That was a temp location on Bowen, we’ll see when / if it becomes more permanent.

Here’s a random part of Canada with bonus Air Canada wingtip from flying home yesterday.

Heading home from #ATProto_MTL

It was a small but mighty gathering. Thanks for the kind words: I feel lucky to be able to be in commons with you all.

A new headshot: blue skies and a wide atmosphere behind me.

A reminder that @chadkoh.com did a step-by-step write up of how you can join the ATProto #IETF124 BoF session at 9:30am EST this morning remotely. No cost registration.

Using @ngerakines.me atwork atwork.place to create "endorsements" that other folks were at #IETF124

Experimenting with different types of "attestation" proofs.

I'm taking inspiration from some of the #IETF124 badge customization for #ATmosphereConf - yes we will absolutely have stickers and ribbons to swag up your badges!

OK ok but now that I've signed up for a hub account with @atuin.sh, I'm just like, we really can help with the social directory features and not have to rebuild them into each app!

Also: all my social links are ATProto apps!!! (it did recognize the bsky link)

This is the sign up options for the Atuin Desktop "hub" accounts signup, with Github and Google as the two external login options. And a dev centric product @atuin.sh might even be up for it!

Getting "Sign up with ATproto" on there with consistent branding and flows is somewhere we CAN get to.

I guess it’s my 3 year anniversary in just over a month.

You’re sponsoring @baileytownsend.dev right?

Bailey I moved @dwebyvr.org from my personal indie PDS to the shared @commonscomputer.com one today.

Hardest part? Getting email setup on my PDS so I could get the PLC token 😆

The new design is a lot more readable, too!

As far as I understand, yes. Blacksky has three domains it is handing out from Blacksky .community.

Do I want to go to #IETF125 in Shenzhen??? I mean, yes, I want to go to Shenzhen, but maybe less so just 7 days before #ATmosphereConf 😆

Somebody invite me to Brazil and Japan later in 2026!

Welcome to #AlfSky

Your regular reminder that if you find ATProto apps useful, you should support their creators to keep them running.

Devs pay for servers AND put their time into building software.

Good on @clearsky.app for putting this front and center.

On a dumpster outside Parker Studios. I liked the design and also made me think “yes, I want old computers and parts and stuff”

Went for a short walk around Strathcona Park. A few trees are getting some colour.

Second photo is a “micro forest” that has been planted at one side of the park, with local plants and underbrush and saplings of all kinds.

Router is on the deck.

Got to UBC North Repeater briefly but unclear that we’ll have regular connectivity.

Antenna on the roof.

Here’s the #MeshCore detail screen for the message from the bus going over the Lions Gate.

It got to the Yaletown repeater.

Nothing from Horseshoe Bay waterfront.

Just missed the 10:35am ferry. Not in a rush. Will have a coffee and hang out.
October 4, 2025 at 5:35 PM
Heading to Bowen Island to visit my parents.

Will also set up a solar #meshcore node there.
October 4, 2025 at 5:10 PM
I’m heading out to touch water with @husume.bsky.social for a couple of hours.
October 3, 2025 at 7:43 PM
So #meshcore (which our local #salishmesh are all switching to instead of Meshtastic) has the concept of BBS rooms.

Still getting up to speed with it myself! It’s pretty fun!

That would be me posting from @protopro.blue which is in invite only mode as a LinkedIn replacement and doesn’t support facets yet!
