This is exactly why I'm also not that interested in Bluesky. It's not decentralized in a way that makes it resilient to a Musk-style takeover.

PDSs are cool, Mastodon can learn something from Bluesky's tech stack. But Mastodon made the right choices from the beginning to be decentralized for resiliency.

Donate it to a thrift store or someone who needs it

Folks who want to view the video using a third party client could always just copy and paste the link, so I don't see any problem

The artwork they did for that billboard is sick

You gotta clean it off a little sooner after watching porn

Can't wait to watch this. I missed out on the limited theatrical release. I wish it went to more theaters and had a longer run.

It's kind of a bummer as it's nice to have a more artistic representation of sex outside of porn which is more of a commodity. Movies can connect the sexy scenes to the non-sexy scenes which potentially makes them more powerful. Also, movies can tie moral value to sex which is interesting to explore.

I am in favor of sex in movies making a comeback, as long as it doesn't create problems for the actors.

Switched my parents from an iMac to an old Dell Optiplex running Elementary OS. It worked pretty well but there were some glitches with Pantheon DE and OS version upgrades required a reinstall, so I switched them to Fedora after a couple years. It's easier for me to support because I run Fedora on my laptop. Everyone's happy now. There is always some amount of tech support to do but lately it has been very low. I even helped my dad upgrade the RAM over the phone once, that was fun.

Make sure to check if it actually ran from the cron job, cron is a finnicky tool

I use Borg Backup, automated with a bash script that Borg provides. A cron job runs the script at the desired frequency. I keep backups on different computers, ideally I would recommend one copy in the cloud and one copy on a local machine. Borg compresses and encrypts its backups.

Edit: I migrated a server once using the backups from this system and it worked great.

Love Inkscape, using it for 15+ years.

I sure hope they fixed the bug from the last version where it would crash if you had a drawing tablet plugged in while opening the app. That has been a huge nuisance for the last few months.

Edit: They fixed it, god bless.

What are your expectations for this movie? Have you seen any other adaptations of Bram Stoker's novel? Is Robert Eggers the right director for this story?

I mocked up a better workflow for video in a mastodon mobile app. I'm not a developer, just a mobile user who wants to stay in their fedi app of choice (currently Moshidon) while enjoying multimedia content and not get booted out to a web browser every time I want to watch a video or listen to a podcast. I still have no idea how difficult or feasible it is to actually implement this concept.

I think it's very important for fediverse mobile apps to support audio and video streaming to integrate with platforms like Peertube, Castopod, Bandwagon (once that gets going), etc.
