AT Protocol, the infrastructure powering Bluesky, “represents one of the most concrete opportunities for Europe to create their own social networking infrastructure,” says Dutch data analyst @laurenshofHere are four case-studies on European projects that give us hope:
(sorry I didn't want to put you two against each others, and yes, Jack and I are friends from way back)
But it's a good question, so until now my expectation for decentralization for something like bluesky, was merely, can you basically just spin a server, generate your DID and hop on. Which I thought was just around the corner. But I hadn't realized that not only can you not join in without asking bluesky, the solution is more bureacratic than that, it involves something akin to a domain name authority.
So, that infrastructure will NEVER be open, as the network grows, the initial payload will explode in size and get rid of smaller replication services until only amazon scale services are even capable to "mine", and so you've got 3 new arbiters that tells us who gets to participate and who doesn't, and you can be sure that Bezos and Elon are going to be on that board. It sounds to me like an awful deal, it feels more like picking a Battle Net server than a federation, to use Joe's metaphore.
I heard someone this week call Bluesky a honeypot for leftist, and I think I see it now.

The Native Linux app for NVIDIA GeForce NOW is now in Beta
NVIDIA have today released the Beta for their new Native Linux app for GeForce NOW, available as a Flatpak so it should run across most x86-64 systems.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
you mention in the article that it's a flatpak but the nvidia download page just has a binary. perhaps my reading comprehension is poor but where's the flatpak? flathub?
EDIT: disregard. i am, indeed, dense. the flatpak is nabbed with their installer.
thanks for reporting on this!

FOSS Weekly #26.05: Clawdbot Mania, NexPhone, Things We No Longer Use Terminal for and More Linux Stuff
When was the last time you were forced to use the terminal?Abhishek Prakash (It's FOSS)
Went exploring old backups of old webroots and found this picture I took at work like, 20+ years ago
I thought it had been lost to time, but here it is, highlighting how JetDirect wasn't exactly a safe and secure protocol, and reminding me that the other admin got upset with me until I removed it
Fun times
oh I definitely enjoy websites like those of yours and of folk in the webring. I also still like the idea of maintaining a space in which to house works and collected knowledge; but then it pretty much just sits there, gathering dust, becoming insignificant in a way.
not that my goal is to garner popularity. I don't have the words yet to clearly communicate how it feels to exist right now. the closest I can compare it to would be something like camping in a once gorgeous and serene spot but now there's glampers and instagrammers all over the place. and to sort of stand out and be heard, you'd have to have already been quite established, or be forced to resort to the tactics of content creators (which I find unsettling)
@neauoire I like to imagine my website as a little sketch book of words. Sometimes the sketches are just for me, sometimes they are for sharing, and then once they are in my little book I can show them around whenever the topic comes up.
I don't even broadcast all the changes I make to it. There are many pages that just appear without any sort of forshadowing. Pages like my bookmarks just updating whenever.
I think you have good connections and with a community that's much closer. I toyed with the idea of becoming an established artist and making a career out of it, on and off in the past few years, and that was one of the reasons I started my website to begin with.
while I did meet interesting people through my site, it ultimately didn't really do much for my career pursuits. it doesn't help that I'm quite isolated where I'm at (ironic, given it's a city of millions).
I've secretly envied those who seem to be doing quite well in that regard and I've wondered how they got there: consistency perhaps but for how long, or some stroke of luck. the road more traveled of promoting oneself isn't at all enticing though.
to me, social media killed the idea of having a portfolio. then AI and vibe coding killed whatever programming and gamedev projects I've been planning. the earliest iteration of my site had short stories, but now I don't see myself wanting to get back to writing.
I still have art, but there's nothing to be done with it; and so I'm stuck on what to do, withering in the meantime

@neauoire i find it quite charming as well. there's a delicateness to it almost like a handwritten look, with a small blend of medieval.
But seeing this really shows why the macintosh team's head exploded when they saw it and why they completely pivoted to. erm... rip it off and be first to market....

32 People Died in ICE Custody in 2025, as #Minneapolis Killings Spark Outrage
“Of those who died in #ICE custody last year include Geraldo Lunas Campos, whose death in #Texas has been ruled a homicide.
Also Wael Tarabishi, who died of a rare genetic disease thirty days after his father, Wael’s primary caregiver, was detained by ICE after a routine check-in at an immigration facility in Dallas.”
