you can read a comparable news story on it from Seven Days: Sound Effects: In the F-35’s Flight Path, Vermonters’ Lives Have Changed

i can only presume the remaining 5% is owned by NFTs Georg, who lives on the blockchain and is an outlier who should not have been counted

barring an unprecedented intervention by a court i suspect we will not see democracy return to North Carolina in this decade.

i think it’s pretty safe to say that we’ll be talking about Artsakh in the past tense in the near future–not really sure what’s going to stop Azerbaijan from just annexing what’s left of it at this point short of Russian military intervention (a laughable idea).

rumors are now trickling out of stuff you’d expect if Azerbaijan was going to ethnically cleanse the region. unsurprisingly a lot of people in Stepanakert are trying to get out right now.

worth noting: it’s been a trend in the past few years for Democratic-run state legislatures (take for example New York) to introduce anti-discrimination laws for hair–and stories like this are basically why. certain kinds of reactionaries (usually in schooling) have increasingly been using hair as a stand-in for skin tone in basically discriminating against people.

i could write a lengthy comment here but to be brief: this is a great example of how a lack of good mod tools can basically ruin everyone’s experience in a federated system. both kbin and lemmy lack them so both become vectors of abuse and sincere users suffer because of it. everyone is worse for the lack of tooling here and it all but necessitates walled gardens or huge numbers of mods.

still broken; any changes in app functionality would be from apps patching the issue.

Incumbents Arroyo and Lara lose races in controversy-packed 2023 Boston preliminary election (wgbh.org)

Arroyo, who is known both as one of the council’s most progressive members and as a prolific legislator, is a scion of a well-known Boston political family and the first person of color to represent District 5, which includes Hyde Park, Roslindale and Mattapan. But in 2022, when he ran for Suffolk County District Attorney, the...

Good night and good luck — the final editorial of the Clayton Crescent (claytoncrescent.org)

For three years and four months, I have singlehandedly provided high-quality, professional news coverage to, for, and about this community. This began out of necessity because I knew no one else would do it if I didn’t. When I was laid off from the Clayton News during COVID-19, I immediately went into my home office, found a...

I don’t know how the creators expected Lemmy to grow with each instance’s storage and hosting costs also growing exponentially as the fediverse expands.

i’m unsure if this is a “failing” of Lemmy specifically or just a general design choice of ActivityPub federation but yeah it’s not ideal, i would say. beyond the huge issues if anyone posts anything that needs to be mandatorily reported it means we have like 100GB of images (mostly from federation–and mind you, while still not federating with lemmy.world which is huge) and growing. for smaller nodes of the Lemmyverse i honestly have no idea how sustainable that is.
