Yay: discovering that @okta has a great article for adding OIDC authentication via nginx auth_request (https://developer.okta.com/blog/2018/08/28/nginx-auth-request)

Boo: It relies on an early-access feature that requires you to reach out to your account rep to enable. #srelife

Can you clarify which early-access feature that is? I didn't think this required anything special, I tested it with my developer account that has no special privileges.

Specifically Overland. Will probably write my own server component in Python, but the iOS side being done is handy.

Awesome. I'll gladly link to your Python server component from Overland's page if you publish the source code somewhere!

@aaronpk would have some thoughts on this

Totally depends on the other constraints. Wifi location is probably the best for general purpose location everywhere. Bluetooth/NFC can get you super accuracy but of course requires installation at the venue.

why do you use an offline calendar and not some sort of CalDAV-enabled thing?

This thing is three feet wide, and is the only way to see the whole year at a glance. There isn't any software that can do that as effectively.

I do also use a calendar on the computer, but for a different kind of planning.

Today is Monday, January 7th. If I said "Hey, let's meet next Thursday!"

Which do you think I mean?

Option 3: don't say that

worth it! I've had this running at home for over a year, bonus that it also blocks stuff on your phone and other devices on your wifi!

You using the WebKit web payment api stuff for Apple Pay ? I was looking at it the other day as it also offers google wallet in the same code for chrome users.

Keep in mind all it does is collect the credit card info, you still need an actual payment gateway to do something with the card.

Today is the first day @oktadev's new San Francisco HQ is open! I'll be at the new office all day taking pics and hanging out. Prepare for a lot of silly tweets :D I'm excited.

ooo can't wait to come down and see it soon!

HMU with your #photography workflow. How do you keep your photos straight, especially over a time-span of decades?

I'm particularly interested in how #indieweb folks approach this.

Right now most of my old photos are in Flickr 😭

I'm working on a new solution where I just store stuff on hard disks so it's easier to back up. I want to find a good organizational layer on top to add tags but haven't found anything I like yet.

This was heavily inspired by @aaronpk's tip jar. Someone I have looked up to for a long time through all his projects
https://aaronparecki.com/tip/

Very nice! Yours looks great! I might have to make some UI improvements to mine based on your design :-)

@aaronpk just seen your website. While the moving avatar is hilarious and pretty cool... does that seriously mean any website can access the gyroscope without requesting permission?

Thanks! I didn't really think of it like that, but it's a JavaScript API to access the orientation of the device. https://caniuse.com/deviceorientation

But how often does it record points?

iOS doesn't guarantee delivery of location info at any time interval, those buttons on the settings screen expose all the controls iOS gives. In practice, at highest resolution, it collects up to one per second if you're moving, but if you aren't moving it slows down.

My voicemail greeting used to say "Hi, this is Gretchen, I don't check voicemail so please text me instead." The only reason it doesn't anymore is I switched providers and haven't even set up my voicemail anymore.

omg this is me

Or start making cameras with flash storage and wireless sync?

nah, my cameras already have wifi sync but there's no way I'm going to transfer a 14gb video file wirelessly

@aaronpk haha! while attempting to find this link on your website, i noticed your gyro controlled profile pic!

haha yes! That was a fun thing I did at IndieWebCamp Berlin! Blatantly copied from https://seblog.nl who found the code somewhere.

@aaronpk this was a fun video! But how did you not gas yourself with all those habaneros? I cook with them sometime but often end up coughing from fumes or burning on my skin just using one!?

Definitely had the windows open and the fan running the whole time. But I guess I also have a high tolerance? I eat habaneros for breakfast every morning 😄

Love it! Also would still like to know how many hours. As a fellow premiere user it’s always a curiosity. 😁

4 hours shooting, 9 hours editing. Some of the editing time was definitely watching tutorials on youtube.

I got them years ago from a local artist! Looks like he is selling them on Etsy now! https://www.etsy.com/shop/pixelparty

@aaronpk Why does indiewebcat not use her Micro.blog account? 😿 (Or does @indiewebcat.com only exist here as a consequence of some interaction with Manton’s new-ish IndieWeb-friendly usernames support?)

I forgot about that! Actually @Manton made that for testing and I didn't even know about it! I should talk to him about taking over the account so I can properly set it up!
