Fabio Concato - e ti ricordo ancora. @musicaUna canzone del 1984 che descrive i sentimenti ingenui di affetto tra due bambini maschi. Niente di erotico, solo tenero. Sentire quel brano e provare pena per Vannacci è stato immediato. Non so molto di com'era il generaglio quando era solo il piccolo Roberto, forse Rob, forse Roby, all'asilo o alle elementari. Lui descrive nei suoi libri di avere avuto una madre mezza despota, e la moglie uguale. Dice di essere sempre stato contrario alle regole fin da piccolo. Nel suo libro vede come un pregio la repressione delle emozioni...Io boh. Ho provato un disagio tremendo a sentire questa canzone di Concato, perché non ho visto Fabio. Ho visto Roberto. Ho visto un contesto sociale (e poi lavorativo) che l'ha represso a tal punto, da renderlo cinico. Da preferire buttarsi sul militare e far carriera lì, dove non potrà mai essere quello che, in fondo in fondo, è. Lo senti da come parla dei gay quanto sia represso. Vuole impedire agli altri quello che è stato impedito a lui.Se sentisse questa canzone di 40 anni fa, scommetto che la vorrebbe trasmettere in radio dopo le 23.#musica #lgbt #vannacci

BLIND GAMING@videogiochi Mi sa che -almeno su PC e mobile- posso avvicinarmi pure io al gaming. Alcuni su mobile li conosco già ma per il resto non ho sufficiente conoscenza di questo mondo. vorrei provare solo su pc gli altri, la console non mi interessa. Costano, e non vale la pena spendere centinaia di euro solo per giocare. blindgaming.net#giochi #videogame #disabili

GLIDE - assistente robot con AI per la disabilità visiva: possibile costosa fregatura?@aitech In America se ne sta parlando tantissimo, Glide non è ancora disponibile sul mercato adesso è il progetto pilota, e ancora in Europa non c'è; però io sinceramente sento l'odore della fregatura. Ho sperato che questo dispositivo potesse ridare finalmente autonomia completa al mio ex ragazzo, invece niente. Da come lo descrivono, sarebbe complicato pure per me - se tieni una valigia, o sulle scale non c'è il corrimano, secondo me sei fregato.Il mio ex oltre alla disabilità visiva ha una disabilità motoria alla mano e alla gamba sinistra. La mano sinistra proprio non si muove, e la gamba sinistra è più corta del normale.Ha avuto il cane guida dal 2006 al 2016, morto nel 2020; istruito con la guida a destra, e a gestire una persona claudicante, da un istruttore qualificato che è andato in pensione subito dopo, perché era già abbastanza anziano. Di solito i cani guida sono tenuti dalla mano sinistra ma lui oggettivamente non può. Difatti, il cane si chiamava Fidel. Ed essendo il mio ex di destra, diceva sempre "il mio dittatore si chiama Fidel ma è orientato a destra".In seguito nessuna scuola più è riuscita a preparare un altro cane idoneo e, 10 anni dopo, è ancora senza. Poi secondo me c'è l'AIDS di mezzo e nessuno vuole dire apertamente di aver paura di dare un cane a una persona che secondo i pregiudizi potrebbe morire, stigma vecchio come il mondo. Allora speravo che questo robot potesse risolvere il problema; col bastone ti muovi, ma il cane o un robot eviterebbe gli ostacoli molto meglio. Poi il robot è utile per tutte le persone (me compresa) che non vogliono la responsabilità di un ulteriore essere vivente che piscia, caga, scoreggia in ufficio, si ammala, e ancora nonostante le leggi vecchie di decenni, è oggetto di discriminazioni. Però temo che questo robot sia oltremodo complesso oltre che costoso. youtube.com/watch?v=EZ7S39zsUG#disabili #robotica #tech

WordPress and ActivityPub: my first fail@selfhosted I've already posted about my success and fail in the past, but I have something else to talk about: ActivityPub fails in my self hosted WordPress (hostinger vps).Setup: YunoHost, WordPress multisite. For a multisite network, YunoHost requires WordPress to reside in a folder. Such as "domain .ext /folder" and not "site1 . domain .ext" or "site2 .domain .ext"Started setup, the site apparently works. But, before involving a co-worker to help me with theme, I wanted to try installing ActivityPub plugin first.Immediately WordPress health system, warned that endpoint webfinger wasn't accessible. Watching the logs, it was YunoHost ssowat and I tried to comment it on domain's nginx file - /etc/nginx/config.d/domain.ext.confResult, from 302 error, it returned 500. "error establishing database connection". The .well-known stays on /var/www/.well-known, while WordPress lives on /var/www/wordpress__3I set all YunoHost's permissions to "visitors"I really don't know where to go, at the moment.#ActivityPub #AskFedi #FediHelp #selfhost #selfhosting #WordPress #YunoHost

WordPress multisite in selfhosting: one fail, one success @selfhosted Starting with the fail: selfhosted site doesn't associate to the official automattic WordPress mobile app; I've (temporarily?) commented the "location xmlrpc.php deny all" rule on /etc/nginx/conf.d/plusbrothers.net'd/wordpress__3.confThe app correctly generates the "application password" but then returns "impossible to load WordPress site details" (no idea if it's the correct English word).SUCCESS: Ulysses and Drafts, two iPhone/iPad writing apps, successfully publish my texts on WordPress posts, as a draft; I can use those and write what I want. I'll try to uncomment xmlrpc deny rule again, then retry. My goal is to write contents on the app, then finalize it on the site.OTHER SUCCESS: site works, both with pure "plusbrothers.net" address and physical WordPress location "plusbrothers.net/wp" - applies to /english as well. Before concretely re-posting old contents and writing new ones, I prefer to have a very solid structure.I have no idea though, about how vulnerable my website is, hostinger vps YunoHost-driven. It's been long, long time I didn't work till late in the night, at the moment I'm writing, it's 10 minutes to 3 in the morning! I promised to my best friend (and content writer) that on July 3rd, the walls of our sentient HIV's house, should have been ready.And I kept the promise. 3rd July, 3 in the morning, the house stands up. Still dirty, still stinks of building, no possibility to live in it, but at least we won't fall dead with collapsing ceiling.Blind selfhoster journey continues.#blind #experience #selfhost #selfhosting #website #WordPress #YunoHost

Self hosting: real game starts today@selfhosted So, it's done: my main domain has finally got its transfer to Hostinger, new provider where I have the VPS I'm experimenting in.Real game with WordPress multisite/multilingual and self-hosted Fediverse starts TODAY!#activitypub #selfhost #selfhosting #wordpress #yunohost

Self-hosting journey update, and WordPress: latest development from a super-newbie@selfhosted I must recap as I set my instance to delete 2-weeks-old posts.Months ago, I talked about my very first journey with self-hosting my digital services, including my website.As I'm not very skilled with sysadmin stuff, I use a YunoHost installation with all its pros and cons.Having severe accessibility needs (I'm totally blind) I have limited choices for what concerns CMS software with related extensions if any. So after months of exploration and test, I've come back home. To WordPress.Last time I updated Fediverse about my experience, I was struggling with multisite network giving an unpleasant error in the non-main site, such as "too_many_redirects"Making it short, I discovered that YunoHost doesn't let me run a multisite properly when installed in a subdomain such as blog.domain.tldSo I had forcefully to install it in the main domain, and a subdirectory such as domain.tld/wpNow I'm concentrating on my theme, I will clone it with the plugin "CreateBlockTheme" then activate it network-wide.I need a multisite for multilingual, as all current multilingual plugins have poor accessibility support, and are mostly paid.Then I may need a new taxonomy registered to organize stories, the glossary plugin, SEO plugin, ActivityPub, and I should be all set!The last, hard, challenge I have, is the fact that now my site runs into "domain.tld/permalink-post" for Italian, and "domain.tld/english" for EnglishThe new one should run "domain.tld/wp/post" and "domain.tld/wp/english/post"YunoHost doesn't let me build a WordPress site in the root directory with multisite installed, so I must find the way to tell nginx I want the product to be physically on /wp/ but browser can point to domain.tld/post or domain.tld/english/post...And if possible, this change to be in a file on its own, in order to be able to delete it without damaging the whole nginx conf.Last detail, I'm on hostinger, kvm2 package. vps. #experience #multisite #nginx #SelfHosting #WordPress #YunoHost

Journey with self hosting for personal blog and fediverse@selfhostedHello, I followed the "selfhosted" instance on LemmyWorld in order to be able to talk about my experiences having them in order, without confusing criteria into Fediverse. Hoping they can be useful to others. Current setup: Hostinger vps kvm2 plan, Debian12, YunoHost, Hostinger's docker manager installed. Personal background: blind since birth, (I don't see), I'm mostly a computer power-user, worked and studied with ms-dos since 1989 until late 90s. Basic GNU/Linux knowledge in 2002, then interrupted in 2004. I don't care talking about disability when discussing unrelated topics but it's necessary in this case as my needs are quite different from others. So, I've been scared by self-hosting and have had shared hosting web sites until now. Until @_elena started self hosting her digital echosystem from scratch using YunoHost. Due to lack of drivers I stopped with Linux on my private machine, drivers for the Braille display I had, and then the uneffective (at least for my need) screen reader capabilities on Linux's GUI based distros. Finally in January 2026 I jumped in the dark after reading Elena Rossini's blog about YunoHost and having explored their demo pages. At the worst, I'll cancel the contract...In the end I've managed to run WriteFreely, WordPress, CastoPod and GoToSocial, just by YunoHost; but if someone says terminal knowledge is not needed, this is a complete lie. Where a system (such as YunoHost) can do the dirty work configuring postfix and nginx, I'll support it but it has its disadvantages: not every app can be installed through it. For me it's very difficult to create and look after a config file on my own, it's frustrating for a sighted to miss a punctuation sign, an apostrophe, an indent. Let alone for me! A single space skipped, can crash a system.A lie even saying that AI completely helps. It does solve some small, simple, immediate tasks but it has some mistakes as well. The so-called allucinations which create a real mess if you can rely on no personal skill.Such as "sudo yunohost tools cert-install", or similar. AI wrote "cert-install" while the real command is "cert install"! A power user can get rid of it and correct, a beginner with no command-line knowledge, just copies, pastes, and gets scared.My late attempt has been Madblog, a static markdown-based blogging platform with Fediverse activitypub in it, so I learned what Docker is and how it basically works. But I gave up, due to several timeouts and activitypub slow-downs. I think I'm going to use WordPress for blogging then. In case of comments it'll be more intuitive for non-fediverse folks.Hopefully share others' experiences as well! Updating this one: experience is evolving.#ActivityPub #blind #fediverse #introduction #selfhost #selfhosting #WordPress #YunoHost
