It’s time to melt The Shat and have him as an annoying holo-creature on the Sulu and Chekhov adventures.

Wait around for two hours in case it comes back.

Nice work, but I’m curious if you checked out Novel Writer (https://novelwriter.io/)?

Guns don’t kill people. Cats do.

It has all of them, but it’s bare bones and doesn’t scale well. The instance where I have an account regularly falls over - sometimes for months at a time. Most of my friends there haven’t returned.

I don’t feel it’s currently a viable Facebook alternative, and it would need monumental amounts of work for it to become one.

No, we had the Poms until WW2, now we have the yanks. Anyone that believes we’ve ever truly ‘stood alone’ is clearly deluded. Perhaps we might one day, but that would take a different sort of leadership. Likely the sort that most of us would consider objectionable.

It’s activitypub, but can be configured to also use AT as well.

Given that porn has been at the forefront of technological innovation for at least the last fifty years, it’s telling we haven’t been deluged with AI-generated porn.

Most illegal immigrants are poms that have overstayed their working-holiday visa.

Although I feel season 5 (the last season) of Babylon 5 was a trainwreck, I would have liked to have seen something that was fully funded and supported by the network. Instead we got Crusade and The Legend of the Rangers, and then the TV movies.

Weep for Warners, Na’toth. Weep for us all.

I do indeed have the mind of an artist. I keep it in a small jar under my bed.

Unfortunately, mostly broken at the moment. Normally it’s great, though.

I have used Friendica. It might appear useful as a base for a fedi-linkedIn, but not in its current state. It does the basics, but only barely, and it’s not particularly stable. The instance I’m on falls over regularly (for days or weeks), despite the admin’s best efforts. It feels like a new project, instead of something that has been under development since 2010.

If you’re using WordPress, the activitypub plugin does this also. It’s good to have choices.

I’ve been having issues with Piefed.Social for last day or so (before the update was announced). I even submitted an issue on GitHub. It seems to have fixed itself now though.

Sadly, the first thing the defending lawyers will point out is where were the parents in all this? Why was he able to turn off the parental controls, and why didn’t the parents notice?

If I removed ActivityPub from my blog, I’d get no readership whatsoever. It’s not like search works anymore.

Filters already mute keywords and can be set for specific periods of time. AFAIK*, subscribed blocklists were rejected because they could be used to target minority members by bad actors. How are custom feeds different from lists?

• From threads on the subject months ago, so that might have changed.

Not really that hard to explain, unless I’m missing your point. Wafrn is a federated Tumblr-like platform that allows two-way interaction with Bluesky users (without the need for bridging).

Outside the US, it’s on D+.
