#
jeremycherfas TIL there is such a thing as a Lego table.
#
Zegnat You should go to more car dealerships ;) They used to have those in every single one I remember going to, in the kids corner
#
jeremycherfas But my mother no longer drives.

jackjamieson Just got dinged with a mod_security error using the IndieAuth plugin on my WordPress site. Talking with Bluehost tech support now
#
[tonz] [jackjamieson] I had that too, had something to do with auth headers with php as apache module and as fastcgi, in my case
#
jackjamieson [tonz], I had a issues with auth headers in past too and fixed them in my .htaccess - bit frustrating
#
jackjamieson Tech support seems responsive though, so hopefully I'll get it resolved shortly

[timothy_chamber Hi everyone: I was considering creating a #Mastodon instance just devoted to the #Openweb and #indieweb writ large. Here was my idea posted there. Do folks think that would be a helpful setting for public discussions? Here was my post on Mastodon asking what the tech community there thought....

#
[jgmac1106] timchambers if you want to build a fork that supported webmentions I would 100% be excited
wolftune and [KevinMarks] joined the channel
#
[KevinMarks] that would be great. also reenable websub
#
aaronpk [timothy_chambers] Mastodon isn't really a forum, so even though some people create instances for specific communities, it's more about creating that instance for the governance of the specific community than to have a place to talk. I know myself and at least a few others have no interest in maintaining a separate account somewhere, but would happily join conversations from our own websites using bridgy

#
[snarfed] ^ agreed. indieweb's key point is that we use our own personal web sites for public discussions!
[fluffy] joined the channel
#
[jgmac1106] so basically a websub chat room where we all posting quips from our own websites as notes,
#
[snarfed] [timothy_chambers] do you have a personal web site? http://www.timothychambers.net/ doesn't seem to have anything
#
[jgmac1106] and we get each others replies as webmentions
#
[jgmac1106] https://timothychambers.net/

#
[jgmac1106] no wwww
#
[jgmac1106] www
#
[snarfed] aha thx [jgmac1106]. [timothy_chambers] you'll probably want to update the web site link on your mastodon profile, it's broken since it has the www
[tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek] more importantly, be sure your www. subdomain redirects to your main domain
#
[tantek] so such errors are more forgiving
wolftune, kensp, [miklb], [eddie], [grantcodes], [pfefferle], Hory and [tonz] joined the channel
#
[tonz] I want to have both: be able to post and receive responses directly from my site as a Mastodon account, as well as post separately there. This because not all of my Mastodon stream is fully public, most of it is follower only (similarly for my private Twitter account, and my FB account). So having my blog be my ActivityPub stream isn’t enough, until/unless my blog is able to do audience specific postings.
#
[snarfed] sounds like good motivation for more work on private posts!
