That was the update I needed today, thank you kind Internet stranger.

I’m confused. This reads to me like a pretty clear criticism of Urbit and Curtis Yarvin. The author is perhaps a bit more explicit about that here: https://theblockchainsocialist.com/why-urbit-failed-with-adina-glickstein/

Here’s a piece I wrote to explain my apprehensive stance on AI to friends and colleagues: https://blog.erlend.sh/non-consensual-technology

Does that mean someone from another instance that’s running on Lemmy also wouldn’t be able to downvote?

(Love this feature!)

Excellent decision! The simplest way to enforce this would be to require all comic strip submissions to include a source link.

Good question; that would qualify for me, yeh!

I’m surprised these images make it so high up on Lemmy when this place is (rightly) so culturally opposed to the stuff.

Thank you for digging up the original! The AI version is flagrant plagiarism and should be deleted.

Yes, there’s steward-ownership and post-growth entrepreneurship:

I need this on a t-shirt.

As of today it’s basically an open alternative to linktree. Read our blog posts for more about the big picture plans.

I suggested the official adoption of Photon a year ago. Xylight was tentatively on board with it.

Even more important though is this change which would allow an alternative frontend to be used as a default, instead of having to be relegated to a sub-domain.

Haha exactly!

Would love to hear about it when it’s out!

That sounds really interesting! We’re building an OIDC server for indies with Weird – please feel free to come by and chat with us: https://blog.muni.town/muni-town/

I’m aware of this library for it: https://github.com/kensanata/mastodon-archive

Dunno about any easy button-click service for it though, which is why we’re building it into Weird, which is like a CMS for your digital identity.

Exactly!

It’s not about Totalizing Enforcement. What it changes is the cultural norm. Not right away but over time.

An age limit on alcohol never stopped anyone of any age to acquire alcohol, but it sets the societal bar for what’s acceptable. You don’t wanna be the parents that gave your kids alcoholic beverages at 13.

It’s always a little jarring how everyone very readily believes that the Scandinavian countries are the happiest in the world, but won’t believe that the incremental policy changes we implement here have any effect 🤷‍♂️

Appreciate the review! I’ve forwarded it to the dev :)

Haven’t seen the movie yet (guess I’ll have to now), but I imagine it’s a good pairing with this: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7193362/

Studies have identified some of the main sources of microplastics as:

• plastic-coated fertilisers
• plastic film used as mulch in agriculture

WTF?

• plastics recycling.

Uuuuh…
