Easter can happen any day between March 22 and April 25

Next year, Easter will fall on Hitler’s birthday

But for some reason, the GOP wants to be outraged Easter coincides with the International Transgender Day of Visibility

They are calling out the President for somehow moving the internationally recognized day to today

Yet it’s been the same day since 2010

Weird hill to die on

…but at least you’ll be resurrected in three days to seethe again

Happy 🏳️‍⚧️ ❤️

I've reached out to Meta/Threads devs regarding Nodeinfo and stats numbers for https://FediDB.org, unfortunately their legal dept rejected this.

I will use estimated numbers with the hope they will see this and have justification for reporting accurate stats.

Even though I have my own reservations regarding Meta (and how they've treated Pixelfed), putting my ego aside for the benefit of the fediverse is required when running an essential fedi service like FediDB.

I love my stylist, and you should too! 💕💙

  • Do you live near Seattle, or like flying?
  • Have you ever wanted a haircut that makes you scream "Holy shit, I look great!"?
  • Do you want a stylist who is absolutely a-fuckin-mazing?!

Meet Nicole.

I've gone to her twice, and will continue to forever now. My past 2 haircuts have been the best I've ever had, and she gives me wine! She's great.

She ditched a big corporate-owned salon to start her own thing, and she needs more clients!

Challenge accepted. 👍

So here's the finished post by @lxplm, hot off the press. ⌨️

Michael Parker: Just to clarify do you mean you'll send an invite on Google Meet, or Google Meet (original)? Sacha Sayan: Great question Michael. As a Google Workspace user, formerly GSuite, otherwise known as Google Apps for Work, previously Google Apps Premier Edition, aka Gmail for Your Domain, which would you recommend?

Thomas Kurian: We're introducing a new offering called Gemini Business, which lets organizations use generative AI in Workspace at a lower price point than Gemini Enterprise, which replaces Duet AI for Workspace Enterprise. Sacha Sayan: Hey Thomas, can I pay for it with Google Pay in Google Wallet, which replaced Google Pay, which replaced Android Pay, formerly known as Google Wallet? Sacha Sayan: If not we can jump on a call and discuss billing. I'll send you an invite on Google Meet, the enterprise Google Chat, previously Duo, which replaced Allo, the replacement for Hangouts, the rebrand of +Hangouts, which replaced Talk and Voice.

    One of my takeaways: it is not widely understood what is required for federation that is not in the spec

    To federate with other AP instances requires consensus on:

    • How to post and load posts (http signatures, not in the spec)
    • Account lookups (eg, webfinger)
    • What the meaning of a "note" is (overloaded term)
    • How to interpret collections and navigate them (not in the spec, or rather it's in the spec but is so broad as to not be useful)
    • Reply flows
    • JSON-LD

    etc

    @hrefna Agree 100%. Once that you are trying to implement ActivityPub, one realizes that just doing that do not guarantee it will work with Mastodon, so we decide to implement for Mastodon, which is an opinionated implementation of ActivityPub. Hashtags is just an example.

    Mastodon is to ActivityPub, what Google Chrome/WebKit was to HTML/CSS/JS.

    If you are building a social application that is NOT a microblogging application, why would one choose ? What concrete advantages—not theoretical nor dependent on the rest of the world changing—does it give you?

    @mapache@hachyderm.io avatar

    @hrefna that you already have a userbase. I can reuse my mastodon account in pixelfed and lemmy. There are millions of users already here, you do not need to focus in building a community, just building features.
