In-reply-to » Anyone interested in starting up the monthly social calls we used to have? 👋

@prologic@twtxt.net built it (as in banner reminder, etc.) and I will come! Joke side, I will join for 30-45 minutes each month, sure! No main topic, no pre-conceived themes, just folks getting together to chat and rant, or whatever. Count me in!

In-reply-to » Everything in the realm of “smartphones” is such an incomprehensible clusterfuck. I want to throw this thing out the window.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de he sure does! LOL. It is more like incomprehensible stuff that comes out. Sometimes I manage to get what he was trying to say, but more often than not I have no idea. 🤣

In-reply-to » I disabled the compression of logs on my edge, which I'm hoping will fix the "instability" I see every now and again where my edge network just "falls off the face of the earth". Some folks don't really appreciate / understand this, but Disk I/O can kill your application(s) no matter what. I/O Wait is a real thing.

Great! Write a post about it, and twelve into details, providing graphs, or stats on how disk “I/O can kill your application(s) no matter what”.

In-reply-to » 🤔 💭 🧐 What if, What if we built our own self-hosted / small-web / community-built/run Internet on top of the Internet using Wireguard as the underlying tech? What if we ran our own Root DNS servers? What if we set a zero tolerance policy on bots, spammers and other kind of abuse that should never have existed in the first place. Hmmmm

Intranets have been around since Jesus times (well, not quite 😂, but you get the idea). They are fun to play with, but that’s about it. I mean, the “fun” of the Internet comes from its variety.

In-reply-to » My open letter, to the European Commission digital markets act team:

@thecanine@twtxt.net I am not arguing you didn’t do the right thing™, and even if the impact is minimal, or nothing, you did what you thought was right (and I agree). I don’t agree with certain rules the EU wants to impose, not in this particular case. There are rotten potatoes everywhere, and I don’t get fooled by the EU often sacrosanct behaviour.

But who am I to say anything, right? Look at the grotesque clown utterly shit show we live with on this side!

In-reply-to » DCF77, our time signal radio station, is a great public service. I really love that. It’s just a signal that anybody can pick up, no subscription, no tracking, no nothing. Much like GPS/GNSS. 💚

@movq@www.uninformativ.de how do you set your clock to use a specific time signal radio station? I have one wall clock in my office, it works great, but no way to set that.
