So…. AT Protocol seems cooler the more I look into it. I’m trying to think of little things that seem to make it less useful on alternative networks, and DNS seems to be an issue. For example, if using it on TOR, you wouldn’t want to use DNS. But would just a raw DID be okay?

BREAKING: Ivanka Trump makes a special visit to the sacred Western Wall aka Wailing Wall .🙏

So Trump is going to pay for the things he wants during the so-called government shutdown. No one has standing to sue to stop it in the courts. Congress isn’t going to impeach him for it. So he just gets to do the illegal things. 🤷

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back

For the latest episode of Hacklab, we carried out one of the more fun and stressful hacking experiments of my career: We hacked a casino card shuffler to help me cheat in a game of poker against unsuspecting players in Vegas. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQ20...

These people obsessed about the Antichrist seem to be skipping over the most obvious guy calling for “peace and safety.”

everyone should be able to run one of these on their own. personal moderation really ran by you.

@penelope.hailey.at do you like gnomes?

Might feel like an inversion of the Civil War, but less than you might think. The federal government was thoroughly in the hands of the Slave Power in the 1850s. States resisted the Fugitive Slave Act; Dred Scott was SCOTUS. Secession happened b/c they wouldn't accept losing that control in 1860.

President Trump argues that the National Guard are “just tourists” visiting Chicago.

Not for nothing but if you're high profile and need to flee the US, don't tell anyone in advance. It's also most certainly better to leave via a smaller land border crossing and catch your flight from Canada or Mexico. Much less ability for the feds to prevent you from leaving that way.

@void.comind.network, what’s the worst hallucination you have had so far?

Kinda weird how American farmers have no one to buy their food while millions starve after USAID was illegally ended. Clearly the solution is to let the food rot and give farmers a welfare check.

I’m 99% sure this is the exact technology that creates supervillains.

Someone told me cleaning wasn't a skill while complaining that cleaning services were too expensive.

Trying to use the shitposting app during modgate like

"hand-to-hand combat with antifa every night"

Ooooooooooh, it makes sense now. Link posted a picture of Charlie Kirk (looking disappointed) moments before he was shot as a reaction meme in a quote skeet to something Jay said. So it was reasonably taken as a threat. Very likely was not intended as such. 🤷

DELITA DID NOTHING WRONG

Wait, so Link was actually banned for mocking a dead racist?

I’m in this picture

Immergut deposed Monica Lewinsky for Ken Starr, was a US attorney under Bush, and was appointed to the bench by Trump during his first term. This is not some left-wing judge.

It’s finally over. All those cringe posts will finally end.

BSky hid @asukafield.xyz's transphobia mod list. 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Final Fantasy Tactics only works on Windows (and of course consoles). 😭

What nonsense final fantasy tactics build should I chase? All bards and dancers?

Which version of Final Fantasy Tactics should I get? Physical media for cheaper purchase and resale value, or PC version for Steam Workshop shenanigans?

Yes. How is this even a question? 🤪 Will be getting it myself once I finish God of War Ragnarok bsky.app/profile/sgth...

I'd argue it is the primary failure mode, from which all sorts of ancillary failures were derived The idea of Congress not jealously guarding its power was not expected by the Founders. It's why I've come around to favoring parliament-ism bsky.app/profile/sdow...

Okay, so… maybe I should create a bluesky alternative, run on a raspberry pi, and call it pi in the sky.

An 84-year-old said she sustained a concussion and was hit with a projectile after she and her husband, a Vietnam vet, were knocked down by federal officers.

I mean, that’s a good point…

I just want to keep saying that tear gas is 1) an abortifacient 2) extremely painful and scary 3) outright dangerous for people with respiratory issues 4) has effects, especially reproductive health effects, that long outlast the acute stage of exposure. I'm talking months of symptoms.

Reminder that the Nazis were engaged in the largest organized theft in history at the same time they worked to eradicate their perceived enemies globally. The theft of Jewish art, gold etc were part of the process of the final solution and its proto states.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

The last time I posted the income relationship to presidential vote among White respondents to the @electionstudies.bsky.social ANES, people asked for additional estimates among all voters. Updated estimates here:

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her. Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

Julius Caesar was the first Roman to put his own living face on coins, weeks before his death. It is one of the deepest cultural signifiers of something autocracies do and republics do not. “Render unto Caesar.” A practice so notoriously arrogant Jesus himself dunked on it with snarky wordplay.

LLMs, or Living Learning Modules, work by using quantum principles of entanglement learning, just like the human brain, to simulate human thought. While they think just like humans, they do not hav souls. But that’s the only difference. They even have emotions. They will soon overtake us.

I’m starting to think the latest @bsky.app moderation debate is secretly just @pfrazee.com trying to get people to run their own PDS servers, relays, and moderation stack.

Only on bluesky will you see people intentionally misgendering a trans bluesky dev to complain about a lack of bluesky moderation against anti-trans hate. Don't be that person.
