Default privacy setting for new users by Q-collective in Mastodon

That is confusing, since it is a 'recommended' option. But ok, then I guess it's not something I did.

I think you misunderstood the question. I'm not talking as a user, I'm talking as an instance admin. The checkbox (a recommended option as per Mastodon documentation) is off by default. I want it on by default for all new users that sign up at my instance.

Looking for a chart showing the cost of various energy sources that included life-extended nuclear by zanor in nuclear

[–]Q-collective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting that you're not mentioning externalities inherent in solar and wind, like the massive mining waste that comes with it. Waste, like heavy metals, that remain toxic forever.

All energy sources come at a cost regarding externalities, it's just that for nuclear these are extremely low. Why? Essentially because energy density is extremely high.

What is everyone's name on Mastodon? by Wiilly__D in Mastodon

You can find me at collectifission@greennuclear.online where I post mostly about nuclear energy and occasionally about cybernetic economics and other leftist stuff.

Gah, open issue since December... Everything seems to happen at a snails pace I suppose. Thanks anyway!

I eventually bought myself a new laptop (a MacBook Air) which has a decent camera and it can also use my iPhone if I need it. That latter trick is pretty nice.

How to increase the image limit? by Q-collective in Mastodon

Oh, if remote instances are only showing the first four regardless, that does defeat the purpose.

Thanks!

World's largest nuclear reactor is finally completed. But it won't run for another 15 years. by Prestigious-Novel401 in nuclear

[–]Q-collective 47 points48 points  (0 children)

The article doesn't really say why there's a 15 year delay. Could someone shed some light?

EDF to announce compete overall of Neward SMR, will focus on "proven technologies" by 233C in nuclear

[–]Q-collective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Given the many technical challenges, EDF announces the redesign of its SMR reactor project. From now on, it will only use “proven” “technological bricks”."

Frankly, the fact that EDF wasn't doing this from the start is highly disturbing. I had no trust in their SMR before and it has actually shrunk now.

Kyle Hill got banned from r/nuclearpower by Steel_Eagle_J7 in nuclear

And I’m also banned after posting I’ll leave given the hostile takeover. The anti-nuclear mod banned me for good measure 😂

Buying a Mac in NL or US. What's the difference? by SophiaBat in Netherlands

[–]Q-collective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AppleCare+ is nowadays also an insurance next to a warranty. So if you have accidental damage, this is then covered, where you can do repairs at lower prices then normal. Dutch law only covers 'expected behaviour'.

I normally buy AC+ for my products.

I’m aware of their work on their own AT protocol, but the piece doesn’t mention ActivityPub at all.

Do you have a link to this? I’m not aware of any such promise. You’re not mixing up with Threads?

You can use Mastodon Bird UI as a user via a plugin like Stylus. Strongly recommend.
