@collectifission Okay!

I just noticed you need to fill the description of "What server/hardware your instance run on?", in the admin settings, for this tab to show up.

I'll report it to our dev'. Thanks!



Does anyone know what the collective noun is for a group of people who have all been found liable for sexual assault? Asking for a friend, and suggestions welcome!


We will need to retire the option to use namespaces in Redis (i.e. setting the REDIS_NAMESPACE environment variable) in Mastodon 4.4.

If you run a Mastodon server and currently use Redis namespaces, please have a look at this discussion and leave some feedback:

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/d…

Thanks!

how can I, as a single server self-hosting admin, determine if I'm impacted?
in reply to smeg

@smeg if you are self-hosting a single instance, not running multiple or using your Redis for something else, you should not be affected.

What's up with mastodon.social instance @Gargron?
Yesterday it was cdn.concert.io and today it's admanager.concert.io.

There is absolutely no explanation over why they are integrated with the instance. Once again thanks to #TrackerControl which exposed these integrations.

It's time to ditch the mastoson.social instance.

in reply to Eugen Rochko

hey, thanks for the clarification. I found the reason why it happens. It appears that mastodon.social and concert.io are depending upon fastly.net for CDN services and hence there is an overlap of IP address which #TrackerControl identifies as an outgoing request to the Advertising portal concert.io.

Apologies for the trouble @Gargron. I will take this as an issue with #TrackerControl to see what can be done.

#PPOD: Happy St. Patrick's Day! On August 7, 2003, the Aqua MODIS instrument acquired this image of Ireland on the first day this summer that most of the island wasn't completely obscured by cloud cover. Ireland is called the Emerald Isle for a good reason. It is draped in vibrant shades of green amidst the blue Atlantic Ocean and the Celtic (south) and Irish (east) Seas.

and this dangerous fallacy is being sucked up by the current UK government too.

bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crr05j…

Needless to say the innumerates that run this government (Starmer, Reeves, Streeting) have been got into believing this nonsense , McFadden) based on what they are told by Kyle, our science and technology minister, who gets his understanding from a chatbot an by the lobbying and backhanders they have been getting from the AI tecbro vendors.

And by believing nonsense numbers predicting how useful AI could be in replacing workers that were made up for the Tony Blair Institute by another chatbot.

An Australian super fund has been hit with a $10.5 million penalty for greenwashing.

The Federal Court found Active Super, formerly known as Local Government Superannuation Scheme, misled members and potential members by saying it had eradicated investments in gambling, coal mining and oil tar sands.

The fund also claimed to have eliminated Russian investments following the country's invasion of Ukraine.

9news.com.au/national/active-s…

Justice David O'Callaghan found that between February 2021 and June 2023, Active Super actually held investments in these types of assets, including coal miners Whitehaven Coal and Coronado Global Resources. #greenwashing #auslaw #auspol #superannuation



Das ist sehr erfreulich, genau das, was ich mir vor ein paar Wochen gewünscht hatte. Weniger erfreulich ist, dass Deutschland in diesem Text leider gar nicht vorkommt. Gibt es solche Initiativen auch bei uns? ft.com/content/cdcbe3df-9475-4…
