I think Mastodon's proposal for starter packs is a significant positive evolution of the way Bluesky rolled them out. I wound up on a bunch of packs there and it was…not a great thing for my specific brain and purpose.

I do hope the people in Masto's comments saying […]

[Original post on mas.to]
Firstly, it's important to us that users have control over whether they appear in Packs on Mastodon. Early design explorations with our concept of Packs led us to the following possibilities: • Packs will become an extension of discovery. Users who wish to opt out entirely from Packs will be able to do so by disabling the existing setting, labelled "Feature profile and posts in discovery algorithms". This will signal that an account cannot be added to a Pack. • Users will be notified when they are included in a Pack. Unlike on Bluesky, where users wishing to remove themselves from a Starter Pack must either report the Starter Pack, or block the user, users on Mastodon will have a more neutral mechanism to remove themselves from a Pack they do not wish to be part of. (note: we implemented something similar with the Quote Posts feature, where an original post can be removed from a quote post; this same idea would flow through to Packs).

Darf man denn jetzt noch "Das ist kein SCHNITZEL" auf diese Veggie-Packungen drucken; und kann darüber bitte ein Expertengremium aus Philosophen, Semiotiker, Poststrukturalisten entscheiden?

Hello Masto-peeps who use screen readers!

I just learned that I need to put alt text on URLs for more accessible PDFs, but -- what should it say?

I am formatting academic citations that include a URL, so all the information about where that link will take you is in the text. I don't want it to […]

I "vibecoded" a little thing for #emacs (KWIC index based on helm). The LLM was able to come up with a solution that works (impressive given the niche domain), but the solution was ugly and slow. I could get the LLM to fix some of these issues but it was getting increasingly tedious as the code […]

I have an offer to make: do you want to run an instance on the fediverse for a group that's underrepresented here?

I'll pay the bills. Period.

I'll do admin if needed (software updates and the like). But you decide what kind of community you want it to be, so you put together the mod team.

DM me.

Folks, read every word of this.
Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg · 17h I write as former Head of Maritime Section of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and Alternate Head of UK Delegation to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea Prepcom. 1) The flotilla is on the High Seas and not in Israel's 12 mile territorial sea. Israel has no jurisdiction. 2) The Israeli maritime blockade has been in place for 17 years and is an intrinsic part of the long term occupation found illegal in the ICJ advisory opinion 3) It is therefore not a short term measure in time of armed conflict as specified in the San Remo manual 4) In any event the San Remo rules explicitly state that humanitarian supplies may not be blockaded 5) The UN Commission of Inquiry has already determined that Israel is committing genocide. The blockade is plainly a part of the machinery of such genocide. For reasons 1 to 5 the Israeli attack on the flotilla is plainly illegal. 6) On the High Seas, the law applying on each ship is the law of its flag state. An attack by a state military warship on a vessel on the High Seas is an attack on the flag state of the vessel attacked. 7) Acts of illegal possession of vessels or abduction of crew on the High Seas should be pursued by each flag state as crimes within their domestic jurisdiction, not only in international law. 8) So the Metropolitan Police and DPP have an obligation to investigate and act over the abduction of persons from UK flagged vessels on the High Seas. This applies to each flag state mutatis mutandi. I hope you find this helpful.
