In Japan if you work full time for a larger employer, you pay into “shakai hoken” (societal insurance) this pays you like a third of your salary if you get injured and have to refrain from work for awhile. (This is at least partially paid for by your company because you can only legally be fired in Japan if the company proves beyond a reasonable doubt you were either belligerent or the company couldn’t survive without you)

They don’t pay out unless you call crime stoppers. If they called 911 they don’t pay out.

Same thing happened with Shinzo Abe’s killer.

I would be very suspect of gofundmes that have appeared already

Lots of scams are going to pop up around this I assume.

Rev up those gofundmes for his bail and lawyers.

I love it when people participate in the Overton window right-wing ratchet and think they’re just being pragmatic.

Guix user pains. The packages download at that speed.

It’s a tossup whether downloading Librewolf or building it will take longer

Commenting on the joke’s explanation explaining that it makes it funnier makes it even funnier

Illuminati trying to keep America away from delicious beef fat boiled meats

That’s a really fun rule of thumb

This is much more likely as LLMs typically only respond that they can’t formulate a response when there’s an error in the prompt pre-handling systems.

This isn’t entirely accurate. Main issue is that this is all very new and moving very fast, so while it’s not fair to call atprotocol completely open it’s not fair to call it centralized either.

Right now you can run a relay independently and you can scrape bluesky’s PDS set with it (guy did that in July and it cost about 150 bucks a month, probably more expensive now. https://whtwnd.com/bnewbold.net/3kwzl7tye6u2y) there’s just not much incentive to do so. This recent policing of accounts might change the calculus on that thought process, but for now it’s not really that you “can’t” it just nobody really wants to. (Additionally there’s only like one client that lets you set multiple relays and/or appviews, so the front-ends haven’t caught up with this idea either.)

Theres about 760 or so independent PDSs right now: https://blue.mackuba.eu/directory/pdses and the list is growing.

You can host an independent blog using your own PDS and not even using bluesky’s Relay network at all: https://github.com/haileyok/blug

Or you can still have your data independent on your PDS but still allow the relay to scrape your blog update mentions: https://whtwnd.com/

tl;Dr:

They are VC-Funded, they will inevitably screw over everyone!

I understand where this notion might come from, though, ATproto has already matured enough that it could be used without BlueSky PBC existing. It could die tomorrow, and with little effort the ~650 non-bsky PDSs and a relay (which would have to handle much less data at that point) could be ran by volunteers and interested people.

That’s ironic considering the magic word is basically shouting “balls”

BYD are a battery manufacturer that happened to break into the Car Market. One of the few EV manufacturers of trust with interesting battery news.

That’s fine, most of the content was written by corporate robots before anyway.

Pages that don’t work well with darkreader aren’t many, but when they do fail they fail somewhat entertainingly:

I think a lot of It was written with the implied “and if they don’t somebody will just shoot them”
