There’s a number of problems with this.

It would only work if enough communities and instances adhered rigidly to similar editorial decisions about what is “political”. I don’t think that’s achievable.

Mods would have to do the heavy lifting in tagging/ untangling things.

It’s not going to be as simple to implement as you think.

Posts are already categorised by community. You can block the vast majority of political posts by blocking a few communities and users.

At times if filtered out keywords like Musk and Trump. You don’t really need to implement a feature for this. Just get posters to include a tag in the title of their post.

Looking at your other comments, you’re not going to be deterred by these criticisms, so my suggestion would be to find the git repo and create an issue to get some proper feedback from other contributors.

It’s 6 months old.

Reported on by some major news outlets.

AfD has form for doing exactly this kind of ambiguous gesture.

Old mate didn’t provide any fascinating insights into the manufacturing practices of soviet era communism, they just trotted out some meme-level anti-capitalist vibe-based hyperbole.

I’m not going to engage in a silly argument about the merits of communism as opposed to capitalism.

I don’t think the SPF / DKIM / DMARC stuff is overly complex nor the core of the problem.

In my case it was recipients with bonkers microsoft exchange servers that just had weird ideas about who should be sending them emails.

For example, one thing that tripped me up forever ago was grey listing. Apparently the receiving server just wouldn’t acknowledge the sending server for an arbitrary period of time, say 12 hours or so. Spam senders would usually give up long before then, while a legit server would keep trying because it’s legitimately trying to deliver an actual email.

So my email-in-a-box type self hosted set up was fine really. Compliant you might say. But to send emails to this one in a thousand recipient I had to investigate what was going on and reconfigure things to ensure their server would interact with mine.

Another thing that can happen is that spammers just put your email address in the “from” field and fire off a few million emails. Obviously the DKIM signatures and SPF won’t match but it still just makes your future legitimate emails look spammy. Having the credibility of a larger organisation goes a long way in this type of instance.

I’m absolutely in the “don’t self-host email” camp. That said, I think it could be done reliably if you wanted to use someone else’s SMTP server and let them worry about deliverability. As in, have your mx records on your domain route to your MTA and dovecot, but set your DKIM and SPF records to match a third party SMTP server. You could use mxroute as an SMTP server very cheaply. There are others like the email API type services. I still can’t think of why I’d want to self host with all this drama but just an idea I’ve heard.

Genuinely wondering what portion of conservative voters support something like this.

It seems kinda indefensible really.

If a cop is terminated from one agency due to misconduct, why would you want them employed by your local agency?

Sorry chief you might have embarrassed yourself a little here. No big thing. We’ve all done it (especially me).

Check out huggingface.

There’s heaps of models you can run locally. Some are hundreds of Gb in size but can be run on desktop level hardware without issue.

I have no idea about how LLMs work really so this is supposition, but suppose they need to review a gargantuan amount of text in order to compile a statistical model that can look up the likelihood of whatever word appearing next in a sentence.

So if you read the sentence “a b c d” 12 times you don’t need to store it 12 times to know that “d” is the most likely word to follow “a b c”.

I suspect I might regret engaging in this supposition because I’m probably about to be inundated with techbro’s telling me how wrong I am. Whatever. Have at me edge lords.

Indeed.

The whole mess seems to have gotten so much worse.

I think most places keep a brush in the toilet in a fancy caddy. That’s because the expectation is that everyone scrubs any skid marks before leaving.

I suspect that the plunger is to do with standard sewage pipe guage rather than just “shoddy” workmanship or whatever. That’s why bidet spray is more or less mandatory in South East Asia, the sewage pipes just aren’t wide enough to handle toilet paper.

Water bottles for bikes suffer from this.

You gotta get them really dried out really regularly.

Like if you only have one that you use every day it’s just going to get gross no matter what.

It needs to be bone dry for a few days to kill everything.

If you have 2 and switch once a week, the one that’s out of rotation will dry out and any funk will just die off.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a plunger of any kind kept in someone’s toilet.

Is this an American thing?

Weird take on counter tops.

Things designed for many people to use need to be the best height for most people. I feel confident that most countertops are the best height for most people.

I acknowledge that they are too low for a tall person, and that they’re too high for a short person.

You’re pretty much just saying you want things to be designed for you and that everyone else should adapt to you, rather than you having to make concessions for others like everybody does.

I agree with you, but I’m not sure how great it would actually be.

I don’t know much about it and I suspect others will be along to correct me in a moment, but wasn’t this a feature of soviet era communism?

As in, capitalists all compete in a free market to produce the best chair for the lowest price. Communism is more efficient because we just direct a factory to make 2 types of chair, standard and deluxe.

I’ve had these dual wall glass mugs at home for a few years. So civilised.

1. Spray bum
2. Pat dry with TP

The tricky part with phase 1 is managing water pressure. Too little is ineffective. Too much blasts shit everywhere.

Do a test squirt into the bowl so you know what you’ve got to work with. Start with low pressure to get most of it, adjust angle of necessary, then hit it with everything.

No, not “more than”, or “as often as”, but more often than you seem to think.

In Australia it’s uncommon for someone to stay home exclusively with the kids for more than a year or so. Usually that’s the mother because she’s recovering from giving birth, breastfeeding et cetera.

Thereafter one parent works full time while the other works part time. In this phase it’s usually about income. Whoever can earn more works full time. That’s usually dad that’s working full time, but certainly not always.

Dad doesn’t need to be castrated and wear a frock or whatever to stay at home. In cases where mum and dad earn similar money dad might take back year off to stay home with the kids while mum works or something.

I don’t expect you to believe me, but since you seem to be marvelling at my extensive real world experience, I’m a tax consultant.

Do you mean to tell me that wealthy people own most things? I’m shocked!

I didn’t say mum and dad own Walmart. My point us simply that the “buy local” catch cry of small business owners isn’t as simple as you’re making out.

Again, I didn’t say small business owners aren’t allowed to go overseas. Merely that there’s no guarantee that buying local means your money stays local.

Yeah it’s just bonkers.

A criminal tried to seize power in a violent coup.

Not only was nothing done but voters elected him to be fucking president because they were confused about Palestinians and concerned about the price of eggs.

It’s not real, but it’s concerning that it sounds like something he might say.
