@aaronpk I've seen that, but haven't yet fully looked at it.. it always looked so... financial related?
Yeah that is an artifact of its origins, but they took "Financial" out of the name and now it's just "FAPI". Think of it as just a high-security profile, one which would likely be useful for financial related industries and others with similar concerns. -

@aaronpk that's perhaps fair, though I think OIDC smooths out a lot of OAuth 2.0's rough edges
If you want to see a profile that *really* smoothes out the rough edges, check out the OpenID FAPI profile. The whole goal of that is high security and interoperability. OpenID core is still pretty loose. -

I started a FEP to define an #OAuth 2.0 profile for the #ActivityPub API (“c2s”):
https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/pulls/162
I’d appreciate any feedback or support. I’ve begun implementing this profile, and I think it’s testing out pretty well.
I see the proposal has just been merged and now links out to a socialhub link? Where is the best place to continue discussing this? I have ... a lot of feedback as you might imagine.

@evan no, I mean, I don't see why it'd make sense to define a custom profile of OAuth 2.0 when OIDC exists and we could just use it?
What does defining a custom profile really give us? Our authentication needs can't be that unique, can they?
there is no "just use" OIDC, it would still require defining a profile. Plus I don't think most ActivityPub implementations benefit from most of the features OIDC brings. -

@evan so currently all the different fediverse services that implement OAuth implement different bits of specs & don't support discovery of authorization server metadata; additionally, they rarely support PKCE. Dynamic Client Registration is supported, but OIDC Federation would likely be better.
The scopes you define look like they could conflict with existing implementations, and are also not discoverable by the client.
so, a few things. Despite "federation" in the name, OIDC Federation is really not the right thing for this. It's more for a closed ecosystem of independent servers, but is explicitly not made to be open for anyone to join a federation. That's why there are trust anchors and things.
If current implementations don't support PKCE, they really should, because it's only a matter of time before someone takes advantage of the hole that not doing PKCE leaves open for public clients. -

@aaronpk So you don’t need Spacial Video? How else will you justify a Vision Pro purchase?
Oh gosh. I think I'm going to sit out this first generation of the goggles. I definitely don't *need* them, and I like to let things shake out a bit before jumping in -

@aaronpk sounds expensive 😬
Do the new ones do any sort of energy reporting? What home automation platform have you landed on!
yes, quite expensive. I don't think they have energy monitoring on them, but I'm installing a monitoring system at the circuit breaker panel so I will get usage on each circuit individually!
I've been all in on Home Assistant for the last 5 years or so! -

@aaronpk do you have a plan for light/wall switches yet? If I were building a house I think something like a Shelly relay would be my default go to to connect my lights. Could be a few switches where I’d use a special switch but I really like our Shelly’s. Cost effective too, especially multigang switches.
That's cool, I hadn't heard of that before, I'll have to try it out.
Pretty sure I'm going with Lutron switches everywhere tho! -

@aaronpk I can only think of a pneumatic tube system, although it's unlikely to be a last minute addition.
we did briefly talk about doing that 😅
more realistically we did talk about an in-house vacuum system but decided against it in the end -
haha yes! good plan

@aaronpk A separate low-voltage DC net to power all those ESPs?
That was kind of the idea behind running the doubled up ethernet everywhere, I can always send 5V or PoE over that if I need to. -
absolutely on the list! It's going to be a full day project, I want to make sure I have some organization system for all the photos.

@aaronpk pretty much the wires for the contact sensors (doors, windows), the fire alarm wiring and the wires from the alarm box to the horn and the touchscreen panels themselves
this is making me realize I have absolutely no idea what these kinds of modern security systems look like -
bahaha yes good plan

@aaronpk Some sort of metallic object at a consistent height that you’ll remember for locating studs. It could be something as simple as a nail at doorknob height on all of them. Extra points if you can figure out some sort of way to note where your wires and pipes are, like maybe a magnet flipped so that it repels when you use a stud finding magnet. If I could make any upgrade to the walls of my house, that would be it by a mile.
Interesting, I've always used a stud finder for finding the wood which works pretty well. I'm definitely worried about finding the pipes later, but I'm going to spend a full day photographing and cataloguing each wall before they get closed up. -

@aaronpk if you're going to have a wired security system, having the security company installer come and do that before the walls closed up would be good.
I don't really know what goes into a security system these days, I'm doing a lot of it DIY. I have outdoor cameras already, and electronic locks for the doors. Also wires for door contact sensors. -

@aaronpk yes - we added them when we renovated the bathroom and it's great. Also a power outlet by the toilet for a heated toilet seat, and another inside of the bathroom cabinet for charging razors (so they don't have to be out on the countertop all of the time).
Nice! and yup got outlets in those spots already! -

@aaronpk also: speaker wire for wherever you will want speakers. We put ceiling mounted speakers above the sink in our master bathroom and they get used daily.
ooh bathroom is not something I had considered. We do have speakers in the living room, kitchen, and rooftop patio tho! -

@aaronpk if your internets will be delivered by your cable tv provider, make sure you have a path for that cable... otherwise the cable company will just butcher your house when they do their install
I hope to never have internet delivered from the cable provider 😅 and have no plans to get cable service, BUT... the electrician insisted on running coax everywhere anyway, so now my plan is to create my own in-house cable TV network
