I've been looking into Auth(N|Z) for an ASP .Net WebAPI app, which would need to accommodate both web based logins and potentially app based logins further down the line. As far as I can see, the only clean (F)OSS method, that doesn't involve workarounds, and uses as much battle tested tech as possible, would be a custom OAuth2/OIDC provider written using .Net Identity and OpenIdDict

KC was almost there, but there's no deletion callbacks

Unless anyone has any suggestions?

The year is 2025, MySpace is but a distant memory, and Tumblr declines by the day. Undiagnosed millennials continue roaming the wilds of the internet looking for a platform to call home.

Liz, Ben and guest Pratchett scholar Freyja Stokes head downriver to the Shires for an adventure featuring Vimeses, goblins, murderers, double meanings...and one Wonderful Fanny. Join us as we discuss #TerryPratchett’s last Watch-focused #Discworld novel, 2011’s Snuff. #Pratchat86

Anyone else just _exhausted_ by tech enshittification?

Anti-Vax guy thinks DEI too embedded in XOrg so he forks it to the cheers of some / chagrin of others

Very Reasoned Opinions on Age of Consent guy helms major #oss endeavor

Firefox, our critical bulwark against IE running away with the internet is also trying to figure out how hard to accomodate AI grifters and executive grifters who are helping themselves first?

Apple enshittified; social media enshittified; Elon enshittified.

It's made #retrocomputing in @interlisp ever so much more attractive.

In a startling display of irony, Trump/Musk supporters now have to choose between their two daddies, who are going through a difficult breakup. During Pride Month, no less!

Does anyone else notice that they get significantly more "Prove you're human" captcha requests when using Linux? Specifically Firefox on Debian (Trixie). Although I doubt the distribution has anything to do with it.

I'm not one of those *crazy* crazy cat guys who thinks their cat is extra intelligent, I'm just saying there is damning evidence that she's hacked into the auto-feeder.

@AnguaDelphine @terrybot If I recall correctly, it was a comment on how addictive he found it, not the quality of the game.

Thought of the moment.

There should be a version of Whamageddon for pride month, but instead of avoiding the song Last Christmas, you have to try and avoid seeing some bigoted mess complaining about *that* rainbow branded "LGBT" sandwich, from 2019, being "rammed down" their throats.

We could call it Ramageddon.

From someone who is just perpetually confused, to those of you who are perpetually brave, happy Pride Month! ☺️ 🏳️‍🌈

@purserj The only way The Watch could be described as "good" is if Simon Allen created an adaptation of the word.

Although, to be fair to it, it billed itself as "inspired by" Discworld, and Discworld is a satirical reflection on how shit things can be, so in that respect it got it 100% on the money.

oops, I appear to have tripped and fallen into a rant.

POWER UP Your ASP.NET Core Blazor User Interfaces With Plugins!

Want to introduce flexibility, extensibility, and modularity to your ASP.NET Core Blazor application's user interface? We can leverage a plugin system to load raw HTML content and RenderFragments from plugins. Let's see how we can use Autofac in Blazor to accomplish this!

@devleader this was something I was pondering earlier today, so I will certainly watch the video later, but I must please ask you to vacate my brain 😅

You've heard of service animals, well I stubbed my toe, and as I let out a loud exclamation my cat ran in and batted my foot with her paw...

That's right. I have a disservice animal.

@crussel I think she'd have murderised me if I'd tried 😅

I decided to go straight to the source of the problem

I now have significant trust issues if I see information divided up into sections with headers that start with an emoji.

Considering Discworld is a relatively niche fandom, we're incredibly lucky to have the Discworld Emporium ( https://www.discworldemporium.com/ ) creating high quality products featuring new artwork from fantastic artists, and https://discworld.com providing products featuring much loved original Discworld artwork.

So please, buy from those websites to support them rather than the random t-shirt sellers that pop up with unlicensed and/or copied designs.
