I think this should be a warning to anyone running a federated socmed node. Since twitter had to deal with an absolutely massive userbase and high content generation rate, moderation required a full time department and even then it wasn’t perfect. Imagine having to deal with that as a large node admin.

Looks like they had to get this decision in before one of the members had to step down in a few days at the end of the month. The board isn’t allowed to pass decisions without a full board and it looks like with the composition of the current senate, the chances of any new appointee getting confirmed is slim. It would be interesting if dems could actually get their members in line to get an appointee through. The decision they did pass is wild though, if the majority of employees join a union, the company automatically has to either recognize or have the labor board run the recognition election. AND if they do any shenanigans, the union automatically gets recognized. I’m not really well versed in this so I assume “entering bargaining” means that they have to start contract negotiations. This eliminates or at least limits the ability for the company to influence the formation of unions.

Have you checked out hide glues yet? Hide glue is a type of adhesive made from boiling animal hides. It has a pretty long history. Titebond sells some under their brand, and Old Brown Glue is also a pretty respected brand. It’s a bit more expensive than Titebond 3, but that’s not too bad imo, especially since it’s natural and relatively easy to find. You could try using granules instead of the ready-made stuff, but it might not be worth the hassle for a one-time project. Plenty of information on usage on yt if you want to look into it, the search term has a exceptionally high percentage of old geezers which is interesting but also expected.

darkly pureblack, wish there was a pureblack compact though

Even if youtube wasnt already recording watch history under the table, all the data that youtube needs to generate meaningful recommendations is already there in my subscription list.
