@httpster Om båda instanserna stödjer det så kommer både följare och de du följer med automagiskt, men inte de poster du gjort. @samuel @Anders_S @omi @gnomvid

@httpster Om vi ändå pratar utopier kan det kanske vara värt att fundera på situationer där tittare och videoskapare inte sitter fast i en framtvingat antagonistisk relation där producenten behöver "tvinga till sig" tittare för att få exvis mat på bordet... @persicking @samuel

@httpster Går det att be om en alt-text?

Emigration is not a good way of avoiding authoritarian regimes. Sometimes its necessary, especially if the regime is turning violent

But emigrating from one authoritarian state to another will usually leave you genuinely worse off and being a foreigner in even a progressive state is always going to be a very vulnerable position.

Most countries will also outright refuse to give you a work visa if you are too old or disabled.

@Flamman Men vafan

@thisismissem Looking at "Search Engines" kind of shows the problem though: Out of 6 alternatives, 4 are just frontends for Bing, 1 is a frontend for Google, and 1 "combines search results from other providers".

@KeithDJohnson be honest, is this what you think a lot of Trump voter explicitly wants or think they voted for?

@bastibayer zählt eine Doktorarbeit?

@randahl if you think anything other than this would have been permitted by the US and its capital you are woefully naive

@fabriek what birds are those btw?

@fabriek cool! Sometimes it's still possible to find useful things on the internet I suppose 🙂

@tante Was it ever, though?

@fabriek It feels like something ffmpeg should be able to do. Quickly searching for it yields a couple of hits, but I've no idea if they actually work:

@econads @onepict "Safe Harbor" protection, which has been challenged in court and finds seriously wanting.

On the other hand, EU citizens don't have access to a bunch of AI solutions, despite user privacy being an utmost concern to the same companies in the USA 🤔

@Anders_S Nyfiken fråga: Har du läst Vincent Bevins böcker (The Jakarta Method och If We Burn)? Jag ser att de dyker upp på bloggen, men inte i inlägg som du själv skrivit. Om du läst dem, vad tycker du om dem?

As the multisystem crises of late capitalism intensify, faith in these assumptions will continue to deteriorate. People embrace radical alternatives that would be unthinkable in the dying social order.

Fraser identifies two alternatives: European-style social democracy or White nationalist populism.

The Democratic Party, as recently as the Harris-Walz campaign, has resisted calls for more redistributive economic policies from people like Bernie Sanders.

While the GOP and Trump offer fascism.

@anarchiv Just a guy saying "Aw mum!"

@anarchiv I like that their "Air Wing" is just ten guys and still get a whole wikipedia page

@anarchiv Shawn Ogg of Discworld fame vibes

There's a prominently pushed "Configure the new UI" button, which I was grateful for since I don't like the new UI, but it turned out to be… pretty much a switch for "Light Mode" vs "Dark Mode". No "please put labels on the tabs and buttons like you used to before". No "And where is the REAL light mode, please?".

The reason I'm focusing so much on complaining about the UI here is, as mentioned, deployment is broken, so it's not like I can do any "development"
