@lupyuen I love all these excellent scientific uses for smart phones.
For generations now, we've paid over-the-top insane prices for medical testing hardware.
Suddenly people look at the commodity device in their hand and think "wow this is actually good enough" and make #medicine more accessible.

Men say they want a “partner in crime” and then get all weird about it when you want to rob the Bellagio

I have seen a few people on twitter refer to Mastodon as siloed, because we are all on different instances. The thing is that we link between the instances and follow across them, in the web way.
The real silos are the big sites like twitter and Facebook that exist to link you back to themselves and demand special markup from your site for their specific preview.

noooo Putin is actually good, he's carrying on the great legacy of the Soviet Union! he said he idolized Stalin (who did nothing wrong!) and mourned the loss of the USSR, that proves he's really a communist at heart! besides, all that stuff about the Ukrainian Genocide of 1932 is just Western revisionist propaganda, I read it in a book by Alexander Dugin so it must be true!

Call me crazy, but I think #Mastodon can do and be different things for different people, not just the thing you like for everyone.

RT @brunomarchand
La question n’est pas de savoir si vous êtes pour ou contre le tramway, vous avez le droit à votre opinion et je n’ai jamais dit le contraire. La vraie question est: qu’est-ce qu’on fait pour changer les choses et réduire nos GES? Le tramway est partie prenante de cette solution.

How do you make a small fortune in social media?

@greg musk called Trudeau a nazi so that’s why a lot of people in this country could like mastodon
