Boxes of crap go on sale in three hours. I will be asleep. When I wake up, I have to go buy all your crap.

@obra oh no, I misread your original post and thought you meant 1pm Pacific time! Are they really all sold out now?

Oh no! Hey Arron, you may need to reinstall the application. For instructions and further troubleshooting, please submit a... 1/2

@dropboxsupport Thanks! I reinstalled and it works again. This isn't related to the OSX provisioning profile expiring is it?

This is one of the very few things which provoke me to switch from Firefox to Chrome. It looks like some virus or something which you get on Windows all the time. But I'm on Linux and don't expect something like this. According to the Internet this is legit Mozilla spam.

oof that's bad. Especially since it appears inside the content pane, since it could very well be a malicious site putting that banner there. If it appeared outside the content pane then at least you could be sure it was from the browser itself.

@aaronpk thanks! Drone and trompette (buzzing) sound are acoustic, the melody is just the synth. Magnets in the keys + hall effect sensors on a board underneath, a magnetic rotary encoder on the shaft controlling noteon/off and expression, and an arduino inside the keybox putting it all together and sending MIDI signal out. The whole thing is built into the instrument, which also works great acoustic or amplified. There are a lot of improvements to make, but I think this is a good start!

That's amazing! I'm super impressed.

MIDI-enabled hurdy gurdy playing NI Reaktor… a preview of a prototype, more of this to come in the future ;)

What!! This is amazing! Do the keys send midi messages? What else is acting as midi input?

.@dudeluna @BikeIndex there's a chunk of spectrum (close to 900mhz) unlicensed that this uses. Didn't get that granular in article :)

@stolenbikereg @bikeindex I was looking for this info but didn't see it on their site. How did you find out the frequency? Great review!

Day 32: new repost policy

This seems like a reasonable approach for reposting articles. I haven't actually found myself wanting to repost whole articles yet. I usually either bookmark them and include a blockquote from them, or post a short sentence from the article and link to it. You should add your examples here! https://indieweb.org/repost

spec in flagship OSS projects something that you ever do? Asking for a friend

@johnonolan As far as W3C, ideally everything in a spec has already been implemented by at least 2 ppl before it becomes part of the spec. Me personally, I've written a handful of libraries and OSS projects that use these specs, always for tools I use myself.

Removing A to avoid spamming him. I hadn’t heard of Vouch before. That’s actually very compelling!

@johnonolan Vouch is much less widely implemented at the moment, but I'm excited to see it grow. Also excited for https://indieweb.org/private-webmention

are there any mainstream uses of it in the wild?

@johnonolan @stefanbc https://withknown.com has built-in support, and http://micro.blog likely will as well. Lots of other small sites too

@stefanbc Kind of. Every comment was first posted on someone else's blog, then my site is notified and parses the comment from there.

US Indiewebbers - My partner and I are three weeks away from a big adventure travelling down the west coast by train. We are staying in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, LA, Yosemite and Las Vegas. I was wondering if you have any recommendations for good bars, restaurants, galleries, sights, sounds? 2017-02-24T09:30:44+00:00 holiday america indieweb
