Kinda hoping the lcd fits inside the DS lite so I can reuse the touch interface

Kid asked if we could build a phone so I ordered a dev kit and lcd then we're going to scavange the rest of the parts from a Gameboy and ds lite then use a USB numpad with it.

Neat things are coming to @twinkl.social soon 👀

Sex workers' rights are under attack across Europe and Central Asia. 🇸🇪 In 2025, despite receiving overwhelming opposition,, Sweden criminalised the clients of online sex work (e.g. OnlyFans). Just as we feared, this dangerous precedent started a new wave of attacks on sex workers' rights.

on october 3rd, leaflet asked me what day it was

Civilian rule, self determination & reckoning with our histories of ethnic supremacy, internalized anti-Blackness & the afterlife of colonialism are the only way we can honor the martyrs, the generations who suffered under military rule & the revolutionaries of the last 100 years.

Here's the first update on the FedCM grant that I've been working on, which admittedly is quite behind schedule due to my chronic illness. Hoping to get more out quicker in the future.

I think one of the most valuable things that bsky can do for the atmosphere is leverage its position as the only app with a large audience and heavily promote "high quality" ATProto apps in-app. The live indicator and profile buttons are cool, but it's really limited and discovery is spontaneous.

what do yall think are the most impactful things we could do in the Bluesky app to support atproto builders?

Wasn't expecting that reference

That doc is... horrifying

My hope is that this will tremendously clean up a small but vocally abusive subset of users in my interactions, and then I'll be able to genuinely communicate with other folks who want to have real conversations about Trust and Safety. docs.google.com/spreadsheets... 4/4

W Social has got the boomer juice

Laurens@laurenshof.online · 2d ago

got frustrated this morning with nextcloud, spend my afternoon fighting the UI of Home Assistant (and losing), and thought 'is it too cynical to say that europeans should not do design', only to log in on mu.social and see in my 'fu' feed (official name) that W-social calls their posts "Weets"

Is this how we get Jay to call them skeets

Anuj Ahooja@quillmatiq.com · 3d ago

til w calls posts weets lol

Happy October! 🖤🍁💀🎃

Atproto Vienna@atproto.wien · 3d ago

Hey open social friends, come join us next week for our third Vienna meetup on atproto and federated open social web topics. RSVP has been updated with our proposed agenda. See you then! 🦦

I guess it's good that micron gave everyone raises this quarter instead of just pocketing the money?

the bsky team is working on various ideas for creating smaller social spaces in the app. which use case is most interesting to you? 1. posting into "topics" that organize public posts 2. posting into "communities" or "groups" that can be public or private 3. posting directly to your followers only

Happy 1 year @pds.dad "Bro can you help us with this weird error in our migrater" anniversary

I regret to inform everyone she dropped it and now the volume knob is wonky and mechanism is damaged.

Went for the CPU upgrade framework offered but delayed order by another month to November. Chat please F 🥲

Okay so I've built a new Atlas, this time it lets you explore the conversations on Bluesky over the past 7 days graphically. It should update every ~6 hours and help you navigate the information environment that exists on here. I've learned a LOT about what people do here today... atlas.jazco.dev

A living map of what Bluesky is talking about: the past week's conversations, grouped into topics and regions and rebuilt every six hours.
