Hi! You are viewing the archive of unrelenting.technology. This website is no longer updated, my current one is val.packett.cool. Check it out instead :)

Replies

Replies are basically my comments to others' posts, posted on my own website. I'm not sure why you'd want to browse this, but here you go.

By the way, your wordpress has two indieweb issues currently:

  • notes have type h-as-note (which is unnecessary) but not h-entry (which is absolutely required) — as a result my replies have just a link to your note instead of a nice reply-context;
  • replies to comments are just wordpress comments that have no permalink — as a result my site can’t show them as replies (I guess you could just not use WP comment replies and reply with reply posts deliberately…).

But yeah, I went with a homemade solution. That was… a lot of time spent. Though I did everything in the hardest way possible :D

How would you even post a like-action without a URL though?

I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but any feedback, ideas, proposals are always appreciated, e.g. on https://community.remotestorage.io/ ! Would love to discuss how to integrate the two better.

I mean, an alternative endpoint discovery mechanism — if WebFinger is not available, just fetch the URL and look up links with the remotestorage rel in the Link HTTP header and HTML body, the same way Micropub and Webmention endpoints are discovered.

9 years later, I'm blogging again 2 min read I started my first blog in 2005, only to suspend it in 2008. However, my urge to break the character and formatting limits of Twitter, Mastodon, and short-form status posts in general, has been growing for years now. So I think it's finally time to blog again. No 10-page thinkpieces, but slightly longer-form thoughts and ideas, plus maybe the occasional essay. Topics will mostly be decentralized (pardon the Zs) and federated Web an…

nice! I’ve been thinking about remoteStorage + IndieWeb… would be nice if remoteStorage got an option to use a link rel instead of WebFinger :)

That “sexual partner” comparison sounds somewhat inappropriate ;) seriously though, when Troy Hunt complained about non-HTTPS trackers, a Disqus employee showed up and turned tracking off for his site. It sounds like there’s a checkbox that disables the tracking!

Interesting, so it gave you both micro.blog/t and tantek.micro.blog and the former one shows posts from your website as well as from the new .micro.blog subdomain…

Maybe we can now take most of the services off Amazon? Centralizing the Internet sucks…

More importantly perharps, can we get everything off CloudFlare…

“The F key are not F, but multimedia by default” you can change that in firmware settings, or temporarily by using the Fn Lock.

The smaller {[ etc. keys — that’s only on the ISO layout! My ANSI X240 has these keys normal sized.

Opening the bottom plastic latches is easy with a plastic card, I’ve opened my X240 several times, never left any opening marks :)

Yeah, this is the one of the big problems with PHP, and Apache mod_php specifically. You can implement various mitigations (drop an .htaccess into the uploads directory that turns off any script execution?) but the fact that you have to is kinda ridiculous. Pretty much all other web development environments are not based around just running scripts from the same directories where static files are. Heck, Apache’s CGI implementation was better, it only ran code from the /cgi-bin/ subdirectory!

Just did my first #twitter 'like' from my own website! The future is here, and it is *fantastic*. #indieweb

Congratulations! :)

Released last week? Oh. I guess I’ve been using the “unreleased” version. Now it has edit/delete/undelete functionality! That’s very nice.

App.net is closing down in March. Now listed on site-deaths. Of course, this won’t happen to other platforms like Medium.

I was a big app.net fan back in the day… made apps even…

Yeah, the “soldered SSD” thing is extremely ridiculous. Like, they’re doing everything to make the laptops thinner, even the “Pro” line. Adding M.2 and SODIMM slots wouldn’t even add that much thickness! And M.2 allows the same performance (NVMe) as soldering the SSD.

By the way, Apple trackpads aren’t that special (until 3d touch, at least). They’re literally just Synaptics, same as in a lot of laptops.

I think some people didn’t like how Elementary is asking for money (pay what you want type thing) on the download page for some reason…

Honestly, I recommend not being tied to a particular OS and just, like, using all of them. I have Windows on my desktop, FreeBSD on my laptop, RPi and servers, Arch Linux in a VM… no (actively used) Macs anymore though :D

Are there really people using it?

Yeah. Though many more people use Mastodon, which supports the same OStatus protocol, but is a completely different project. Mastodon has microformats2 now, because of me :) Though not webmention. Not yet, at least :D
