Is there a working ecommerce static site generator?

Flatmarket looked amazing, until I found out it hasn't been updated for five years and Stripe has moved on to a new API since then

“Brian Eno on NFTs & Automatism”

“The idea that Ayn Rand, that Nietzsche-for-Teenagers toxin, should have had her whacky ideas enshrined in a philosophy about money is what is terrifying to me.” https://the-crypto-syllabus.com/brian-eno-on-nfts-and-automatism/

Needs repeating: world economic inequality is staggering, and trends for the better are very weak if exist at all.

In 2021 the richest 10% owns 76% of total wealth and bottom 50% just 2%.

Following on my thread from June, here's an upsetting article about how self-governed publicly funded homeless tent villages in Portland were converted to a conventional governance model: https://www.portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2021/12/14/37410751/small-gestures-of-trust-what-was-learned-and-lost-in-creating-portlands-emergency-homeless-villages
(thanks for the link, @anarchistbicycleclub).

"Residents said they could tell that there was a change in leadership almost overnight. Villages suddenly saw their three daily meals reduced to two, locks placed on community storage units, and a restriction on giving away supplies to homeless people who weren’t residents. All Good brought on 60 staff to replace the work previously being done by volunteers and residents—and then some. Unlike the earlier iteration of C3PO villages, All Good hired case workers to work directly with residents to help them with anything from securing permanent housing to applying for health care. All Good informed all residents who had been employed by R2DToo that they could keep their jobs only if they agreed to move out of the village within six months."

Does anyone know of any published lists of celebrities and/or microcelebrities who publish to the Fediverse?

I wonder how many educators are on here.

There were thriving communities of educators on Tumblr and Twitter, but Tumblr's went to heck after moderated hashtags went away and Twitter is ... Twitter.

The fediverse has Scholar.social, but that's more of an instance for college/university level academics. I'd like to connect with other K-12 educators.

my kid just figured out how to put a full debian install on his school-issued locked-down chromebook. the first thing he did was install firefox which lets him bypass the school content blocker system (they did this as a browser extension rather than an OS-level firewall, oops). second thing was to put ublock origin on it, since somehow the school locked all the students out of installing ad blockers. (I know, right?)

anyway he's pretty stoked about it and wanting to learn more. he likes learning thru videos; can anyone recommend a video series for command-line basics? he's got some basic programming experience in Lua and knows HTML but has only very rudimentary shell exposure.

the paid app gives you less info than the free one

Who would have guessed

IMO the only reason to use #RadarScope instead of #Wx is the mping reports

"More generally, I believe that #opensource development should return to its roots as a #freesoftware movement guided by moral principles. Doing so would help the open source community set better boundaries, which would in turn improve software quality, funding, and working conditions. Without a moral center to give developers a spine, they’ll continue to race to the bottom to please corporate interests."
