A “Not Twitter Foundation” that runs an installation of an Open Source implementation of a scalable micro blogging platform is very appealing to me.

How/why could this not be a big Mastodon instance itself? Because it inherently communicates with replica servers? I think there are easily achievable improvements to be made to Mastodon/social networks via ActivityPub, but don't see the author's argument as compelling for any reason. A "market-based" solution could just as easily be "pay $5/yr for your own auto-maintained, single-tenant mastodon server"

Cool that it's open source hardware but this keyboard looks like a nightmare to type on. Like one of those mac chiclet keyboards

  • Mitch Mcconnell is not allowed to breathe public air
  • he also must eat the silverware and the packaging alongside every meal
  • PBS runs a daily broadcast of the entire, lifetime compendium of ways Mitch Mcconnell has hurt poor and marginalized people
  • every time he speaks to a group of more than 3 people, a tortoise must rest on his shoulder and should be encouraged to nibble his ears

What an absolutely ridiculous premise. This is like how corporations paid for campaigns to blame ecological destruction on consumers for not properly recycling in order to completely shift the conversation away from their deliberate and massive exploitation of resources.

We can have ****ing online video we just need to replace cars with trains and fossil fuels with wind and solar... aghhghghhgg

Not sure if this kind of community is wanted, but let's find out! Do you have a personal blog and want to share it with a small audience? Post it in /c/blogs . My intention is to genuinely pick up some new blogs to read and get a few eyeballs on my own. I am NOT interested monetizing or making this into a repo for influencers
