You mean the thing you get when you hover over someone's profile pic?

Why!?

I went a bit farther and used the built in variable to set color, as well as setting the font weight down to match the "n hours ago" text, and changing " - " to "@" so that the uesrname matched the standard fediverse string that you can put into search boxes

I'll publish this properly as soon as greasyfork sends me an email to authenticate my new account, but in the meantime here's the source. EDIT: Email has yet to arrive 13 hours later, I doubt it's going to. Anyone interested feel free to publish this somewhere it's easier for people to install.

$( document ).ready(function() {
    $( ".user-inline" ).each(function() {
        // get username URL and text, then remove username from URL and paste the instance name after username (not if instance is home-instance of kbin.social

        var homeinstance = $(this).attr('href') ;
        var myname = $(this).text().trim();

        var homeinstance2 =  homeinstance.replace( "/u/@" + myname + "@"  , '');

        if( homeinstance2  !=   "/u/" + myname ){ //show nothing if home-instance kbin
            console.log(homeinstance2 );
            $(this).append( "<span>@" +  homeinstance2 +"</span>" );
        }
    });
}); //end each username a href

var style = document.createElement('style');
style.type = 'text/css';
style.innerHTML =   '#content a.user-inline span{color: var(--kbin-meta-text-color); font-weight: 400}' ;

document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(style);


  

Rather I think they're diplomats in senior government rolls, because they're at the G7. In US terms think state department, not DOD.

Regardless the exact nature of the other meeting isn't the point. The general fact that DEI work is usually not the most impactful work you can be doing in terms of personal development and growth in the organization is, so saying that under-represented people need to lead it harms under-represented people.

It sounds like you were viewing the “new” tab?

I don't think so, but I couldn't swear to it.

thats not a lot of interaction

Probably we just have different thresholds for a lot. People seeing hate 3000 times on the platform seems like a lot to me.

Speaking for myself I've seen both 10A and ps making these comments. 10A has managed to amass at least -2732 downvotes, ps -653, that's not a trivial amount of interaction. I came across an antiwoke post on the front page (I think just right after it was posted, so bad luck). And I'm holding off advocating people move to kbin until I see a moderating policy that results in banning them.

With the very rare exception, absolutely.

It's literally a fork of wine.

But from a practical perspective, you tell steam to start the game and it starts it, installing and using proton as necessary. If the developers haven't configured it you have to first click a button in preferences that says "use proton" (paraphrased), but that's it.

I'm actually not from the US, I was just giving it as an example because it is the most famous one that unequivocally does include it.

What I'm really saying is "free speech" isn't really one thing. It means different things in different contexts. For instance the breadth of "free speech" you should allow in what you promise to repeat (that's what hosting something is) is much smaller than the breadth of "free speech" that you should not think less of someone for saying is in turn much smaller than the breadth of "free speech" that you should not wield the power of government to punish. And people legitimately disagree on where each of those boundaries lie.

I do think I missed the mark with the comment you replied to rereading it. I raised it because when someone says "It's not a free speech platform and no one ever said it was" they are using the american republican-troll's definition of free speech that means "anything but child porn", and I think your reply was misunderstanding their comment as a result. But I don't think I successfully conveyed my point.

It depends on your definition of free speech, the US constitution does consider it part of free speech.

The US constitution also considers free speech a right that protect a websites right not to repeat hate speech, not a users "right" to force a website to host their speech. In the constitutions view of the world free speech is protection against the government, not a tool to force other people to host your speech.

And where do you think a woman has more power? In a meeting on women's empowerment, or a meeting on... I don't know... how many weapons to give to Ukraine?

If you pull women away from the latter to send them to the former that is negatively impacting women's empowerment.

Like I said, the optics in this case make it worth it anyways, but it is not a clear cut rule where that is always the case, and it's easy to do it too often.

We still use DDT to control malaria.

I mean, if genders are equal then an equal number of men and women should be leading in matters of gender equality.

And there are real issues that stem from this. If you make it so that under-represented people always lead initiatives to improve representation, you are adding workload to the under-represented people involved in the activity (governance in this case), and making them even more under-represented in the rest of the activity.

The optics in this case are bad enough that the downsides of sending a candidate chosen in a gender-neutral fashion outweigh the upsides, but I'd definitely advise being cautious about assuming that's always the case. If anything it's the exception, not the rule.

And a public good. They keep things cooler when it's really hot out, keep things warmer when it's really cool out, mildly improve air quality, reduces noise pollution, provide measurable mental health benefits, and so on.

Around here removing big trees is illegal, on your property or not. I'm a fan.

Open soil instead of pavement also helps reduce flooding during heavy rainfall since the ground absorbs water instead of just making it run off to somewhere else.

I don't know if it counts as a "city" exactly, but there's still a lot of defensive locations. Concrete apartment buildings can take a hell of a beating and stay standing apparently. Houses are damaged, but they're still cover...

Shitty resolution, but here's a recent video of it: https://old.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/14ac2lu/ukrainianairassaultforcesfiringatrussian/

Actual article instead of a random tweet that contains no more information than the headline: https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/russia-wagner-prigozhin-putin/card/u-s-to-delay-new-sanctions-on-wagner-for-fear-of-siding-with-putin-j1EeoFqeLaWE2tO4m6uY

I mean, it's behind a paywall, but the part that they show to non-paying visitors is more than what is in the tweet.

Needs an "allegedly", apart from being a questionable source in the first place (as a random social media account, nothing against the person running it), the source you quoted makes it clear that they aren't confident in their own source.

I believe the relevant setting for notifications of replies like this one is the second from the top, unchecked.

While wearing jeans: Bottom, there are stupid little metal things that stick out and will scratch the screen otherwise

Otherwise: Top, it's more convenient.

With my current model of phone, bottom left/top right specifically. There's a camera bar on it that makes it easier to pull out that way.

Do you have reply notifications turned on in your account settings?

I've got comment notifications after federation kicked back in. Significantly delayed sometimes, like I noticed a reply and half an hour later I got a notification about it.
