  @aaronpk Hey Aaron, do you know if PGP is working correctly for Webmentions sign-in? I get a very vague "There was a problem!" no matter how I choose to sign the challenge. I saw other reports on GitHub as well. https://github.com/aaronpk/indielogin.com/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+pgp
  

  It should be working, but it's kind of picky about the format. Did you try all the variations listed here? https://github.com/aaronpk/indielogin.com/issues/66

• WTF OAuth https://twitter.com/wtf_oauth

  OAuth is the name of a very popular thing on the internet that lets people connect their Facebook accounts to apps. It made a lot of money for the people who invented it.

  Yep, I tried with `--clearsign` as well as `--sign --armor` and both game me a "There was a problem!" message. Tried doing it from both Mac and Windows just in case there was some funny business happening. Do you have more information on the expectations of the key?
  

  i'm not totally sure, but this is the code it uses to verify in case you want to try to track it down https://github.com/aaronpk/indielogin.com/blob/main/pgp/app.rb

  I skimmed over the docs for GPME:Crypto and didn't see any specific information regarding key expectations. I don't know Ruby. Any way you could have the application spit out more information than "There was a problem!"? Would make it easier to figure out what is failing exactly.
  

  Yeah I should make it bubble up the error better. I just checked the logs and it looks like your key.txt URL is returning 404

  Habanero Hot Sauce

  
  

  Made about 100oz of hot sauce tonight! Not properly canned, just poured into jars.

  @aaronpk do you boil the glasses in water so that they're sterile after closing them up?
  

  Yeah when I'm properly canning them I'll do that, when I am planning on keeping them around more than 6 months. It's already full of acid and vinegar so it keeps a long time in the fridge even when not sealed and sterilized properly. We go through hot sauce extremely quickly since it's a key component of breakfast every day.

• Web3 is not Decentralisation — it’s a Ploy to put Crypto Bros in Charge | by Ross Stalker | Nov, 2021 | Medium (medium.com)

  "Imagine if someone were to suggest that all web infrastructure should share the same database. That would rightly be seen as an absurd idea — but that’s what Web3 advocates are essentially suggesting. A blockchain is a distributed append-only database, spread across multiple nodes, but it is still one single database. In the name of decentralisation, Web3 advocates in fact seek to create a new form of centralisation around the blockchain."
