@LouisIngenthron Correction, **all** problems eventually go away if you ignore them long enough. The only problem is they almost always will get much much worse before they go away :)
The quality of any area ont he face of the planet can be measured by the density of books in that area, not just stores but the books themselves. This works both for cities and individual homes :)
Actually if you use enough antibiotics it is verry effective at killing viruses. Afterall viruses cant propagate if the host is dead :)
Even after the switch from Twitter to #Mastodon, and even after migrating from my previous instance to the haven that is @QOTO, I keep on having occasional discussions that I find very frustrating.
@fidel's [words yesterday](https://blog.fidelramos.net/personal/new-years-resolutions-2024) resonate with me:
> _“I wasn't anticipating […] the mental and emotional effort of opposing the hegemonic zeitgeist. This is something that has taken a toll on my happiness and mental health. It would be easy to bow to the majority and return to the fold, to avoid #arguments and #fights, but I think I would feel bad about myself for intellectual dishonesty. […] One thing is the ideas you have and another is that you do not want or can dedicate greater efforts to supporting them in opposition to almost the entire society. I will focus on educating my children in the values that I want to see in the world. […] I will dedicate #SocialNetworks only to the topics that interest me […] and I will reduce ideological topics.”_
I'm thinking of giving up #microblogging, at least for a while.
We'll see.
@georgetakei Wanted to wish you a Happy New Years. All the best to you.
Hey I am the author of fedipage, sorry im just seeing this. I am happy to help.
So for starters the documentation is pretty much the readme. It goes over, step-by-step, how to setup an instance.
As for the point, its largely so you can host a static page, like a blog, and have that page look like and be interact-able as if it were a fediverse/mastodon instance. In other words you can follow the instance as you would someone from the fediverse. New posts (pages, blog posts, whatever) will show as a post ont he fediverse and show in followers feeds. Their comments and replies to post will show as comments on your blog attached to the particular blog post, etc. Boosts and likes also will show up on yoru blog page.
It basically lets you have a static site generated that has all the features of a fediverse account more or less.
Hope that helps, let me know if you have any questions. For reference the fedipage git has the instructions int he readme here:
https://git.qoto.org/fedipage/fedipage
There is also fedipage (@fedipage). It looked like what I needed, but I am very confused to what it is supposed to achieve. And I didn't find any documentation.

@garyackerman The first step in any proper debate is to insult the other persons intelligence, we all know that!
@daniel_westhof Im curious in what way you feel its harmful to the environment. Not disagreeing with you just never looked into it. Is it the chemical aspect, or the noise pollution?
A simple fact: this night attack on Kyiv was the largest ever combined attack using cruise missiles and hypersonic ballistic missiles. No one ever repelled an attacked of such scale and such weapon. Ukrainian Air Defense did. No one ever did attack a civilian city with such weapon and scale. Russia did. … In the meantime some European and American politicians are “afraid of escalation”. While Putin and russians with such attacks cynically spit in your face demonstrating that they know about their impunity, whatever they do. … What’s on agenda today? “Deep concerns”? Blah, we heard you… Give more weapon to Ukraine to protect itself and don’t limit how this weapon can be used to push back — that’s the only answer to abominable and cynical war criminals. // #russia #attack #Ukraine #kyiv #WarCrimes #supportUkraine
@AmpBenzScientist OH wait... blow "OFF" steam... I have blowing ON steam this whole time... well that explains a few things.
