Small updates on my new #SelfHosted #Snac2 adventures; I've enabled Bunny's CDN yesterday (I've been using them for all my DNS needs), adding some "edge rules" exclusions and whatnot to have it not potentially get in the way of dynamic functionality. This, combined with enabling Snac2's proxy_media option should help keep things a bit more snappy for me. I might still move things to my Seoul-hosted Vultr instance though, we'll see.

Beyond this I only ran into two issues so far;

I can't seem to send posts from #Tusky, which I found is a known issue (https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/issues/458 and https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/issues/5226). It seems like it's not technically the fault of Tusky, though it was introduced in a more recent version with some dependency version bump.

Fortunately they've gone ahead and applied a fix on their end to ensure better compatibility (https://codeberg.org/tusky/Tusky/commit/e591c67e00e70112c53c9009874f558db99369a9). Seems like I'll just have to wait a bit for v31 to be released (or switch to the beta, I suppose).

The other issue is with how #Tuba doesn't seem to refresh automatically anymore. Or its refresh interval is very long, not sure. I don't know if snac2 supports the "feed streaming" functionality Tuba speaks of, but whether I have that enabled or not, neither the home feed nor the notifications actually update until I manually refresh.

Maybe this is indicative of a misconfiguration on my end, I'll need to fiddle a bit more with it.

Other than that.. For the first ~day everything seems to be running just fine? Neat!

"The president and his wife, Melania, were later hosted by Charles at a lavish state banquet inside Windsor Castle on Wednesday alongside several top business executives including Apple’s Tim Cook, Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and OpenAI’s Sam Altman."

It's a state visit by and for oligarchs and their figurehead, and we're rolling out green and pleasant land for more datacentres? What is happening here?

"Isn't #nudity always sexual?" Someone DM'd me this.

Fair question. Let's be honest:
YES, sexual nudity exists. Obviously.

But here's the thing:
You were #naked when you were born - was that sexual?

You're naked when you shower - is that sexual?

You're naked when you change clothes - is that sexual?

🤔 So why do we assume ALL nudity = sex?

Because we've been programmed to see bodies as:
→ Objects for consumption
→ Sources of shame
→ Things that exist for others' pleasure

But your nude body is also:
✨ A vessel for healing
✨ Your natural state
✨ A participant in the ecosystem

Context matters.

#Sexual nudity happens between consenting adults in private for pleasure.

#Naturist nudity happens in community for wellness, freedom, and body acceptance.

Both deserve respect in their appropriate spaces.

The goal isn't to eliminate sexual nudity - it's to expand beyond ONLY seeing nudity through that lens.

What would shift if you could separate your naked body from sexual performance?

image shows a close-up of a fair woman''s upper body, focusing on the chest and arms. She is lying down, with their arms crossed over her chest, and herskin appears to be glistening with moisture, possibly sweat or oil. The lighting is warm and soft, creating a golden hue on the skin. Her lips are visible, with a hint of red lipstick. The background is a plain, light-colored surface, likely a bed or a massage table. The overall composition emphasizes the texture and contours of the skin, with the hands and arms framing the central area of the chest.

Just published! Is your enemy’s enemy always your friend? My new novel ‘Friend or Foe?’ is a fast-paced thriller set largely in south-west Scotland during World War Two.

The two central characters visit Cairn Head near Isle of Whithorn in Galloway where the temporary harbour shown in the inset image is being tested for use in an invasion of Europe. The main image is a modern reverse view of the wartime photograph.

Find out more on my website:

This modern image shows the coastline near Cairn Head in Galloway, with a rocky beach in the foreground and on the right, as far as the horizon just above the middle of the frame. The narrow band of visible sea is blue, and the sky is blue with the light coming from the right. There is a black and white image inset into the bottom right of the frame showing a reverse view from the air with a temporary harbour with a roadway leading to the beach shown in the main photograph. The front cover of ‘Friend or Foe?’ is shown in the top left corner.

There are many #queer folx already building on #fedi RN. The vibes are not what needs work. It's the problems, which is why 15 of us (some not on fedi yet, but will join soon) are meeting IRL for Brew & Build coworking for the Open Web on Sunday, September 28, 2025 at 12:30pm in Burnaby!

LGBT+ creatives and #BIPOC data folx of various ages (we're very inclusive but we do have Millenials and GenZ) will meet face to face post FediCon 2025 to officially launch #FediCollective and the specially formed #PeerTube co-op to help make video sharing more accessible and economical on hashtag#DWeb

Stop waiting for committees to fix Fediverse "vibes." We're already building the inclusive communities you claim are missing.

Like a community saying "nah, your tired old sexist, homophobic and racist jokes aren't welcome" is on the comedian to keep pace with society's changing tastes. But the government/state shutting you down & threatening you because they don't like you? That's limiting free speech.

Eigentlich wollte ich ja nichts mehr zum Mord an dem Rechtsextremisten in den USA schreiben, aber ist euch mal aufgefallen, wie sehr sich der Rechtsextremismus schon normalisiert hat?

Der Cicero schreibt einen Nachruf, der ÖRR bezeichnet ihn als konservativ und umstritten, die USA droht mit dem Entzug von Visa, wenn man sich kritisch äußert.
US-Bürger werden bei ihrem Arbeitgeber angeschwärzt. Online werden Todeslisten von linken Influencern erstellt.
Dunja Hayali bekommt, weil sie sich kritisch äußert, einen Shitstorm mit Todesdrohungen.
Dass das EU-Parlament keine Schweigeminute für einen Faschisten abgehalten hat, wird zu einem großen Skandal aufgeblasen.
Mit dabei sind immer wieder auch FDP- und Unionsmitglieder. Die sogenannte "bürgerliche Mitte" lässt ihre Masken fallen - sie muss sich nicht mehr verstecken.

Mein Sohn und meine große Tochter haben jetzt Ethikunterricht bei Verena Bunschweiger, einer Lehrerin, die eine (freundlich ausgedrückt) fragwürdige Einstellung zu Kindern und Eltern hat und deren Ehemann aktiv im verschwörungsideologischen, nach rechts weit offenen Milieu unterwegs ist.

Falls jemand Ideen/Vorschläge hat, wie ich dagegen vorgehen kann und welche Möglichkeiten ich in Bayern habe - bitte kontaktieren.

After the old hackers.town fell into the void, I’ve wandered back to start over thanks to help from the always amazing @Rob_T_Firefly and @thegibson. Let me re-introduce myself. If you knew me before, you might remember me as the eternal noob with an autistic-level obsession for old telephones and telephony equipment. All my past posts are gone, so consider this a reboot. I'm really glad to be back on the Fediverse and I’m ready to start tracking down all the good payphone photos and hacker fun.

Also, another question,
Is there a project that merge functionality of #Indieweb with #activitypub ?
E.g. a cross compatibily layer with PubSubHubBub, webmentions, etc
To let #indieweb user, website owner comment on #activitypub user & vice versa.
I know following RSS/Atom wouldn't be an issue & that works. I'm more interested in dynamic notifications, pingbacks, search, federation between activitypub & indieweb.
Re-toot, this important.

(pinging @smallcircles , because it is about small social circles, and you seem like the only indieweb person I know here on fediverse, you can ping people who related to IndieWeb)

Hey. If you've got a #Kobo #ebookreader, I will appreciate if you could extract some information from your device. Currently, I'm contributing to #postmarketOS wiki. Since #onyxboox refuses to release the kernel source code for its devices, I am trying to gather information about different ebook readers with #eink panel. So if someone wanted to mainline a #boox device, they could use drivers from Kobo since they release the kernel source code.

I would really hate my #booxleaf to become useless, because onyx does not give updates anymore nor it releases the kernel source code so the community can provide an alternative OS or ROM. By doing so, not only onyx contributes to #ewaste. But also forces users to change devices like every 2-3 years. Even when the device is working good. Like me device. Needless to mention #GPLViolation here.

I will post about me plans, later, God willing. For now, I am optimistic about mainlining me device and also #BooxPage. Because both use Snapdragon which has good support in mainline, it's an ebook reader so you don't need to add support for modem and GPU, and the Carta 1200 screen used in these two devices are also used in other e-book readers such as Kobo.

BTW, boosts appreciated! If you haven't got a wiki account, you can ping me and I can add the information :)

Edit: Thank you so much. There are 40 boosts so far. I wanted to say if you got other ebook readers with eink which they release the kernel source code, feel free to add them to the wiki, too.

Was ein "Bagatellbesuch" ist entscheidet das Fachpersonal in der Praxis, nicht irgendwelche Politiker*innen.

Mein Vater ist wegen Rückenschmerzen zum Arzt und kurz darauf gab es eine OP wegen Bauchspeicheldrüsenkrebs. Hätte er die Rückenschmerzen einfach ausgehalten, hätte er 0 Chancen gehabt.
Auch kleinere Problemchen können auf gefährliche Krankheiten hinweisen. Genau deshalb geht man in die Praxis.

Something I learned about over the weekend, a wonderful pun on Wikipedia is at risk of extinction. If it happens though it'll be for the right reasons at least.

On the "List of Cetaceans" page they have what you'd expect, against each whale in the list is a picture or drawing. Where they have neither they have "[cetacean needed]" which is a glorious pun!

They're down to one remaining, if someone is able to document Deraniyagala's beaked whale in the wild it'd be great news for conservation, but a sad day for puns.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_

This is a screenshot of a table on a web page, it lists different whales from around the world with information about population, locations, and where possible a photo of the whale in question. There is one photo missing, with the placeholder text [cetacean needed].

Hey liebe Menschen☺️ ✌️

Bei unserer letzten Online-Treffzeit haben wir über Self-Care gesprochen. Es kommen nun ein paar Posts, in denen wir das zusammenfassen.

Körper & Wohlbefinden

• Grundbedürfnisse erfüllen (Essen, Schlafen)
• unrealistische To-Dos streichen
• etwas Einfaches kochen oder Essen bestellen
• sich Bewegung verschaffen (zB. spazieren gehen, Kraftsport)
• Pausen machen
• Social Media Nutzung begrenzen oder ganz zu lassen
• Dinge tun, die die eigene (Gender) Identität validieren
