Why do random people feel inclined to answer “I don’t know” to questions posted on product pages, i.e. on Amazon? Someone asks “does this xxx?” and invariably someone will answer that they don’t know. Do they believe the question was asked of them directly?! So weird.

I can't find an example now, but Amazon sends an email something along the lines of "someone has asked you a question about a product you've purchased" and it really does sound like the question was asked to you directly!

Sorry to anyone who's just received a tonne of webmentions from me - I'm tweaking the way the sending works so there are a few new places you may see them come from

I've been seeing them come from your tag pages, which is an interesting idea. I'm going to have to figure out how to filter those out tho.

How are the new OAuth2 things going to impact IndieAuth if at all?

The biggest change is that really every IndieAuth server and client should support PKCE. A few of them do already. I'll make a list of other recommendations as well.

They are here! https://oauth.net/events/2019-11-ietf106/minutes.php Tho I suppose I should email that to the list as well.

I meant more like have the 4 poles vertical as a base and then hook up a clamp system to include like a square horizontal frame.

ooh then I don't see why not! Now I wonder if I have enough space to pull that off here... my main limiting factor has always been how much floor space tripods and stands take up.

Actually could I get 4 of the varipoles and create like a square shaped rigging system that would basically eliminate the need for any stands in my space?

Does anyone do this?

I suspect the tension rod isn't rated for perpendicular loads. But if I'm wrong, I would be thrilled, because I've been looking for a way to get a horizontal rod in this apartment that doesn't require drilling massive holes in the ceiling.

Great product. Unfortunately, this is currently unavailable. Let me know if you know of an online seller that has ATEM mini in stock. Thanks for sharing!

Looks like @DVEStore has them! https://www.dvestore.com/blackmagic-design-atem-mini/

This is misleading. The OAuth WG did not yet agree to do a 2.1 revision, and there's not yet a TxAuth working group. I want both of those things but it's not reality quite yet.

I can get it changed to say "a potential 2.1". What's the right term for the TX Auth group right now then? https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/txauth/about/

You do mean future hardware, right?

Of course! If they can pack the scaling hardware into the cheapest model it seems like a no brainer to add it to all future higher end models too.

Ok, now I know why I got this. It’s got a damn scaler built in. I’m feeding it a G9 @ 1080p30, a GH5 @ 1080p24 and an iPad @ 1080p60 right now and it’s switching between them seamlessly. My $4,000 ATEM doesn’t do that. Hot damn.

It's so good!

I'm hoping this means the updates to the rest of the ATEM line also get scalers on every input!

@aaron I recently added likes to my indieblog platform Pine.blog. It looks like the likes don't show the profile pics right on your site. Is there something amiss with my pages? Everything looks right to me when I parse my own site with mf2py.

Try u-photo instead of p-photo. Using the p- prefix is telling the parser to get the text value of the element rather than the src attribute.

According to @aaronpk, it was first called CORS in 2009, but wasn't a W3C final spec until 2014. The first draft of OAuth 2 was in 2010.

https://caniuse.com/#feat=cors says the only browser that fully supported CORS in 2010 was @firefox. @googlechrome had partial support. #oauth2

👏 way to preempt the "well actually" tweets 😂

@aaronpk where can I find the physical book version of OAuth2 Servers published by Okta? And what's different about it vs. your OAuth2 Simplified book?

That's the same book! You can find it on amazon or https://oauth2simplified.com

@aaronpk I’ll have to give them a look!

I'm such a huge fan of the eSIM thing! It's so nice landing from an international flight and already having data service. I used to race to find the nearest SIM store and buy data as soon as I got thru immigration.

If you have a new enough phone (e.g. iPhone X+) to enjoy eSIM, I really recommend Truphone. It’s great to have the freedom to easily purchase data plans abroad, but also in the US when you’re getting close to your limit but want to get a cheaper boost.

I haven't even heard of that one, I've been using GigSky. It's so nice while I'm traveling!

Good question! It does work if you change it to https. Also I think their checkout process forces you to https.
