Life is Tetris @tetrislife@qoto.org

@requiem the two things I run into is that I don’t have the group or critical mass of people to get ideas working that extend beyond me; and that everything significant requires capital. I can’t even experiment with some of my bigger ideas because of the lack of the two. Which brings me back to community building, even if I’m not particularly good at it.

@mmu_man @requiem

I do.
I have been using this for 17 years.
It's lightweight. I can add comments, tags.

progress on porting plan9 / 9front to MNT Reform https://git.9front.org/plan9front/plan9front/fff070f2cbb01b7c0879e9dcb13ee4e3ed2497f0/commit.html

The most obvious way to reduce our agricultural carbon emissions is exploiting fewer animals. But putting aside my vegan biases, instead of messing around with the genetic code of living things, how about using biological farming techniques? Techniques that grow the soil under paddocks, absorbing carbon, and ensuring a sustainable yield in the long term. Keeping farmed animals under less stressful conditions is likely to improve their digestion, resulting in lower carbon emissions per yield.

McCLIM frankly is peak design aesthetique and should never change

@strypey Blockchains, whether by proof of work, stake, space, whatever, substitute cost for trust.

Trustless transactions have interesting applications, but the low transaction cost trust gives you makes it entirely superior for human-to-human and human-to-organization transactions.

Moving from a high-trust society (Sweden) to a low-trust society (Hong Kong) was a real eye-opener for me in terms of how much trust buys you in terms of efficiency, even between fiat-based markets.

@stux @logan @Mastodon @Gargron @mastodonchonk Fahrenheit was the scientist. The temperature scale is Fahrenheit's monster.

@stux@mstdn.social @Mastodon@mastodon.social @Gargron@mastodon.social @mastodonchonk@mastodon.social I like kelvin because you never get negative numbers so it can be stored in a unsigned variable.

Repetition for new readers.
To "deal with it", resolve the bugs, not introduction of gratuitous new features.
Want to contribute to documentation, but extant programmers have no interest in robust quality assurance. Documentation has to be co-ordinated with software development, otherwise authors, testers will lose motivation to work with programmers that are more interested in "new features" than software quality.
Again, permissions management (one of the best conceptual features hubzilla) remains in need of quality control and accurate documentation. Despite a "long time ago", the culture remains unchanged.

Recent (failed) attempts by non-European countries for the "developed" world to pay environmental reparations _alone_ (let us ignore the political, social reparations for now), is a good example of attempts to protect eu citizens from the realities of their behaviours.

@bob @paulfree14

I'm almost crying here over the work you've done with #epicyon and #freedombone

Until those throughout Aotearoa start to _actively_ reduce proprietary software dorminance in schools, there will not be the necessary culture change. Unfortunately, the history of free(dom) software advocates has been to ignore early education.

@lightweight @arin_basu @DrCuriosity Embrace Extend Extinguish never went away, it just got smarter.

@lightweight It could, but you can think of the government as being more of a geographically branded megacorporation. As such they have far more solidarity with other large businesses than with muggins here running ActivityPub on a laptop.

#CuisSmalltalk is fast, damn fast. Same operation with @drgeo on #Pharo then Cuis:

Alternatively (as in diaspora protocol), do not allow any edits of posts (distributed ledger style)

Let's just take #Zot and rename it #ActivityPub 2.0

I hope I explained it right.

#Nomadic #identity is probably the toughest thing to get an explanation for on the internet. But it's so useful and important I wonder why other #Fediverse protocols don't have that except #Zot.
