Wait, is it required to mirror the entire Bluesky history? Can’t you just store only new messages? Because the storage requirements (4.5TB according to the article) make it almost impossible to self-host.

While technically simple, it demands a lot of coordination as the actor has to time their lines and actions flawlessly for the trick to work.

They also moved its date to June in order to move the Canada GP right after Miami in May, preventing a trip to North America in the middle of the European leg of the Championship.

Maybe Andretti’s bid has a better chance to succeed now that Maffei is out of the picture? https://www.si.com/fannation/racing/f1briefings/news/could-greg-maffei-s-exit-open-the-door-for-andretti-s-f1-entry-01jck4bmk8k6

Oh no, but it’s a neat feature, I wish Mastodon had it!

I’m not sure what you mean. There is a list feature much like the one that existed on Twitter, but since I don’t use it, I don’t know if you can share lists.

Edit: I tried the List feature and it does not work like on Twitter (at least the way I remember it): it only can only contain users you already follow and is private. It acts more like a feed with only a subset of your follows.

BTW, the author of this article still advertises its Twitter account 🙃

Inb4 The Guardian will have a presence on Bluesky but not the Fediverse 🙃

I use Slim Social for Facebook which really is a fancy WebView wrapper for Facebook’s mobile website.

TIL that Schneider Electric is a French company. I always assumed it was American or Swiss.

I was thinking of benefits along the lines of merch shop, meet’n’greet, possibility to get autographs, etc. It is not clear if there will be such things ATM.

I really wonder what being there brings that watching the event live from home does not. (it has been confirmed that the event will be broadcasted live: “Fans who cannot attend in person will still be able to watch the action live, with broadcast details and further event information to follow in the coming weeks.” )

Colapinto already 9th mostly thanks to Brazil 😮

I have been contemplating moving to SearNXG for a few weeks, but I have a hard time finding whether I can configure things like domain down-ranking/blocking or custom bangs and lenses, does anyone know if you can do that on a user or instance-level?

Worst case scenario it’s an opportunity to practice my Portuguese 🙃

BTW, if someone manages to find subtitles for Globo’s Senna by Ayrton 👀

The racing scenes look like video games cinematic 😬

I know it doesn’t have the budget of movies like F1 or Rush, but still, that’s kinda disappointing.

I still don’t get why Strava activities are public by default and why they do not make their users aware of it. I remember having to rummage through the settings to make activities private by default.

If you want an experience similar to Arc without the AI nonsense, there is Zen Browser, a Firefox fork with vertical tabs, profiles and side panel.
