    My AirBnB host took my profile pic and added it to the apartment’s facial recognition system without my consent. Walk up, camera scans my face, doors unlock. Not sure if I’m supposed to be outraged and “call someone out” for this or chuffed such a janky hack worked.

    Microsub specification says that notifications channel should get handled separately from others (that’s why it has a known UID and is the first). Cool feature of Java (and Kotlin) that allows me to do it: I set my Notifications fragment (that is separate from feeds) to a subclass of MicrosubChannelFragment that sets “uid” to notifications. This prevents duplication of code, makes my channels pretty and saves effort!

    not a big fan of Mastodon. imo if a decentralized digital media app's first step is "sign up on this stranger's server" it's not good enough, and over time will probably look like email at best.

    It is definitely very Titanic deck chairs-y but I've been working a bunch of indieweb migrations and now my personal sites finally have proper TLS encryption (which were a pain to set up at my previous host, yes I know about LetsEncrypt) and I'm lowkey delighted about it

    In 2020, I'm opening a new zero proof bar in Portland, beginning with a pop-up residency (but hopefully opening a permanent location before too long!) If you want to come check it out, you can now sign up to be notified when we open. https://suckerpunchpdx.com/

    Lots of little bits of smartness/gee-whiz features.

    Here's one example: lock screen always shows what music is currently playing around you. You can pull up this history and see all the music that was playing around you for any day.

    I have always felt that IndieWeb is more a culture of mutual aid than shipping tools. We do release tools, but the focus seems to be more on teaching one to fish than giving a complete out of the box replacement for social media.

    Dear @AmericanAir,

    After arriving back to LA from Indonesia, I was $275 EQDs under (yet 25K miles over) from maintaining status. You asked me to pay $1875 (?!) to keep status, so instead I booked a $400 rt ticket to Mexico for 24 hrs. Here’s how my fucking night went...

    Just published two minimal packages to help building micropub applications!

    The first one is called micropub-parser and it's basically a port from @aaronpk's pk3-micropub package to JavaScript.

    The second one is a small IndieAuth middleware that can be easily plugged into an Express.js app!
