Hey everyone if you demonstrated yesterday, please help by filling out https://indieweb.org/2024/D%C3%BCsseldorf/Demos
#
[tantek]
I took some rough notes in chat yesterday which tried to capture the order of demos as well if folks can help out with at least stubbing the section headings of people in order: https://chat.indieweb.org/meta/2024-05-12#t1715521046123600

!tell aaronpk Meetable feature request: if there's no hero or banner photo of an event, can it show the first uploaded photo as the link preview image? E.g. on https://events.indieweb.org/lPSJYTuqCdL2
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

If anyone here is an administrator for IndieWeb Slack, it’d be lovely to be able to add our sites to our slack profile.

capjamesg, byJP looks like the iOS Slack app has no UI for admins to make changes :/
#
[byJP]
🤦‍♂️ I wouldn’t be surprised, Slack points folks to the admin web interface for almost everything. You might find something at https://indiewebcamp.slack.com/account/settings and in places linked from there?
#
[byJP]
(I’m still so sad that web apps are so hobbled on iOS, it means companies don’t invest in them, which makes people always opt for the apps… ad infinitum. ugh.)

byJP if you can find instructions for how to add a "website" field to a Slack, please add them to the /Slack page so we can encourage every Slack admin to do so

↩️ So https://slack.com/intl/en-gb/help/articles/212281478-Customise-member-profiles but — a somewhat embarrassing moment — my self-hosted IndieAuth provider (http://getindiekit.com) doesn’t support redirects to `urn:ietf:params:oauth:request_uri:<guid>`, as is needed by the http://indieweb.org wiki 😅
#
[byJP]
I’ll reach out with a feature request to IndieKit (and see if I can help add the feature), but I won’t be able to contribute to the wiki for a while!

↩️ Hooray! Turns out the `.beta17` release of IndieKit has already fixed this — I’ll add this link to the wiki now.

What is slop
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "slop" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "slop is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tantek]
slop is unwanted content generated by AI (like by an [[LLM]]), in contrast to authentic human created content like posts on IndieWeb sites that have disclaimed use of any generated AI for their content. See also [[spam]].

There was a word that didn't catch on 20 years ago for the word salad of spam that then got used as a kind of found or dadaist poetry: *flarf*. https://boingboing.net/2006/04/17/flarf-highfalutin-wo.html

not really the same thing but an odd cousin

There is a fine entry on wikipedia for Flarf poetry, which surprises me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flarf_poetry
#
[Joe_Crawford]
I appreciate that it links to Burroughs' Cut-up technique as well. I am a fan of found poetry.

"flarf" reminded me of one of my favorite tweets, so I decided to finally repost it on my site instead of finding it on twitter: https://gregorlove.com/2024/05/reposted-actioncookbook/
