Goofed Home

@serapath This sounds great, even if a bit above my head! I'm not too sure how helpful I can be here, but perhaps you might have luck reaching out to Darius again?

He's pretty active on his Mastodon server, should be fairly easy to get in touch and get some useful pointers from him directly.

Kinda looking for advice or maybe an unethical tip or something.

[America] I need to see a specialist, but they need me to get a referral. I have an appointment scheduled with a primary care doc, but it’s not until fucking July.

The urgent care here has turned me away because they (and I quote) “don’t deal with conditions that have been ongoing for more than a week or two.”

I don’t know if I can get a referral from an ER, but I really would rather not go that route and waste their time and mine.

So… What would you do? What should I do? Anyone willing to give me a referral?

I guess for a little more info, I am positive I need to see this specialist. I’ve had this disease for almost ten years and I’m currently being seen by the most unavailable and uncaring VA guy there is. VA won’t give me a referral to an outside specialist because it costs money and they think they have it covered. But that doc isn’t listening to me and the last few months have been absolute hell trying to deal with some issues this has created.

Try calling a couple places that are geared towards crisis treatment. Some have primary care in house.

Does it work that way in the US ??🤔🤔🤔

Anyways, I never visit a doctor.

Meeting minutes from the last Social Web Working Group call, which covered topics like discovery, groups, trust and safety, and more.

Reminder that the fediverse is a "group project" and really does take a village.

Care to join in and help?

Every season is great. But non UK versions are very hit or miss. NZ is the most acceptable alternative.

I constantly waffle between the New Zealand and Austraila versions as my number 2.

Jeremy Wells didnt work for me the first season or 2, but has grown into the role.

There have been an influx of them in my RSS feeds, I wonder if there’s been a You Tube or Tick Tock video that went viral about Nix some time earlier.

Thanks for this! That’s kinda what it sounded like. I’m going to have to give this a try this weekend.

I’ve never seen legal technicalities in a contract actually harm the business end of the contract before. Hopefully Netflix doesn’t have enough money to keep it that way.

Feel free to have a look at

Holy shit watch it. Everything I said is true, but it’s super worth it. I’m not going to ruin it.

I’m watching shoresy and letterkenny atm and I fucking love them

Catodon is a new Sharkey/Misskey fork.

List of servers (pretty small): https://catodon.fediverse.observer/list

Well, for me it is different from twitter/mastodon because there is a reasonable post lenght restriction 5000 characters, and misskey is one of the best UI of the fediverse. So it is better, there is a good balance between thread/microblog.

Once they support well thread, i will probably crosspost lot content from them here. News, scientifics, political…and it will ease up my work as a community animator. I can relay content for news but that’s lot work.

For me, here, we miss 2 things :

• a rss reader
• microblog support

@_elena @lumiworx I for one am not one of those people. For me it's ActivityPub only.

@_elena @Gargron @lumiworx

I am also, but maybe in a different way.

As someone who helped create ActivityPub and works every day to promote its use, I absolutely believe that everyone should make and use ActivityPub-native software. At SWF, we only do ActivityPub projects.

But if someone chooses to build on ATProto, and to make their software and accounts bridgeable so we can stay connected, that's infinitely better than being cut off entirely.

@_elena @Gargron @lumiworx

I mentioned elsewhere that I think supporting the openness of the Atmosphere is important for whatever comes next there. Whether BlueSky thrive or don't survive, the more the ATproto stack is standardized and independent, the better it is for the Fediverse.

@slothrop@chaos.social @_elena@mastodon.social @lumiworx@mastodon.social Excellent way to put it for sure.

Centralization is easy. You control it all. It's not good for people that want innovation and choice.

Decentralization brings freedom, innovation, choice, but offers a lot of technical roadblocks.

I just want choice. I can choose what's best for my family. I don't need Tim Apple, or whoever to tell me what's good for us, while trapping us into a fish bowl and making us work for our food.
