@freemo I've heard the term "elephant gun" many times. What caliber is required for those giant mammals? (Elephant, Rhino, etc)
@freemo The squirrel is an exaggeration. A pellet gun with copper pellets was sufficient for squirrels. At least Northern VA squirrels. If squirrels in Alaska are anything like their mosquitos . . .

@elduvelle Those terms are meaningless anymore. Ask about more specific issues. E.g. Do you support proxy wars? (No) Do you support Universal Basic Income? (Don't Mind) Do you support Medicare for All? (No) Do you support WHO for new World Dictator? (No)

@customdesigned Neat. Just keep in mind that this is not a proper reply to the toot you quoted. For that you should use the normal reply button. They won't get notified (unless you add a mention to them in your quote), and the threading gets broken up. The quote is more meant to put that post in the spotlight with you adding commentary.
@trinsec Just tried it. Thanks.
Sadly, I am unlikely to be able to make it, even online.

What is a "retoot" on Mastodon? I keep seeing it mentioned, but there doesn't seem to be such an option.

As someone who is acrophobic, I'm having a hard time with "Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom". There are some games where I can set this aside and remind myself it's just a game (like "Breath of the Wild"), but "Tears" seems to double-down on it.
Yes, the real reason multicast was disabled was billing issues (reasonable - figuring out how to pay for things is a tricky part of engineering). So it does need an overlay network. M-bone was an early IP4 multicast network. Looking into whether internet radio (and tv) uses m-bone or a successor.

It's trickle-up economics.

It's intriguing how overconfident house cats are against animals that are much larger than them

That... is... brilliant! Even if only to get them out of the regular lanes!
A Dutch supermarket chain introduced slow checkouts for people who enjoy chatting, helping many people, especially the elderly, deal with #loneline...

Can we please stop throwing around the threat of defederation?
Defederation shouldn't happen unless an instance is a cesspool full of terrible behavior with an admin unwilling to deal with it.
Annoyances like spam can be dealt with by admins without scorching the Earth and going nuclear.
Lets not turn the #Fediverse, where instance are supposed to be part of a larger collection, into islands of instances that have cut themselves off from others because of annoyances.
@lauren @wordshaper @timbray That's not to say SIP servers aren't useful for other features, like conferencing, consolidated logging or voice message services for an enterprise, etc.
@lauren @wordshaper @timbray What happens is that the IPv4 net becomes a switching fabric for the real network protocols that run on top of it. That is fine, except for users not in the know, who are shocked to learn you don't actually need, e.g. SIP servers - just connect directly to the called party.
These overlay protols tend to use crypto to authenticate source IP - which allows for secure source routing, replacing SSL certs with firewall rules, and other benefits. I see IPv8 is incorporating much of those ideas.
