Our hydraulic system is basically red pre-piss and sometimes we need to pee to regulate it.

Meanwhile we have monthly installments for monthly installments.

Y’all really cannot schedule a 3 meal a day plan? What do you mean throwing up is your alarm to go eat?

I think English will change in a way that being “wrong” will be part of the language itself.

AI can learn a language, but can’t learn the unpredictability of communities shaped by memes. AI for example doesn’t know memes, because requires processes unable to be emulated via pure logic.

AI started to become good enough to be marketable.

A good chunk of current democracies are actually open market oligarchies.

My theory (very bad) is that the fediverse is the prelude of an internet so decentralized it will stop being useful to corporations.

The “upper web” will be corporate, ads, marketing and paid services. The “lower web” will be a series of semi connected networks that will loosely operate as a whole.

Maybe in 10~20 years, a physical new internet will be born, completely independent from the current one and untouched by companies.

I second this.

I was banned from a community for infringing a rule that didn’t even exist in both the community ruleset and as part of the ToS.

Trying to talk there is like permanently checking that you don’t enter into wrongspeak territory like in 1984.

Interesting. I always believed the SMS is 144 characters. Incredible we had a social where ideas where sent 4~8 lines at a time (depending on the font size)

The 144 characters limit. IIRC Twitter had the same limit because at the beginning you could post on your profile using SMS.

I remember when phones where an arm and a leg in price purely because of T9. Having a predictive dictionary in your pocket needed a lot of bread.

Technology divergence is inevitable after corporations saw that convergence into an “all in one device” made their work much simpler.

No surprise feature phones, MP3 players and dedicated-use devices are making a comeback. My wish is for full pocket computers to return.

The Fediverse principle is not to be the next big thing. Just wants to be a functional series of communities.

That’s it. Decentralization is not only important, but critical to avoid a lot of shortfalls now common in bigger corporate socials.

Same thing happened to me for a remote call center job. They ended up discovering they mistyped the invitation link by not copy pasting the last character. They told me I was unprofessional via email until then. When they rescheduled, I simply told them their unprofessional approach pushed me to search another opportunity.
