Loqi [Event Updated] tracydurnell.com updated "Oct 9, 2021 9:00am IndieWeb Create Day" changed cover_image "added header graphic" https://events.indieweb.org/event/285/history/919/diff
# 
[tantek] ok this is confusing, viewing the latest revision from the history page https://events.indieweb.org/event/285/history/919
# 
aaronpk once you're in the "revision history" section https://events.indieweb.org/event/285/history you're looking at snapshots. but that's also why those URLs are all `/event/X/...` rather than the URLs with the event dates and slug

capjamesg[d] tracydurnell++ for the excellent diagram.
# capjamesg[d] I had no idea that there was a revision history on the events page.
# capjamesg[d] [tantek] that is funny 🙂

@jodsclass It's kinda sad that the FB outage didn't last longer. It is a good way to encourage people to go down the @indiewebcamp route and self-host again. My last serious outage of websites/email/dns/hosted content was around 4 years ago & only for 3 mins for a reboot. (twitter.com/_/status/1445307415348588546)

@voxpelli ↩️ Then do http://indieweb.org / @indiewebcamp / start blogging (twitter.com/_/status/1445310900508971010)

@RobbiNespu ↩️ Saya dah cuba, tapi “system error”, saya dah hubungi careline 03-2714 8888 tapi mereka suruh saya pergi ke link yang sama juga iaitu https://customerservice.touchngo.com.my/erefund/Step1.aspx .
Mohon selesaikan isu ini. (https://robbinespu.gitlab.io/indieweb/2021-10-05-1533-reply-tweet-tng-3/) (twitter.com/_/status/1445311054934913024)

@Cambridgeport90 Hey @nathansmith7713, was just looking at the features of LunaRSS... have you perused the #micropub #indieweb spec yet? basically would allow Luna to be interactive provided the site you were replying to had features enabled. (twitter.com/_/status/1445358303656116224)

@zachleat ↩️ I want to build an IndieWeb service for this. Enter a domain and it gives you all of their socials
BUT WHO HAS THE TIME (twitter.com/_/status/1445393745202098192)
# 
@capjamesg ↩️ I sort of support this on IndieWeb Search:
https://indieweb-search.jamesg.blog/results?query=jamesg.blog+social
The search engine looks for all rel=me links (commonly used in the #IndieWeb to indicate social profiles) on a home page and returns them. (twitter.com/_/status/1445395949585633285)

# @capjamesg ↩️ Everything is open-sourced. It's still a very early project though but I try my best to respond to issues when they come up. https://github.com/capjamesg/indieweb-search (twitter.com/_/status/1445401613515071492)
# [tantek] FYI folks (especially aaronpk, in case Loqi is having problems with # social) W3C IRC is down https://status.w3.org/incidents/lfwjx05yvldr
# [tantek] tracydurnell++ again for the beautiful Create Day image! Great timing too, just in time for this early morning's monthly Redecentralize Digest which links to the Create Day event! https://redecentralize.org/redigest/2021/09/

# 
tracydurnell[d] happy to help! 🙂
# capjamesg[d] I have your "Getting More Women Involved in the IndieWeb" on my reading list.
# capjamesg[d] I'm excited to read it tracydurnell 🙂
# capjamesg[d] Will do! I should have time in an hour.
# capjamesg[d] tracydurnell++
# capjamesg[d] I just read your article. You raised many interesting questions.
# capjamesg[d] This is definitely something I have been thinking about because the discussions we have would benefit from as many diverse perspectives as possible.
# capjamesg[d] Everyone has different ways of thinking about things like social media, website design, standards implementations, etc. so the more people we can get involved across the board, the better.
# capjamesg[d] I'd love to see something like the Apprentice system for HWC where we invite all attendees to bring someone along who might be interested in a site (if they know anyone) and have a discussion about the basics of setting up a site.
# capjamesg[d] I don't have a solution to the issue but would love to brainstorm on what we can do better to reach out to more people / make sure we resonate with as diverse an audience as we can.
# capjamesg[d] tracydurnell++
# capjamesg[d] Loqi?
# capjamesg[d] Ah, I see. Thanks!
# 
@tomcritchlow ↩️ Hmm. Some of this could be achieved in a kind of "feed" or "directory" view. Something like a tag page on indieweb: https://indieweb.xyz/en/books (twitter.com/_/status/1445448784876486674)
# Loqi An apprentice, in the context of the indieweb, is an IndieWebCamp participant who has not yet setup a personal domain with IndieAuth, but is passionate about owning their identity & data on the web and dedicated to doing so, with the help of a creator https://indieweb.org/apprentice
# capjamesg[d] [tantek] I learned about Apprentices from a talk of yours...
# capjamesg[d] I'd need to rack my brains about someone to invite but I'm sure I could find someone willing to join to chat about websites.
# capjamesg[d] I'd love to get people's perspectives on their exact issues with social media and introduce them to things they can do to take control over their data.
# capjamesg[d] I'll not be able to do this at next week's Europe HWC sadly as I am going on holiday (yay!). But I'll keep this in mind for the next one I attend.

# tracydurnell[d] capjamesg[d]: interesting idea! Haha I just invited a (male 🤷♀️) friend to come to Create Day because he mentioned he's got a website idea he wants to start, but he hasn't responded yet 😉
# capjamesg[d] Love it tracydurnell.
# tracydurnell[d] I like your thought of brainstorming more too 🙂
# [tantek] On another topic, thoughts on adding this cartoon as the "main" image for the /social_media page? https://twitter.com/cartoonmovement/status/1445459790738583557 or is it too BDSM-shaming?
# 
@cartoonmovement The massive impact of the 6-hour Facebook disruption begs the question: how dependent have we become on social media?

# tracydurnell[d] potentially we informally "poll" friends who we think might be in the tech savvy range to run their own website and find out what's holding them back
# tracydurnell[d] I have a bunch of friends who work at MS who seem to have no interest in having their own websites, which I find fascinating but also I haven't ever asked them about it 🤔
# tracydurnell[d] yeah I like that thought
# tracydurnell[d] my friends were most upset about WhatsApp (which I've been trying to talk them into abandoning for a while anyway 🙄)
# tracydurnell[d] what do you need? like for intros and stuff?
# tracydurnell[d] I'm planning to show up at 9 though I may be bleary-eyed 😉 so happy to pitch in / talk / whatever you need 🙂
# tracydurnell[d] OK I will plan to lead chatting / intros at the start of the day, and try to get some conversation going at lunchtime 🙂
# tracydurnell[d] I haven't forgotten about picking a date for a Friday hangout event, still contemplating my own schedule for October 😉
# tracydurnell[d] would I just set up a new event on the events site, or post on the wiki events page with a date?
# capjamesg[d] Friday hangout?
# tracydurnell[d] I proposed the idea of a non-website-related hangout to get to know other IndieWebbers outside of web opinions, and maybe attract a different crowd than usual
# tracydurnell[d] framing it as something like a Craft Night, so like a create day but more casual?
# tracydurnell[d] that's what someone said!
# capjamesg[d] Love it!
# tracydurnell[d] ok all the enthusiasm is making me think I need to pick a date and get it on the calendar 😄
# aaronpk i already did it with the oauth event site! https://twitter.com/oauth_2/status/1444040682344091649

# tracydurnell[d] handy!
# tracydurnell[d] for IRL event promo I do a few weeks out, a reminder at one week, and a couple days before
# capjamesg[d] +1
# tracydurnell[d] but I don't have to worry about trolls showing up to my recycling events 😉
# tracydurnell[d] mostly the people who get mad at us are people who want *more* recycling events 🤷♀️
# tracydurnell[d] the anti-recycling folks don't usually bother to call
# tracydurnell[d] as long as they're not complaining to me, I'm happy 🙂
# tracydurnell[d] that's dedication!
# capjamesg[d] I wrote a blog post series on how I did that.
# tracydurnell[d] rock on!
# capjamesg[d] I had to disconnect it though because my plant recently got some unwanted visitors (pests) and I didn’t want them going on the wires.
# tracydurnell[d] capjamesg[d]: bummer!
# capjamesg[d] I have heard Neem oil helps.
# tracydurnell[d] are the three lines for three plants / beds?
# capjamesg[d] Same plant but different areas.
# capjamesg[d] The kit I bought recommended one sensor per plant but I only have one plant.
# tracydurnell[d] interesting there's a good bit of variability in one pot!
# capjamesg[d] The bugs are really small. Almost hard to see. I could leave the plant outside.
# tracydurnell[d] what unit is moisture level measured in? is that like mL or grams of water? or some special moisture index?
# capjamesg[d] The tutorial starts here if anyone is interested: https://jamesg.blog/2021/09/07/plant-monitor-dashboard-part-1
# capjamesg[d] tracydurnell Good question!
# tracydurnell[d] maybe this would enable me to not kill every plant I buy 🤔
# capjamesg[d] I have done a lot of work with the sensor and I don’t have a good answer.
# tracydurnell[d] does it send you a ping when it's too dry? 😉
# capjamesg[d] The moisture sensor uses Hz or something for measuring.
# Loqi [James] How to make a plant monitor dashboard: Part I https://jamesg.blog/assets/plant_raspberry_pi.jpeg
# capjamesg[d] Yeah 🙂
# capjamesg[d] I have an IFTTT webhook set up for that.
# tracydurnell[d] that sounds very intriguing 🙂
# capjamesg[d] The tutorials document the web interface and chart making and such.
# capjamesg[d] Anyway, sorry to change the subject so much haha 😂
# tracydurnell[d] haha, be careful about getting me going on plants, even though I kill them all I love em!
# capjamesg[d] I love them too!
# tracydurnell[d] your tutorial is great, it looks like something I could follow along with!
# capjamesg[d] Why thank you!
