A common argument against aliens visiting earth is that travel between stars is impossible because of the long distance and speed of light barrier

This argument is fallacious. We have no idea whether faster than light travel is impossible, or whether or not there is some way to circumvent space thru wormholes or something like that. We simply do not know how it could be possible

I'm not saying it IS possible, I'm saying we dont know either way

If you're up on modern physics you know that our current knowledge of how the universe works is extremely limited, we really have no idea what Black Holes are or how they work, we dont know how subatomic particles work, I think there's something like 11 competing theories of physics right now that seek to explain them and none of them are faring well against ongoing research

Again I'm not saying aliens do or could visit earth, but dogmatically saying its impossible is not "skeptical" but a dogmatic position following from faulty assumptions. An older an more technologically advanced species may well have figured these things out

Larte institutional actors? When has that ever been true? Is tiktok big because biden is on it? No platforms get big then institutions move in

@iju @aral well thats very silly

@iju @aral

Idk what you mean, there are in fact TERFs on fedi already there's an instance called spinsters i know of, of course they are blocked by most of us, no one is denying them access to the technology but we dont need to go out of our way to help them. That goes double for Meta or other mega corporations.

Just like the US government is perfectly capable of setting up an activitypub server.

Going put of your way to acvomodare the wealthiest and most powerful people on the planet against what may be the majority of one's userbase is certainly not becoming

@aral

He said this right after offering his service to the Whitehouse, what a friggin bootlicker

@aral

it's almost like they are, what do we call them, useful something or another

@k4r4b3y @silverpill

skimming thru the repos mitra is very impressive technically, i like the XMR support also ( i'll spare you my anti ETH rant)

Some questions:

So on the server side, the clearnet instances would just have to enable tor etc. to talk to the onion sites?

What If I was on a clearnet only instance, but federated with a mitra instance that boosted a post from say lainon@blahblahpoopoo.onion

Would I be able to see/interact with that .onion post *without* having tor enabled server side? Even if I federate with an instance that boosts it?

I suppose an issue would be interfacing between clearnet and darknet based hosts, I'd assume there's need to be instances that act as a bridge, and for the sake of anti-spam would be better to use an allow list than open federation ( we should all move towards allowlists anyway and formal processes for small instances to be put on allow lists because blocking individual instances is simply not realistic moving forward )

is is possible to put #ActivityPub on a distributed darknet like #Tor or #i2p?

DNS is and relying on datacenters is shit wastes money and sacrifices privacy, we could legiterally host most of our servers at home on the deepweb
