The world appear in the aggregator but when I searched specifically for one in particular, I wasn’t found. Just now it works so I don’t know what changed. Thanks for pointing that out, I wouldn’t have tried again.

True, but the format is unique. The post format breaks up the flow of chatter into easily discernible units of conversation.
IRC, Discord and others have the continuous stream of thought with no beginning or end. On the other extreme, Instagram and TikTok require an image or video to post at all.
So I would say that FB groups have a distinct utility / identity separate from just other users being there.
I’m not knowledgeable either but that all makes sense.
Does that third also take into account any differences in manufacturing them? In other words, the entire lifecycle.
I remember learning to play pitch-and-putt (simplified golf) and when I finally got the swing right, there was a “thunk” sound twice or three times as my ball bounced from tree trunk to tree trunk. It was like some kind of nature-based pinball. I couldn’t believe it. When the disbelief passed later that day I couldn’t stop laughing.
Some very informative and leading articles pop up from that site. I learned a lot about indigenous issues (inflicted by settlers) there. Was really surprised given the associations I have with the brand.
I don’t understand how the eye movement camera fits in to the experiment. I was wondering if any stories, even audiobooks and TV series have the same effect but I’m no clearer from reading the article.
It is. I’d love to see it without the text too.

Best skin I’ve seen on any social site. Nice job.

It was quiet, but people would sometimes discuss various way for preventing screens etc from being too much a part of their daily lives.
The best use of AI I can think of is a virtual teacher, that teaches critical thinking and empathy.
I’ve been seriously thinking of building an LGBT bar. Does anyone know where I can purchase gay bricks?
Name-calling isn’t necessary at all, if that’s what happening. That said, would you behave this way in a restaurant?
I organise a small group gathering at a local pub sometimes with people who aren’t close friends. If it’s just one person not buying in a decent sized group, then it doesn’t cause a problem for the venue as far as I know. When we’re huddled in a corner it’s hard to tell who has what drink.
But you simply wouldn’t get away with that if it wasn’t for the others buying drinks and we do so to “pay the rent” so to speak. So when that happens there is a vibe of “I’m fine with you guys covering me here”. Saying “I don’t spend money in bars” isn’t that different to saying “I let others spend their money at bars”.
Now if this was a group of good friends, or someone I knew was struggling financially, I’d be fine with it.
“spammy/toxic instances” - Meta are a toxic company. They literally have blood on their hands.
“too liberal with defederation” - we’re talking about one body specifically; Threads. Nothing else.
As to whether it should be done at an admin or individual level, I have no idea. But they’re an unethical company and people less privileged than you and I have died while they profit from it. That alone is enough reason for anyone with empathy IMO.
So if an instance federated with loads of other instances but not Threads, I’m not a social network anymore? That makes no sense to me.
Isn’t he also the SO creator? Anyway, I’m sure he understands the technology, yes. And maybe I misinterpreted him. But it sounded like he’s saying that if we don’t federate with Threads, then there’s no point in being on the fediverse, because we’re effectively isolationists”. That’s simply untrue.
He has some strange takes there, as if federating is mandatory. Servers do block instances and defederate. it’s not misuse of activitypub to do so.
I don’t know what’s the right choice. But some arguments are a bit off to me.
If they’re scraping the web, and they’re generating AI content on the web, how do they avoiding training their AI on it’s own nonsense somewhere?
