An interactive map of folks in the hacker community, who was a member of what, and where they wound up.
Initial research question: “What are the most effective governance and administration models/structures in place on medium-to-large sized Fediverse servers, and what infrastructural gaps (human and digital) persist?”
Our rationale at the project’s outset: “The Fediverse’s rapid expansion brings both opportunities and multifaceted risks. Our research seeks to identify current server administrators’ most promising models for mitigating those risks and outline the biggest and most important gaps in risk mitigation, with the aim of helping the broader Fediverse level up governance quickly, safely, and collaboratively.”
We were drawn to this research question because the socio-technical aspects of Fediverse governance often seem opaque from the outside—from outside any given server, and especially from outside the Fediverse. Most servers offer some documentation about their practices and a few offer extensive explanations and policies, but whole swathes of knowledge about the aspects of server management that extends beyond the more purely technical concerns of hosting, provisioning, and technical upkeep exists only as insider knowledge.
Above all, we wanted to understand more about what happens behind the curtain of Fediverse server operation, and distribute this knowledge widely to help other server teams level up together—and perhaps to uncover characteristics of server governance that might be meaningful to others trying to build sustainable alternatives to centralized commercial platforms, whether on the Fediverse or elsewhere.
Welcome to NONoWriMo.org, the website for "Not the Official Novel Writing Month." This site is not affiliated with the National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) organization, whose website can be found at nanowrimo.org.
The table below contains links to regional monthly-novel-writing groups that are unaffiliated with, or have divested from, the official NaNoWriMo organization. The list is currently hand-managed, so it may take a day or two after form submission for groups to be added to this page.
While we love the idea of National Novel Writing Month, we're pretty fed up with what the organization behind it is doing. We're currently actively developing an alternative site, focused on the values and community focus that made NaNoWriMo great, but without the negative sides the organization has brought to the table.
Hi, I'm Sean, A.K.A. Action Retro on YouTube. I work on a lot of 80's and 90's Macs (and other vintage machines), and I really like to try and get them online. However, the modern internet is not kind to old machines, which generally cannot handle the complicated javascript, CSS, and encryption that modern sites have. However, they can browse basic websites just fine. So I decided to see how much of the internet I could turn into basic websites, so that old machines can browse the modern internet once again!
The search functionality of FrogFind is basically a custom wrapper for DuckDuckGo search, converting the results to extremely basic HTML that old browsers can read. When clicking through to pages from search results, those pages are processed through a PHP port of Mozilla's Readability, which is what powers Firefox's reader mode. I then further strip down the results to be as basic HTML as possible.
I designed FrogFind with classic Macs in mind, so I've been testing on my SE/30 to make sure it looks good in 1 bit color with a 512x384 resolution. Most of my testing has been on Netscape 1.1N and 2.0.2, as well as a few 68k Mac versions of iCab. FrogFind should also work great on any text-based web browser!
This repository serves as a historical archive containing specifications for the fictional hardware of the game 0x10c. The game was to be a multiplayer sandbox game set in space, with a fully programmable CPU controlling a ship. The game was cancelled in 2013 to much dismay of fans. A number of fan projects appeared aiming at continuing development, but they also appear to be abandoned.
There are a large number of fan works on GitHub, mainly implementations of the DCPU-16 hardware or code to run on it. GitHub still has a list of DCPU-16 ASM trending repositories. These usually included links to the official specifications which were either hosted on Pastebin or 0x10c.com. The later has been been offline since February 2014 (weirdly the domain was renewed for another year in April 2014), so this is my attempt to archive them for future reference.
This is my fork of the repo for later reference.
Most businesses aim to get acquired or go public, which often pits the founders against the communities they serve. We're working to enable a third option: An exit to community.
E2C is a path to ownership that benefits all stakeholders: Founders can let go at the right time, communities can grow the business they value, and allies in consulting, policy, and academia can help businesses advance economic democracy.
Lasagna Love is a global nonprofit and grassroots movement that aims to positively impact communities by connecting neighbors with neighbors through homemade meal delivery. We also seek to eliminate stigmas associated with asking for help when it is needed most. Our mission is simple: feed families, spread kindness, and strengthen communities.
Lasagna Love was started at the beginning of the pandemic when the founder of Good to Mama was looking for a way to help moms in her community. She and her toddler started making and delivering meals to families in the neighborhood who were struggling, whether that struggle was financial, emotional, or simply a feeling of overwhelm.
Lasagna Love has since grown into an international movement, with thousands of people all cooking and delivering meals to families in their communities. What we do is simple: feed families, spread kindness, and strengthen communities. Our mission is not only to help address the incredible rise in food insecurity among families but also to provide a simple act of love and kindness during a time full of uncertainty and stress.
This is a specification for recognizing contributors to an open-source project in a way that rewards every contribution, not just code. People are giving themselves and their free time to contribute to open source projects in so many ways, so we believe everyone should be praised for their contributions (code or not).
The CORTEX IMPLANT community was created on Mastodon as an international, cyberpunk-inspired, LGBTQIA+ friendly space for edgerunners, netrunners, cyberpunks, and anyone else who wants to join the community.
The CORTEX IMPLANT community is built on the Fediverse platform, which is a decentralized network of interconnected communities and individuals who share their interests, experiences, and thoughts with one another. The Fediverse allows users to communicate and interact with each other through a variety of applications and protocols, providing a rich and diverse online environment for people to connect and engage with one another.
As a cyberpunk-inspired community, the CORTEX IMPLANT community is focused on the themes, ideas, and aesthetics of the cyberpunk genre, including advanced technology, hacking, and artificial intelligence. The community is open to people of all genders, sexual orientations, and backgrounds, and provides a safe and inclusive space for its members to explore their interests and express themselves.
An online directory of Flipper Zero applications built from source automatically. Pay attention to which F0 firmware an app's been written for, they're not all the same. A few you might have to compile yourself.
We are a collection of furry instances on the Fediverse, which is just a fancy way of saying we are a bunch of servers that federate together allowing furries to join the wider Fediverse. To ease the confusion, Fediverse just means a collection of servers that all communicate with each other. Matodon, Pleroma, Pixelfed, and more are all software that speak Activity Pub which is the protocol the Fediverse runs on.

OpenOversight is a Seattle Tech Bloc project that aims to improve law enforcement visibility and transparency using public and crowdsourced data. We maintain databases, digital galleries, and profiles of individual law enforcement officers from departments the so called Pacific Northwest that consolidate information including names, birthdates, mentions in news articles, salaries, and photographs.
This project is a response to the lack of transparency and justice in policing. The public should have the right to know which officers are patrolling their neighborhoods and watching their communities. When officers abuse their positions of power, they should be able to be easily identified and held accountable.
t is the first project of its kind in the United States, and was first implemented in Chicago in October 2016. OpenOversight launched in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area in fall 2017 and in New York City in 2018. A Baltimore instance was launched in 2019 at BPDWatch.com. A Portland instance was launched around the same time at cops.photo.
TinyGS is an open network of Ground Stations distributed around the world to receive and operate LoRa satellites, weather probes and other flying objects, using cheap and versatile modules.
This project is based on ESP32 boards and currently it is compatible with sx126x and sx127x LoRa modules but we plan to support more radio módules in the future.
The contents of this site will change over time as new additions and revisions are made to further expand upon the full breadth of Gender Dysphoria. In its current iteration it is severely lacking in non-binary, agender & genderfluid specific dysphoria, as well as Third Gender and Two-Spirit narratives. The GDB is an open source and publicly funded project, contributions are extremely welcome.

At Futel, we believe in the preservation of public telephone hardware as a means of providing access to the agora for everybody, and toward that goal we are privileged to provide free telephone calls, voicemail, and telephone-mediated services. We do not judge the motivations of our users, or who they choose to call; if they don’t have someone to call, we can provide a presence on the other end. Denial of telephony services has long been a tactic used against undesirable populations, and our devices will counteract that. But more importantly, we will help to establish a new era of communication, one in which reaching out is not only desirable, but mandatory.
Based in Portland, OR.
