We live in a time where I’m more comfortable visiting China than the United States. I’m dangerously close to considering Rusia safer than the US.

Trump voters electing a convicted felon as president and being surprised that he’s becoming a dictator has to be the winner of the 2025 Darwinism Awards

And if anyone is somehow still confused, the correct answer is “No. Intolerance is never allowed into my home. The only allowed intolerance is for the intolerant”

Managed to source an original steering wheel for it. Issue being that I’ll need to modify the attaching mechanism as they are notorious for snapping.

It’s heeeeereeeee! All import done now need to register it which is going to be a whole nother circus. But at least it’s now in my possession and not bothering my parents.

I’m sorry… traversing? 😶

Space Telescope Science Institute@stsci.edu

Hubble has uncovered a magnetar—a neutron star with a very strong magnetic field—traversing our galaxy. Mysteriously, the runaway magnetar was not formed from a supernova explosion as initially thought: bit.ly/3FKcNEr 🔭 🧪

Started the import process for my “brand new” car! No MOT required, no tax required, no ULEZ required, I think even congestion charge is waved. Runs on anything, can fix it with a hammer and pantyhose, and has the stopping distance of a freight train. Airbags? Crumple zones? What’s that?

TIL that Mouse and Keyboard wireless receivers are recommended to be within 1 meter of the device they connect to with direct line of sight for optimal experience. I hate that a lot…

At work with some interesting challenges: -- Survivorship bias A fallacy of focusing on survivors while ignoring the unseen casualties, leading to false preventative measures. -- Perfect Solution Fallacy Rejecting solutions because they're imperfect, common in development teams.

30 mill users and somehow all I'm seeing is still boring uninteresting dribble... BlueSky's invite code approach seems to have kept the quality of the content fairly high. Let's see how it progresses as it's very early days for them but not drawn to it at all. Even the memes are basic AF...

Yeah... It's an inferior version of blue sky at this point with a very big reach and Instagram integration. The one good thing about it is that it supports GIFs... And as stupid as it sounds that's going to tilt the scale for a lot of people.

Okay I'm back from Threads her's my report: Shockingly it's exactly what you'd expect would happen if all the Instagram users suddenly started talking to eachother. There's just shitpostig at 1000000 mph. There's no... Real connection there yet and no segregation. /1

The interpersonal vibe is completely lost, making it feel like 2017 twitter, as in you're shouting into a complete void. The users with a lot of instagram followers of course have much greater reach than everyone else. It's a bit of chaos. Monitoring for now...

Initially I was thinking "this isn't too bad, just more of the same centralised social media BS" but then I saw they want to integrate with ActivityPub... That might be a problem. I'm very interested to see how the Bluesky Team react to this news.

It would be much better if they integrated with atProt too. But I see how they're just, strategically, trying to use their size to just take over everything.
