If you've ever found yourself missing the "good old days" of the , what is it that you miss? (Interpret "it" broadly: specific websites? types of activities? feelings? etc.) And approximately when were those good old days?

No wrong answers — I'm working on an article and wanted to get some outside thoughts.

schmichael,

@molly0xfff I have been too online since I was a teenager in the 90s. Made Geocities pages, lived on IRC and ICQ, used newsgroups, etc.

I don’t really miss it. It’s always been balkanized (various chats, various phpbbs, slashdot, digg, something awful). The same arguments around moderation.

The tech was just awful. Browsers had splash screens they loaded so slowly. JPEGs were progressively loaded. Flash and Java abounded. Security was nonexistent.

But no outbrain. I do hate outbrain.

So @potus is now active, and due to federation is available here too. Unless your instance admins decided to defederate Threads. Because of reasons.

schmichael,

@jef @whitehouse I really miss NWS accounts, but as far as I know they’re not on Threads yet. There are Twitter scrapers, but they’re hampered by Twitter’s anti-scraping efforts. Any clue if there’s a fediverse option now or in the works for NWS?

New Blog: Software Needs To Be More Expensive https://blog.glyph.im/2024/03/software-needs-to-be-more-expensive.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

schmichael,

@geofft @glyph Yes! I have regularly spent hundreds of company dollars a day on cloud, sometimes leaving it running a week too long before a timeout is hit, without anyone batting an eye.

Any money I want to spend on other software takes pre authorization and expense reports. Barely anyone bothers.

Software needs an enterprise sales channel to get enterprise sales dollars. Companies don’t pay for things they can get just as easily for free. If they did: their investors would revolt.

Nomad has a security release today for one of our worst vulnerabilities. 😔

It's a path traversal that allows reading/writing the host filesystem from inside a container. Classic symlink TOCTOU path traversal.

The only silvering lining is that it does require coordination/knowledge-sharing between the Nomad user and the container to pull off. The code has to know what files are being templated by Nomad and leverage them for path traversal via symlink.

I just want an AI Blocker browser extension that hides all the uncanny valley garbage people are slapping on their sites because bad design is within everyone's reach now.

Hire Humans or just save yourself the 30 seconds you spent in ChatGPT making disturbing images and stick to text.

I am adding to The Discourse ✨

schmichael,

Regulators have demanded tech giants open protocols in the past. Meta sees a cheap and easy opportunity to get out ahead of that. It’s a win for open protocols and federation. If I’m wrong, we can unfederate at any time.

If you were hoping mastodon was going to somehow destroy big tech rather than coexist with it, I don’t know what to tell you. You’re going to have to do more than toss $5/mo to a niche network to unseat trillions of dollars and billions of users worth of entrenched megacorps. 🦦

I have been in the JOSE/JWT/OIDC weeds for months now, so it's extremely gratifying to see workload identity getting attention! 😍

The Lifestages of a Millennial

Childhood: pirated video games
Teenager: pirated music
Young adult: pirated movies
Adult: pirating paywalled news

All of this is mere training for US Millennials for when as geriatrics we have to figure out how to pirate healthcare.

Linode launches managed Nomad!

I'm very excited about this not only because I work on but because Linode has a special place in my heart. 🥰

Way back in the early aughts they were my first VPS, and first, and probably only, ad conversion! I clicked their ad on sourceforge dot net.

I hung out in their IRC channel and remember caker and crew chatting about when they were racking new servers.

Anyway! Time to give this managed Nomad a spin...

With phenylepherine and pseudoephedrine back in the news let me suggest the “secret” multiple doctors have given me over years of colds and allergies:

Nasal Sprays 💨

Put the medicine where the problem is!

Afrin (oxymetazoline) for congestion works better for me than pseudoephedrine with zero side effects. I hate how I feel on pseudoephedrine.

I can't promise anything, but I'd love to make sure your concerns are at least heard and any questions you have answered.

Oh hey Nomad has a Discord channel! Or rather all of does!

It's "unofficial" unlike Discuss and Github Issues, but come say hi if you're a Nomad user or just interested! 👋

Trying to shop for camping gear without using Reddit is awful. Giving up Twitter was easy, but giving up Reddit is proving much harder. So much durable comprehensive knowledge is trapped on Reddit.
