@clerk.com Will you include AT Proto/Bluesky sign in integration with your service?

For the longest time I shied away from low level programming. I always found it intimidating. It turns out it isn’t any harder than other programming. It’s just that everything written about it assumes too much. So here’s my attempt at an intro to machine code jimmyhmiller.com/machine-code...

Rather than being resigned to a story of "company as a future adversary" (no judgement; plz read the article) we can utilize the framework of steward-ownership to reify our vision for "company as a future commons". blog.muni.town/company-as-c... This is how @roomy.chat will work as a company.

Marc Garneau, the first Canadian in space who went on to become a high-profile federal politician, has died at 76 years old.
"Don't be shy about trying. And failure is not that big a deal. You learn a lot. You pick yourself up and you go forward." — former astronaut, cabinet minister, and author of "Most Extraordinary Ride," Marc Garneau tonight at 8/11pm with @spaikin.bsky.social

My return to animation today, starting with Jordan Peterson. Not sure if I'll keep animating and/or keep doing my IRL videos. It's whatever inspires me. youtu.be/AXwbXcyuMgs
@sprk.so I run my account on my own PDS. Can I transfer my account to your PDS?

Candy-coated lies…enticing new users & keeping existing ones hooked. The tobacco & nicotine industries target people of all ages with products & designs tailored to different groups while deliberately preying on youth. Ahead of #WorldNoTobaccoDay 🚭, let's unmask the appeal 👉 bit.ly/NoTobacco2025
@germnetwork.com Can you also include @sprk.so in your beta as well?
Hello @guags.bsky.social ! You say in your bio: Sometimes I follow because a post caused me to LOL What caused you to follow me?
Thank you @saw6dev.bsky.social for your @bskycheck.com service! I'm trying to get CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) to verify it's members (Canadian citizens/residence). Made a thread about it: bsky.app/profile/tauh... What do you think the impact of this would be on trust on bsky?
🇨🇦 Canadians deserve real verification on Bluesky. In #Canada, CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) already verifies: 📍 Canadian residency 🪪 Government-issued ID 🌐 Ownership of a .ca domain That’s trust — not a pay-for-play checkmark. Let’s get everyday Canadians verified on Bluesky.👇
@bmann.ca Thank you for liking my post talking about how CIRA should verify members on Bluesky. Bluesky is now expanding its bluecheck system, what are your thoughts on the matter? I made a new thread with step by step instructions for other Canadians to follow. Criticism is welcome.

@legalgoose.bsky.social What's the minimum number of members required to sign a petition to have a non profit org respond? I'm trying to get bluechecks for Canadians who are members of CIRA (the non profit owner of the .ca domain). I got legalgoose.ca -> @legalgoose.bsky.social See quote post:

So happy to finally introduce a super cool tool I made for @sprk.so: Airport ✈️ It makes AT Protocol migrations between PDS servers available to anyone with a simple web interface. Check it out at atpairport.com Star it on Github at github.com/knotbin/airport

@change.org I tried signing up for an account on change.org with an email. I got the link for the email verification but when I press it it redirects me to the home page and I cannot sign into an account. I then signed in using my Google account but cannot change any personal details.

Today, we are honoured to welcome Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla to Canada. This Royal Visit is a reminder of the bond between Canada and the Crown, one forged over generations. My statement: www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/stat... Photo: Millie Pilkington

Hello @kimberlybrown.bsky.social , A quick suggestion. If you get a domain you can have your artstation, bluesky and discord usernames be the same. A mockup of what it might look like: The lines and circles show what links where. Blue is for bsky, green for artstation and purple for Discord
How to use a domain for each platform: Bluesky: bsky.social/about/blog/4... Artstation: help.artstation.com/s/article/36... Discord (you can use periods "." in usernames): support.discord.com/hc/en-us/art... You can use .art 🎨: get.art/en Or any other type of domain: blue.mackuba.eu/directory/
@expanse.bsky.social Why am I on your "Hell No" list?: bsky.app/profile/did:... I don't know what's the point of the list and the reason why people are on it.
Thank you @electionatlasca.bsky.social for your coverage of the election and creation of election maps. You use your website name for your username. Can you instead use your website name for your handle? Steps: www.cira.ca/en/resources... This will allow your username and handle be the same.
@tangled.sh Is there a way to mirror repositories from other git hosting services to tangled.sh? Would like to still have a record of my activity on GitHub for potential employers. 🙃

Bought tickets today. August can't arrive soon enough.
I don't plan to do any more in person speeches or panels - but if you want to partake in a great in person event with me and other urbanist creators, Canadian Civil Alive is that! A few discount tickets are left! www.eventbrite.ca/e/canadian-c...

Just joined the wait list for @gandersocial.bsky.social (gandersocial.ca) It's great to see a Canadian social media app being built that will be interoperable with the rest of the open web. Looking forward to using it. #Canada
Some suggestions: - Would like to see @gandersocial.bsky.social to use their domain for their handle so it'd be @gandersocial.ca - Would like to see them partner with @cira.ca like they already do with mstdn.ca (A mastodon instance for Canadians). - See Canadian politicians use gandersocial.ca
To join the waiting list for gandersocial.ca follow the link attached. bsky.app/profile/gand...
After a long bit of toiling, we're proud to announce the launch of Gander Social—a project to bring a new kind of social to Canadians. Canadian owned and hosted, a feed you control, privacy-first, consent-based, respectful by default. Join the Early Access program: gandersocial.ca
@go.eco Can you issue verification records to holders of .eco domains and who have a profile.eco page? You can create verification records with cred.blue 's tool: cred.blue/verifier For bluechecks to show up you'd have to ask bsky to show your verification records in app. It'd promote .eco sites
