@eleventy needs your support. This is a project I've had a lot of fun with on a personal level, and also started using it for a small documentation project at work now, very successfully.

I appreciate these Lil' Linux Lessons, because all my linux experience has been self taught. I've often found things that most people just assume you know...I don't. Follow @vkc for more.

I just read that Holly Hunter was going to be the captain on a new Star Trek series and had to verify - it's true! :wily_ufo:

I’m rewatching Ugly Betty as a comfort show when I have downtime. So far it has held up, but reserving final recommendations until I get a bit deeper in.

I forgot there is a transgender storyline. It’s treated a bit comically with some truths sprinkled here and there. To be fair, that describes the show as a whole.

But oof some slang that should not have made it in.

Also, of course the actress wasn’t trans.

Tonight I learned about SCIM, a identity management standard, which has been picked up and supported by Microsoft.

It's mostly for user auto provisioning and de-provisioning.

Installed the docker of IceShrimp.NET, which isn't even in beta yet. I have a few installs under my belt now (Mastodon, Bonfire, GoToSocial, etc.) so I know the basic drill, but this was still a pretty easy install.

In the branch I used, there's no front end yet. Phanpy, Elk and Enafore handled at least the basic posting requests so the API is solid.

So cool to see dotnet code in the fediverse! Follow me @box464 :)

@box464 @box464 Love to see .NET, but curious about the app itself. Is it functionally unique from the others or more about learning/technologies?

@cbielstein It's following along the lines of IceShrimp and Firefish with emoji reacts and MFM. The idea is that admins with these platforms would be able to easily migrate.

A few things are being abandoned (Clips), and others are being added. (Not exactly sure what Magazines are)

We just finished Fargo, Season 5 and it was the best one yet. Every performer deserves an Emmy.

About 5 years ago, I had a health situation and I didn't know if I was going to be able to return to my job as the senior developer for my organization. I went into a documentation frenzy, basically writing down everything I did day to day in as much detail as I could for my team.

Any documentation is better than none. This one saved me hours today. Do it.

Have you ever watched a movie that had a moment that made no sense and it just went on like it didn't happen?

"It Follows", a horror film from a few years back had this - a random scene where some teenagers are hanging out watching TV when one pulls out a plastic seashell, flips it open, and it's some kind of e-reader / telephone with circular screens?

There's no further mention of it in the movie.

WTF. I still think about it to this day!

@box464 It's cool though! I would want one.

I’m looking for new shoes. Zappos presented me with this croc fever dream in my personal recommendations.

@stefan provides the fediverse with a lot of great apps and research. Go give his work a gold star (seriously, that's all he's asking for).

Embarrassing. I absolutely believed Phanpy did not have quote posting capabilities. I have even been jumping over to a different app on the rare occasion I use that feature, copying the post url, etc. over so I could find it. 🤦‍♂️

How could I miss it? The only thing I can think of is that at one time it didn't have them (I have been a Phanpy fan for a very long time), so I just blinded myself to them not being there out of habit.

I even run my own personal phanpy client instance. :psyduck:

@box464 I kinda sneak in this feature to observe responses 🫣

@cheeaun "purposely hidden" - it worked! :)

There's too many cool web things to learn in a lifetime. But I'm still going to try.

The three things that have helped me find a safe, happy social home on a larger instance are carefully curating who I follow, the hashtags I follow and keyword muting. This is my own self generated algorithm.

Still getting my bearings about how to make a smaller instance just as vibrant. Relays? Being more lax about who I follow? Maybe some of the newer fedi platforms like @newsmast and @Flipboard can help. I know @mammoth has hand curated topic feeds as well.
