Fascinating look at how is being used by the SFO art museum to help encourage revisiting its cultural objects. Still early days, but you can see the potential here -> “The reason I am telling you all of this is that SFO Museum has written it's own limited ActivityPub server implementation and we have, in fact, created an ActivityPub account – a social media, account – for every object in our collection.” https://orthis.social/@thisisaaronland/112339899293624779

@ricmac lots to delve into here. Is it ironic that it will take me several reads to digest?
And after going "what's this Pen thing?" I had to gulp for not knowing about the ACMI lens despite having been there many times (ok, but not since COVID came along).
I do remember that MONA in Hobart also had this kind of scheme in place. I probably have an email it generated for post-visit online revisiting of a time there. I wonder if that still works.
Anyway, thanks for posting this!

I found the email from MONA - from 2015 !
It goes to https://theo.artpro.net.au/login/
and after entering my email I got sent a fresh link and can see my tour again.
Shall I say that again?
2015
At my work, the IT people can't ever manage any web system change without breaking every link, over and over again for as long as we've had web systems.
(I've been there 35 years so that's only part of my time.)
So a tip o' the hat to MONA for this one!

Anybody use sqlite3? I'm trying to open an sqlite3 directory to which I have read but not write access, and the first thing I do is type ".tables", and it says "Error: attempt to write a readonly database". I could sudo to the user that owns the file, but then I get a little nervous because I don't want to write to the database, I just want to read it. If I write to it right now that probably means I'm breaking something. Is there a way to interact with a sqlite3 database in readonly mode?

@mcc at the risk of being obvious, can you not copy it to a place where you do have write permission and then read that?
Not saying it's a general solution but might be a temporary method.
