This is sad. When the streaming services first came out, they provided access to so many quality TV shows and movies. I thought it was pretty cool when they started producing content of their own.

The quality of these offerings has devolved. I have not watched the films mentioned in the article. I checked them out, but they looked like crap.

@abeorch @gotosocial @elena i just need you to open altgr.xyz/2025/08/24/y-aqui-va… in your browser. Before the commenta there's a button "Comentar en el fediverse" pressit and enter your gotosocial server and check if you see the post in gotosocial. If you see it, please like it to know if interactions work fine from that platform. Thanks. ✌🏻
in reply to Carl O.S. ©

when I enter my server name I get « 404: Not Found

GoToSocial only serves Public statuses via the web.

If you reached this page by clicking on a status link, it's likely that the status is not Public. »

I have to say, I have 3 federated Wordpress sites and never had to use a button like that… basically when you follow a blog on the Fediverse and reply to it from here, the comments sync seamlessly…

in reply to Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂

So the problem with GoToSocial is that it doesn't have a client part. It's a pure server and you need a different client app to access it (e.g. Phanpy, Elk, or one of the many mobile apps).
That is why the reply link doesn't work. There's simply no API for it, even though the server itself is mostly compatible with Mastodon, this part will never work. 🙂

@elena @abeorch @gotosocial

in reply to IrgndSonDepp

Ah so not having used Gotosocial yet (hence batting it onto @Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂ - Are you saying that it does not even have a native webclient like Friendica? - Interesting
in reply to abeorch

I actually almost exclusively use the #friendica web interface rather than a mobile client.
in reply to abeorch

correct.
I don't think it gets mentioned very often and in reality it isn't much of a hindrance. But I also only learned about it from the docs when I was already committed to deploying it. 😅
@elena @gotosocial @carloshr
in reply to IrgndSonDepp

yes there are no native clients but wonderful options like masto-fe, elk.zone and Phanpy (I cycle between the three)

@abeorch @gotosocial @carloshr

in reply to Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂

@elena @abeorch @gotosocial yes, I know it's necessary that button. I just want to make it easier for visitors to be redirected to their fediverse servers. It just my caprice and parte of my learning process. I like to do this kind of things.
I really appreciate your support. Thanks a lot! 🙏✌🏻
in reply to Carl O.S. ©

Si es un bueno function. Para me se funciona perfectamente. Puedo usarlo para iniciar sesión en mi servidor de Friendica.

Haunting Ghost Sculptures! (12 Photos)


Perched above Lake Como, the Castle of Vezio (Varenna) hosts an ever-changing display of ghostly figures—life-sized sculptures that seem to linger between worlds.


Each summer, visitors craft these eerie forms from gauze and chalk, leaving behind spectral guardians that silently watch over the lake.

As autumn fades to winter, the elements reclaim these fragile apparitions, ensuring that no two seasons look the same. This ephemeral tradition transforms the medieval ruins into a hauntingly beautiful blend of history, art, and imagination—where every visitor leaves a ghostly mark on time.

A Silent Watcher Over Lake Como


A ghostly figure leans forward against a stone railing, gazing endlessly over the waters of Lake Como. The flowing white fabric, shaped by time and weather, gives the impression of a lost soul frozen in place.








A Haunting Presence in the Castle Ruins


Seated on the edge of an ancient stone wall, this spectral sculpture appears deep in thought, its hooded form blending into the medieval surroundings. Its hollow face and draped fabric create an unsettling, almost lifelike presence


Guardians of Vezio


One of the many ghostly figures scattered around the Castle of Vezio, this statue appears to stand watch, its faceless form turned toward the horizon. Over time, the elements will erode it, leaving only a memory behind.

While loading the kayak I took this photo of the sky. The feathery clouds and a faint halo around the sun stayed with me while I was on the lake.
I shared the lake with a Loon and a Belted Kingfisher. And, since it is a long weekend, with a few motorized boaters. Some of them don't care about the wake they leave behind when passing a kayak.
But since they are so fast, I still quickly had my peace and quiet.

Public toilets make cities more walkable. Cities that are working on the Transition need to consider opportunities for making toilets available to pedestrians and bikers.
in reply to Evan Prodromou

Besides encouraging active transportation, public toilets just make people feel like they're part of something bigger. That the city they live in recognises their basic needs and is competent enough to accommodate those needs. It's great for social cohesion.
in reply to Evan Prodromou

Well said — it’s such a simple piece of infrastructure, but it really communicates respect and care for the people who live in or visit a city. A small investment with a huge impact on dignity and community. 🚲🚶‍♀️🚻
in reply to Evan Prodromou

Fun fact: Rotary International is responsible for the first public toilets in Chicago in 1907. Back then "the city they live in" wasn't into the biz of public comfort, or sanitation.

A lot of the public infrastructure that people take for granted today is the result of service clubs formed at the end of the 19th and the start of the 20th centuries.

LIBERALS: "Why does the right keep voting against their own self interest??"

THEY DON'T. Let me explain.

Their interests include racism.
They voted for the racist.

Their interests include white supremacy.
They voted for the white supremacist.

Their interests include misogyny.
They voted for the misogynist.

Their interests include transphobia.
They voted for the transphobe.

Their interests include fascism.
They voted for the fascist.

YOUR interests are equality and prosperity for all people. They voted against YOUR interests. They voted FOR theirs.
