@aaronpk Hey, sorry, me again. I just can't figure this out and hope you can help. I'm trying to use OwnYourGram with my site (Jekyll + Github pages + Micropub endpoint). But the post gets pulled in like this, so it doesn't show the photo. Are you aware of anyone who got this to work? It needs to add a reference to the photo in the post itself.

I’m starting to use more hybrid app development tools, namely NativeScript. They’re the closest we get to PWAs being on mobile devices since Apple’s really against making them a thing in their garden. Google’s reasoning is to probably get one code base to monitor everything. For developers, it’s definitely a lot easier to just write one code base for mobile environments.

Depending on how this flies, I might consider working on a Micropub application (tailored for Koype, of course). Should be fun!

Have a fun conference. Looking forward to HWC tomorrow and your OAuth workshop Thursday! Got plans for this evening?

@aaronpk that's very cool, actually. And to be clear, I am a fan and count myself as a friend of @adactio, so my intention here was not to attack, but to prod.

@aaronpk I do - but then why not federate here as well?

Yes I'm looking at you @adactio.

@aaronpk oh damn I didnt see you were in town. I live here too bad. what were you here for?

I'm thinking about getting the Hue smart bulbs for my bedroom because it seems like it would help to be able to dim and brighten the lights around bed time and waking. Anyone using them or other smart bulbs? Thoughts?

I should work on properly ingesting Twitter links so I can fully own my likes, reshares and replies on that site. For now, I need to look into a “silo-based translator” to the IndieWeb.

@ablaze @aaronpk Ah ok, that makes sense. I did some research on it couple of years back, and FAA always deferred to individual airlines to make the call on that. The airline has the authority to disallow calls, but it's not an FAA regulation. Some in-flight companies (like GoGo) explicitly forbids VoIP calls in their ToCs (at least used to) that you agree to when you join their network.

@ablaze @aaronpk Did you by any chance grab the pamphlet/page from her? I'm not aware of an actual VoIP ban by FAA, but flight attendants sometimes confuse it with regular cell calls. Although, many carriers block VoIP calls via their in-flight WiFi, due to noise complaints, etc, as well as bandwidth concerns. Some technologies work around that, but if VoIP is "blocked" (as far as they're concerned) and you're on a call, you're more likely to be mistaken for doing a cell call.

@aaronpk Yes, VOIP calls. I actually ignored her at first, and she came back shaking with rage and waving a printed FAA page in her hand and told me she would tell the captain I was ignoring her instructions if I didn't stop. I stopped.
