I would dearly like to see more ActivityPub clients as opposed to Mastodon clients, and with the current sad state of proxy fetching anything not publicly fetchable is hard to observe for such clients. (Sure, they'd need the rest of c2s implemented to actually write something, but readonly ones are already pretty useful.) Thus I'd really like us not to do mostly-ineffective public-except-for-blocks posts, because they're not public enough for such clients to see them but also don't help that much against the original problem.

Note that some other instance could forward a reply to an instance of your follower. (You can't avoid that without giving instances of your followers an oracle for querying your blocklist.)

@niconiconi is there an easy to phrase heuristic for the value of the proportionality constant in the exponent?

@pixelfed do you already have a description of how this looks like from the pov of the activitystreams layer? In particular, is like to understand if/how other instances get to know the original post's author's wishes, so that they can apply them to comments they've received directly.

@whitequark I don't consider myself disabled in any way, and think this is a good advice for people like me too: i find it easy to enter a positive feedback loop of undersleeping and finding it fine to take a nap ~whenever reduces the strength of the feedback significantly.

@deirdrebeth @CAnxiolytic

Ah, right, you can jacket steel in something softer. Do you have some rough estimate of how large a fraction of armor piercing bullets contain steel?

@deirdrebeth @CAnxiolytic

But bullets are usually not ferromagnetic: they are usually made from lead (steel is (a) less dense (b) more expensive (c) harder).

@CAnxiolytic

Is there a hypothesis on what exactly happened (did the gun fire by the normal mechanism of the pin striking the cartridge or somehow else (e.g. due to sparking?)?)?

@lauren

I think that part of the situation is that you have more time to be confused and notice the confusion: due to Russia being at war, the coup attempt involves traveling larger distances and thus larger delays.

@wilkie

The way fedi works right now becomes increasingly confusing and messy the more examples of intransitive federation there are, though.

@keir do you know what created the faint vertical lines?

> Ale coś mi chodzi po głowie, że silniki się zasila ciekłym LPG, który odparowuje dopiero w silniku

Silniki z gaźnikiem zasila się gazowym LPG. W takich samochodach jest zamontowany wymiennik ciepła służący do ogrzewania LPG za pomocą chłodnicy, żeby go odparować (i dlatego te samochody trzeba rozgrzewać na benzynie i dopiero gdy chłodnica się nagrzeje przełączać na gaz).

Nie wiem jak jest z silnikami z wtryskiem.

Jeśli jest inaczej, to potencjalne rozwiązanie to użyć odparowywacza. BTW. Zauważ, że jeśli chcesz pobierać gazowe LPG z butli, to skądś musi przychodzić ciepło potrzebne do jego odparowania, więc tempo poboru jest ograniczone przez tempo wymiany ciepła między butlą a powietrzem. Podejrzewam, że samochód potrzebuje większego niż osiągalne w ten sposób tempa poboru.

It seems that microblog.pub does generate ldsigs for public activities when sending them out: https://git.sr.ht/~tsileo/microblog.pub/tree/v2/item/app/outgoing_activities.py#L222 (but apparently only when pushing, not when someone requests activities from it).

@ilja @rysiek

I thought that you could pass around activities signed by their actors (I recall a mechanism called Linked Data Signatures, but now when trying to look it up ended up in a maze of specs, all different: its spec was apparently subsumed by https://w3c.github.io/vc-data-integrity/, which uses some terminology that's confusing for me at first glance). Do I recall correctly that one could do that in principle in APub? Do you know if anyserver does that?
