aaronpk is dreading creating the 2017-08-02 HWC page
#
Loqi aaronpk: tantek left you a message 2 days, 1 hour ago: I'm seeing an error (on the upload page) when uploading a cropped screenshot from my iPod to the wiki: "File extension does not match MIME type." Can you try uploading a screenshot from your iPhone and see if that works?
#
tantek nm
#
aaronpk oh yeah i saw that in the logs
#
tantek it's iOS being dumb about cropping screenshots (it turns them into JPEGs without renaming the file extension :P)
#
aaronpk that's...interesting
#
tantek = don't use Photos app to crop PNGs
#
Zegnat I will create the HWC pages aaronpk, I just have been away from keys a lot :( Same reason there isn’t a PoC login.indieweb.org yet
#
tantek but then what app should I use that isn't some random adware/malware for something as simple as cropping PNGs
#
tantek Zegnat: I can knock out 2017-08-02
#
aaronpk i use Aviary for image editing on iOS, but i haven't actually confirmed whether it properly saves png/jpg!
#
Zegnat If anyone needs the page, add it, tantek. I mostly feel bad saying I was going to do it and then ending up not getting to it
#
Zegnat IRC is fine on phone, but I am not messing with the event pages on phone wiki
#
tantek Zegnat, don't feel bad, just ask for help. no shame. we should all ask for help whenever
#
aaronpk just tested. Aviary saves it as a jpg and does change the file extension
#
aaronpk would have preferred it save it as a png but at least it isn't broken like Photos
#
tantek see what happened to DON'T JPEG A PNG
#
tantek aaronpk - oic
#
tantek 2017-08-02 vs 2017-08-09. piece of cake
#
tantek Zegnat, get to 2017-08-09 and 2017-08-23 when you have a chance
#
aaronpk is posting HWCPDX on facebook
#
tantek 2017-08-02 is special case
#

#
Zegnat I want to be able to post about the next Virtual HWC during this week’s Virtual HWC. So I am required to get the event pages up before then ;)
#
tantek yes
#
tantek and might as well do the whole month while at it
#
Zegnat Yep, as all those pages will be the same.
#
Zegnat I’ll see if I can reach jkphl and adactio on Twitter at that time too, to see if they are aware of any Brighton/Nürnberg dates
#
Zegnat But now, off for bed. Good night all!
#
tantek Zegnat sorta
#
tantek there's the first wednesday of the month, which sometimes coincides with the first biweekly wednesday of the month, then the second biweekly wednesday of the month, and sometimes the 3rd biweekly wednesday of the month
#
tantek good night!
#
Loqi sweet dreams
#
gRegorLove FYI, you can exclude Bellingham from pages, or list them as "on hiatus". I'm updating /HWC now.
#
gRegorLove I'm looking to move around September/October and there's not much interest, especially during the summer. I may still have one meetup in August, though.

sebsel :(
#
sebsel Doing my best!
#
tantek sebsel++ I know! It's worth documenting (and your follow-up too)
#
Loqi sebsel has 2 karma in this channel (36 overall)
#
sknebel sebsel++ and at least you put your stuff out there, that's better than... well, me for instance :P
#
Loqi sebsel has 3 karma in this channel (37 overall)
#
tantek sebsel: updated with your follow-up inline: https://indieweb.org/Kirby#See_Also
#
sebsel :)
#
sebsel I will update once I have something to launch.
#
sebsel That's another thing about IndieWeb... I am a better developer than two years ago when I first heard about it.
#
sebsel For /why : you learn a lot :D
#
tantek especially when focused on building things to get working for yourself!
#
sebsel That's right! Thanks to building it for myself, I now know a lot more about Webmention and IndieAuth. Enough to feel (somewhat) comfortable enough to put out a plugin that says "hey, I do this for you", instead of a fork that says "hm, I use it myself, but maybe it breaks sometimes and yeah..."
#
gRegorLove sebsel++ keep up the good work :)

tantek gute nacht
