Morning. Still muggy, apparently the air needed a firmware update.
Training this weekend, plus a full rewrite of my personal site. Hard to talk sovereign data while your own site lives like a rented couch.
Rebuilding on AT Proto. Prototype’s ready. Behind the scenes? Cool as hell.
Coffee’s on. ☕️
Morning. Muggy enough to sip the air.
CF-18s over Toronto for FIFA prep. Flew right over my house. Neighbour to the south keeps acting like a bad toddler.
FIFA tickets in the U.S. are wobbling too. “Welcome to the world” works better when you don’t act like a fascist theme park.
Coffee’s on. ☕️
Morning. Good training day yesterday, so the rain has gifted me a guilt-free pass from yard work.
Coffee’s on while I plug away at moving my personal site to the AT Protocol. Sovereign data starts at home, with mild technical profanity.
New post soon.
What’s everyone else doing? ☕🌧️
Morning. Chilly out, welcome El Niño coffee in hand, and apparently weather reports are partisan now. The circus went on, because of course it did.
Meanwhile, I’ve unhinged my site at jasonbu.online. It’s a WIP, so it’ll break honestly, unlike empires pretending all is fine.
Follow along.☕️📖
My professional data is mine. Sifa allows me to store it in my own PDS, not locked in a billionaire’s system.
Congrats to @eurosky.social on their launch of mu.social 🪿❤️🐄
A few unique features to start: editing posts, a news tab with a collection of European sources, and trusted verifiers - details in the thread below.
@offprint.app , @aka.dad ... how does one add tags to a publication?
Rebuilding my site and want to place articles I publish using offprint into categories. @standard.site has the tags in the lexicon but not sure how they get added in the offprint interface.
(p.s. working on getting the pro)
The Win Was Never Bluesky. It Was the Protocol.
The better question is whether we can stop rebuilding the same landlord model with a different logo on the door. Right now, our social graphs are corporate hostage...
