If it ain't fun, you're not doing it right.

@RyunoKi
@killyourfm @clacke @mrchrisadams yes. It would use mojolicious...

Bit of a rough ride this morning with video recordings, so any FOSDEM talks that happened before about 13:00 are on hold for video review today.

All other speakers, remember to check your mailbox for talk review requests. The sooner you review, the sooner we release your video!

@clacke @RyunoKi @killyourfm @mrchrisadams

It's been on my low priority todo list to write something that will send out peertube-compliant activitypub messages for existing video without requiring a full peertube instance.

Then we can just run it next to video.fosdem.org and be done with it...

@RyunoKi @killyourfm @mrchrisadams

Yeah, I gave up on uploading to YouTube now. It's just way too annoying to get their API approval.

According to the database of the video review system:

@jpmens @allo owncloud was problematic, partially because the people that ran the business had very strange ideas. This was the reason for the fork.

It's not surprising therefore that nextcloud is much more reliable

@stroobl
@vuurdistel mjah, geen commentaar 😉

@stroobl
@vuurdistel ik moet zeggen, dat is één ding van België dat ik écht niet mis: het klimaat.

@jpmens @alexlehm you have clearly never tried to use MegaCLI.

Cool blog post by Duolingo on how they started animating their characters. I actually ran an extra lesson to see this in action.

And then another one, because the first lesson didn't show any characters 🙄

Unfortunately it appears to not be active yet for my lessons. Soon, I'm sure.

@foone
It should! Wouldn't be doom without it.

@welshpixie
@edwardloveall I've had a remote arrive from Germany after about a year. I'd completely forgotten about it 😂

South African post is not weird, it's horribly broken. But yeah, at least things do usually arrive, eventually.

@purpleidea
@thunderbird you know that already happened, right? Thunderbird was split off of Mozilla a while ago, they don't get funding from Mozilla anymore. All their funding is now separately handled and donated by people who would rather donate to Thunderbird rather than to Firefox.

@foone rage against the machine never said which machine they're angry with, but it's pretty obvious it must've been a printer.

@mmasnick
So you're saying that the us version of free speech, with its corporate takeover of media and the grievous polarization of the populace, is preferable to the EU way?
I'm going to have to disagree with you there

@purpleidea Thunderbird is a mail client?
@thunderbird

@ariadne is there anything that requires "web3"? Didn't think so 😉

@eevee when it came out, its Javascript engine was a lot faster than those of the other browsers that existed at the time, and they also pioneered the idea of running each tab in its own process, and they ran massive marketing around that.

Of course, they lost that edge by now (no pun intended).

@jpmens @partim I had a glance at the activitypub spec the other day, and it allows you to specify multiple versions of the content (each with their own mime type) IIRC. So yeah, you can enter markdown, and the server can convert it to html, and you can still edit the markdown because it's *right there*.
