Funnily enough the Catholic Church definitely does not sanction the “Easter Bunny”, they merely tolerate it

The waiting list is still very long at this point. Probably don’t expect to get in for like 2 weeks…

What you see on Bluesky is a lot of people using their own domains for their handles. They are not hosting their own instances though, it’s only their identities. Their connection to the AT protocol still goes through the central Bluesky server.

Theoretically, yes. Practically, the way their model is set up, it costs a lot to host a federated server so no one is doing it.

I can see why you like it, fassgealterte Langeweile

I like the way we handle it in German, where Klassische Altertumswissenschaft is the study of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome as pioneered by Friedrich August Wolf in the 1700s, and Altertumswissenschaft is used for the more broad study of antiquity.

anti-italian sentiment

It is widely disputed that Columbus ever was or was considered an Italian.

That’s a very condensed version of Ukrainian history since 1990 lol

Oh my bad, I misread it. My point that Lebanon says nothing major is going on on the ground still stands though.

It’s not the quite same thing. Ukraine immediately shouted “Russia is invading us and trying to push through to Kiev!” Both the lebanese caretaker government and Hezbollah are saying that there is no permanent Israeli army presence on Lebanese ground. Israel claims to have sent soldiers into Lebanon, but no one on the Lebanese side is confirming that.

Given that the state-run media used to fearmonger with horror stories about Germans before Tusks party won the last election… I’d think it’s only partly a joke. Tusk knows that there are Poles who still think Germans are all criminals (like vice versa in Germany).

The statistics thing is a downside of how Mastodon implements ActivityPub.

Two possibilites:

1. I think you can simply hide the counts if it irritates you.

2. You can install Fedifetcher to pull in missing interactions to your local server: https://github.com/nanos/FediFetcher

Watching it wouldnt help you in this case since… artistic choices in adapting it lol

Bratislava instead of Pressburg, Ljubljana instead of Laibach, Zagreb instead of Agram.

Lwiw/Lemberg or Brno/Brünn is probably both used.

Prag and Warschau as well as Krakau are firmly used instead of the local ones.

In German in recent decades it’s fashionable/expected to pronounce central European cities the way the inhabitants do. Probably due to the wars and the ethnic transformations…

This is the US, minors posting themselves would also lead to arrests.

(And the actual platform with a reputation for minors selling their nudes would be Snapchat)

The article explains it in one case, an adult woman verified the account and then they posted a minor’s videos on it instead.

But the article also said that they only know about 30 cases in 5 years in the US. Which doesn’t sound like a huge amount to me personally (still too many obviously)

Yeah.

Diaz set up an account and had a woman verify it as hers. That woman, whom police didn’t identify, later quit OnlyFans. But her account remained live and accessible to Diaz. He filled it with videos of the underage girl

That’s really not easy to catch, no matter what platform you are. Some people will do complicated shit to evade the eyes of the law for their illicit activities.

At least here in a european countries, taxis and hotels were overregulated and monopolized af. The business models of Uber and Airbnb may not have been the best at the start, but like you say: it was a needed disruption.

My bad. Doesnt change what I mean though: the AI should not say “it’s also great to put glue on the pizza” - it should either not reference that at all or say “fucksmith on reddit recommends glue on pizza”.
