Stabbing, but they have yet to locate a patient. And apparently it's traffic mayhem🤔 (unit just requested police clear the road)
Sideways hail and rain and lightning and wind! OK!
We are sitting in the dark (on purpose, power is on) watching the flashes and listening to it all.
Haven’t had a storm like this for a minute…

Video Clip: John Stewart | Chuck Schumer Does Not Understand The Urgency Of The Moment
And by the way, they're already like, 'Chuck Schumer deserves a lot of credit...' Chuck Schumer deserves nothing. Chuck Schumer fought tooth and nail against half of these people… he does not understand the urgency of the moment and what the future demands.”

I still often think about the fact that Aaron Swartz was only 14 years old when he helped develop RSS..
Imagine what he could give us when given the chance 🙏
RIP Aaron♥️
I've been carrying around an idea for a federated code forge for a while. Two things sharpened it recently: Tangled's post on the federated code forge, which builds a forge on the AT Protocol, and a Jujutsu workshop (Korean) by Seongmin Lee (@boltless.me), who works at Tangled, held at @turingappledev.
My version would build on ForgeFed, the #ActivityPub protocol for code forges (spec), so that repositories, issues and merge requests federate the way posts already do. The idea is early enough that I haven't even come up with a codename. What I want from it, roughly:
- Git and Jujutsu (so-called
jj) as equal clients. Not Git hosting with Jujutsu support bolted on, but a forge that understands both, so what Jujutsu is actually good at, stacked changes, becomes a first-class unit of review instead of a pile of separate pull requests. - No owner layer. Since the point is federation, one instance represents one person or one organization, permissions are managed per server, and a repository lives at
forge.example/myrepoinstead offorge.example/owner/myrepo. - A migration path off GitHub that keeps the history. Importing the code is easy; importing the issues, pull requests and discussions with their original authors attached is the part that matters. I'd keep a placeholder for each GitHub account and let whoever owns that account prove it, after which the instance swaps in their fediverse actor, so attribution carries over. How to express that claim in ActivityPub is the part I haven't figured out. It may need a new FEP.
Where this stands: I haven't read the whole #ForgeFed spec, Fedify doesn't ship the vocabulary yet (fedify-dev/fedify#751), and I have too much else going on to start soon. If you've run a forge or implemented ForgeFed, I'd like to hear whether any of this makes sense.
Incredible.
Actual is over a billion megabytes or 9 billion megabits (20 petabits), which is 200 million times larger than 5 megabits. 🤣
We're interested in opening up our instance a little bit to Fediverse power-users who want to help us dogfood #Bonfire. The environment seems to be mostly stable, but we're currently running on latest alpha / beta branches, so Here Be Dragons.
If you're interested in jumping over to a new instance and using it exclusively for a while, feel free to DM me for an invite!
I work with someone named Roxanne and it is a daily struggle for me to not say her name in a sing-song voice like Sting does in the 1978 song Roxanne.
@fesshole If it’s any consolation, I’m sure she’s had to deal with that her entire life.
It's so lovely catching up with friends. @gwil is just the loveliest
Trump offered head of the UFC and violent abuser, Dana White, the job of White House Comms secretary, via Truth Social..
He almost immediately declined the role because why would he do that and he has zero expertise.
What is even funnier is that there is some speculation going on that someone suggested THIS Dana White (https://www.war.gov/About/Biographies/Biography/Article/1170857/dana-w-white/) for the role, someone with a communications background in the US Department of War 🤢 .
Dementia Trump assumed they meant his wrestling buddy and immediately offered him the job on Truth Social.
Absolute fucking clown shoes.

Hmm, it's never good when the kid stops home for the bulletproof vest for work 😬
@ai6yr geeeez what , did he do? pick up a shift in a less than wonderful neighborhood? The nightclub district on a Saturday night? Frat row after a football loss?
For a while, I was under the impression that all spiciness, or burning sensation in food flavoring, would come from capsaicin, the compound that causes it in chili peppers. Then I realized that Sichuan peppers are a quite different kind of heat. Wasabi (horseradish) is different yet again.
How many hot-flavored compounds are there? At least five!
