And look at that... my reply from Mastodon appears here in Lemmy. Ain't the Fediverse grand?

I mean... the STAGE?!?

"Look at all my top secret documents! Pillage them! Then kill or imprison dozens of our assets for an encore!"

These are certainly possibilities! It's happened elsewhere in the Fediverse... but already we can export most of our data and migrate to a different instance. Getting these base features right is important before enhancing their functionality. Planning for the future is important too. So far I've been impressed by Lemmy, though it's not nearly as portable as Mastodon or Calckey or Pleroma etc. Part of that is that in Lemmy/kbin we don't follow other users... we subscribe to groups (subs/communities/magazines).

Still, with the nature of ActivityPub, it's inevitable that migration tools for Reddit-like federated apps will get built quick-like

You can use Pixelfed ... you can then follow yourself from elsewhere in the Fediverse. Or just use it to make links and post those.

Answer: Lift my lifetime permanent ban. Heheh

I jokingly commented "I hope it was full" in a thread about Ted Cruz (aka Zodiac Killer) getting beaned by a beer can during a parade (or sumpin).

That was the last straw for the mods! How dare I "Promote or advocate violence" LOL

Lots and lots at work...

But my only real side project right now is a scheduler and supervisor... "If cron and supervisord had a super-powered love child".

I'm very close to releasing v1 so I'm not gonna jinx it by revealing too much, but it's already in production use by two companies, one of which is enterprise-level, using it to process MASSIVE data somewhere in the entertainment industry... and yes, it's gonna be FOSS, with MIT license.

It emphasizes a declarative approach to reproducing clusters of orchestrated job-runners on low-cost cloud infrastructure. Makes it easy to scale and even map-reduce.

Includes 3 interfaces: CLI (for everything), API (for most things), and UI (for most things).

It's gonna be sick heheh. I'll be sure to come back here once you can pip install it.

Nope. I joined a couple big Mastodon instances, then started running a solo on DigitalOcean. It's a hobby. I'll probably give up the self-hosted and continue on a regular Calckey account.

Also played with Pixelfed, and before that all the way back to Matrix/Rocket... and pre-AP good ole diaspora*. Basically, anything but corporate social media. I just don't like it enough to deal with the bullshit.

I liked Reddit though, but haven't been on there for more than a year, now.

Lemmy seems pretty cool though. I'm interested in playing with the tech. Seems like a good way to take my Rust skills to the next level.

Don't tell me what to do! Heheheheh

Dammit!!! Beat me to it 🤣

YyyyyuuuuP. I've always called Denver, "Omaha with a view of the mountains".

Emacs 👋 🙂

Emacs zealot here ... can confirm we're like this ;)

For example:

Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS... I love how it combines tiling and stacking. Sure I could use workspaces instead of stacks, but with stacks... I can use both!

I've also used EXWM and am going to give it another whirl after I upgrade to emacs 28 with native comp

I've also followed myself on my Calckey account, but nothing is coming through. Seems like Mastodon is more Lemmy-friendly, and vice-versa!

Meta is releasing threads.net which will (eventually) join the Fediverse.

It's a much bigger topic of discussion over on #Mastodon, #Calckey, etc.

I've been arrested twice... both times misdemeanors with no jail time.

The most memorable part for me was being instructed to strip naked, then squat and spread my cheeks so they could see my asshole and make sure I didn't have a plastic baggy of cocaine or shiv turtle-heading.

I seriously doubt Trump had to suffer the same indignity, despite being charged with felonies.

I'll have to give it a try again. I played with it a while back, but I was happy with GNOME at the time. What underlying version of emacs are you using? native comp?

Yup. Emacs, here, but same thing. Never used PyCharm or any other Python-capable IDE, and I've been coding large python projects for the same company for almost a decade.
