102 new Ebola cases and 45 deaths reported by DRC over past 24 hours. For context: Many Ebola outbreaks in the past have remained small. These numbers mean the DRC has reported more cases overnight than were reported IN TOTAL during each of about two dozen smaller Ebola outbreaks. 🧪

Here is Bill Gates in 1995 attempting (and failing) to sell David Letterman and his audience on “personal computers” and “the internet” (aka, the big new thing) Everyone has basically just forgotten how impractical & useless all this technology we love seemed back then youtu.be/fs-YpQj88ew?...

Check out this news segment from 1982 about buying a “personal computer” — the way they talked about computers back then is eerily similar to how people have been talking about AI today https://youtu.be/ycVyGb5ID90?is=Z42RYdtVG88kNSTW

I find it mildly funny how Restore want a so-called "de-islamification" of the UK when Christianity is also, technically, an import.

Playing with @mu.social and it's very cool. (You can play with it, too, just by logging in with your Bluesky account.) (Bonus: It lets you edit your posts.)

So me and @foxybingo.bsky.social are now on a random side quest to exchange 2000 CAR francs to GBP because a server in this pub got tipped a 2000 note???

It's working again! Totally our bad. When you migrated your PDS, your server emitted a deactivation event, which is the normal last step of a migration, but we marked it as the end of the account instead of a migration without checking. Your profile got hidden as unclaimed because of it 🤦‍♂️

i said nothing in this guy's post was true. then he said i was AI so i replied with a video of my local-first conf talk. then he said that was a body double and that toni and jay are *also* both portrayed by body doubles so i told him to join us back in reality and that's when he blocked me

I got blocked for trying to point out the flaw in the logic that Toni Schneider tried to build a tech bro space here and he's mad that different kind of people joined instead…

Meanwhile, over at W...

I admire so much how @toni.bsky.team is out there in the comments, learning and speaking honestly, and without the media training BS, doing us all a service. This is leadership done right, and it fills me with confidence about the future of the #atmosphere 🌀 Bualadh bos 👏

i love bluesky because you can be arguing with someone named like “Big Titty Sleestak Girlfriend” and then you look up their domain name and it turns out they have 12 patents from intel

why isn't there a weekly atproto podcast called CAR Talk

I still think W is a stupid name for a social media platform, same as X.

Correction per their privacy policy: if it doesn't immediately validate then the identity information is sent to their servers and stored for 7-14 days (I think it's 7). This is all hidden in their privacy policies

the train was cancelled due to a nondescript fault so I guess I’ll go die.

If you spend all day telling your robots “this fucking sucks, shut the fuck up and do better” I am going to have trouble believing you are a kind person

STRONG message from Celtic FC fans last night amid recent protests in the city “It is not the creed or nationality of a man that defines him. It is the man himself. “Celtic FC - anti-racist since 1888.” ☘️ Good to see 👏 would love to see this replicated across the country.

I got an email basically asking if I'd sell-out my blog for a guest post and... no. why would I? it's my personal blog for my opinions. not to mention the complexities of my blog not being a traditional CMS.
