which one is it, youtube

Absurd rabbit hole we went down while writing Galactic Puzzle Hunt this year: a 189,819-letter word widely claimed to be the systematic name of the protein titin, and thus the longest English word, is totally wrong. @cjquines.com went super in depth so I don't have to: blog.cjquines.com/post/titin

my biggest concern with bluesky's federation models are the relays as of right now i cant see any concievable way for a relay to get only the events required for a single account to have a view of its follower feed (and replies) without cooperation on the part of every PDS on the network

i wonder if diagrams like these might help draw the distinction between ActivityPub (and how Mastodon uses it) and AT Protocol (and how it’s used by Bluesky and atproto apps)? with AP, instance = application + hosting. data gets sent between instances. with AT, data flows *from* hosting *to* apps

does Goodbye To A World have the mitsuda lick or is it just me youtu.be/W2TE0DjdNqI?...

“our lead shares our philosophy that technology should serve the user, not the reverse this is why they focus on blockchains, a technology basically always used at the expense of its users”

BY THE WAY, THIS IS IMPORTANT. If you want everyone showing up on your feeds, you gotta go into Settings > Basic > Languages and clear the Content Languages field. Essential.

This dog only wants one thing and it's fucking disgusting (A Tweetbot/Ivory-style client for Bluesky that actually saves your goddamn timeline position)

I'm still gonna stand one of the most annoying things is how people will just accept any lie just because it fits their hateful narrative and that's how fake news also gets shared

maybe i should use bsky more but - more people on twitter - fedi feels comfier

if FLCL is "fooly cooly" then GLSL is "gooly sooly"

turns out that if you bring back a 6 year old version of Hearthstone I might just play it again and then promptly stop playing once this "season" finishes

handle acquired

bluesky gives the same feeling as reinstalling Windows and trying to make things as close as possible to your last installation, but something is always ever so slightly off
