Nah. This happens every few years, has been since 2014. Buy a GPU before they rise up and use all of our electricity again. An new SBF will crash it sometime.
Over the past 48 hours, we've received a lot of discourse regarding the upcoming "Project 92" platform created by Facebook and the anti-meta fedi pact....
Man, Zuckerberg must really be scraping rock bottom if he's coming crawling to us. I was hoping he'd keep wasting billions on his metaverse project. Don't federate with those guys. They're addicted to data and just need their fix.

I was intrigued by the interesting name, which left me so rapt that I started checking the sources because it sounded so outlandish that surely, it couldn't be real. That culmated with me buying a shockingly expensive paperback book and reading the shit out of it. I kept having to check the copyright date because it seemed like a repeat of 2022. It gives me a lot of hope for humanity because America came out (heh) stronger because of it.
The wildest part is that it happened so recently ago, ALL the landmarks are still there in DC. There's zero placards that acknowledge any of it, but you can still visit each of these places, some of which are right across from the White House. I recommend everyone read it, it shows the depth of evil, but also the hope of people, and how a peaceful social movement goes from the most hated, to one that became part of the cultural mainstream in a handful of decades. The wildest part is that it took this long, mostly being post WW2.
That book has even been referenced in the NYT in headline articles, which was awesome to see.
The list of unusual deaths had me in tatters when I got to the guy who got in a fight and was the first and only known person to die of an atomic wedgie (where your underwear gets pulled up so far it goes over your forehead).
I had tears rolling down my face and could barely breathe. RIP to a hero.
once again speaking for myself here, except where these sentiments have already been expressed by other admins. this is not a moderator document or anything, and it will not be stickied....
Should be near the bottom. Looks like the original dev, ccrama, is still afk. But his code is all open source. So some new guy is going through some of the disorganized code and resurrecting it!
Hi yall after being on disability income for years and job searching for months I finally got to step two of the job search process: a job interview....
Congrats! Scope our the website for the company, sometimes they will ask if you've looked them up/made an effort to do research on them. Scoping out your interviewer on social media too, like linked in. Can make conversations flow more naturally if you know them a bit.
Finally, dress a bit nicer than normal, fresh clothes, iron them the night before so that you are ready to go. Probably goes without saying, but being showered, clean, and smelling great goes a long way in a first impression too. Finally, a firm handshake when meeting them. Good luck ^^
If the Gameboy advance sp doesn't count, then a gamecube! Swiftly followed by a hand me down cold PC (back in the days when connecting to the internet was novel and had a keyboard button! You weren't always connected back then.)
Thank you! I have it set as my phone wallpaper. And my laptop background too, come to think of it. We modeled it after a rainy night in a park, looking out over the city. It was really gorgeous that night :)
Ugh, I'm sorry to hear that. Luckily my second in command was on the same page with me when spez decided to fuck us both over. We closed the sub as neither of us will be able to moderate effectively anymore. Our community had a uniform response too: close the sub.
I wish it had more content. We still need more power users to post more. I'm interested in how this gets further developed. It could turn into something cool.
I like it, but it's also somewhat frustrating as my accounts start to proliferate. Let's say, theoretically speaking, I create a throwaway account for NSFW subs on a different instance that is mostly porn. But then someone designs a totally hot sub on pawbs.social that doesn't federate with the porn server. Now I have to decide whether to create a new pawbs.social throwaway, or mix together sfw and nsfw content on main.
Especially since pawbs.social is invite only, it makes it difficult to create another throwaway.
Is Crypto Finally Dead?
