You’d think given how many voters they’re losing to the Greens, they’d make more noise about the (pretty good, bar the carbon capture stuff) new carbon budget plan. But alas, this government seemingly can’t do comms.

This is actually pretty good user retention. Most platforms bleed way more users after a surge in sign ups (eg Mastodon, Pixelfed, Threads, Bluesky).


They probably meant [email protected], which is the threadi version of r/place.


For the moment, I’m the only admin and I have control of everything (domain + server). There aren’t currently any backup plans in place as other things got in the way. There was some discussion of setting up a Bitwarden premium account which would let someone have emergency access to the server passwords, but I’d need someone to volunteer for that now (if anyone’s interested helping the admin side of things, lmk).
And thinking about it, I should probably remove tom from the admin list just so people don’t contact them with random queries.


Or people asking questions answered in the article.


This seems way less insane than the ‘let’s model online age verification on pubs’ laws we’ve seen in places like the UK and France.


Chav isn’t really a slur, it’s derogatory sure but not a slur. Also, plenty of British people throw around racial slurs, it just sounds like you know mostly nice people.
A ‘mode’ in emacs is a set of bindings which associate specific keys with specific functions.
Not quite, a mode is basically a lisp function defined with a different macro that integrates it into the various systems (like showing up in the modeline when active). It can do basically anything, including setting keybinds.
‘modes’ can be stacked on top of each other, with higher modes being able to intercept key presses before they reach lower modes, and changes / manipulate lower modes (I think?)
No, a keybind can only run one function and what that function is is whatever last defined a binding for that key. Like, if one mode defines a key to be something and you activate another that also binds that key, the latter takes over.
Emacs does have something like you describe, where functions can be ‘advised’.


Oh damn, I’ve missed the last two of these. Thanks for still doing these, there’s always some new stuff I like in them.
Edit: God damn, new Angelmaker goes hard.


I only saw this because someone reported it. Not good enough for the Illuminati apparently, despite being so, so gullible 😔


I’m not exactly happy with it, I’ve stumbled upon useful threads on that forum from searches a couple of times, but I just can’t justify the risks to user safety and potential legal culpability for the admin team. Their Lemmy instance was suppose to shut down in August, but yet it’s still up and federating.


Same people that run lemmy.one that left CSAM undeleted for months. I simply don’t trust the people to moderate the instance appropriately given they didn’t do so with their Lemmy instance.


Seconding Thunder (currently writing this in it).
Some apps I like:


if god didn’t intend this, why did they make me this way 🤔


Not really, Chrome has an overwhelming dominance on desktop despite not being preinstalled on any desktop operating system.


Flax is from Northern Ireland, I don’t know why they feel it’s so important for England to adopt their toxic flag culture.


I don’t see why it’d have to be limited to Piefed instances and we can do certain heuristics to test if an instance is good for a user’s location (Piefed’s instance chooser does this).


I’ll defer to you given I don’t do outreach while you do. Honestly an ideal would just be a simple website that chooses a random instance from a list of known good instances and takes them through the sign up process.
But the Green party’s primary support is from young people in urban areas, generally not people with assets. While the party certainly has had a Tory element in its electorate who matches what you say, it’s pretty reductive to say they’re the parties primary supports. There’s a reason the only MP the Greens had for over a decade was Brighton Pavilion.
