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 😉

Very thankful my community has public libraries, churches, community bike shops, makerspaces, etc because I know they’re declining in some places, churches especially (too bad they’re religious and they can’t just switch to community organizations) also civic clubs like Rotary and lions club.

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

There’s a lot of artists selling stuff on Mastodon but I don’t think you can have a job as a mastodon influencer

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

What happened to project wonderful

Accidentally a word

Nosferatu

An eeper is someone who makes people eepy. Makes perfect grammatical sense.

The fact that someone could be an eeper and themselves be sleeping is just a bonus.
