  1. @thomasfuchs Followed the developing discussion and found it very entertaining, thanks for that!

    Still, this is no rocket science - Hungaro-Austrians (with a real Emperor at that time!) landing on Mars in 1889 sound so much more attractive than Elon #Muskolini still longing to get there in 2025. Extra points go to the careful consideration of Spain's Galicia as a better takeoff location for orbit insertion (that one IS rocket science).

    Sci-Fi, regurgitated in LLM slop, though....

    Then again, the real-world space flight countdown almost every living human knows today was invented for a movie to add drama to the takeoff scene - in Fritz Lang's 1929 movie "Frau im Mond". People love stories.

  2. @thomasfuchs @tinfoilhat The #USA's dysfunctional, centralized approach to testing is detailed in #ScottGottlieb's #UncontrolledSpread and contrasted with the #EU approach that worked better in the pandemic.

    It's more than just testing regulation, it has to do with billing and insurance, too.

    It's worth noting that this regulatory structure is what also kept the USA from widespread use of thalidomide for morning sickness in the 1950's.

  3. @thomasfuchs It seems no one told him that many #postmenopausal #women have a lot of built-up rage against the #patriarchy, a lifetime of organizational skills, and zero f's left to give about how anyone views us. Gosh...not a population I'd want to fire up...

    Given the influx of new users and the frequency with which that remark is made may I add some # ?

    #mastodonServer
    #DontSpreadHate
    #AntiRacist
    #AntiFascist
    #WhiteSupremacy
    #WhiteSupremacyCulture

    So well done on hitting all those issues with one pithy summary! Obviously I can delete if annoying.

    The people who think that are not part of the #Napster mindset.

    The #NapsterGeneration will inherit the messes those people leave behind.

    The issue list is getting better every hour. But seriously, I hardly use #g00gle these days.

  7. @thomasfuchs My reaction to all the reply guys that come here to tell you about all the various apps that support #quoteboosting, or to explain why mastodon does not support it natively.

  8. @thomasfuchs not particularly certain. I reckon, their feel undervalued and fear the others, like those with different pigmentation than them.
    I wish, in case of verbal attack, those threatened could just smile and say: I feel sad for you, you need not fear me and turn away. #hatred #naziism

  9. @thomasfuchs is there no path to resurrection? Because now that I've seen it I kind of want one too... (I have two other Helvetica shirts already... #LongStory)

  10. @thomasfuchs @Migueldeicaza thanks for the reminder!

  13. @thomasfuchs @hp but what if I insert one of those pesky Toshiba FlashAir WiFi SD cards with a Lua-based web server? A Mavica, but with WiFi?! 🤯
