@GreySkies @novid ergo, it is not inevitable.

@trendless@zeroes.ca avatar

@GreySkies @novid a) you can't know that because you can't know how it will affect anyone in the future, even yourself; and b) how does one value life? I believe you're miscalculating of the costs.

Let's talk about how we can help/encourage/support the people around us, how we can help defray their costs, not spread FUD about how expensive it is.

Intentionally or not, I am responsible for that which I cause. Anything I continue to cause after having it brought to my attention is no longer unintentional.

@PrecautionaryPrinciple Hugo at MastoHost is an absolute star and I can heartily recommend his services to anyone who wishes to avoid the hassle of DIY Mastodon -- great pricing, unimpeachable integrity, and has been a huge help not only while we subscribed, but also after we advised we were migrating and throughout the move. 👌👌👌

In addition to all sorts of backend admin improvements, having migrated to our own infrastructure allows us to add a bunch of tweaks to the main UI. The first of these is a new 'site theme' in three palettes: Elephant, Elephant High Contrast, and Elephant Light

For folks new to Mastodon, it may ease the transition

Thanks @rolle for coming up with a sleek design and writing the CSS and @stux for shoehorning it into the menus

RAT performance optimized when testing 3x at 48hr intervals is asymptomatic, 2x if symptomatic

Exercise caution in public settings, even if initial RAT is negative

False-positive rates are low, suggesting repeat testing not needed when positive on 1st or 2nd try

Continue to practice mask wearing and social distancing until infection is ruled out

This formation just passed over my home, minutes after a warning emergency alert was broadcast.

I've never seen anything quite like it -- the photo doesn't do it justice.

When you define 50%+1 as "everyone" and dgaf about anyone else… that's what this is a pandemic of. Sorry 20M Canadians, 168M Americans, et al

So, let's backup, questions about server blocking.

As we know, the Fediverse is a whole bunch of servers that talk to each other, so you see posts from people on other servers, unless your server BLOCKS that server, then you will not see their posts and they will not see yours.

But what if users on servers your server does not block boost your post? Can the blocked server users then see your post?

Can you see blocked server posts boosted by users on servers your server does not block?

@trendless@zeroes.ca avatar

@mastodonmigration yes and yes. In my esteem, it is this design failure that has lead to the culture of "if you don't block them, we'll block you".

Just subscribed to my first kbin 'magazine' (equivalent to a subreddit) from my Mastodon account -- as easy as copying the link to said magazine, pasting it into the search/explore section, then clicking to follow like it's any other fediverse account

This is the link I copy/pasted 👇

A turning point. Mastodon is a far better source of information on the Russian situation now than Twitter. Follow the Russia and Ukraine hashtags.

Even if prevalence in the population is "only" 1 in 20, let's stop talking about 'vulnerable people' and start talking about 'people'

“People with long-term COVID experienced substantial decline in eGFR within one year from the infection date. The prevalence of proteinuria appeared to be high. Close monitoring of kidney function is prudent among patients with persistent COVID-19 symptoms.”

Most studies found that face are beneficial against viral respiratory infections, such as -19

Mask efficacy depends on the material, layers, fitting on the face, and user compliance

respirators had maximum efficacy, especially when used continuously
