@localtoast Which one do I need for server to server? :/

@bug @Fidgetcetera Huh, wierd. Why go to all the trouble to have fancy rainbow gradient animations in the admin tab where hardly anyone will see them? :/

@Fidgetcetera Do other cws show up like that? :/

@Fidgetcetera ... That looks like somebody managed to get some custom styling applied somehow. :/

@localtoast Hmm. So do you know what I need for Masto? Will OAuth work, or do I need to use http signatures...? :/

@Dekken Looking through it's methods, it looks like I can get by with just an RSA key, which is much easier. :/

@mangeurdenuage Distant Dog would make a pretty good codename. :/

On another note, does this require that I get my site set up with ssl keys and all that? Like, from Let's Encrypt, or some such? :/

@riking@social.wxcafe.Hmm, so I should write it myself? Not just use an off the shelf npm or meteor package? :/

Alright, so I'm working on http signatures and I need to figure out key management. Any suggestions for best practices? I've never really worked with encryption, though I have at least a vague familiarity with the basic principles. :/

@localtoast Hmm. Do you have any idea how all this relates to OAuth? Are they the same thing, or are they completely different...? :/

Alright, got both mastodon and agora running locally, testing federation between them. It looks like I am getting 401: Request not signed errors. So It seems I do need HTTP signatures for server to server federation. Alright, let's do it. :/

Hmm. I dunno what I did, but for some reason Agora lags suuuuuuuper hard when I start it locally after clearing the database, and force it to recreate the default user and moderator. I think it's the fact that it has to create their inboxes and outboxes and following/follower lists and all that? Still kinda weird though. :/

@rdh Technically it would be commie propaganda. :P

Or, even if you don't want to make demands, just letting me know what you enjoy would be nice. :P

Hmm. Is there anything that I post that you'd like to see more of? Technical discussion, songs, fiction, philosophy, etc, etc? If you've been hoping I'd write more on a subject, now's the time to say so. :P

Just finished doing seven repetitions of this: https://darebee.com/programs/athenas-playbook.html?showall=&start=13

Not the most amazing workout in the world, but I enjoyed it. I've been following the exercises off "Athena's Playbook" from Darebee for a while now, and I definitely feel healthier and happier for them. If you're looking for some exercise, trying picking one up. :/

#Nowplaying The Dead Flag Blues, by Godspeed You! Black Emperor

The skyline was beautiful on fire
All twisted metal stretching upwards
Everything washed in a thin orange haze

I said: "kiss me, you're beautiful -
These are truly the last days"
