Software developer. Most comfortable with Go, can do frontend too. I built jungletv.live, underlx.com, tny.im and more. I know more about the internals of GTA V and Watch Dogs than their average players. Sometimes I make music and high effort shitposts.

"Invalid handle" is Bluesky jargon; it's also what most would like to say when trying to read my username. Too-young-me chose it 15 years ago, and it stuck.
I'm gbl08ma everywhere on the internet, but you can call me just G-B-L or Gabriel. He/him. Feel free to reach out, I think I don't bite.

I don't listen to enough rock music to know if it's actually good though, so this is not a recommendation. 🤷 Please go buy/become a patron to find out, I guess 🤪

Honestly, this is probably preferable to running stuff on a single cheap server that's technically always online, but only because you haven't rebooted it in ages, meaning it's still running the kernel from two years ago 💀
For You will be down for a few minutes.
I need to reboot the pc because Ubuntu updated nvidia drivers and I can no longer play games. That's one downside of serving the feed from your home pc.

Given the current technological limitations regarding labelers, this only goes so far as your trust in me, but still:
It is not my intention to ever use @pds.labeler.tny.im to limit what content its subscribers see, not even "for funsies," or to hide my own accounts, or any other exceptions.

the owner of the pronouns labeler using it for moderation (blocking/hiding their account, idk what else) is crazy. Users should have more control over how labelers control their experience 😵💫

It is probably not a good idea to run a PDS on a machine without DNS resolution caching. One systemd-resolved installation later, things might be feeling slightly snappier.

New hyper specific Linux kernel fact just dropped: removing this line of code makes the touchscreen on my decade-old Intel Atom tablet work (at the expense of breaking it on devices where the mentioned Chipone chip isn't actually HID compliant, and I don't know how to distinguish the two cases).

This probably means I need to fetch the DID document for each account a PDS says it hosts, instead of just relying on what the PDS says, ugh. (Ugh because DID document resolving is slower than I'd like, and it's also centralized). In retrospective this is kinda obvious, we shouldn't trust random PDS

Really disappointing to see Sabrepulse using AI to create their latest albums.
His statement says otherwise.. but I typed "Math Rock Chiptune" into Suno AI and the results sound the same to me.. especially the drums and leads sound identical.

Maybe we should start educating school kids at younger age about data management and privacy and the nature of the internet.
Doing so might lead to better outcomes for everyone.

wait so the conspiracy is that content moderation is a play to train AI in a sneaky illegal fashion, taking an absurd risk in storing pre-moderation originals, and feeding them into a genAI model... for the purposes of capturing image data before it's posted unprotected to a public social network?

i would rather ml categorise my images than risk dirtying my eyes to possibly the worst images imaginable. csam and ndii and even worse images if that's even possible??
This is one of my favorite takes. I’m sure people would love a 30-day delay on having their images posted so they can be reviewed by hand and also it’s Good Actually to make humans look at some of the most heinous images in existence all day

I don't think we can pitch decentralization as a solution to people who want a bad account banned because they're not trying to fix what they see in their own feeds, they're trying to control what I see in mine.
Fixing their own feeds is already accomplished by blocking and going on with your day

His appeal is denied. He will remain permanently banned on BlueSky’s side.

I think that more transparency in moderation actions is generally desirable. With almost everything being public in ATProto (at least until private storage ships), it's surprising that the reasoning behind certain Bluesky moderation actions is not. We can't even be sure if this is intended or a bug.
@spacelawshitpost.me getting suspended on an independent PDS is very concerning, not just because you can't see his posts, even on alternative frontends, but also because no one seems to know what for or how long. Really puts self-hosting into question! We shouldn't need Kuba to have info on this!
Ok, looks like it doesn't (no "exp" field):

This feels like an achievement when it should just be a transaction - Bandcamp is going through severe technical issues... if they don't extend this Bandcamp Friday it's a bad look, lots of artists see a significant uptick in sales during these events.
