We just released version 4.1.0 of NodeBB. Here are the latest features you can now take advantage of!

As an aside, for the first time in a long while, both @baris and I are working on the same codebase again. Up until version 4 was released, I'd been working on the activitypub branch and periodically merging in the latest changes from develop. It's nice to be home! :house_with_garden:

Improved federation of Group actors :left_speech_bubble:

We've improved the activity synchronization for followed group actors. Local updates/likes/etc. are now federated outward by the category in addition to those from remote users. Thanks to @rimu@piefed.social and @freamon who worked with me on debugging this one.

Mentions and Emoji now federating out in source.content :wave:

Emoji and mentions have been sent out to followers since v4, but that wasn't reflected in the raw markdown content that we also send along. That has been remediated now, and this change improves nodebb-to-nodebb federation.

Video object type now parseable :tv:

NodeBB is now able to ingest Peertube Video objects, and render then in a topic just like other pieces of content. Thanks @deadsuperhero@forum.wedistribute.org for prodding me to get this sorted out!

Therefore it's important to swirl the pot before pouring.

Civil rights activists in Germany have demanded an independent inquiry into alleged police racism after an officer shot a 21-year-old black man from behind, killing him after an altercation outside a nightclub.

The 27-year-old officer was suspended from duty over the shooting early on Sunday morning in the city of Oldenburg in north-west Germany pending a murder investigation, said state prosecutors. Fatal police shootings are relatively rare in Germany and prosecutors were quoted in local media as saying the suspension and investigation were “routine”.

Police have not identified the victim due to data protection laws but media and pressure groups have identified him as Lorenz A.

Moin moin liebe Mitbürger,

Wir hatten ja schon zwei Posts dazu, aber ich wollte gerne den Beginn der Sammelphase mitteilen. Wenn das Begehren durchkommt, dann wird es weniger Werbung in Hamburg geben, die Hälfte muss für kulturelle Zwecke benutzt werden. Aber das wichtigste mMn: Diese nervigen hellen Digitalen Werbedinger kommen weg, die extrem nerven wenn ich Auto fahre zumindest. Also bitte gerne unterschreiben, kann man auch easy per Post.

Vielen lieben Dank.

Use !friendica@lemmy.ca instead!

Normally when you need to wait at a crossing because it's red you take out your phone to waste some time. But you have to be quite anxious and look up if it's already green or not, otherwise you miss the green light.

But they help you out with that here in Korea by building in the traffic light into the curb. You're looking down on your phone and see the red line left and right of it. Once it changes to green you immediately are aware of it because it's in your field of view constantly.

Great invention!

I took the background picture just outside and put the stock picture hands with a phone on top of it so you can easier visualize it how it looks like in reality.

Michael Gloss, 21, was the son of CIA Deputy Director for Digital Innovation Julianne Gallina Gloss, and Iraq war veteran Larry Gloss.

Before arriving in Russia on August 13, 2023, Gloss was travelling around Europe. On his Vkontakte page bio, he wrote: "I ran away from home (and) traveled the world. I hate fascism."

On April 4, 2024, he was killed, likely during a Russian offensive near Bakhmut, however, his burial in the U.S. did not take place until December 2024, Important Stories reports.

Donald Trump has denied his previous statement about having a deadline to reach a peace settlement between Ukraine and Russia.

I feel like I remember seeing something like this get posted and celebrated in this or some other techie community, and I'm interested in screwing around with other OSes but I can't remember which one it might be. What's your favorite 90s-flavored Linux desktop environment / distribution?

This brief article discusses the possibility of near-term human extinction (NTHE) and reviews the scientific evidence supporting the case that NTHE may come to pass.

From the article,

The combined effects of the exponential rise of global heating, paired with the chaotic and uncontrollable momentum of cascading positive feedback loops in the climate caused by crossing irreversible tipping points, are already driving global temperatures to a difference of geological proportions before the end of this decade.

. . .

Just one major event could effectively eradicate the now fatally precarious conditions of human habitat on this planet and swiftly seal our fate into extinction.

The article addresses the following questions / points:

• Is near-term human extinction really possible?

• How soon is “near-term”?

• Is there any scientific research supporting the case for near-term human extinction?

• Where we are — a snapshot

• Sudden events likely to cause human extinction

• Scientists’ final warnings fall on deaf ears

• Final note on science and "certainty"

This is collapse-related because, with the rapidly approaching collapse of industrial civilization (considered by many to be the only realistic scenario we are looking at in the near-future), the possibility for near-term human extinction skyrockets.

We are locked into a trajectory of planetary annihilation and show no signs of slowing.

Further detail in providing an overview of our collective circumstance is continued in the article.

The secretive Russian satellite in space that U.S. officials believe is connected to a nuclear anti-satellite weapon program has appeared to be spinning uncontrollably, suggesting it may no longer be functioning in what could be a setback for Moscow's space weapon efforts, according to U.S. analysts.

Believed to be a radar satellite for Russian intelligence as well as a radiation testing platform, the satellite last year became the center of U.S. allegations that Russia for years has been developing a nuclear weapon capable of destroying entire satellite networks, such as SpaceX's vast Starlink internet system that Ukrainian troops have been using.
