Yes!

They’ve been. Demand your privacy back

Press forward

At that point I’d just spray paint them. Much safer, easy to buy in cash, and I assume it costs a lot to send someone to clean it up

hey idk if you heard but Organic forked, I’m on CoMaps now Have a good day!

I tried to watch it around 2012 and couldn’t stand it

Yes, always.

If it’s at that point:

1. Set up a password manager on your desktop
2. Change your account passwords to something too long to remember, and keep them in the password manager

I have a Pixel phone with Graphene for offline maps, Wi-Fi, emergency calls, etc.

“We want a civil war”

(One person dies)

“No no no, not a war where any of my guys die!”

yeah golden ears are very rare. 320 kbps of any codec is fine for me.

Hm. I want a plan for when this reaches the US.

Think they’ll block P2P stuff?

I get it.

edit:

Anti-natalists believe that suffering will always be there and no one should be born EVER.

Oh well idk. I think if I had been born in the Netherlands I might be more inclined to have kids, seems nice over there.

Even the FOSS apps don’t all get along.

Conversations is great for XMPP, and it can act as a UnifiedPush pusher, but AFAICT it doesn’t support other protocols and it doesn’t act as a UnifiedPush subscriber.

So running 2 chat protocols, one being the well-support app Conversations on the well-supported protocol XMPP, means 2 push setups and 2 apps. Bleh.

I would like to see an architecture where the expensive app side of things is separated from the protocol. But that’s all speculative, I haven’t put work hours into it. Basically, if I have an idea for P2P chat, why do I need to re-invent emojis and channels and shit like that? I only want to iterate on transport. And if I have a better idea for channels, why would I have to re-invent the transport like XMPP and Matrix?

(The reason is that cutting those two apart is hard - But I will continue to wonder.)

And it would be easier with good bridges, but of course the big platforms like Twitter, Facebook, etc., refuse to bridge in or out with anything.

You can scrape public Facebook feeds, using paid services, but AFAICT you need a friend on the inside to publish your stuff into Facebook.

I guess that’s one reason I shouldn’t complain about Bluesky - They support Bridgy.

rules such as “cooperate with cops”

Neat!

But it’s 2024 🤔

Arcologies.

Dense housing with good soundproofing, atop commercial space, in a walkable neighborhood.

Wouldn’t need rent control if there was more houses.

Maybe it’s uncommon to have a climate where you need both.

My furnace has a humidistat so in the winter we can adjust how much water gets sent into the hot air stream. But it’s always maxed out because it’s really dry every winter here.

In the summer, the AC takes care of dehumidifying. Running a dedicated dehumidifier would be a waste of electricity, at that point just turn on the AC and any extra cold is a buffer against running the AC later on.
