Yes and no, I know that I myself at least wouldn’t be happy to have the IndieWeb referenced as a “fediverse”, but then again, I’m a bit burnt after I implemented OStatus for Flattr back in the days only to see the very downside of a federated approach when it comes to longevity…

I've implemented ActivityPub directly into my website, so my website is its own ActivityPub instance in the Fediverse. So there's definitely some overlap and grey areas between the two, but yeah generally Fediverse refers to the ActivityPub model of many ppl on one instance.

Fully agree with this point. There is so much prior art about decentralization being ignored. But most of the fediverse/indieweb folks I see have not engaged with decentralization fans to say "we've got stuff that's better/cheaper/already works".

oh we've tried, but then the glowing eyeballs come out yelling and screaming and it just isn't a productive discussion for anyone

There definitely are others - I think ABQ and ATL come to mind where I’ve seen locals refer to the area/city by that same code.

Chloe’s right about SFO though :)

Oh yea I think I've heard that about ATL before, but didn't know about ABQ!

I think I've said "SF" a grand total of like 4 times, and I 100% agree that if someone said "SFO" I would in no way assume they mean the city

SFO is the airport code, not the city. If you tell me you're visiting SFO, I assume you're just having a layover.

Interestingly we do actually refer to the city of Portland by our airport code PDX but I realize we are an exception here 🤷‍♂️

Unpopular opinion: don't listen to what other people say is the best editing style for your videos, listen to your gut. Find an editing style that captures your most authentic self, not a style that "works on youtube", bc if it doesn't match with your vibe, it's not gonna work.

Love it! 👏

I've long wanted a tool to find friends who are in the same city as me

the convention of updating your Twitter bio is a nice start but easy to miss

so I mocked up a little app for pulling that data into a map. would anyone else use this if I built it? feedback welcome!

I miss Dopplr! I've been wanting something that could replace it for years, do it!

Successfully did not crash my drone on my first drone flight and first drone flight in -6°F/-21°C 😇

My phone battery gave up in the cold before the drone battery died.

Not gonna claim this photo is going to win any awards, but I'm still considering this a success.

Also this was at 9:30am which is an hour before sunrise which was definitely not the best light for photos

@aaronpk Whoa! 🤩 Is that your bedroom, or a hotel room? If it’s a hotel, it’s the most impressively designed one I’ve ever seen.

It's the hotel in the old train station in Helsinki!

Put water in kettle. Put tea bag in cup. Poured kettle into tea cup. Let it steep. First sip was cold.

Apparently I never actually put the kettle on.

Good thing it’s Friday.

I can't tell you how many times I've poured cold water from the kettle into my espresso and taken a very sad first sip

I’ve seen a lot like BH sells them but I want something as thin as the sd card holder that surrounds like when you get a SIM card.

That'd be cool, but I don't see how it would snap into the holder and also be removable. This one only adds about 1mm the thickness, and I could probably shave off another 0.2mm if I really wanted to.

one day I will make my EmergSD - which is an SD card in a wallet credit card sized holder. just leave it in your wallet.

Like this? I designed this earlier this year 🙃

@aaronpk my habenero (and cayenne and Thai chili and scotch bonnets with pineapple) are currently fermenting. Hot sauce soon though! Yours looks good, might have to try some mustard in it.

Sounds delicious! Mine is a bit of a shortcut, no fermentation needed! I was originally going for something close to Secret Aardvark but it's changed a bit from that over the years.
