Not sure what I did to deserve this from YouTube: https://storage.5apps.com/basti/public/shares/170424-2004-Screenshot%20from%202017-04-24%2022-03-49....

We'll have a mainnet staging environment for Lightning networks and L/BTC-based smart contract sidechains. Can't wait to test the first implementations with actual value tokens. #segwit

I find the fact that Litecoin is activating SegWit soon much more relevant for our future than who becomes the next ruler of $nationState.

Going back from the fediverse to Twitter gets worse every day. Littered with ads and a single corp owns the whole medium. Just feels wrong.

In case it helps anyone: I was able to update my ancient ejabberd on Ubuntu using the repo at https://apt.jabber.at. Thank you, whoever is running that!

Is ejabberd the single most oudated package on Ubuntu? And there's no PPA whatsoever?

Took the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt for a spin, and I'm pretty impressed. The turn-by-turn navigation and Strava route sync are fantastic. #cycling

For people stuck on a certain corporation's ad-based service, here's the reply to my Autocrypt question: https://mastodon.xyz/users/HerraBRE/updates/114191

My uncle is still using his iPhone. Without the version number, just the original iPhone. But please, tell me again how you're are all anti-capitalist and anti-consumerism!

Anyone has experience with or opinions on Autocrypt for email? https://autocrypt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Sorry that I'm commenting on this all the time, but we're now approaching 1000 Mastodon instances. ONE THOUSAND. https://instances.mastodon.xyz/list

Saw Ghost in the Shell last night. I liked the parts that were adapted shot by shot (albeit a bit darker and colder). But I found the story changes to be pretty disappointing, especially with the ending. It's almost as bad as "The Day the Earth Stood Still", in that the philosophy of the original is perverted and smart questions ("where to go from here?") are replaced with dumb answers ("all good now, we'll just keep doing what we did").

Current #fediverse status: 541 active Mastodon instances online, with 181,061 accounts. Unreal. https://social.lou.lt/users/mastodonusercount/updates/19865

Thanks to @nxd4n@mastodon.social, this toot was posted automatically from my Known website. Or as the #IndieWeb cool kids like to say: I'm now POSSEing my toots.
