Interesting. That exact same logo was used by the app that changed its name to Impressia. So, maybe it started as one thing, but later evolved to what it is now. A confusing journey really.

Isn't that just a pixelfed app? I think Vernissage changed its name recently. Nowadays it's like Impressia or something like that.

What about the Marxist-Leninist, communist, socialist, anti-capitalist crowd? I don't know if they hang around on other platforms, but they certainly are present here on Lemmy.

Also, what about sexual and gender minorities? I get the feeling that there are a lot of queer people on Mastodon. Maybe that could be another selection criteria.

Like this:

Are you queer? -> Mastodon

Are you a Marxist? -> Lemmy

Also, some people will intentionally add numbers at the end of the alias to make it look like all the good names were already taken. Sort of like a joke or a reference to all the bigger social media platforms.

I’ve seen something similar happen when a site doesn’t load all the way. Refreshing fixes that unless something has gone horribly wrong.

First, you need to find a place where soup restaurants have some special privileges compared to normal businesses. Then, just start a soup restaurant there and serve cereal and milk instead.

If you can’t find such a place, then maybe you can ask your local politicians to pass a bill like that. Would be nice if soup restaurants had to pay only half the amount of taxes compared to everyone else. Would be good for the owners, and fun for everyone else to see where the resulting legal battles go. Suddenly, you would find lots of companies selling just about anything and everything as soup and claiming they don’t have to pay the usual taxes.

That’s true. If something doesn’t directly make money, it can still exist because of taxes or another arrangement like that.

So, the key is to run your business for loss. Wait, that’s called a charity, not a business. How is this thing supposed to work?

In the early days of laser development, it was seen as a solution seeking a problem. A few decades later, it actually turned out to be really handy, but it would have been tough to sell this idea to anyone before that. Imagine how hard it is to find funding for research that solves a problem that doesn’t exist.

Sounds to me that Meta defines privacy in a very particular way. You’re still going to give all of your data to Meta, but anything outside this transaction is in the realm of privacy where you can have rights and settings.

I recall watching a defcon speech given by someone who used to make malware. He opened the speech by apologizing and saying that he knows that he will burn in hell.

So, do you think that quantum computing has a much longer way to go?
