Yeah I’m trying to look at this and understand almost anything from this and it’s actually impossible.

Repealing Section 230 would actually have the opposite effect, and lead to less moderation as it would incentivize not knowing about the content in the first place.

Not how it works. Also your use of “becomes a publisher” suggests to me that you are misinformed - as so many people are - that there is some sort of a publisher vs platform distinction in Section 230. There is not.

This is frankly bizarre. I don’t understand how you can even write that and reasonably think that the platform hosting the hypothetical defamation should have any liability there. Like this is actually a braindead take.

Some good titles in this batch. Started playing Lightyear Frontier last night.

Spiritfarer. Probably one of the most touching games I’ve ever played. What Remains of Edith Finch. Stardew Valley. Firewatch.

IMO this is a wild recommendation to give to someone that doesn’t do a lot of reading.

@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

Great recommendation. Extremely easy to get into, great compelling character voice, and most of the entries in the series are very quick reads.

Sadly it has been more than 12 years we’ve been waiting for the next book. 🙁

Looks interesting, but of course we all want to see more.

It’s a sandbox. My prediction is that it could be fun for up to an hour.

Back in 2001 the recruiter at my high school very nearly convinced my girlfriend at the time to join up. She was not cut out for that life, and did eventually back out.

I feel the need to be pedantic here: the first amendment has nothing to do with speech on private platforms.

Nah the last thing these shows need are a bunch of armchair experts chipping in.

I think there may be some room for improvement on messaging there.

… I feel like you can do this with the Mastodon admin already. Preferences > Administration > Custom Emojis. Enter in the domain whose emojis you want to see / get, search. Click the “select all” checkbox at the top, copy. If there are multiple pages, go to the additional pages.

That’s true and fair.

Nothing actually. Faircamp is not actually inherently related to the fediverse.

Here is an explainer on architecture. It might be helpful. blueskyweb.xyz/…/5-5-2023-federation-architecture

With BlueSky moving towards finally opening up federation, I'm interested in how people feel about it?

Would you be open to the idea of Mastodon, Lemmy, Pixelfed, and other Fediverse platforms adopting the AT protocol in order to federate with it?

If those technical hurdles could be overcome, would you support your instance federating with BlueSky?

Does the same go for other commercially-owned platforms, such as Threads and Tumblr?

@fediverse

I would like to see some sort of bridge built to allow communication between AT protocol services and ActivityPub protocol services.

hybridhavoc ,
@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

Unfortunately it seems like development on Tumblr has been reduced to a skeleton crew. I wouldn’t hold my breath for ActivityPub integration on that front now.

hybridhavoc ,
@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

The path forward I think would be some sort of a bridge service. Think of it as a translation layer that could take in updates from both ActivityPub and AT, and present to the opposing side like it were native. Something similar was developed for nostr to communicate with the fediverse, and it seems at least feasible in this case as well.

hybridhavoc ,
@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

Seems like there is a lot of people in this thread that are confused about BlueSky federating even means. BlueSky’s plans for federation have nothing to do with the fediverse. It’s about enabling federation with other AT protocol services, including self-hosting a personal data server.

Would love to see them come to the fediverse, even if it was just something as simple as a bot. Their site is all RSSed up though. Can sub to the whole site here: aftermath.site/feed

Or just the Video Games category here: aftermath.site/category/video-games/feed

Played Just over the weekend. Good, short game.

According to numbers shown on https://fedidb.org it basically already has. Monthly Active Users is only about 17% of total users.

This kind of retention rate is not uncommon in free social services.

What sci-fi would you recommend next?

I have soon finshed all of The Expanse (which I have enjoyed immensely) and last month I finished Peter F Hilton’s Pandoras Star. While I enjoyed the second half of Pandoras Star, they (it’s a trilogy) are such heavy books with rather slow pace. One of my favorite reads last year was Recursion by Blake Crouch - it’s fast...

hybridhavoc ,
@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

Children of Time is a must-read IMO

hybridhavoc ,
@hybridhavoc@lemmy.world avatar

I would usually recommend some Alastair Reynolds to anybody into science fiction. I always suggest starting with House of Suns because it’s a stand-alone novel that is really good and will give you a pretty good idea of what to expect from his writing. But his Revelation Space series is where the bulk of his writing is. However, I wouldn’t call his work fast paced. So you might not get into it.

I have recently been reading the Murderbot Diaries. They are extremely easy and enjoyable reads. Could definitely give those a try.

If you enjoyed Recursion, you would probably like another book by Blake Crouch, Dark Matter.
