Good morning Bluesky ☀️ My grandad told me he saw the Titanic - from the outset he warned all the people that the ship would sink, but nobody listened to him. He knew he was right and didn't give up. He warned them again & again, until eventually they kicked him out of the cinema.

Yup. We can *all* start preparing to move to Mastodon or whatnot 🤷♂️😭
Okay, so Verge is very intentionally rage baiting folks by specifically taking a clip out that sounds like the CEO wants to add nazis. Someone else said it was really about sports. I'm reading through the touch edited transcript verge offers below their post to see which.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."
Slight difference: in *sports*, usually one team doesn’t want to kill the other side after purging their rights to free speech & a fair trial.
Second to last question about "breaking" the branding of bluesky as liberal. Schneider brings up sports again, but does want more than just the regular crowd. The way he talks about expansion is...Interesting.
So what I see here, is a response that is so lengthy to a ridiculously long question, that i can see some people genuinely getting confused and thinking he's talking sports. Verge ragebaited by shortening this, but it still comes down to "Bluesky doesn't NOT want to attract the nazis"
Space travel, like surgery, are things where "lack of control" and "failure of planning" are not things you should let slide or consider non-issues.
Als we die fameuze 'adaptatie' een beetje succesvol willen uitrollen, dan kunnen we er misschien al eens mee stoppen om elke rationele aanpassing van gedrag onder de moralistische noemer 'schaamte' binnen te trekken.
Almost *everything* you see in this format, whether infinite power cubes or solar powered houses for the homeless that fold out of suitcases or French "bread libraries" for the poor is liberal catnip bullshit by content farms. Stop being idiots. Thank you.
Europa kreunt onder de hitte en de bosbranden maar we gaan een top organiseren over migratie omdat er via Ceuta - checks notes - *NUL* Marokkanen de Schengenzone zijn binnengeraakt. Omdat de mensenmassa tot de verbeelding spreekt. Over de doden is er geen ophef.
Like many Europeans, I felt deep unease, not only at the deaths in Ceuta, but at Europe’s dehumanised response. By embracing this dystopian narrative, they turned desperate people into invaders, abandoned European solidarity and helped create the image Europe’s worst enemies want READ below

That burned me a few times and made it extremely easy to cancel Office when they switched me to a pricier plan without my permission. I use LibreOffice, which is free and auto saves like it costs money

The most terrifying enshittification I've discovered has been learning that Microsoft Word documents no longer auto-save if you are not saving them to one of their own proprietary cloud services. I'm slapping control-S like it's 1999.
It feels like a parody, all the positive outcomes. Like c'mon, a sane world would have adopted this shit decades ago.
Since you ask, yes, climate change really is making wildfires worse (say 45 of 50 studies) interactive.carbonbr... Ofc, fossil-fuel emissions are not the only reason (also land management, arson, etc etc) But these newspapers are palpably DESPERATE to find ANY OTHER cause 🫠
🧵Right-leaning newspapers are trying to blame Europe's raging wildfires on everything EXCEPT fossil fuels 1. The Wall Street Journal Frontpage story: "Greece fights wildfires as Europe crisis spreads" WSJ editorial: "How green policies fuel fires in Europe"
Everyone should have a hype man like this in their life 🙌🏼 Might change my name to Franklin and play this on loop 😂
Marokko moet hard worden gestraft voor dit hooligangedrag. Koop geen Marokkaanse waar en help het Marokkaanse verzet tegen Mo VI en Polisario op alle mogelijke manieren.

We did tell them; they refused to listen. Politicians ALWAYS refuse to listen, because they view themselves as the nation's parents even though as a group they're far less mature than a sizable fraction of the adult population. All modern republics function under a kakistocracy.
Australia’s eSafety commissioner buried a report (released Friday afternoon) that shows the under 16 social media ban didn’t tangibly reduce teen social media use, and also resulted in parents tuning out of kids usage. We traded our privacy for no reason. theconversation.com/more-than-80...

Deze droogte is wel interessant om de verschillende landbouwvormen tov te zien. Wij hebben zeer veel organische stof in de grond, de bloemen, pompoenen en maïs staan mooi. Onze buurman teert op kunstmest en de maïs staat opgekruld van de droogte
My mom and grandma told me about this. It happened in Los Angeles. The last streetcar ran in 1963.
Is everyone aware of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy? In the mid-20th century, auto and oil interests bought up electric streetcar systems across the US and systematically replaced them with bus routes and paved roads, funneling commuters toward private cars.
Yup. You did. And cancer research for children was first to go.

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
