You’ve reminded me I should donate again, its been a while… though one small correction, O- is not the most common at all. It makes up under ~10% of the population as a rule: https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/blood-types

Probably both this and cloudflare caching. Looks like I set CF to cache for 1 year at some point, I can lower it… but that won’t “fix” this, only limit the time its an issue for.

Yes, and that has put a smile on my face.

Saying this is not racist. It’s not “neo-Nazi” views. You claim it is as an excuse to be intolerant towards those people. No matter how you try to sugar coat it, you are being intolerant.

Except these are views held by self identitifed neo-nazis. Just because non-nazis also hold that view, doesn’t change they fact they are neo-nazi views.

There will be no tolerance of nazis or their offensive beliefs here. To that end I’ve revoked your mod role. Further antagonism will result in a ban. I’m not interested in discussing this. If you continue to trolling while trying to give the impression of good faith discussion, you’ll be banned.

His term has covered 4 months so far… Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr.

No idea where it’s from, but I used it as a kid too. Also munted, though that has fallen out of use for the similar sound to another word.

You’re wrong, I’ll leave it at that. Won’t be replying any further.

With the resources available its not feasible for AZ to develop/deploy custom solutions that can be resolved by remote instances with trivial configuration changes.

I’m not going to address specific parts of your post, suffice to say I disagree on almost everything you said.

As I said previously, if you have a workable solution please do devlop it and submit a PR to the lemmy devs. I’d be happy to try your suggestion should they roll it in.

You’re contradicting yourself there. By definition adding an external service is a customization to lemmy. I’m not interested in running un-vetted software from a third party.

This has been discussed previously with a request from a reputable source to batching content from LW. That setup required an additional server for AZ, close to LW. And for LW to send their outgoing federation traffic for AZ to it, which then batched and send to the real AZ server. This offer was declined, though appreciated.

I’ve been transparent and open about the situation. You seem to think this is the fault of AZ, and we’re willfully not taking an action that we should be taking. This is not the case.

As it stands the issue is inherent with single threaded lemmy federation, which is why the devs added the option for multiple concurrent threads. Until LW enable this feature, we’ll see delayed content from them when their activity volume is greater than what can be federated with a single thread. To imply this is the fault of the receiving instances is disingenuous at best, and deliberately misleading at worst.

Note I said lemmy AND the activitypub protocol, ie lemmy does not currently have this capability. If it were added to mainline lemmy I’d be open to configuring it, but its not so I can’t.

The root cause of the issue is well understood, the solution is available in lemmy already: multiple concurrent outgoing federation connections to remote instances. AZ has had this configured since it was available. LW have not yet enabled this, though they’re now running a version that has it available.

Appreciate the offer, but I’m not interested in customising the AZ server configuration more than it already is. If you write it up and submit a PR that the main lemmy devs incorporate, I’d be happy to look at it.

That isn’t how lemmy and the activitypub protocol work. Source instance pushes metadata about new content, remote instance then needs to pull it. If we’ve not received the push yet, we can’t pull the additional info.

It sure doesn’t feel like autumn so far

Not sure how I should feel that the bubble I live in seems far more accepting and empathy towards asylum seekers.

I don’t think the people I live/work/socialise with are particularly extreme… but according to this we’re collectively not representative of wider Australian views.

I choose to believe their sampling was flawed and somehow only sampled the worst of us.

Not sure about the whole picture, but credit to Keating for bringing in compulsory superannuation.

But… Offspring! Weezer!

Good. Public office should not be a shield for objectively bad actions.

Buddha Boon!

I do, but the bloody shiraz is my favourite, and I’m out. Good news… I got two good drinks out of it.

I think this bottle is faulty… its contents seem to have evaporated and the bottle is nearly empty ☹️
