This sounds great. Just be aware that broadcasting on certain frequencies is ilegal in some places. You might need a license to broadcast in the ham spectrum, and even then, broadcasting encrypted messages could be prohibited.

That one hipster who cares about vegan vinyl: “My time has come.”

autotldr Bot , in Billie Eilish announces eco-friendly album plan - BBC News

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Eilish, who is a long-standing climate campaigner, told Billboard magazine she felt compelled to tackle the problem.

"My parents have always kept me well informed and hyper aware that every choice we make and every action we take has an impact somewhere or on someone, good or bad, and that has always stuck with me," said the multiple Oscar and Grammy Award-winner.

Greg Cochrane, who hosts the music and sustainability podcast Sounds Like a Plan, called the star's announcement a "significant step".

Eilish's announcement comes after the star criticised artists who release multiple vinyl formats to boost album sales, calling the practise "really frustrating".

After the singer's mother, Maggie Baird, interrupted to point out that multiple vinyl sales "counts toward number one albums", Eilish responded: "I can't even express to you how wasteful it is."

Single LP colours will be made using BioVinyl - which replaces the petroleum used to manufacture Polyvinyl chloride with recycled used cooking oil.

poVoq Mod , in how to avoid spam in decentralized networks?
@poVoq@slrpnk.net avatar

There is a project working on shared & real-time updated block-lists (and a chain of trust model) that originated from within the Lemmy community: https://fediseer.com/

It was set up pre-emptively last year when automated bot accounts were exploding, but somehow that never turned into much spam. But the infrastructure is there now and basically waits for a real-world test case.

There are also several auto-moderation bot frameworks, such as Threativore which we have running here on SLRPNK and which is planned to be integrated with Fediseer as well.

XMPP also has a similar concept with https://xmppbl.org/ and IRC had a similar system for spam IPs for a long time.
