After a week of development, and using existing code to get a head start, I have the beginnings of an ActivityPub server written. It currently does very little in the way of ActivityPub processing: there is an /inbox that dumps all requests to a queue for later processing (along with the information needed to validate the HTTP signature minis the public key), there is an /owner/actor and there is a very basic webfinger implementation.

This is enough to get the account viewable thru existing software (see @teknomunk), but not enough to actually interact with anyone. Implementing code to get incoming follow requests working is my next priority.

I'm already getting activities delivered (mastodon.social keeps wanting to Delete @bappity for some reason).

If this project doesn't stall, and enough projects I've started have stalled for me to hedge here, I expect to move to the new server when enough of the basic functionality is in place so that all my normal activities can be done without me switching accounts.

Earth’s reflectiveness, or planetary albedo, may be primarily responsible for 21st century climate forcing.
"it is obvious that the increase in absorbed solar radiation, modulated by changes in cloud albedo, has been the dominant forcing factor driving warming in recent decades."
CO2 is a nothing burger. Clouds rule the climate, the sun is in charge.

@clipperchip @opal @hermit Every language needs to have someone to write a game in it.

@opal @hermit @clipperchip Just by looking at it, it seems more versatile than batch files which I used to make games with back in middle school.

@opal @hermit @clipperchip Would it be possible to make a text-adventure in VimScript. I never messed with it.

@ArdainianRight @ChristiJunior @PraxisOfEvil We are getting to the point where you can be canceled for not being explicitly woke.

@charliebrownau @wrongthink @ArdainianRight @lunarfox I don't want to dig through the entire video just for that one clip though. It's late.

@wrongthink @ArdainianRight @lunarfox I wish I had that clip from the documentary Revolution OS where someone asked ESR about what he thinks we people say that FOSS is communist and him getting pissed off about that.

@collappsar @alex At the very least, it should only appear in the browsers console, not on the UI itself.

Here's a website documenting homemade guns before the 3d printed ones popped up. There's a lot of jank homemade shit there before the FGC-9 revolutionized things.

@ArdainianRight @ChristiJunior @PraxisOfEvil Are there any jobs out there that require their employees to list their pronouns on social media?
