinda.
