I’m so happy, cos today I found this thread

You’ve seen boomer humor. Get ready for milly mirth

Thanks ancestors, very cool 👍

Wait until you hear about their head fans. They’ll blow your mind.

They’re self-hosting Tangled on their server. The BlueSky part only relates to the protocol used for communication between it and other nodes. Definitely a confusing title though.

we have no evidence for or against, and the outcome doesn’t really change how we interact with the world

I’ve heard it described as “flying spaghetti monster for the religious” because, much like FSM, it’s a useful allegory to frame the point, but not very interesting beyond that.

Generally no, but I’ve found one exception: the feeling of overcoming a difficult problem at 4am will give you a sound and satisfying sleep like no other in existence.

Then you wake up and forget how you solved it. Time to begin again!

Awesome, love the design - something new for the homelab!

I can’t believe you’re just giving all of this away for free smh

Translation as another form of sane-washing. What a time to be alive.

I guess you meant “as an American [in the same field]”, whereas I took you to mean just as any American which is why I made the comparison.

i.e. going by averages outside of the field, you’re about as comfortable here as an American would be, looking only at salary.

This is true, but you asked if it’s comfortable for them, which is more a factor of average salary than the wage gap of a specific field. They are pretty much spot on average for northern areas.

The average salary in most US states is only a little more than this, and this is for Northern England where you can expect to earn 50-100% less than London depending on field

Too late, I switched to Floorp.

Because of privacy stuff? No. Because of repeated drama? Yes.

I don’t have time for this stuff. I don’t have time to track every minute twist of the knife that Google’s funding drives Mozilla to embark on.

I’m bored of using software and watching it go through “death by a thousand minor dramas”

So now I use a web browser that has a name so stupid I don’t even recommend it to other people. Brilliant.

Don’t look up? Got it. I think.

Wait.

It wasn’t about video length, it was about the Twitter leadership at that time being categorically incapable of monetizing any of their products.

Combine that with the orders-of-magnitude higher cost of running Vine compared to the bird, and it was always either going to be sold off or shut down.

It’s easy to forget that this was back in the time when these companies thought they were changing the planet for the better and drinking their own Kool aid by the gallon.

Which is also exactly how Signal works too; I migrated both two days ago. Process was virtually identical.

I much prefer Signal, but can’t judge WhatsApp to harshly on this tbh.

What in the actual fuck

Mark Zuckerberg needs to tread carefully or he might have to spend another afternoon answering the nonsensical questions of a bunch of geriatric luddites.
