There’s a lot of places with a ton of solar though, and you can use that for hydrogen. It could be a potential export from the Middle East. They also have the infra already.

My favorite "a few bad apples" is not a problem, which leaves out the second half: "ruin the bunch". Especially when applied to police - the fact that the "boys in blue" turn a blind eye to the bad apples is wh

It's almost as if he's a world-class grifter who continually lies and whose entire net worth is predicated on keeping up an illusion of his own competence. The dude doesn't even have a physics degree, it's pure bullshit

I had one kid, I'm purposefully shrinking the human population, I walk the walk.

I've got no pity for the retirees who caused a lot of the environmental crisis in the first place.

Use the full quote. Nec audiendi qui solent dicere, Vox populi, vox Dei, quum tumultuositas vulgi semper insaniae proxima sit. And those people should not be listened to who keep saying the voice of the people is the voice of God, since the

I really don't see this as a problem, humans are using resources at an unsustainable rate, we need fewer people, not more.

yes, but *which* verification? original flavor? scammer's friend? or simp badge?

not edgy enough for you?

Good thing these are the people who helped fire Twitter's security team. Sure that's going to work out great.

Privacy shield very much matters where your servers are. EU cracking down hard on extra territorial transfers in the past year with more to come. Also, lots of companies assert GDPR compliance via magical thinking. They most often are wholl

Still putting my hope into Blue Sky/AT. I want to believe.

This is an actual historical event in regards to the web. This story will live on.

I agree, the MtGox collapse is the death of Bitcoin.

Bloomberg is currently the only news source I feel makes me smarter after I read an article.

I think it’s a fair point when it comes to accessibility as discussed in another comment.

To be fair so does any website made after 2000.

I can move my email host and my mail keeps coming to me. Mastodon you need to set up some weird redirects from one server to another. It’s the difference between forwarding your Hotmail to your new gmail vs just swapping your provider and k

To also clarify I do think Twitter is a dead man walking, so something will take over. Hopefully AT will deliver.

Ok, in that case I’ll clarify: I don’t think the vast majority of Twitter users will benefit from Mastodon.
353.
by nr2x 4y ago
If I own a domain I can host my email anywhere. I own the name, and every possible address. Mastodon does not have nearly the same level of portability and ownership. This is why I think AT is more promising.

by nr2x 4y ago
Yes, my problems with data portability are indeed evidence I can’t handle choices in my information diet.

Ok, so the DAU is likely worse.

The fact that one has to pick from many different places to set up an account is a massive barrier to entry. Let alone the complexity of moving an account from one host to another is also woefully complex, so if you choose wrong, you’re in

Yeah, still not giving up WFH.

Why not both?

Wow, good point.

True, but you can’t “view source” and teach yourself the basics now. We lost something important along the way to world domination.
