Except they didn’t interrupt voting. Go and watch the video, Maipi-Clarke clearly gives TPMs vote before the haka started. The fact that the report claims they interrupted voting clearly shows how bullshit the process was.

I think it’s you who are on your high horse. Claiming there needs to be some kind of “decorum” over a bill designed to strip rights from Maori is utter bullshit and frankly racist.

This is a great move. Governance is extremely important for bigger OSS projects, and the “benevolent dictator” model has its limits.

Spock would have to be DM. As a player he’d be the worst rules lawyer ever.

Unfortunately, AfD and Musk won’t hesitate to paint this as an islamist attack. They’ll just claim the X posts are fake if necessary.

It may even have been the attackers’ goal.

Mastodon is pretty different to its competitors. It looks similar to Twitter / Bluesky, but the way the social network functions is completely different.

It’s designed to be anti-infuencer… One of the things I hate about most social media platforms is a few people get all the attention. There are a few reasons for this, but it’s not really based on merit.

I think a lot of people joined Mastodon wanting a Twitter clone. It’s obviously not and Bluesky is, so people moved there. The approach Mastodon takes is far from perfect, and may not work out in the long run. But it seems like it’s worth at least trying something different.

OP is obviously very eco-concious… Instead of using an LLM to generate crap (and burn half the Amazon while doing it) they just recycled

He already bought NZ citizenship… Because we had a dumbass government at the time

Why would you have zero expectations that he’ll win? Were you not around in 2016?

We’re not in a movie. Climate change isn’t going be solved by one brilliant scientist. It’s not even a scientific/technology problem at this point, it’s a political one.
