Just trying to understand how the world works
We are raising capital to fund humanitarian water trucks for Burning Man. I’m in the arena, some ideas will work, some won’t.
Best of luck, but if Dril can’t save the vibes, this place is doomed to permanent Portlandia
ohh,.the haters are Scared. running around like cock roaches now that The Father has returned. now lets get started, shall we
If the EU knew Bluesky existed, they’d ban it https://m.independent.ie/business/technology/no-instagram-threads-app-in-the-eu-irish-dpc-says-metas-new-twitter-rival-wont-be-launched-here/a1927220337.html
No Instagram Threads app in the EU: Irish DPC says Meta's new Twitter rival won't be launched here
Meta will not launch its new Twitter rival, Threads, in Ireland or the EU for the foreseeable future.

I’m still amazed that the UFO/UAP story went from “crazies at Burning Man” to “Michio Kaku talking about it on NBC” in three years. Either it’s all bullshit and, in turn, one of the greatest psyops ever, or it’s true. Wild. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EZKQGzIddM4

> old users Apps still young; you’re not going to see the concept of an “old user” for another 2-3 years. Today was also amplified by a service outage elsewhere. I assume Twitter gets more traffic when IG is down? Someone former Twitter would know.
Old users become more activated when new users join, and that feeds in on itself to create a big feedback loop

We are weeks away from being able to scale traffic Bluesky a lot more easily. So if you could hold out just a bit longer EM, that'd be great.
This is what the LORD says: “Send the Californians back, and I will heal the land.”
NYC feels like a swamp right now. I don’t want five days of rain, I want one giant line of storms to come through and cleanse the place.

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/06/15/mercedes-benz-microsoft-to-test-chatgpt-in-vehicles.html They’re going to slap AI bots everywhere. This will go about as well as a bot on a hotline. “Humans” will become a premium service.
The fact that Google Domains isn’t being rolled into GCP shows how inept they are at catering to business users.
I’m not sure if I can watch Black Mirror anymore. At first, it was funny, and now I’m like, “I’d rather not know the future.”
If one could only post to a feed, Bluesky could not only disrupt Twitter, but also Reddit

Boarding a flight to SF, and wow, it’s so apparent walking up where this plane is going. “This is the place; these are SF people.”
AI is a bubble; it’s no different from self-driving. 80% of the time, it works fine, and the other 20%, if you don’t intervene, you’re screwed. Models have peaked at “entry-level intern,” and it’ll take decades to go beyond that.
The future of skiing is a $3500 headset. No lift queues, or expensive tickets, just you and the slopes.
