[tantek] haha I feel like we have a wiki page about that struggle (tinkering with your blog design/code/server rather than actually blogging)

[tantek] what is yakshaving
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "yakshaving" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "yakshaving is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek] yakshaving is /yak_shaving
#
Loqi ok

@timorainio What we talk about when we're talking about "Webmentions" #Digitalisaatio #Digitalization https://ift.tt/WG2IYtn "" (twitter.com/_/status/1549667322981482499)
#
@_alivealife_ ...I apparently have installed webmentions on my blog. too bad I don't think any mutuals have blogs and can help me… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1548790745624100864 (twitter.com/_/status/1548790745624100864)

[tantek] capjamesg, summarized the community experience with wiki links for you: https://indieweb.org/RDF#FOAF
#
jacky just added some links to that region, was curious about where LRDD lived

#
[manton] Hello everyone! I’ve been moving forward with building a new API that will help ease away from relying on Foursquare. Working on it with Jon Hays (jonhays.me, [cheesemaker]). Still early days but I think it’s promising.
#
[manton] We’re calling it Meridian. Some basic info up at a new site: https://latl.ong/ 🙂

#
IWDiscordGateway <person> Does anyone here use Telegraph to send pingbacks and webmentions?
#
IWDiscordGateway <person> Sending webmentions works fine, but I notice that I get an unspecified error any time I try to send a pingback
#
IWDiscordGateway <person> And it looks like I'm not alone in that: https://mastodon.social/@person72443/108677404526665370
#
Loqi [person] @m2m I saw your post about using Telegraph to send webmentions. Have you also used it to send pingbacks successfully? I tried earlier today and got successes for all the webmentions, but errors for all the pingbacks I tried to send.
#
IWDiscordGateway <person> @aaronpk if you have time, would appreciate your insights here
#
IWDiscordGateway <person> I'll try to pull a screenshot but it doesn't give me an http status code or any error message, it just says "error"

[tantek] what is Meridian

#
sknebel "Non-profit organizations (Proof of non-profit status required)" huh
jacky and AramZS_ joined the channel
#
[manton] Interesting, I had never seen that requirement! Hope that doesn’t cause a problem later.
#
sknebel https://thenew.org/org-people/about-pir/policies/ngo-and-ong-registration-policy/
#
[manton] I think this project does roughly comply with those guidelines, but not the “name selection policy”. Just a fun domain name.
#
[manton] I’ve never heard of a domain name being “audited” and revoked before, so we’ll see.
#
sknebel various TLDs have requirements to qualify (usually geographically though)
#
[manton] I remember when I registered manton.org (1996!), the network administrator who helped me register it said it might not be approved because it wasn’t a real “organization”. This sounds kind of similar.
#
[manton] Maybe to comply I’ll have to come up with a real non-profit with the acronym LATL so that latl.ong still works. 🙂
#
gRegor Latitude And The Longitude :)
#
gRegor inception
#
gRegor [manton]++ very cool
#
Loqi [manton] has 21 karma in this channel over the last year (23 in all channels)
#
[manton] [Gregor] Perfect.
#
[tantek] sounds like a good band name too
#
[tantek] though I might pluralize Longitudes 🙂
#
[manton] Haha, nice. I like it.
#
sknebel I dont think org ever had an actual requirement
#
[tantek] IIRC the "requirements" for com, net, org were never enforced
#
[tantek] gov and edu were harder
#
sknebel and still are. there's only one or two commercial .edu registrants
#
[manton] There are so many TLDs now, it’s so out of control and I kind of love it. I spent hours going through them last week.
#
gRegor https://domainr.com is fun for finding some of those, gives you variations based on the word you enter
#
[manton] One that was new to me was .i.ng. Don’t have a use for it right now but I can see a lot of possible -ing names.
#
[manton] [Gregor] That is really cool. It even gives you potential domain + path matches.
#
[tantek] domainr++ is my preferred lookup service too
#
Loqi domainr has 1 karma over the last year
#
sknebel I'm bit distrustful of all the fancy new ones. (and cheap ;))
#
[tantek] reasonable skepticism
