Full toot

If you follow any of the #GoToSocial developers you've probably seen this going around already, but 0.17.0 of #GoToSocial will be the first release that includes interaction policies, aka reply-controls.

In the first iteration of this feature, you'll be able to configure your account so that new posts created by you will have an interaction policy set on them, which determines whether your instance drops or accepts replies, likes, and boosts of your posts, depending on the visibility of the post, and whether or not an account trying to interact with you is in your followers/following list.

So for example, you will be able to create Public posts that can only be replied to by your followers and people you follow, or unlisted posts that nobody can reply to or like, etc.

GoToSocial interaction policies will be a superset of other reply control proposals created elsewhere (and already implemented by softwares like Pixelfed and Peertube), so your GoToSocial instance should recognize interaction restrictions set not only by other GoToSocial instances, but by Pixelfed and Peertube as well.

If you're interested in reading about how this will work on a protocol level, you can take a look at the documentation here: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/federation/posts/#interaction-policy

Please note that this feature is not 100% finished yet, and may be subject to change before release. We're aware of where the headaches and difficulties are, so please don't reply to this post griping about them; we already know (and this instance is still running on 0.16.0 so no interaction policies yet).

Thanks for reading :)

Why are people getting bigger vehicles? It makes no sense.

So I enjoyed this. This is the kinda stuff that no one ever needs until they need, but it was insightful and so I thought worth a share.

Summary:

This video is the first part of a series about how to engineer the perfect pool. In this video, the speaker talks about the importance of variable speed pumps for energy efficiency. They discuss how to choose the right pump for your needs and how to install it. They also provide tips on how to save energy and money with your pool. Here are some key points from the video:

• Variable speed pumps can save you a lot of money on your energy bill.

Overall, this video provides a lot of valuable information about how to engineer the perfect pool. If you are looking to save money on your energy bill or improve the efficiency of your pool, this video is definitely worth watching.

Summary:

This video discusses the importance of both open ocean cleanup and river interception in addressing plastic pollution.

The speaker argues that open ocean cleanup is necessary to address the problem of plastic accumulation in remote areas of the ocean, such as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. This is important because plastic pollution in the ocean harms marine life and contributes to climate change.

The speaker also argues that river interception is necessary to prevent plastic from entering the ocean in the first place. This is important because rivers are a major source of plastic pollution in the ocean.

The speaker concludes by saying that both open ocean cleanup and river interception are important and that they can be done at the same time.

Summary

Here is a summary of the YouTube video 5 New Archeological Discoveries Of 2024 by Sideprojects: This video covers five archaeological discoveries made in 2024:

• The Apano Valley Sites in Ecuador: Archaeologists have discovered remnants of numerous ancient urban environments in the Amazon rainforest, home to an estimated population of 15,000 to 30,000 people. These settlements, dating back to between 2,500 BCE and 500 CE, feature distinctive mound-dweller designs and intricate agricultural systems. The cause of the abandonment of these sites remains a mystery, with possible explanations including volcanic activity, climate change, or conflict.
• The Lost Villa of Pliny the Elder: Archaeologists have uncovered a Roman villa in Poli, Italy, which they initially believed to be the lost villa of Pliny the Elder, a famous Roman philosopher and naturalist who perished in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. However, further investigation revealed that this was likely not the case, as there were many similar villas in the area.
• The Black Room in Pompeii: Archaeologists have discovered a lavishly decorated room in Pompeii, featuring black walls adorned with frescoes depicting scenes from Greek mythology. The room is believed to have been used for private parties and entertainment.
• The Breton War of Succession: This complex and confusing conflict involved a struggle for the Duchy of Brittany between two women named Joan, as well as their respective families and allies. The war lasted for several decades and had significant repercussions for the region.
• The Shadow of Vitré: This medieval castle in France was built by John IV, Duke of Brittany, in the late 14th century. The castle played a role in the Hundred Years' War between England and France.

These discoveries offer valuable insights into the lives and cultures of ancient civilizations, shedding light on their history, beliefs, and practices.
