  • informapirata indeed! This is configurable under the site-wide ActivityPub settings under "auto categorization rules".

    For that site I have hashtags like "ActivityPub" and "fedimod" set up to automatically categorize discussions.

    It only matches for discussions that don't already have a category of their own (so, microblog stuff.)

  • > Batel's Gorn DNA infusion, the treatment from the chimera plant, and her earlier encounter with the Vezda are stirred up into a convoluted sci-fi stew to explain all this in a dialogue scene that tries with all its might to use sci-fi-y terminology to convince us this actually makes sense, but mostly just draws attention to what a whopper of an ass-pull it all really is. The overriding sense one gets while watching this is, "Well, they're just making stuff up now and pretending it holds water." It really doesn't. But I have to admit that I respect the commitment to the sheer insanity of the concept, even if the effort and seam-hiding are lacking. In the end, it's basically, "because we said so."

    god bless Jammer.

  • Protocol handler?

    Jump

  • The PR comments suggest that making the various changes to the backend were too large to justify, and a front-end only approach would be preferred? smitten@key.portend.place

    It raises a good point though, where if you serve web+ap://, it's not understood by clients that are not aware of this scheme. If there were a way a client could communicate whether there is a protocol handler registered, then the server could tailor its response.

  • Are there implementors of web+ap? I'd be interested in adopting.

    I assume the fallback behaviour is to just assume https?

  • The concept sounds excellent, although there is fairly limited mobile support.

    Since NodeBB is an installable PWA it would be definitely nice to have it supported there as well.

  • > None of this "Universal Star-child" bullshit.

    Bang on. It's the same reason I couldn't stand Discovery. There's a universe ending problem and you alone are the key to solving it? Blech.

    Fan fic with higher production values.

    I think Batel was a well written character, otherwise.

  • julian@fietkau.social the work by jesseplusplus@mastodon.social is split into two PRs.

    The first allows Mastodon to start serving context collections. This is the critical piece that allows others to backfill conversations.

    The latter half to be introduced in another PR will allow Mastodon to consume context collections for backfill purposes.

  • silverpill@mitra.social oh you better believe I was aware of it 😁

    It is a significant step toward broad adoption of context collections in order to enable backfill.

  • Honestly it could be something as prohibitive as not having secured film and TV rights from the authors.

    I can imagine that doing it after the fact is often quite expensive.

  • Every Mbin Comment is in the Form of Mentions

    Jump

  • just to correct something, NodeBB will not send a mention unless you are specifically mentioned. We do auto populate a mention in the text box though, so it's probably happening because of that.

    What we also do is send the message to everybody so everybody has a copy. (Everybody is addressed)

    e.g. you should not have been mentioned here.

    There's a lot of discussion of Mississippi's age verification law for social media today, after Bluesky announced they're blocking the state.

  • Thanks for posting about this thenexusofprivacy@infosec.exchange

    I'm interested (in a tired defeatist way) in what I need to do to stay on the right side.

    It sounds like geoblocking is probably the quickest legally safe course of action, so perhaps it's bye Mississippi too...
