Mitchell Boatman, "In surprise move, Whitmer announces plan to reopen shuttered Palisades nuclear plant" https://eu.hollandsentinel.com/story/business/energy-resource/2022/09/09/plan-to-reopen-palisades-plant-announced-just-months-after-closure/68188201007/
First Diablo Canyon (Ca), now Palisades (Mi), at least the US-American seem smart enough to keep or reopen their #nuclear power plants. Notwithstanding the nonsense that is happening in Germany, most regions in the world (Europe, Asia, the Americas) seem to accept and push for a nuclear renaissance. -

Theresa May pays tribute to Queen Elizabeth II in Commons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5nyH2CG7rY
A wonderful speech: thoughtful, reflective, at times very funny, echoing itself the trope Theresa May ascribes to the late Queen: "a woman of dignity and grace." -

Remember early this year when I was so broke I had to schedule and pre-plan meals? Now it's quite the opposite. There is money in the bank account (more than usual) and I can spend a bit more on books and stuff. And that although the war in Eastern Europe has its severe impact on the economy and energy prices in this country. Very strange. But I don't plan to go on a spending spree but rather keep keeping costs low. At least financially, the times are good for me right now. -

Right now, should it ever come to awards in the #fediverse, I have two in mind: one for best admin-ing and one for best parenting/graddadding. And I know exactly whom I would nominate. :-) -

It's not just a "bad scenario", to me it's an intentional splitting of the fediverse, a purposeful subdividing of the #fediverse into mutual compatible / incompatible sub-diverses. Primarily for reasons of power and dominance, not to improve user experiences. -

Paul Watson, "No one dreams of England’s future any more" (2018) https://www.lazaruscorporation.co.uk/blogs/artists-notebook/posts/dreams-of-englands-future
«England seems locked into a present controlled by an imagined story of the past, but with no imagined story of the future to aspire to.
The problem with “much like it is now, but with the obvious bad bits gone” (which could arguably be referred to as “centrism”) is that “how it is now” absolutely depends on “the obvious bad bits” to keep it going: poverty, destitution, and food banks for one portion of the population is the essential underpinning foundation that allows an overabundance of affluence for a few, while keeping an electoral majority in just enough relative comfort — or at least the tantalising vision of that comfort being attainable — to keep voting for more of the same. It’s a very clever and controlling balancing act.»
What Watson identifies for England seems to apply to many other places elsewhere. Recommended to read.
Thank you @scribe for pointing to it. -

I'm not quite sure I understand what "compatibility" of groups in MS and GS means, esp. when in v3 of GS devs try to ensure compatibility with various other "projects". Or do you presume that groups may work across GS and some other "projects", but not with Mastodon? Would that still mean that people on Mastodon can't subscribe to groups on GS? -

I'm tired and should go to sleep but outside the #rain is falling. Sitting at the open window listening to its sound in the night.

Ah, now I remember, we had this topic a year or so ago. I guess back then it was that Mastodon doesn't support the group feature which is why there has been set up a specific instance for "groups", pretty much like lists : https://a.gup.pe/ But perhaps people from mastodon can join fedigroups in gnusocial v3? @administrator -

Oh no! And I thought gs.net is able to provide group access activitypub-wide.
Perhaps @administrator can help? -

The site started to slow down after you fixed my issues with image upload. Perhaps the deletion of the thumbnails-cache? -

If you are western middle class, stop your yoga lessons immediately, reflect on the cultural appropriation involved, and check your privileges.
