The model year and other relevant info is found in the first part of the VIN. There’s no legit reason for it to demand the whole thing, which it does.

Further searching turns up the information that “federated” Bluesky PDS instances are limited to ten user accounts each, and API usage limits which may constrain things further. So that would explain why there aren’t any big ones.
So far as I can tell they do all still “federate” through the central server, not directly with each other. So there being not much point in it may also explain why it hasn’t caught on.
Almost as bad as Threads, really.
Well, what’s a popular server? Are there several big ones? Sorry, but I really don’t understand why the answer isn’t turning up in web search results.
PS: Are you sure it isn’t just people who’ve done the “set your domain as your handle” thing but even so are still on the central one? Because even if they have made some small progress towards decentralization they absolutely have not gone so far that there isn’t still a central one.
Is it really? Seems hard to find out. Anyone have a list of Bluesky servers other than the central one with open signups?

Me? I’m not so anarchist that I personally have a problem with pledging allegiance to a flag or whatevs, just anarchist enough that I find it somewhat odd when people assume that everyone is part of “you” and “us” groups of that kind.
I guess it’s just that having to acknowledge the sovereign powers of some country other than the one you’re applying for citizenship in is unusual enough to make this sort of weird power to define our views of the world that the modern state has achieved stand out a little more than usual.
The intention is good I suppose, but it seems unfair to those who don’t believe that nation-states in general have rights that should require our affirmation, even while they have many powers we must respect. Are they also made to affirm the right of Germany to exist? They’ve made a rule which denies would-be citizens the right to espouse anarchism, which seems like a step in the direction of removing human rights.
tl;dr: Here’s everything you need to know about the fediverse, assuming you’re never going to use it. Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads, Friendica. Now, back to our regular coverage of all the biggest social companies, including TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and Reddit, as well as funding and acquisitions of new social startups.
I mean he’s not winning the election anyway, may as well go for it.
I wonder what would happen if he announced tomorrow that he had a really good acid trip the other day and came to the conclusion that what the government must do is abandon the F-35 jet fighter deal, stop subsidizing oil companies, stop subsidizing car companies, stop pretending that rapid population growth is good for us, nationalize most of the telecom sector, get serious about fighting back the power of the other oligopolies that run most of the country, double the carbon tax, cut the income tax, eliminate most of the deductions that make it so complex, tax capital gains at the same rate as other income, consult with economic experts willing to design an effective regime for preventing businesses from growing too large, renew efforts for electoral reform, cancel all the bad Internet bills, fund electrified passenger rail transport, and run all government systems with 100% free software.
I have no data on that. Cheaper and easier to get tlds like .world might be the most dangerous of all.
Ah, so chimps are monkeys in the same way that whales are fish.
Mark Carney, apparently. I thought he was still Governor of the Bank of England, but he went on to work for Brookfield and Bloomberg and is now being talked about as a likely successor to Trudeau. Perhaps Canada will follow a few years behind the UK. Some seemingly endless years of thorough mismanagement by the increasingly delusional Conservatives, followed by a nominally left-wing party lurching to the right to occupy the conservative but slightly less-insane position the Tories once held.
Can someone explain for the non-biologists? I never heard of chimps being classified as monkeys.
If it’s that bad, could you maybe give people a hint as to why we’d want to watch it and what it has to do with linux?
They’re probably just as dangerous as .com sites.
The problem remains: Who else have they got?
If we’re including television I’m disappointed that nobody mentioned Blackadder.
If not, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Suddenly I’m worried about AI’s energy draw. “6 percent of global electricity” is not a small amount of electricity.
