@c0nsid3rate hate the wine, but love the whiner?

Wait…

@JonBaker time for a bidet!

"What makes the fediverse appealing for it's current user base is not what makes it appealing to a wide audience. There's an uncomfortable tension here: (...) same characteristics of nerdy clunkiness is also what it prevents from mainstream growth."

Thank you, @laurenshof , for your on point analysis.

My cartoon for this week’s @newscientist.com (US/Canada version)

Why pay for chargers you already own?

Thanks to the EU’s common charger rules, you can choose whether your new device needs one, saving money and reducing waste.

It’s like ordering at your favourite restaurant.

“Want a charger with that?”

In the EU, you choose. Your wallet and the planet will thank you.

What would it look like if a black hole devoured a star from the inside? NASA's Fermi space telescope may have spotted the answer: a 7-hour blaze of gamma rays, unlike anything seen before.

When we explore, we discover amazing things.

This new Map Men episode is exceptional, even by their usual incredibly high standards. 100% worth 15 minutes of your day.

They put a ridiculous amount of effort into even the most stupid, fleeting jokes. Also, they're one of the few channels whose adverts I watch, because they put effort into those too.

The fediverse needs better developer resources. The kind ATProto has.

Fixing that gap: rich documentation, interactive examples, instant prototyping.

Built indie-style with FediDB, browser.pub and other community resources to create a better foundation for the next generation of fediverse developers.

Sometimes one spark is all it takes. Share if you care ✨

My kingdom! My kingdom for a vector world map with an equal earth projection that features all the small islands* properly and each country is a path with an ID attribute of the country name ordered alphabetically

Wait, so AI companies are struggling to raise enough funding to build datacenters for their unproven technology. And to solve this, Nvidia is just handing out cash on the condition that those companies buy their GPUs, which is being spun as Nvidia building a walled garden? That kind of sounds like someone combined the Subprime Mortgage Crisis with a Ponzi Scheme.

> Best case scenario, seems to me, is that Free and Open Source Software enters a period of decline.

Wrote that a year ago and it feels like it's panning out roughly as expected.

@ravirockks yikes! So blatant!

I hope at least it’ll trigger a stronger counter reaction.
