This isn’t unique to the Green Party, pretty much all the major parties have internal divisions. Take the recent Labour stuff where the socialists have butted heads with technocratic front bench over the two child benefit cap. The Greens are different in that they don’t whip their MPs or Cllrs, as they believe they should be free to vote with their conscience, which has the major disadvantage of making the party line muddy and hard to count on.
Where have they done that?
Yeah, I’m not going to defend Mastodon’s frankly bizarre Like system. It’s not even a privacy thing as favourites are fully public.
It simply can’t really happen due to the technical way Mastodon and Lemmy function. I’m not sure if there is a way to address this on either side (or if the developers would be willing to do so even if there was).
Mastodon needs to implement group support, you can follow the issue here (don’t get your hopes up though).
Their app is open source, but it doesn’t give any instructions on how to self-host it, in fact it seems to not have been designed with self-hosting in mind given the forking section of the ReadMe:
You have our blessing 🪄✨ to fork this application! However, it’s very important to be clear to users when you’re giving them a fork.
Please be sure to:
- Change all branding in the repository and UI to clearly differentiate from Bluesky.
- Change any support links (feedback, email, terms of service, etc) to your own systems.
- Replace any analytics or error-collection systems with your own so we don’t get super confused.
The impression I get from Bluesky is that it doesn’t view federation as a core feature of its platform, just a nice technical oddity. I’m no expert on the AT protocol, but from a quick skim of the quickstart, their view of federation seems to be having disparate data repositories (Personal Data Servers) app developers can put their app data into. It doesn’t really seems to be about different software communicating with each other.
In contrast, ActivityPub is about passing JSON between servers in a somewhat standard format so different software can reasonably understand what that JSON represents and act on it in a way that makes sense for that software.
(But again, I’m don’t know anything about the AT protocol, I could be completely wrong here)
Wow, what an odd thing for NASA Commercial Crew to post.
How do you spend 250 billion million on something and the only way people hear about it is the memes mocking how much of a failure it is? Is Morbius just the standard Sony marketing strategy now?
I think that mostly depends on if these statues normally specify the relationship.
Bacuase you can upload audio files to Mastodon.
Guys, we can’t introduce a wealth tax, all the right people will just leave. I mean look at Switzerland, they’ve had a wealth tax for centuries and if there’s anything they’re lacking it’s rich people.
What a weird take. How is it daft for the British public to decide the rules public officials have to follow? If I fucked off to America two weeks into a job, I’d be fired in an instance; I don’t see why MPs should be held to a different standard.
I wouldn’t call cutting the Department of Health’s and Education’s budget by a billion pounds each not making the country worse.
Fun fact, Emacs added a command because of this comic, M-x butterfly.
Look, even the best education money can buy can’t fix some things.
I hope this is just the Murdoch press stirring shit, but it does sound like what Starmer and co. would do. Pack the Parliamentary Party with allies and then make them the only ones who can decide future leaders.
Reminds me of my favourite Yes, Minister bit.
When the only thing neuken me in my keuken is life. 😔
You’re probably right, actually:
Across the board, the British public are more positive about how the riots were handled now than they were at the time. Compared to a fortnight ago, the proportion of Britons feeling the police handled them well has increased from 52% to 63%, while the number believing the legal system has done a good job dealing with the situation has shot up from just a quarter of Britons (27%) to a clear majority of 57%.
Keir Starmer has also seen something of a turnaround. Now, the public are roughly evenly split on how the prime minister handled the riots, with 43% thinking he handled them well and 40% viewing his response as poor. At the time of the riots, the public had taken a significantly more negative view, with only 31% saying Starmer was reacting well compared to 49% who thought he was doing a bad job.
This improved view of the prime minister’s handling is apparent among all groups, but has been most notable among Conservatives, a third of whom (35%) now feel he did a good job, up from one in six (16%) a fortnight ago.
I haven’t got to this yet, but all I want to know is if the toff in my head ever shags the stable girl.
