Needed more proof the age of personal software is here? I got this Xteink X4 pocket e-reader. I flashed it with open source firmware. Then vibecoded a backend running on @val.town that pulls `toread` tagged articles from @kipclip.com and converts them to epub ...
Looks like a new OAuth permissions screen was released today. Looks much nicer! Hopefully we can request some more fine grained permissions now as well..
Huge amounts of capital were raised to buy Sulaco, a successor to Nostromo (the Mac mini on top). Bought second hand from a friendly older couple this Mac Studio will soon come online on @cocore.dev to provide inference not from the moon but from a humble suburb in the Netherlands.
attic.photos version 1.0.0-beta.7 is out and it's the most advanced attic yet! 😇 seriously though this 'backup from photos app' rabbit hole goes deeper than I thought and has me making algos dealing with specific apple backend congestion issues and other shenanigans. It's very robust by now though!
#atprotoideas a Claude bot that takes Bsky posts that start with “someone should make..” and then just makes it and publishes the url to Bsky
Introducing kipclip.com, the friendliest way to save bookmarks on atproto 🐔 This first version works on the web and features a simple bookmarklet (for desktop) or iOS shortcut or Android sharesheet option, once you save it to your homescreen (for mobile). Uses the community lexicon for bookmarks!
Been wanting to do this for a while now. My personal site tijs.org now uses #atproto records to show up to date posts from @leaflet.pub, check-ins from @dropanchor.app and book updates from @bookhive.buzz. Served straight from the PDS. This is own your data in action and I'm here for it 😛
... Then vibecoded an updated version of the e-reader firmware that supports articles and a new Sync Articles file transfer that pulls in the articles from my backend. And now I can read any article I bookmark with kipclip on my e-ink device. I did that this morning. I can use it right now.
Nu retail het zwaar heeft van online concurrentie zou je denken dat het zelfs voor investeerders beter uitkomt om die appartementen weer woonklaar te maken (en de etalages wat kleiner). Zorgt ook voor een leefbaarder centrum in veel steden als het centrum niet een spookstad word na sluitingstijd
Holy moly that just... worked? I just moved my account to my self hosted EU based PDS on a low-end box with pdsmoover.com and it seems fine? I am now a hamster.farm native 🐹
Attic – my cli app to backup your iCloud Photos to any s3 compatible storage service (in the EU for instance) – also got an update with some quality of life and TUI improvements. Brew install and other details here: attic.photos
I wrote up a high level overview of how i did the new OAuth flow for @dropanchor.app, hope it helps someone figure this stuff out quicker than i did.
I've extracted the generic atproto/oauth code from @dropanchor.app into a new standalone SPM package that any iOS app could use to do OAuth (BFF re-use backend cookies style) and basic atproto like dealing with facets. I plan to use this for the upcoming @kipclip.com

And running a security company literally named after a group of fellas known for political assassinations also seems a bit on the nose en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praetor...
I've updated the OAuth permission scopes for @dropanchor.app to only ask for permissions to write blobs and Anchor specific lexicon, plus we need permission to read/delete community address lexicon for a while until all checkins are migrated to the new checkin lexicon (migration happens on login)
Never mind already found a source. That’s fucked up, also great way to kill any goodwill they might have had www.404media.co/lapd-publish...
Had to run out of the conference venue with my beer in just a sweater but I can now say I actually saw northern lights for real though 😎
Ok I’m reaaally curious about the story on this tank 300 (yeah that’s the actual model name) from Great Wall motors with Guangzhou plates charging in suburban Netherlands
Did you know atproto oauth also works with cli tools? First encountered this with skyboard.dev using the skyboard cli with login will open an oauth page and drop you back in the cli with a session. This opens up super interesting use cases for tools using your own pds backed data.
Really happy this one landed. Bookhive is becoming very nice to use these days 🎉
Oh! How cool would it be to have a ‘recommended artists’ feed showing you artists posts on Bsky based on the music you listen to fetched from your teal.fm records #atprotoideas
