  • I hate the state of our world as it is right now. It’s been itching inside my head for quite some time alreadu. It probably is somewhat political, because it probably has something to do with capitalism, but I can’t understand how a population that has never been so productive still has to work their ass off in order to simply eat and lay in a bed safely. The more I think about it, the less sense it makes and the more I hate how natural it is for seemingly everyone around me.

    I’m not one of these people, despite also not being wealthy at all, I have a job, I don’t get paid top dollar but I have a safe house, food on the table and I can do a little bit more with my money, and yes, that’s it, EVERYTHING seems to revolve around money.






  • Money belts are coming back, but not the old style. We’re wearing it across the chest, like a bag. They’re even making money belts with more of an adjustable belt so that you can use however you want/feel better. Basically, becomes a bag.

    I really wish it would be more mainstream. I always wore shorts with more pockets because fuck I didn’t like holding shit in my hand. Recently, shorts with pockets haven’t really been a thing, so I gave the money belt a chance and I really like its utility. Nothing inside my short pockets anymore.








  • People on Twitter are already trying it because Twitter has been shit.

    Someone in my circle created their account and already deleted it. Their explanation was a FAQ screenshot for Threads saying that it doesn’t matter who you follow or who follows you, the algorithm will show or hide things from you based on what they think you will enjoy and there’s no way around it and you also can’t sort by new.

    I mean, are companies really paying attention to user needs? Lol



  • I saw “Blackberry” yesterday and it was a really good experience putting you in the context of those times.

    There is one scene where they type a message and wait for it to show up on another device. After a few seconds, it is there and every engineer in the room celebrates.

    Then, management/sales guy comes in and they tell about what they’ve just done. He goes yeah, nice, but we do it already, it’s called SMS.

    The engineers then say that he is not getting the point. It was a message sent through the network using data, 0 dollars and all and salesman’s eye get brighter.

    So yes, I think the sensation was alike.


  • I’m not really sure about that. I’m not saying it as an expert or anything, but that’s a discussion I saw around here the other day.

    Basically, once you federate and copy the content to your instance, it is in your server and you are responsible for it.

    I’ll agree with a few things, tho:

    It barely happens today, on centralized platforms. They’re hardly obliged to remove content because some judge says so (it does happen, tho, at least in my country)

    I’d imagine it would be a bit of a grey area legally, right now. We would need legislation regarding the fediverse. Imagine someone posts child porn in an instance yours is federated to. Your instance copies the content. You notice and defederated the whole instance, but don’t remove the content. The dude is banned by his home instance and his post is removed. But his copy still exists in yours, since you defederated before his ban and content removal.

    Just saying that selfhosting brings a lot of things that need to come to your attention.
