Random question: is it possible to "include" Atom feeds inside other Atom feeds by reference?

My use case: have several focused thematic feeds (e.g. posts on my blog, videos on my YouTube channel, major announcements on my game's site) and them aggregating them all in, say, filiph.net/all_english.xml by doing something like:

<feed>
<title>...</title>
<link rel="include" href="https://filiph.net/text/atom.xml"/>
<link rel="include" href="https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCw-szA50Zcuc01vDVO-4i2g"/>
</feed>

Maybe @timbray knows?

@filiph @timbray Sounds like a use case for XInclude, XSLT, and other arcane XML technologies…

My only regular experience with desktop Linux is Raspberry Pi OS.

The GUI is buggy. Today, the taskbar disappeared when I turned on the monitor. As I dragged a window, the taskbar reappeared. I released the mouse, but the window kept dragging offset from the cursor.

I feel like I cannot rely on it because if there are that many visible bugs, there likely are more invisible bugs.

I am sure I could spend time researching and tweaking, but I have better things to do than fix a default.

@Jeremiah As Ubuntu became bloated and more tailored to push Canonical's commercial services, I've really enjoyed Fedora with vanilla Gnome. It's up-to-date, stable, and both desktop metaphors and gestures are really similar to macOS.
The only tricky part could be non-free drivers and video codecs though, looks like WiFi doesn't work out of the box on MacBooks.

Also, for Apple Silicon MacBooks there's Fedora Asahi Remix: https://asahilinux.org/fedora/

@Jeremiah (But in VMs the drivers will be non-issue. I'm not sure how it will handle the graphics acceleration in VM though.)

Lol, chápu, že Prima je televize, ale myslel jsem, že tam v roce 2023 mají určitý pojem o tom, jak funguje e-mail a internet.

@mirek @honzajavorek Proto používám aliasy (email relays) a svůj pravý email vydám výjimečně.
Jen to občas vede k zábavným situacím když alias musím diktovat. Jednou mi volal majitel eshopu že ten email co jsem zadal je jejich.

Can I please ask this amazing Mastodon community for your help? I’m doing my research studies on social media behaviors. If you have a few minutes, can you please complete 📝 this SURVEY or 🔃this toot ?
I’m from The University of Queensland 🇦🇺: , feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
THANK YOU in advance 🤩

@nad1a Done. Thanks for doing this research, I'm looking forward to the results!

I've got a bit confused in the question on the last page to rank my use of social media. I know that I should mark 0 the ones I don't use, but how do I know if 1 is the highest or the lowest? (I went with 1 for highest)

I'm still wondering what Meta has to gain from the federation.

“They want to steal fediverse users!”
Really? With ~140M users Threads is already 10 times bigger than estimated total size of fediverse¹. And I don't think majority of folks here are excited about anything what Meta offers.

“They'll pull XMPP on the fediverse!”
See Evan on that: https://cosocial.ca/@evan/110685705680608213

Personally I think they'll use ActivityPub as a shield against regulators: “Look, we don't have a monopoly, it's an open network!” or something like that.

Maybe Threads is moving to federation precisely because Meta doesn't perceive the fediverse as a threat.

A new set of monospace fonts designed for programmers.

(Although could be used by non-programmers, of course.)

(The name of this set of fonts is "monAspace". I.e., "monospace" with the 2nd "o" replaced by an "a".)

@reiver The name is a subtle tribute to Mona the octoctocat, GitHub's mascot. https://github.com/monatheoctocat

Why is it disrespectful to talk with about sex? 🤔 These prude content guidelines are ridiculous, stupid and apparently don’t even work.

@jakub Is this surprising for you, coming from the US-based company?

I finally figured out why by (https://hu.ma.ne/aipin​) feels vaguely familiar.

Back in 2009 there was a TED talk and a demo of “SixthSense” wearable device with a built-in projector: https://www.ted.com/talks/pattie_maes_pranav_mistry_meet_the_sixthsense_interaction

jnv,
@jnv@mastodon.social avatar

@Albertkinng I'm just curious about these (alleged) influences and inspirations.
When I saw AI Pin's on-hand projection it triggered this latent memory from time when I learned about ubiquitous computing. And ever since the 90's SixthSense was only a prototype, so I find it pretty exciting to see this technology becoming real after almost 3 decades.
