Some folks think that defederation is a bad thing. OK.Here's a little experiment you can try at home.1) Stop using GMail, Hey, or whatever email service you're currently using.2) Set up your own mail server (there's instructions on the internet).3) When the instructions say to use a Remote Black List just ignore them.4) When the instructions say to validate domains, ignore those too.5) When the instructions say to set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC just let those slide.6) Try to send / receive email7) Also try to read your inbox. For added benefit turn on all notifications for received mail.Voila. Now you have an unfettered email experience.And this, class, is why defederation is useful.Please send your comments to the overworked TA in the back of the room.

@jeffjarvis Hey now, let's not besmirch the good name of beloved 80's icon Max Headroom over this.I think a better moniker is "overflowing", as in what happens when there's too much effluent to be contained.

@coin I am being vague on purpose. I have Stahe 4 rectal cancer. You can connect the dots.

Started up a Windows 7 laptop for JoDee to use for a day trip. Pissed both of us off in about five minutes. Time to toss a proper OS on it (Ubuntu 20.04. No, this is not permission to whine about my choices or to tell me yours. Today is not the day to test this.)

Anyone have any knowledge on why a Roku device wouldn't allow me to use the REST API for the remote. I tried this last night but for whatever reason it's giving me bad requests / forbidden. I'm using the Python Roku library and it seems that everyone other than me has figured this out.Assume:1) I know what I'm doing Python-wise2) That I am not throwing out my Roku to use whatever pet software you use to stream archive.org and Peertube.Thanks!#roku

@lauren They laughed at me when I bought this sign, but it went well with the "Employess must wash hands before returning to work" motif in the house.https://www.amazon.com/Notice-Cameras-Phone-SmartSign-Plastic/dp/B009B0WKSU

Misread "RE: Unlimited and Verified LinkedIn Leads" as "RE: Unlimited and Verified LinkedIn Lewds" and I'd like to thank Mastodon for making this moment possible.Also, LinkedIn Lewds would be the first practical use of LinkedIn yet.

Your periodic reminder that if the words "Identi.ca", "Laconica", "Friendica", "Pump.io", and "GNU Social" don't ring a bell then you might want to STFU about the history of the Fediverse.Happy to share knowledge, but will give you a stern look if you think the Fediverse started in 2022.

Fully expecting Reddit to pull a Freenode and lock any subreddit that goes dark.Reddit is dead. What you're seeing is the flailing of a corpse.

Google continues to impress in their lack of wanting to be stewards.If you don't have an exit plan for your Google services you may want to rethink that plan.https://9to5google.com/2023/06/15/google-domains-squarespace/(Note: Not the space to tell me how evil Google is or your history with Google. I think we're on the same page, Sparky.)
