  • I wouldn't call what I was doing with your dad last night 'getting cucked'.

  • Not enough capacity:

    To host a game at the tournament European football's governing body Uefa [sic] requires stadia to have a minimum capacity of 30,000. […] Windsor, which is also home to Irish League outfit Linfield holds 18,000. It would need another 12,000 seats to be able to host a game.

  • Are console wars back? Are we doing this again?

    God no, we don't fight about silly things like what plastic box you own. We fight about sensible things, like which Linux distro your plastic box runs. (Fedora btw)

  • As someone who spends more money than I should on music from Bandcamp, I'm interested to see if they ever get payments working. I remember people talking about a federated BC alternative, where the 10% platform fee goes to the instance you're on, when they got bought by that music licensing company.

    Also, first paragraph under "Integrating with the Fediverse", you put Bandcamp when I think you meant Bandwagon.

  • "Raise taxes on working people or reform to secure [the NHS'] future. We know working people can’t afford to pay more, so it is reform or die."

    Alexa, show me a false dichotomy.

    It's amazing how the their report names austerity as the culprit of the NHS' waning condition, but Streeting's solution seems to just change where money is allocated. The UK spends significantly less on Health compared to other developed countries, is it really surprising that our results would be significantly worse?

  • That's because she knows stopping the planes won't stop the towers coming down. /s

  • I haven't got to this yet, but all I want to know is if the toff in my head ever shags the stable girl.

  • Where have they done that?

  • It simply can’t really happen due to the technical way Mastodon and Lemmy function. I’m not sure if there is a way to address this on either side (or if the developers would be willing to do so even if there was).

    Mastodon needs to implement group support, you can follow the issue here (don't get your hopes up though).

  • Their app is open source, but it doesn't give any instructions on how to self-host it, in fact it seems to not have been designed with self-hosting in mind given the forking section of the ReadMe:

    You have our blessing 🪄✨ to fork this application! However, it's very important to be clear to users when you're giving them a fork.

    Please be sure to:

    • Change all branding in the repository and UI to clearly differentiate from Bluesky.
    • Change any support links (feedback, email, terms of service, etc) to your own systems.
    • Replace any analytics or error-collection systems with your own so we don't get super confused.

    The impression I get from Bluesky is that it doesn't view federation as a core feature of its platform, just a nice technical oddity. I'm no expert on the AT protocol, but from a quick skim of the quickstart, their view of federation seems to be having disparate data repositories (Personal Data Servers) app developers can put their app data into. It doesn't really seems to be about different software communicating with each other.

    In contrast, ActivityPub is about passing JSON between servers in a somewhat standard format so different software can reasonably understand what that JSON represents and act on it in a way that makes sense for that software.

    (But again, I'm don't know anything about the AT protocol, I could be completely wrong here)

  • Wow, what an odd thing for NASA Commercial Crew to post.

  • How do you spend 250 billion million on something and the only way people hear about it is the memes mocking how much of a failure it is? Is Morbius just the standard Sony marketing strategy now?

  • Feddit.uk makes our finances public, about £35 a month. So about £0.11 per active user.

    Also, I run sappho.social out of a £5 a month VPS.
