Is your institution a W3C member? Do you like decentralised social networks? You probably do since you're reading this on Mastodon. Ask your AC rep to vote on ActivityPub today! (or, before the 16th of Jan). If your instance is up to date, you're probably using this standard right now. It would be a shame if it didn't become an official W3C Recommendation.

I was trippin balls in Joshua Tree last February. Came out of my tent as the sun was setting over the boulders. The campers next to us were singing goodbye to the sun. They had pan flutes. And accordions. And guitars. They were busking their little hearts out. That night, all they talked about was their magic wizard powers and love for one another.

There’s a moment in Code Rush, the 2000 Netscape documentary where Jamie Zawinski (who should be here?) says, this is a new medium, but if we don’t watch it this could end up like television. It could be controlled by a few big companies. It really hurt the heart.

Give someone a fish and you feed them for a day, teach them to fish and you feed them for a lifetime, but sell them a license for fishing software and they will forever depend on you for their fish because they never learned to make their own fishing software and the software and hardware architecture of contemporary computers is so complex that to learn to automate something in them is an incredibly lengthy process.

Favourite games of all time? Quite a selection so far... (this is a PC forum so some bias! !)

Like the hill peoples with their challenging terrain and confusing nomenclature, within the decentralized social networks I think it would be good to maintain algorithms which are counter-hegemonic, defending against invasive species or totalizing projects which might otherwise come to dominate the zone.

One way of implementing this is to do things similar to SSB, in which the best way to search through the space is to have real social relations. The ability to bypass social relations with purely technical methods is I think one of the main problems with the centralized social networks.
