When you let the dog buy the private plate

I believe the computational overheads of running ATpro are much larger than a standard bulletin board, and presumably the fact social media is now regulated in many countries introduces certain compliance fixed costs. I don't see why a million+ active users doesn't overcome this though.

Jag verkar ha highscore här med 4. Jag kanske är Mest Kille på BlueSky

This was a nice post but I do not understand why it has to grow or die? Does it really take billions of dolllars to run a site? There are surviving internet forums w hundreds of users. Lets say BlueSky has two million active users. Why isnt that enough?

Wow. I wonder what they wanted in return.

Every single golf club closer than 30km from a city centre is a policy failure

www.thetimes.com/travel/inspi... How about "valuable new development unlocked" as a better characterisation?

Förbjud hemliga partibidrag! Det är inte en svår sak att förstå eller att göra.

Får en glassig bjudresa från svenskt näringsliv, börjar sen förespråka skolmodeller som svenskt näringsliv skulle tjäna pengar på. Intressant. Och intressant att det som beskrivs positivt låter lite som nationalism och repression. Nationalsången och tystnad i gemensamma utrymmen?

Today I learned that one should ask a hospital where a loved one is being treated in an *ICU* if they will be monitored and treated by on-site care providers or through remote telehealth. This fatal dystopian story is about Yale New Haven Health. lawandcrime.com/lawsuit/no-o...

I found a style guide for writing from the air force academy officer training program while cleaning out some folders. It’s decades old, encourages simple language, like not using “fatuous numbskull” when “jerk” will do

the depressing fact of the matter is that you can get really far in the world by being a dumb mean shameless asshole

Does this have any down sides at all? I principle it should also save money by enabling the organization to focus on defence against Russia instead of wars in Asia

Good Martin Wolf column where he states the obvious. Sooner or later Europe and China will be forced to learn to consume goods and services. This will be difficult politically because people hate consuming goods and services. www.ft.com/content/49e3...

Stanley Holmer is totally underrated

“Carpe per diem”. The amount allocated to an employee per day to seize said day.

I am going to drink a glass of alcohol Its what Jesus would have wanted

I remember when the rich kid from my school had a remote controlled plane. I was very envious. Little did I know that the rich kid toy would revolutionize warfare 40 years later.

Samma mönster går igen i både SVT och SR. Vänsterröster plockas bort, i synnerhet de som Moderaterna och Sverigedemokraterna retar sig på. Public service orkar inte stå upp mot de ständiga dreven och kritiken från höger. www.aftonbladet.se/ledare/a/q66...

Regarding the recent debate O would like to reiterate: Every billionaire is a policy failure

Jag är pga orsaker på Riddarbaren på Östermalm. Kom förbi och säg hej om ni är i krokarna.

I agree w most of this thread but I actually think taxing the billionaires would mean we could have more nice things back. Not mainly because of the money collected but from a weakening of a class* that is hostile to normal people *A class any sane society calls the upper class

If you don't want to be prosecuted for the murder of civilians you always have the option of like, not murdering the civilians to begin with. If your issue is the delay in prosecution, maybe don't engage in covering up those crimes for decades?

Warning! Your vehicle will be toad.

Det här var ovanligt korkat. "Efter Luleå är Piteå den kommun i länet som väntas klara sig bäst och en framgångsfaktor för att öka inflyttningen är projektet ”Move to Piteå”." www.svt.se/nyheter/loka...

Från skaparna av ”Historiens största massmord inne på Svenska För Invandrare hade inget med rasism att göra” kommer ”Hakkors i blod på en moské har inget med rasism att göra”

I clicked and this was some of the most pathetic whining I have ever seen. "I have to do crime I have a chiiiild" Jesus fucking Christ the kid can take the bus.

“Exceptional hardship” is granted (for proven habitual road crime offenders) in around 1 in 5 cases—yet the definition of exceptional is “rare and extraordinary”. In the UK, 5 people will die today in a road collision. We should prioritise safe travel, not leniency for repeat offenders.

Said this before. Twitter is obviously slowly dying but most of it is not going to BlueSky. Not everyone will be dedicated enough to only settle for a twitter 2015 copy

I think its a healthy sign that an Angry Old Geek soon will have more followers than me. Also, the lack of algo feed may mean that its harder for big accounts to build a following and easier for small ones. This is then a feature not a bug.

Lund kommun verkar rätt ointresserad. Det hade annars varit lätt för dem att till exempel låta stadsbussarna i Lund fortsätta till Bergströmshusen. Idag känns det som en osynlig ingenmanszon längs kommungränsen mot Staffanstorp. Här skall inte samarbetas.

I keep saying it but the oil industry HATES this. They know the gig is up when it becomes too high, too unpredictable, for too long. Some more illustrations of this below 🧵

Finally! Berlin is lovely in many ways but its basically a European Houston. Cars *own* that city. Its time for change. www.ft.com/content/8ac8...

Hårdare straff will fix this www.svt.se/nyhetskoll/g...

Will Malmö and Lund merge? You wonder. Well it could happen! Malmö has already almost merged with Åkarp. Granted then there is a bigger gap between Åkarp and Hjärup but from Hjärup to Lund the gap is almost bridged by something called "Bergströmshusen"

So you agree that the establishment doesn't care about the disenfranchised? You agree that the current politic is an ever-diminishing clique of fundraisers and yes-men staying in their bubble, incapable and unwilling to reach the people that need to be reached the most?

This is such a terrible strategy. Insiders and relatively well off people saying "fuck you, the alternative is worse" to the people most in need of an alternative is just so cynical and destructive and I think we have seen it is also a failing strategy

Ok, I’ll bite. What’s Mastodon

Migrants in New York, never heard of such a thing. Why not just put up a welcoming statue and have done with it?

Untranslated headlines in German are much clearer than New York Times headlines in English

I mean fair but also its obviously nonsense. I have as much interactions here as on Twitter 2016. The experience has been 100% translated. If journalists stop believing they can find all important topics on some god damn chat thats only for the good

It's the first thing, the very very first thing they did when coming into the building. Usually, this stuff gets analysed as "what this absolute primary priority of the new admin tells us about ...", but in this case, no one wants to say it out loud, I guess

I foolishly bought a beer without checking the time and its 17 minutes to Stockholm so now its a race against the clock

Actually an interesting project www.rwe.com/en/research-...

I've said it before but the idea that bluesky is broadly 'anti-AI' does not hold up at all. I wish it was 😭

More than 1.3k RTs on this AI slop image and fabricated caption. Let's have some standards here people

Bit bothered by all these angry people in my mentions. They are not attacking me but still -Price caps on energy/energy subsidies is sn extremely inefficeint way of poverty reduction -Youre so out of touch! You have no idea how poor people live! You and your ilk want poor people to suffer!
