What multi-lingual content support does #PeerTube have?

Does it support language-specific subtitles/closed captioning?
Does it support different audio tracks per-language?
Or at least linking videos together semantically with some kind of "this is a translation of the other video" relationship?

If not PeerTube, does anyone know of a different #FOSS video hosting software or platform for content creators?

Question for non-United States folks ... Is the adjective/description "US-American" common, or at least familiar to you? I noticed this caption on #wikipedia. (It's better than "USian," I suppose.)

Arguments against the U.S. using "American" as its demonym are duly noted, but unpersuasive. Look, no other country's name contains the word America. And every alternative is awkward.

By the way, do people from South Sudan, the DRC, or Chad criticize the Central African Republic for claiming "Central African" as their demonym? Have they considered "CA-Republican" instead?

Mein Nachbar erzählte mir gerade von einer Studie zu #Elektroauto s, dass sie bzgl. Umweltauswirkungen erst nach 350.000km mit einem Verbrennerauto gleichziehen würden. Neulich hab ich hier auf Mastodon von einer Studie gelesen, deren Autor:innen diesen Breakeven bereits nach 30-40.000km errechnet haben, aber ich finde die nicht wieder. Kann mir jemand helfen, diese Studie wiederzufinden? #askfedi

Question about US constitution

If the US Supreme Court makes a totally crazy interpretation of the US constitution, for example if they declare Trump president for life etc, what happens next?

Does that just get accepted as the law of the land by all American law enforcement and lower courts?

Is the US constitution kind of worthless then, if the supreme court has no restrictions on how they interpret it? Does this mean if a president controls the supreme court and congress they can do whatever they want with no restrictions?

Does anyone know a non-Mastodon (preferably #Akkoma, #Pleroma, or if nothing else, #Misskey) that has reasonable moderation but isn't completely free speech?
I'm looking for something that isn't too blocked, where people are reasonably good (no nazis, no trolls, etc), and where the moderation doesn't go into banning "reversisms" or other kinds of biased sjw crap.

Reposts welcome.

Fedi people with a website who are also pseudonymous, what did/do you use to register your domain name(s)?

I would like to be able to 1. pay anonymously, preferably using a debit card through a blind signature or zero-knowledge proof mechanism as privacy-friendly crypto is hard to find, and 2. not have to register using an email address, which again are not easy to get pseudonymously/anonymously.

Boosts appreciated.

ukpol, activism, internet moderation tools

#AskFedi

I am sending an email to my MP about the #OnlineSafetyAct and I would like to include in it examples of tools that enable individual- and community-based moderation as an alternative to government #censorship

Could everyone who sees this please comment with all that they know about?
Reposts also welcome.

Thanks very much!

Boosts appreciated! Seeking advice on bats/creatures living in one's walls, audio attached

Anyone have experience with bats or other creatures that could live in your walls? Neighbors said they saw bats fly out of our chimney and there's surprisingly loud, widespread creaking noises coming from a wall near it (including during the day).

Assuming it is bats, the US Fish and Wildlife service seems to have good information on bat boxes, but we aren't sure how to encourage them to move out of the walls.

If it isn't bats, then I got nothing.

I am hoping to get back into roller skating (quads) soon. Since I'm vegan, I'm very concerned about so many boots being made out of animal products.

I found a website that said that Riedell has a few vegan options. Any recommendations on durability and comfort? This would be indoors-only.

Thanks!

Got this one for a couple of bucks.
It is in a very non-working condition, basically nothing electrical is working.
The only thing left is a Cathode-ray tube and some speakers - the rest was thrown out long time ago.

So, I need some tips from #fediverse

What display-panel should I put in this one?

I am thinking, of reusing a raspberry pi and make it some sort of "media station" if possible. But first do I need to make the display functional.

Folks who have a single-person #GoToSocial instance: what's your setup/hosting situation?

I want to try it out but am waffling about whether to go with managed hosting, or a VPS, or what. I may honestly start off by self-hosting with #Yunohost on my old netbook simply because it's the easiest and cheapest.

asking for recommendations: sex toy for trans woman

#AskFedi: please recommend a sex toy for me?
- I like being penetrated
- And I can also enjoy some good stimulation of my girldick
- Even better if it’s ethically sourced
- Safe and healthy

Thanks!

If anyone knows this it'll be someone on Mastodon - someone gave me a sticker saying "Drink coffee and fight fascism" with a raised fist holding an aeropress. I stuck it on a notebook which I immediately lost. Anyone know where I can get another one/who the artist is?
