I live in South Florida, which has a climate not too different from Singapore. We normally have to scrub down north facing walls and windowsills every years anyway, since the mildew growth is real. it doesn’t really cause any harm though.

He could try hooking up with Snoop Dogg. That would probably change my opinion somewhat (not that I’d expect Snoop to be into Nazis)

Duh. The bears live in bear land (arctic as in arctus as in bear). Penguins thus literally live in no bear land (ant-arctic).

No paywall

Wicked awesome

Or its children in this case.

So it’s a… Duck Hunt ?

(sorry, I’ll see myself out)

I’m pretty sure it’s choice as in “choose your weapon,” and not “muh freedoms”. Either way tho, material from a magazine literally called Car and Driver seems a bit low effort for this community :)

Give yourself some credit! Your human-level intelligence is only using about 20W. The other 80 is for the meat robot it has to pilot to get stuff done.

I think the main one is that Nostr is supposed to be really simple, and derive some security/privacy from that simplicity. Whereas ATProto and ActivityPub store and forward content so that each rely has a copy, on Nostr nodes the messages are all ephemeral. So it has something of a following with crypto bros and privacy enthusiasts. With nostr IDs are also based on public/private keys unlike ATProto/ActivityPub that use a username@instancename scheme, so signing and identifying content that belongs to a user is easier and more guaranteed to be correct, and your username isn’t tied to any specific server “instance”

I kinda agree Twitter was born of a more innocent age, and he was just a tech kid with a good enough pitch to get Silicon Valley VC. The problem is that he did little to rein in powers that were purposely using the platform for social manipulation. Then – when he already knew better – he went and started Bluesky, which he specifically said was going to counteract all of Twitter’s deficiencies, but capitalism got the better of him, so to make the platform attractive to VCs, advertisers, whatever, his team started to ditch what made Bluesky unique in favor of business tools to help it make money. Business is gonna business, it’s not 100% his fault, but I can’t imagine what will change a 3rd time around.
