My wife and daughter brought me back some fresh coffee from their trip to Ecuador to assist with the Santiago Project. This smells so delicious!

My nephew is in Panama City, Florida right now. He sent this photo to me. How cool!

@big_diggity That looks like the "right before the screaming starts" scene in a disaster horror movie.

I went with the the Shiznit. 🤣🤣
Next time I'm there, I'll try the Flat Nasty. I go to Cape Girardeau enough times a year, I should have them all sampled by the end of 2023. 🤪

@teamtuck Delicious! I'll be back! It's right next to the hotel I usually stay in when I'm in Cape Girardeau. I'm not in Cape G tonight though.

I know nothing about LaCrosse, but I'm tired of the NFL & the NHL, so I'm going to start following the Colorado Mammoth. It seems to be a sport that is gaining traction locally. There isn't a team in the Midwest in the NLL yet. Anyone know anything about #LaCrosse ?

Colorado Mammoth - Wikipedia

The Colorado Mammoth are a box lacrosse team playing in the National Lacrosse League. The Mammoth have played at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado, since the 2003 season. They are owned by Stan Kroenke, who is also the owner of the Colorado Avalanche, Denver Nuggets and the Colorado Rapids of MLS. Colorado...

@big_diggity I gave up sports when the amount of advertising got to be too much. That was 7-8 years ago! It’s terrible today….

@teamtuck I do enjoy sports some, so it would be nice to find something entertaining.

@big_diggity I would still like to watch sports if it weren’t for the overload of ads, having to pay a super high cable bill (only way to see local teams), and if all this betting stuff didn’t exist. The world is a bad place.

Fun fact. #hubzilla is the only project compatible with EVERYTHING Fediverse - Wikipedia

The fediverse (a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe") is an ensemble of federated (i.e. interconnected) servers that are used for web publishing (i.e. social networking, microblogging, blogging, or websites) and file hosting, which, while independently hosted, can communicate with each other. On different servers (technically instances)...

@ChiaChatter Hubzilla does it all! You can even run websites on it. It's like the Swiss army knife of the Fediverse! 🤣

Why isn't #XMPP represented there? Like, #Libervia now talks XMPP and #ActivityPub, but #Movim talks only XMPP, I think.

My work truck specs say it holds 25 gallons of gasoline. I just put 25.21 gallons of gasoline in my truck in case you were wondering how close to the edge I really do live life.

Is there any other Fediverse project that allows easy location integration with either Open Street Maps or Google Maps besides Hubzilla and Friendica?

Streams

It has a full range of location services such as check-in, checkout, and distance search, but the fine print is that it's merely the newest member of the Friendica/Hubzilla family tree -- if you are ruling them out for specific reasons.

@mike I keep hearing about Streams, but I have not found a link so that I could check it out. I admit I haven't looked super hard either, though.
Actually, I'm a big fan of Hubzilla and Friendica. I'm not ruling them out.
I have a few friends who want to leave Facebook but want something they can easily check-in their location and also, easily share photos along with text- only posts. Friendica, so far, seems to fit the best from what I've used.

@mike Oh, and getting notifications working on mobile (mostly Android) I've not been able to get either Hubzilla or Friendica to pop up notifications on my Android. I forgot to mention that above.

2023-06-01 05:01:42

https://codeberg.org/streams/streams

It's a repository that I contribute to and made public domain, not really a project or brand or anything.

2023-06-01 05:16:20

Afraid I'm not the best person to ask about mobile notifications. I know there's some code to activate the notifications api on android, but streams doesn't use it. I think Hubzilla can if you register the device in your settings. For me it was deciding which events should be allowed to interrupt me at inopportune times and for me the answer is "none".

I can't believe there isn't a better Quickbooks, or Mint, or Quicken alternative that is open source. Or that I can run on my server. Everything I find doesn't have an app or way to access outside of a single machine. Money Manager EX comes the closest. What are you useing? Pencil and Paper? lol
