Plamenu comes with extended PeerTube support.
Here's an example of what I mean by "extended": an unmodified Tusky client, connected to a Plamenu instance, is able to play a PeerTube livestream.
Plamenu caches the video stream, so dozens of Plamenu users on the same instance watching the same PeerTube stream put no more load on the source PeerTube instance than a single viewer, and I'm currently looking for a way for the Plamenu to participate in PeerTube's P2P, so we can reduce that even further.

@Pezito Personne ne sait, sur Mastodon, si j'ai la peau noire, blanche, ou entre les deux.
@cedesguin Moi non plus (enfin maintenant si puisque je l'ai dit, quelque part dans ces discussions). Seulement je pense qu'un harceleur, dans sa connerie, a encore assez d'intelligence pour trouver ses cibles. Des personnes racisées vont parler souvent de racisme, comme toute minorité va parler souvent de ce qui est important à ses yeux. Il suffit qu'un con voie passer quelque chose, qu'il creuse un peu et il peut se trouver une nouvelle victime. Bref l'anonymat ne suffit pas, je le crains !

I've heard thousands of climate denial arguments over the last few decades. But do you know they all fall into one of 5 categories?
1. It's not real
2. It's not us
3. It's not bad
4. We can't fix it
5. You can't trust the info/experts

Remember, it's okay to turn off the news for a bit.

@lavaeolus ah yes language, the notoriously well-behaved space over which it is easy to construct convex optimization problems.
For surveillance for copyright purposes, which is what Elsevier would want, it wouldn't even be the right tool since you are looking for exact partial matches. I see there is something about "registering" these hashes though, so who knows maybe they are trying to build a case for an abstract perceptual hash being copyrightable - which would be uh an extremely novel interpretation of copyright, and by "extremely novel" I mean exactly what copyright does not protect, ideas rather than works.
Trying not to go off the conspiracy rails before even checking out the thing itself, which seems to just be a container format for a bunch of different hashing methods over a single item.
@jonny @lavaeolus i'm not concerned about elsevier i'm concerned about the US security state attempting to leverage the ISO processes and the veneer of librarians to perform large-scale surveillance
Are they taking the piss?

@TheBreadmonkey i saw this too
@neil You need reminders?
@darkling I quite like Reading!
But going during festival weekend is not my idea of fun.
@regehr I thought this was interesting. This will depend on the problem, but except for problems where you go from zero to non-zero or near zero to not-near zero, where this almost has to be the case, I've found the opposite.
I'm not sure why this is the case; we're using fairly different setups, so maybe it has something to do with that? It could also be a coincidence.
@danluu yeah I don't know! but super interesting

I've been a huge fan of Keep It for ages, but couldn't grok why I'd also need Scrappy. Now I get it!

In addition to the many metadata items, the latest version of #Pixelix also shows the app/client which was used to post the image.
Same as the metadata, this only works for #Vernissage posts.

@ApostateEnglishman @ChrisMayLA6 Bear in mind one possible explanation for why the eukaryotic revolution took so long is that it took billions of years for the Moon to spiral far enough away from Earth (due to tidal drag) for the initial 70 metre six-hourly tides to subside, which tended to smash anything more complex than a prokaryote to pieces on coastal rocks. We don't know: there are too many variables.
@cstross @ChrisMayLA6 That's an extraordinarily good point that I hadn't considered! Thank you.
