Sitecore MVP - 2017-2021, Forwardist, gamer, conference speaker, blogger, herder of cats, traveler, poker player, ghost hunter. he/him Opinions are my own!

My name is Pete Navarra, and to the Sitecore Community, I'm known as the Sitecore Hacker.

I've been in the Sitecore space since 2008 and have made many friends, experienced everything from the good, the bad, and the ugly, and have even survived to talk about it.

Are you on Windows 11?

Are you constantly having what appears to be UDP/TCP packet issues?

Do you find yourself having to constantly be on a VPN for internet to work?

Take a moment and ask: Do you have the Z590 Chipset and is your LAN Driver the Intel Ethernet Controller I225-V (which is used in ASUS and MSI motherboards)

Turns out.... You're not alone!

Also turns out... It's a complete incompatibility of Windows 11. Can't fix it, except to buy a USB network.

Redirecting

A few have asked for ways to help support Hivecore Mastodon's operational expenses. I've put together this Patreon page for just that.

I also plan on using the Patreon page for Server Status and maintenance updates.

Over on the bird site, one of our own is having a really hard time overcoming the idea that Mastodon servers are being run by individuals, and that DM's aren't exactly private to server admins.

I've been trying to figure out an analogy to what Mastodon feels like to me, and thanks to @jasonstcyr he provided me the right context.

#Mastodon is like the new era of Bulletin Boards, and the #Fediverse is the new #FidoNet.

That explains why I love running these things! #BBS #SysOp

Wow, since turning on Cloudflare for @hivecore.social, 1,880 threats have been detected and thwarted.

SUCH a cool experiment out of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab: https://archive.social

Allows you to capture a thread from Twitter and archive it in sealed PDFs to attest to legitimacy.

Could be enormously useful to journalists, archivists, etc, particularly with Twitter facing a perilous future.

Save Your Threads

High-fidelity capture of Twitter threads as sealed PDFs on social.perma.cc. An experiment of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab.

Did you know that #Mastodon supports #RSS feeds?

That means you can follow your favorite people and topics right inside of Thunderbird!

β†’ Just add ".rss" to the URL ←

For example, our Mastodon URL "https://mastodon.online/@thunderbird"

becomes

"https://mastodon.online/@thunderbird.rss"

What about #hashtags? YEP!

Let's look at #OpenSource. From our instance, it is: "https://mastodon.online/tags/opensource"

So, we just append .rss and it works!

"https://mastodon.online/tags/opensource.rss"

REALLY useful if you don't want to miss a thing!
