Annah's got the Shotgun (maiyannah@community.highlandarrow.com)'s status on Friday, 14-Apr-2017 06:01:24 UTC Annah's got the Shotgun
Going to style the instance up all fancy, but plateia.org is up now! It's designed to be kind of the neutral instance/flagship thing/watering hole for postActiv - check it out! For those interested in continuing to follow my !postActiv development, I'll be posting dev things from the account there (@maiyannah@plateia.org) from hereon out (though it'll still be on the group unless I forget, or its daily rambling.) I'm going to divide the accounts into this one for HLA instance admin/gaming/personal stuff, and that one for postActiv development stuff, ostatus/federation talk/etc etc.
If you want to try out what postActiv has to offer, registrations will be open tomorrow (well, later today depending on timezones), after I've had a chance to spruce it up themewise and such. -

@deadsuperhero @dredmorbius the idea of integrating instance donations with the UI is a good one. Visual feedback on the state of the instance. -

@schestowitz Trump is a symptom of a bad system. If he falls he'll be replaced by someone similarly awful. Not just the US of A but the world needs better systems for making intelligent collective decisions. Believing in demagogues isn't good enough - the world's problems are too big and individual personalities too susceptible to vanity projects. From the last century we already know how demagoguery works out so let's just skip over that part and move to something else. -

@schestowitz It's one of those inflection points. If he refocuses on Ubuntu desktop and server and doesn't try to unilaterally re-invent all the things then perhaps Ubuntu will be great again as a genuine community player. On the other hand maybe this is the beginning of his departure from FOSS altogether - especially given recent comments. The big dreams are over, employees downsized. Trying to fight with RedHat for cloud domination might not go so well.
But nothing lasts for ever. Maybe this is the time for a new (or old) distro to occupy the place which Ubuntu once did. -

@xj9 "There is no system but Pleroma, and GNU is one of its kernels."

@cocoron the biggest companies just purchase the relevant legislation. Lobbyists draft bills ready for the politicians to rubber stamp. -

@cwebber @polymerwitch I'm not on Mastodon and so I don't deal with CWs. In the Culture War over CWs my opinion is to keep the warnings to a barest possible minimum. Things like NSFW, but not much more than that. Elaborate tagging schemes mean you need to agree on some ontology, and having sections of what you're writing concealed by default from the reader may not be great if you're trying communicate in an open and honest way.
If I had to conceal "politics" under a tag then probably 80% of everything I say would be effectively censored by default in that kind of CW system. -

@maiyannah life is always a struggle against impossible odds. You only know what the good bits are if you've also had bad bits. -

@maiyannah it sounds like maybe install_cli is failing for some reason -

@maiyannah the database should get set up by install_cli.php in the script -
