@Idcrafter @benpocalypse @furilabs > makes more stuff possible in Waydroid

Not exactly - it's just that Waydroid has some stuff already implemented for Halium that it doesn't have for mainline yet, but this could change relatively easily.

(in fact, I'm supposed to be changing that and you can blame me for why it's not happening yet 🙈)

@benpocalypse The answer may be that it's in a different category of phones - it uses Android HAL as a base, relies on outdated kernel etc. For some people that's fine, but for some (like me) this brings in some of the same issues that make them uninterested in Android phones in the first place.

I saw Primuz performing "Culture Clash" live in 2019, but TIL that The Aristocrats have released a whole album with them afterwards 😋 Apparently they randomly stumbled upon that performance on YouTube and decided to collaborate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hNdV5Q5EIQ #music #progrock #fusion

@KekunPlazas @cas @newbyte OK, I may be missing something actually? What's so worrying about "adopting an app" aside of it being somewhat cheesy? It sounds like playing to people's egos and their sense of agency in order to encourage donations, is there more to it?

@cas @newbyte What I wanted to point out is that "engaging in the system" isn't a foreign idea in FLOSS - it's been built on using the system against itself.

@cas @newbyte engaging in "the system" is the whole idea behind GPL ;)

@evan @maryjane Wayback Machine's archive is very incomplete, I could probably scavenge more from my XMPP logs already. No real need for that data though other than feeding my curiosity. Thanks anyway!

@maryjane Pinging @evan then, thanks!

Do you happen to remember whether the old profiles of StatusNet-based identi.ca users got archived anywhere?

Does anyone happen to know whether the old data of #identica users that weren't migrated over when it switched from #StatusNet to #pumpio has been archived anywhere? I see a mention that there was a plan to upload it to @internetarchive, but can't find anything more than that. #fediverse #ostatus

@grzeeesiek @rail_ I tak dobrze, że nie wybiegł ciuchci z naprzeciwka z wyciągniętymi ramionami by pomóc jej wyhamować 😆

@foxyoreos @bnewbold @cwebber Yeah, I mean, if mastodon.social decides to lock their users up, people there will lose access to about 70% of the current network - that's disruptive enough to stir things up. If Bluesky does it, it will be day as usual, aside of some nerds like us getting somewhat angry for a while. You get permissionless backup of the old network, but all the people you used to follow are now closed in a silo anyway and they'll stay there until they get other reasons to leave.

@bnewbold @cwebber > The bar we are shooting for is to convince people that atproto is legitimate and useful even if Bluesky and the team adopt the worst of intentions.

Oof, that's a high bar. The protocol itself may still be technically useful, sure, but Bluesky could tomorrow block access to its PDS and relays, disallow migrations, stop digesting data from other PDSes or even completely drop atproto - and the vast majority of now locked-in users wouldn't notice.

@aeva The only thing that matters is that it's a set of utils and abstractions that I, specifically, considered useful at some point while making games; representing the way I, specifically, think about coding and managing them.

Though I don't really make an engine as a hobby, it just happens as a side product of taking a common denominator of my games that were (mostly) made as such.

@stfn Fair enough! Just wondered if there were some hidden reasons to not do it, as my knowledge about AP is still mostly theoretical.

@stfn If what you wanted was bot hosting, have you considered exposing an ActivityPub actor directly from the bot rather than hosting an external instance?

@pavel @badrihippo @tripplehelix @jacobscharmberg I'm not and seems like I misread the table at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_efficiency#Comparison_table indeed! 😅 Networks tend to disable 3G due to that reason so it passed the sniff test. Thanks for doubting!

I can somewhat excuse #itchio for not resolving #fediverse handles with #WebFinger, effectively limiting their support to (not all) #Mastodon instances even if their reason to not do so is rather silly, but this coming out of #Valve's resourceful #Steam is just ridiculous.
