BOOM! You can now trust that they are who they say they are.
It will obviously only work on a limited, local level - but if this catches on, we can have "ambassadors" that fill in this role for me in different locations - all people I've exchanged a crisp high five with.

So how do you get verified? You gotta have a video clip on your profile of me, personally, giving you a crisp high-five!
So how do you get that video? We arrange a time to meet up in real life, and I record the high five then add it to your profile and give you "verified" status.

On CrispHighFive, after you make your account, you'll be locked out of doing anything until you're verified - You can browse the listings on the site anonymously, but you can't meaningfully interact with the site until you're verified. (create a listing, respond to one, etc.)

I feel like this has potential as a meme format

That's a really cool idea! I've had something similar rattling around in my head for a number of years now, but it was arranged along a timberline so users could see how events related to each other chronologically

So you ever use React for your projects, or so you primarily go to svelte? I've been trying to get into learning webdev frameworks and React is everywhere so i figured it was the only one worth diving into.

What were they thinking? That looks so uncomfortable

What tech stack did you use to make this with? This is really impressive!

I never understood the hydraulic press videos' appeal.
Give me someone silently doing wood work though and I'm set.

Wow! That's really impressive! Yeah it's a similar idea to that, i think her solution is more open ended than mine and is definitely more flashy than what i had in mind. Its humbling to see great work like that.

Looks good! Better than the doodles I used to draw in the margins at school

How do I downvote this?

The big problem is figuring out how to source the history factoids that will end up making up the (initially completely hidden) network of all nodes that the user can potentially explore.
Either it will have to be built up node by node from a dedicated user base or scraped from somewhere like wiki.

The overall experience is: you slowly discover the history of something (the network of connected events you end up creating) by exploring the different historic connections that exist organically, at your own speed, in your own order, in bite sized chunks, starting from somewhere familiar to you.

Some can add TikTok-like short videos to it as a form of response as well: clips they've taken of live tours, memes, show-and-tell shorts from people who still have a relevant artifact, etc.

Each node is also a discussion board all its own, where the community can add context and information as they see fit. (Highlight discrepencies in opinions, offer question-links to other relevant nodes, etc...)

But... this isn't like reading a history book. Each question and node is extremely focused and bite-sized - and the community can propose new questions to attach to nodes, and suggest nodes for those questions to connect to.
comment in response to

Each question is actually a link to another node on the timeline. As you go from node to node, or explore all the questions of a single node, your history timeline starts to fill out.
Eventually you end up with a graphically compelling network of nodes along a timeline that shows how things connect

From that node, you are given options - different questions that expand your understanding of that node.
Maybe the node is... the election of Barack Obama for example.
Some of your options from there are "What is the Tea party?" "What is the birther movement?" Etc.
...

This guy was a huge disappointment to me. He had really interesting TikToks and the anti oligarchy vibes were great. He's like the 2020's awaken with JP to me.

Oh for sure. Every time there's a new holiday event I do this thing where I challenge the bots starting from the weakest and every time I win I progress to the next bot.
The 1350 was relatively easy to beat consistently, whats got me venting is the difficulty spike between the 1300 amd the 1800.

Thanks for the suggestion
I already play on chess.com
Spent the morning getting beaten up by the 1800 valentines bot, just wanted to vent.

Those that are upset at an open source and cheaper alternative to the gated access that preceded it (wherein they controlled the access keys to said gate, btw) are demonstrating behavior more closely aligned with an oppressor losing grip of the reigns than an evangelist seeing broader adoption.

game ended with him swinging out with indestructible vigilance double strike infect unblockable slivers that drew cards on connection.
He also had a card I'd never heard of before that gave "sliver cycling" - so basically, each sliver could tutor from his hand for any other sliver.
it was nuts!

So I couldn't do anything, and the rest of the table couldn't play board wipes agains the sliver guy as he painfully and awkwardly went through the motions of doing the mechanics his deck is supposed to do while saying "sorry! sorry!" over and over again.

At the same time, guy across from me was playing gatherer.wizards.com/pages/Card/D... for the first time and I explained to him (and got to see his eyes go wide in real time) how his commander actually works - at which point he was like "oh... I get why people hate when I whip out this deck"

Honestly this would be amazing. Especially as a former SC2 player, there are just so many interactions and specific knowledge necessary to just be able to play games on even footing with other current players that the devs couldn't have forseen. Adding to that: the meta is constantly evolving too!
