This kinda lines up with another quiet hot take I have: I'm not very fond of bridges between networks like ActivityPub, Bluesky, Nostr, etc. Maybe on a user-by-user utility basis. But, as a network-wide thing, there's too much context collapse.

Like, sure, from a tech lens they're just protocols carrying very similar data. But, from a user lens, they're communities and cultures, even if accidental and implicit.

Hot take: Defederation is feature, not a bug. Not everyone needs to talk to everyone all the time.

The only common task I can't do in Windows 98SE is browse the modern Web (not even with Retrozilla).

The only common task I can't do in FreeDOS (updated to 1.4 just 3 months ago) is browse the modern Web.

Why do I get the feeling this is a failing of the modern Web?

local newspaper has some CSS to make the text really small if you're not logged in and/or you've hit your article limit. but it doesn't cover <a> tags apparently, so articles with links make interesting erasure poetry

Have you seen this new application? It's written in N. It literally uses Cerium. It's on Squernix with Wine. It's literally written with Zark. You can probably install it with Woo. Dude it's built on Birdnest. It's a Garkle exclusive. It's for Borp. You can run it on Borp. You can boot up Borp and run it. Log onto Borp right now. Switch to Borp. Dive into Borp. You can Borp it. It runs on Borp. Borp runs it for you. Borp runs it for you.

Between 2 and 4 long banker's boxes of classic-era Apple Developer documentation.

I'd rather they found a home than end up in a dumpster, but, home or not, they’re gone in 7 days.

Please share with any nostalgic nerds you know.

Pickup will be next weekend and it’s a ‘can't be picky’ winner takes ALL free deal.

Whole pile and you rehome what you don't want.
