I’m off Twitter, find me as @iame.li on Bluesky.

Probable last Tweet. Bye!. Mastodon: Lens: iameli.lens.Bluesky:

RT @SpaghettEth: 🍝 Meet Our Speakers 🍕 we are happy to have .Eli Mallon from @Livepeer on our stage!

no more tweetbot means no more tweets. mastodon: lens: iameli.lens. bye!.

no more tweetbot means i probably won’t use this anymore, bye i guess.

for everybody forever.

RT @FUNKePills: (A Speedrunner Explaining the Grocery Store's Self-Checkout Isle) Yeah so on a 6-sided box you have a 16% chance of scannin….

if you love borders so much why don’t you marry them

come to think of it, why doesn’t that work? @dabit3 why isn’t @iameli.lens@lens.xyz something valid to follow on Mastodon?.

(but it should probably be activitypub compatible anyway).

lens is so much fucking better than mastodon.

RT @_danilo: so here's an important political lesson from last weekend:. it is ESSENTIAL that we not pre-accommodate illegitimate authority….

this rule puts Mastodon in the "not decentralized" side unfortunately.

if I post on Lens or Scuttlebutt, you can take a look at that "post" artifact and say "oh yeah iameli posted something" without any additional context. decentralized!.

me sending this tweet? it's some text attached to an opaque "Bearer" token. nobody knows what that means except for a database somewhere in twitter headquarters.

the fundamental principle of decentralization: user actions are first-class constructs that exist outside the context of any particular provider. (that. needs to be snappier. going to workshop it a little).

nobody liked this tweet huh.

(strongly inspired by postgres connection strings obvs).

came up with this syntax for go-livepeer's object stores and i'm unreasonably proud of it. most other usages I've seen have four separate variables for key, secret, host, and bucket — this does all of that in a single string and also lets you specify an optional subpath. clean.
