- Comment on Huginn is a self-hosted, open-source alternative to IFTTT and Zapier 1 week ago:
Like the author of that post, I had never heard about Huginn until just now, but when IFTTT went down the shitter for me (around 2018) was about the same time I started using Home Assistant. I found that HA had every one of the service connections available that I used to use through IFTTT, so I naturally just re-implemented all of my flows as automations. HA has only added capabilities since those earlier days. It’s not just for “home” automation.
If you’re interested in more graphical representations of your automations, HA can have NodeRed as a plug-in.
- Comment on Mastodon to GoToSocial Migration 4 weeks ago:
If I could not just migrate to a new instance, but actually convert my existing (self-hosted, single-user) Mastodon instance to a GoToSocial instance, I would do it tomorrow. I don’t want to lose the domain I picked for my Mastodon instance though.
I remember seeing somebody working on a project to convert the Mastodon database to a GTS database, so this may yet happen.

Seems like Chris Pine is getting surprised a lot these days. Maybe we shouldn’t be asking him about these things.

- Comment on Do I have incredibly weak thumbs, or does this instruction exist on boxes just to mess with us? 1 year ago:
I think you all just have weak thumbs. I’ve always opened them just as the package says to. Never had a problem.
As a kid, I would have thumb wrestling matches with my older brother, and sometimes, on weekends, I’d hitchhike. I used my thumbs a lot. I’ve had to replace 4 space bars on my keyboard.
Never skip thumb day.
