Countries are a stupid and entirely artificial concept.
When you are forced to belong to one or the other the concept becomes altogether more sinister and authoritarian.
#Fedilab is now ready for the new #Mastodon quote feature.
We opened an issue so accounts can manage the default policy for quotes in their profile and Mastodon devs already added it.
In this process, our main issue was to keep the compatibility of the quote feature that was previously implemented for others software (as they work differently - no policy). Fedilab will be able to detect and support both of them.

Allow to manage quote_policy through API
Pitch Could quote_policy be added to accounts/update_credentials and accounts/verify_credentials endpoints like it is already done for privacy and sensitive in account source? mastodon/spec/request...stom79 (GitHub)

On 30 August 1918 Fanny Kaplan, a Jewish-Russian member of the Socialist-Revolutionary party shot and wounded Vladimir Lenin as he was leaving a factory in Moscow.
Kaplan viewed Lenin as a traitor to the revolution after the Bolsheviks enacted one-party rule and banned any opposition, thus laying foundations for the authoritarian state USSR became for the next 70 years. Kaplan was captured by “Cheka” and executed 3 September. Shortly after Bolshevik came for all other opposition parties and Red Terror started.
Back then very few Western socialists saw Bolshevik for what they really were. In 1922 anarchists Alexander Berkman and Emma Goldman wrote a dramatic letter “Bolsheviks Shooting Anarchists”[^1] which was received mostly with “tsk-tsk that was just another West-sponsored attack on good-willing Marxists-Leninists” by the Western left. One of the most precise analyses of the Bolshevik movement written by English socialist Bertrand Russell “The Practice and Theory of Bolshevis “[^2] was mostly met with… hostility.
If you are left-wing and honestly want to learn on past mistakes, I very much recommend Russell’s book - it’s a good read and it will tell you everything you need to know to understand the thinking and rhetoric of today’s #Russia

There was a whole international mission, including a significant Czechoslovak garrison operating in Siberia and helping the Whites. But what has been largely lost in the public discourse over the 70 years of Soviet narrative being dominant globally is that Bolshevik had overthrown the legitimate temporary government of Russia in 1917, not the Tsar. The actual Tsarism ended in February 1917 and was replaced by Russian Provisional Government, involved many Russian parties and was recognised internationally. The latter was the primary cause for the international intervention - Western countries simply supported the legitimate democratic Russian government at its request.

More Accessible Public Transport, For Everyone (w/ @urbanmobilityexplained)
Watch this video ad-free on Nebula: nebula.tv/videos/rmtransit-mor…
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to use public transport when the system wasn’t designed for your body? For many fat people, daily mobility means facing barriers like narrow seats, tight turnstiles, and inaccessible toilets. In Brussels, Belgium, the association Fat Friendly is working to change that.
In this video in collaboration with @urbanmobilityexplained , we explore how fat people experience public transport in Brussels, and how city planners and authorities can create more inclusive and accessible spaces for everyone! Mobility isn't just about getting from A to B, it's about making sure everyone feels comfortable along the way!
= Respect & Kindness =
We’re talking about making public transport work for all body types! Please keep comments respectful. Fatphobic or discriminatory remarks will be removed. Huge thanks to Marie-Amah and Pelphine from Fat Friendly for sharing their story on camera. Let’s make this a safe and welcoming space for everyone!

The image depicts a coastal landscape in black and white. In the foreground, the dark, rippling sea stretches across the bottom of the frame, with gentle waves visible. The middle ground features a rugged coastline with cliffs and vegetation, where the land meets the water. In the background, rolling hills and distant mountains create a layered effect, with the sky above filled with clouds. The lighting is soft, with some areas illuminated by sunlight, creating a contrast between light and shadow. The overall composition emphasizes the natural beauty and tranquility of the coastal scene.

EMW, Trabant, Wartburg: Wie viel sind Autoklassiker aus der DDR derzeit wert?
Nach dem Ende der DDR wollten viele Besitzer ihre Autos aus einheimischer Produktion nicht mehr fahren - heute sind die ostdeutschen Autoklassiker als Oldtimer gefragt.n-tv NACHRICHTEN
Das Bild zeigt eine klassische weiße Automarke mit einem auffälligen roten Kühlergrill und einem ovalen Nummernschild mit der Abkürzung "DDR" und der Nummer "8318". Die Karosserie ist glänzend und weist eine runde, voluminöse Form auf, typisch für Fahrzeuge aus der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Die Scheinwerfer sind rund und symmetrisch angeordnet. Im Hintergrund sind weitere klassische Fahrzeuge zu sehen, darunter ein rotes Auto und ein beige Auto, die die Umgebung als eine Sammlung von historischen Autos andeuten. Die Umgebung wirkt wie ein Museum oder eine Ausstellung, mit einer Backsteinwand im Hintergrund.

Under the Trump regime, a group of Trump voters in Arkansas are building a whites-only community with no access for any minority (including LGBT), and with home schooled children, German sheapard dogs, a fondness for traditional German music, and Swasticas.
Trump and Stephen Miller must be popping a bottle of champagne tonight, because this seems to be going right according to plan.
(I am so glad I lived to see the wonderful America that was before the Trump regime)
On the face of it, it doesn't seem terrible if all the racists go and live in one place and leave the rest of us alone.
I'd guess however, that such people can't really live in their bubble and be content, especially when it turns out that life with only white people is really nothing special or exciting.
They'd need to keep the rhetoric going and demonise the people living outside their borders, making the whole area unsafe.

Naming things is hard. Sometimes you can't think of a name at all; sometimes there are too many choices; and sometimes there's a name that attracts you like a black hole – you can't resist its pull, but it has a fatal flaw.
One thing I work on in my day job is a free software project called "Tarmac Trace Utilities". "Tarmac" is the name of a file format (a textual trace of everything an Arm CPU did); TTU parses and indexes a Tarmac file and then provides command-line tools to work with it.
It also provides a reusable API, allowing third-party tools to do their own custom analyses. But the API is only in C++. I sometimes wonder about writing a set of bindings for some easier-to-use language like Python.
The question is, what would I call that Python module?
The irresistible but fatally flawed answer: PyTTU.

There's an old Soviet #joke, which thanks to neoliberalism, applies in several countries now :
A man goes to a newspaper stand every day, buys a copy of Pravda, glances at the front cover, curses, and throws it away.
After a few weeks of this the seller just has to ask what's going on: "why do you always look at the cover but never inside?"
"I'm looking for an obituary."
"An obituary? But those are in the back!"
"Oh no, the obituary I'm looking for will be on the front page."
