🔴 Live Q&A! It's so hot in Portland that my studio gear is going to melt

The Pacific Northwest is in the middle of a heat wave, and I don't have air conditioning in my studio! It's going to be too hot to stream from my normal location, so come join the stream and see what sort of rig I come up with for streaming from somewhere else!

In Sacramento, we call that “July.”

That's why I don't live in Sacramento! 🥵

Managed to keep the house to "just" 85°F today, but the next two days are gonna be interesting with the warm nights and no AC.

oh gosh! even with AC we're at 79 here, cause it's one of the indoor floor AC units which are not the best. what I'm really worried about is the power going out though.

Looks like the temperature reached the peak today at 5pm, my sensor outside in the shade recorded 104.7°F (40°C). So far the AC is holding up, but I'm a bit worried that the *low* tonight is expected to be 80°!

Putting the Pacific Northwest heatwave in perspective—

Portland, Oregon will be hotter than about 99.8% of Earth as it smashes its all-time temp record on Sunday 🔥

The only places (⚫) expected to be hotter: Africa's Sahara Desert, Persian Gulf, California's deserts 🤯

It’s 101 degrees Fahrenheit here at the office and PDX has joined in the triple digit temperature club as it is 100 degrees Fahrenheit at the ASOS. #orwx #wawx #pdxtst #HEATWAVE

After today's IndieWebCamp popup session, I built a way to create unlisted posts on my site that require a secret key in the URL in order to view.

Since all my URLs are more or less sequential, I needed a way to be able to add something to the URL that is unguessable. It was a relatively easy thing to add!

Try viewing this post without the secret string at the end to see the feature in action: https://aaronparecki.com/2021/06/26/9/MXJEJKW

I want to share how the scammers almost got into my bank account, because I think as tech savvy people, sometimes we forget we are still vulnerable, and it's always good to have a reminder of what to watch out for.

I'd usually call it just a "website". Static sites I'd call "static site", and most SPAs I'd call "shitty garbage" 😅

Haha I like the idea but I’d need a lot more of them :-) No, replacing all the cameras I use for my main studio setup. No longer a mix; consistent look, all network controllable, all have synchro scan shutter angle… it’s dreamy.

People ask me how to pronounce GNAP, and I just tell them it's pronounced "gnap", kinda like GIF is pronounced "gif".

New #indieweb libraries: taproot/micropub-adapter and taproot/indieauth!

Finally put the finishing touches on these two closely-related libraries, which make it quick and easy to add Micropub and IndieAuth support to any PHP app which uses PSR-7.

Feedback appreciated, either as replies, GH issues, or at indieweb.org/discuss

It’s a drive discontinued 6 years ago, and users expect the cloud-based infrastructure to still work? I think it’s 6 years past the time to use it as anything but a dumb usb drive …

The hardware "not working" is very different from the hardware still having an active connection to the cloud that can be exploited to wipe the drive. If it "didn't work" I'd expect it to be effectively offline.
