Nothing, and it’s already run by web3 folk

Like making a datacenter so hungry it needs an obsolete nuclear plant, yeah. They should be building new nuclear for existing datacenters.

My sister was telling me she saves space by deleting attachments from texts, but on the screen to do that, you have to select each one individually… There is no select all button…

But if you buy iCloud, it magically resolves the issue and your phone has free space again. Talk about friction points and abusing their position as makers of the os

Can they do the same thing on signal?

Do you propose some alchemy that transforms carbon to another element? Remove carbon from the atmosphere and stop putting more up in there.

Too bad all that cool stuff is negligible compared to what actually makes a difference

Well you see, it’s not wrong if the right people do it ;)

Laws that protect but do not bind

It’s amazing how simple something like this can be and still be effective.

Machine learning is not that necessary for this use case 😉

The best guide isn’t written down: don’t be afraid to try a few instances until you find one you like!

Once you’re on Mastodon and following people, you’ll start to notice the servers and gravitate towards the ones you like.

I would advise against mastodon.social since it is the biggest and also has some problems with moderation. But some people like it, so maybe it is good enough also.

To choose a server, check out https://fedi.tips/which-server-should-i-join-how-do-i-find-out-more-about-a-server/

The fedi.tips account also posts a lot of helpful tips and themed lists of accounts to follow/discover so I recommend following them too!

For some reason I thought Nostr was started up by someone else and Dorsey just liked it

What’s good for freedom is bad for ease of use.

There is a theory that sanctions against a country with a tyrannical ruler hurt the common people more than the oligarchs / dictator. But eventually they do make life more difficult for that ruler

I didn’t see anyone else say this so I’ll chime in: when I’ve had to keep bulky things on a keyring (a CPR pocket mask comes to mind) I’ll put it on its own small keyring and then hang that on the main keyring with the keys. It isn’t a perfect solution, but it helps a lot.

Why does this read like an ad for cybertrucks for people who would want to run over deer

My sister and her friends use Reddit now for things that they never did before.

I hate feeling like the things I called about (3rd party apps, my comments not being used in AI, etc) just don’t matter for the majority of people, and Reddit is being rewarded monetarily for getting rid of people like me.

I loved the one with downloading martial arts directly into your brain

Too much in the open source community is people saying this is great! Always has been. You shouldn’t crap on people being honest about the problems that have existed, because track record is important

Isn’t telegram a for-profit company?

Great because I hated matrix 1, hopefully two will be better
