to2ds A personal website feels more like a journey than a destination.

[David_Peach] 100% this. I've forked [pfefferle]'s autonomie and am slowly making alterations. Personal websites really are the best.

#
to2ds [Ana_R] - Love the dream journaling suggestion.
#
[contact898] thank you both for all the ideas!!
#
capjamesg You are welcome!
#
[contact898] Now I'll sort them by categories and then I can post
#
capjamesg to2ds My dreams are almost always scary 😢
#
to2ds Sorry to hear that 🙁
#
capjamesg I need to read on how to have fun dreams 😂
#
capjamesg I think if you eat cheese before bed you dream more.
#
capjamesg Maybe I need to eat more cheese.
#
capjamesg (Or maybe I'm just trying to shoe-horn a way into eating more cheese in my life.)_
#
to2ds I journal most and post the extraordinary ones to my website.
#
[contact898] ohhh maybe that's why i have such vivid dreams
#
[contact898] it's because i'm french…
#
to2ds Never thought dreams could be lactose intolerant 😄

#
jacky interesting: an AP-powered wiki? https://ibis.wiki/article/Announcing_Ibis,_the_federated_Wikipedia_Alternative@ibis.wiki
#
sknebel somehow I think "a wikipedia alternative" is the wrong place to start with federated wikis
#
[snarfed] yeah that whole project seems a bit misguided
jacky joined the channel
#
aaronpk just because you can, doesn't mean you should
bterry, geoffo and to2ds joined the channel
#
to2ds Identifying things that shouldn't be AP'd sounds like fun.
#
to2ds It goes without saying, but medical records should probably not be AP'd.
#
[contact898] i'd really rather have a http://fandom.com alternative, which is the exact same thing but without wikipedia's history and rigor and community
#
capjamesg I wonder what other 100 {thing} lists could be written.
#
[contact898] so, so many
#
[contact898] 100 photos / images
#
[contact898] 100 reasons to blog
#
[contact898] 100 webmentions to send
#
[contact898] 100 personal web-related events you could attend
[Murray] joined the channel
#
[Murray] I mean, go long enough and you can do: 100 lists covering 100 x to y 😉
#
[tantek] What is 100 days
#
Loqi 💯 A 100 days project in the IndieWeb community is representative of challenges to do or make something and post about it on your own site with some regularity (every day) and/or total completion number (like 100 posts) over a period of time like that same number of days or within a (calendar) year https://indieweb.org/100_days
#
[tantek] capjamesg [contact898] [Murray] see the Brainstorming lists there ^

[jeremycherfas] I don’t know about cheese, but 1mg of melatonin a night offers me the most vivid dreams.

#
to2ds Ok. This 100 days or 100 things stuff is compelling. Going to do 100 days of Haiku, though probably without the typical nature themes, etc.

#
capjamesg It is fun, right?
#
[contact898] it sounds awesome!
jmjl joined the channel
#
[tantek] if I ever take a leave/sabbatical from work, I think I may attempt the meta of 100 days of 100 days idea. Though I feel I'd have to do A LOT of tooling improvements to get efficient enough at the necessary actions to hit the peak (100 things in a day on your 100th day of the meta 100 days project).

#
redblobgames 100 days of cheese sounds appealing
[bjoern] joined the channel
#
[tantek] I don't think I could find 100 different vegan cheeses

#
[contact898] the doctor said I should avoid dairy for a few weeks. not only am I injured but I can't even eat cheese... my life is hell
#
[contact898] (it's not true, it's Ramadan, the best time to not eat cheese because there are a billion delicious things to eat that you can't easily find otherwise)
btrem and [Fran] joined the channel
#
btrem I added the h-entry logo from https://indieweb.org/h-entry to the SuperTinyIcons repo: https://github.com/edent/SuperTinyIcons/pull/790. Slightly modified to make it super tiny. ;-)
#
[tantek] btrem++ nice work! can you add the same for h-card, h-feed, h-event ?
#
Loqi btrem has 2 karma in this channel over the last year (6 in all channels)
#
[tantek] also feel free to drop the pull request URLs for those into the #indieweb-meta channel to get some quick positive reviews which can help nudge such things along
#
btrem Probably. I'll ask the repo owner if he wants those.
#
[tantek] that's edent who was at IWC Brighton this past weekend so I'm quite certain he'd be happy to have them!
#
btrem ? You mean people here can review a repo they don't own? (Apparently still unclear on some aspects of GH.)
#
[tantek] btrem it depends on the permissions for the specific repo, but by default yes, anyone can review PRs on any repo by default
#
btrem I actually didn't know there was a logo for h-entry until I stumbled on it in the Indieweb wiki. And until you mentioned it just now, I didn't know there were logs for h-card etc.
#
Loqi hey [tantek], btrem: can you move the tech talk (Microformats) to #indieweb-dev to keep this channel more inclusive and inviting?
#
btrem Ah, it's a small world. I didn't know edent had a presence in the indieweb community.
#
btrem And Loqi, I think you're being a bit too strict. We're not discussing Microformats per se, but rather logos for general use. :-p
geoffo joined the channel
#
[tantek] yes yes Loqi, microformats vocabularies, pull requests are better for #indieweb-dev
#
[tantek] btrem, I think my use of the h-* vocabulary names triggered Loqi
#
btrem Yes. And also, pull requests, yeah. I'll concede that part. :)
#
btrem Loqi is triggered! :-D
#
btrem hahaha
#
Loqi hehe
#
btrem So, do I move to dev? Or microformats? Because I have one more question: [Tantek] is there some reason that the microformats logos are on the indieweb wiki but not on the microformats wiki? That's why I didn't know about them. Happy to go wherever.
#
[tantek] btrem, now that's a #indieweb-meta!) and haven't been manually propagated to the microformats site
#
[tantek] gives Loqi an ounce of self-deprecating humor
#
Loqi throws the ounce of self-deprecating humor
#
btrem :-D
#
[tantek] figures
#
btrem Loqi, you kill me sometimes.
#
btrem ++ to whoever programmed that response.

claudinec Hello everyone! long-time lurker etc. I built my first website in the 1990s and am really encouraged to see a movement to take back ownership of our online identity. I've been binging on indieweb posts lately and maybe it's time to think about contributing somehow.
#
capjamesg Welcome, claudinec!
#
capjamesg Do you have a personal website?
#
claudinec Yes, though I've spent more time in the last few months tinkering with the plumbing instead of finishing any of many draft posts. https://www.claudinec.net/
#
Loqi [preview] Claudine Chionh
#
[tantek] welcome to the tinkering club claudinec! you may now enter the #indieweb-dev channel for any and all plumbing discussions
#
claudinec Thanks!
#
capjamesg You are an archivist!
#
capjamesg Amazing!
#
claudinec Very much in the early learning stage. I graduated only two years ago and currently spend more time managing volunteers than doing actual archiving.
#
capjamesg I like your website, too.
#
capjamesg My website is jamesg.blog.
#
capjamesg I am not an archivist, but I love all things information architecture 😄
#
claudinec Thank you I've been following your blog for a while!
#
capjamesg Why thank you!
