What’s the desktop computer life like? I’m having second thoughts on the Mac mini. I’ve been a laptop only user for the last decade.

I mean my main reason for not having a desktop computer for the last 10 years has been that I'm always on planes. But that's clearly not the case anymore, so it's tempting.

I know bcrypt/hash+salt on server for storage has been best practice for ages. Or has client/browser side hashing before sending to a server been wide spread?

It's part of the old-school HTTP Digest Auth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digest_access_authentication It just doesn't really solve things the way you'd expect.

Has anyone tried a password auth system that standardizes on some front-end hashing strategy, so that the API never sees/touches the plain text version of the password?

It's one of the oldest tricks in the books 🙃

This just seems to be buying a domain and hosting your own site instead of, for example, posting content on Medium or some other site. Am I missing something?

yes that, plus using your website as a home for other kinds of online content as well! This tweet for example is actually first posted on my website, and the Twitter version is just a copy of it https://indieweb.org/POSSE

Excellent thanks. What would be the 'next step'? If we could get social networks to have the tweets/comments ONLY be a link to your website what does that buy us? I appreciate the solution you have but it's about working within the current siloed approach

If you're talking about what existing silos can do to play better with the open web, there's no reason they can't also support webmentions natively

There are at least two social networks that use webmentions natively: https://micro.blog and https://pine.blog

As for the current siloed approach, that's exactly what we're doing right now, many of us with https://brid.gy

#indieweb folks. there are a ton of self hosted commenting systems. But what about a "universal comment" system? Where all of my comments, on any site I use, are just links back to my server. I own/host all of my comments. I'm assuming this has been discussed?

This sounds like what Webmention enables. This tweet for example is actually a copy of my reply to you that I've posted to my website. It works directly from site to site too of course.

What’s a good USB-C that has pass through power, extra ports, and media card slots?

The CalDigit TB3 is great https://geni.us/hucidG but it's Thunderbolt+DisplayPort, not USB-C+HDMI.

This Anker one is USB-C, https://geni.us/SHPKeJ1 but the HDMI is flaky with my 16" Macbook Pro.

Also images on the site should load much faster.

Techie details: I've added an image proxy, funneled images through it, and stood up Cloudflare in front of that. Should speed things up nicely without breaking my servers.

oh no, looks like you're using the same imageproxy as my reader, and it has a bug where it can't accept its own URLs 😆

What program/app do you use to write scripts for your YouTube videos?

I've used basic text programs (Windows notepad, etc. etc.), but just curious if there is an option that offers more benefits, and what those are.

Google Docs, and I use the commenting feature to make little sidebar notes pointing out b-roll I need to shoot or other things

Going LIVE tonight! Finally trying out this new time… let's see what other time zones we hit! Join me at 10pm Pacific (6am GMT) and let's talk cameras, streaming, editing, whatever you like… possible surprise guest, too! https://jal.bz/2K8IU3T

hmm 10pm with a surprise guest... does that mean we might see a certain someone who is a fan of lighting on the stream? 🤔

btw your JSON Feed is missing the URL property which makes it really hard to reply to things when I'm following you in micro.blog. I just switched to following your microformats feed though and that one looks great.

Correct. I should have clarified. When I say podcast, I mean over RSS.

Sadly I think most people don't, which is how Spotify is getting away with centralizing the podcast industry.

True true. I meant outside of YouTube over RSS, like podcasts are today.

ah if you're talking about syndication format rather than content format, I understand the question now :-)

Quick poll: Do you think video podcasts could come back?

I didn't realized they were gone? There's a bunch on YouTube right now
