if they were local ops, they’d be happening more or less uniformly all over russia instead of what we’re actually seeing, which is that they’re happening near the ukrainian border and steadily moving further out as ukr drone tech improves

They did not respect the greatest generation that’s why the 60s and 70s in America were so interesting

What makes you think those are commando infantry operations by locals rather than airstrikes from ukraine

Russia Ukraine vibes

The Russian occupation is actually turning out more or less fine, the Russian government is better at finding and eliminating organized dissent than at pretty much anything else. They’ve been having some trouble against the regular army however

He wasn’t actually president when they decided that

no thank you I actually like chatting over a websocket connection instead of having to refresh a page every two minutes

The og Nazis were also big fans of amphetamines actually

there have been many attempts but unfortunately the evangelicals control the banks/payment processors so it hasn’t happened

man after my own heart

Matrix/element is good for private group chat but quickly falls apart for any public/semi public scenario where you might need automated moderation :( discord still undefeated there

Are the jetbrains ides open source?

Could also be someone doing market research/looking for ideas

yeah that was my bad I might be a little stupid.

I got confused between the relay crawling pdses to store their records for retransmission vs an appview storing records for serving them to clients. Both involve processing similar (v large) amounts of data, but the latter is actually more expensive because you’re also transforming the data to make it useful to clients, so it’s still neat they got it working on a raspberry pi

They have said that in production, their appview takes up about 30 servers while the relay takes only one. Apologies for the rude tone of the post https://bsky.app/profile/why.bsky.team/post/3lku2o3n6es22

Can you explain what do you think “backfill” means in the context of the linked post?

Sorry if that sounds disrespectful but we kinda need to have shared definitions for stuff

They could have idk, introduced sanctions at least. They could have stopped military cooperation and threatened to form their own alliance. It was a deeply unjustified, dare i say criminal war that needed a more forceful response than Europe was able to come up with. I have no great love for the couch fucker but he’s correct here

Censorship requests from the Turkish government are only being applied in the official bluesky app. Third-party apps continue to show censored posts. Feels like that might be relevant

Several people have self hosted relays. Afaik nothing that anyone has used in “production”, everyone just uses the default one. I expect that will change as people figure it out, and trust in bsky pbc drops with things like the current Turkish censorship incident

The code to run a relay is here https://github.com/bluesky-social/indigo

I am functionally a pr dude for atproto (bluesky) on here because people repeat so much disinfo, and I have “someone is wrong on the internet syndrome” 😭

However, atproto and bluesky are still distinct and I am pretty appalled at a fair amount of bluesky’s recent decisions, esp this one
