I love the #Fediverse but I'm dreaming of something truly decentralized using public keys for identifiers and something similar to the #NASA delay-tolerant network for distribution. No email addresses ever used to identify someone - that's an old system we need to move past.
The beauty of this would be to have key-signing in person so you could show on your feed "I've met this person, they're real, I know them and here's their pubkey to follow -- they aren't AI" and through the six-degrees-of-separation thing we can all follow REAL people and what they engage with. No AI Bots. If there are bots you wanna follow, sure, follow those keys too - but they aren't people and can't show up at key-signing parties and post pictures with us so that's different.
Also, any email service is a public thing that someone might find your leaked password for, etc.
I want my identity backed by a secret key that lives only on my computer -- and part of a wallet of keys that includes ones that I keep offline entirely and only use if the current key does get compromised and yoinked off of said computer.
And IDEALLY I want to have a little USB thingy that has the key and can't be read by my computer - I wanna just be able to send it text and read back the signature for it and never ever have to risk that secret key being stolen thanks to a vibe-coded update to my Linux distro or Python libraries or something sometime in the future.
We have the basic tools to do all that - it's simple off the shelf stuff we could actually do with no real new work needed - just use keypairs (or rather sets of pairs as above, not just a single all-or-nothing loss point) and identify ourselves by them. And then meet and do key-signing and know and tell the network that this person is real.
Anyone? Can we start doing that someday soon before AI slop and AI hacks of email services bring this lovely place we have down? #pubkey #p2p #identity #keysigning #fediverse #email #security #aislop #makestuff

Whoa, ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter may have sniffed out hydrogen chloride venting from cracks near a giant Martian volcano. Mars might not be geologically dead after all, and that could point to the best places to hunt for life! 🔴🌋

"In an era before titles such as #softwareengineer and computer scientist became mainstream, Hamilton, who died on 30 September, learned to program under the tutelage of a renowned #MIT meteorologist.
She continued to perfect the craft in an MIT laboratory, writing software that could detect enemy aircraft. When the institute received a #Nasa contract to develop the Apollo onboard flight software, she jumped at the opportunity."
Margaret Hamilton

🔭🛰️ What if the next space network runs on light?
Laser communication can send huge datasets through narrow infrared beams, linking satellites, lunar missions and deep-space probes at much higher data rates than traditional radio.

This celestial panoramic captures Rigil Kentaurus, the primary component of the Alpha Centauri triple star system, alongside the dark nebula Sandqvist 169. Located approximately 4.3 light-years from Earth, Rigil Kentaurus provides a brilliant contrast to the dense, cool interstellar dust of the Sandqvist nebula, which resides hundreds of light-years further in the background. Such compositions allow astronomers to study the complex spatial relationships between nearby stellar neighbors and distant star-forming regions within the Milky Way.

This celestial composition captures a rare visual alignment between Comet 67P Churyumov Gerasimenko and the Crab Nebula M1. The image highlights the distinct evolutionary stages of cosmic objects, contrasting a primitive solar system body with the supernova remnant of a massive star. While the comet displays its characteristic coma and tail generated by sublimation, the Crab Nebula reveals a complex network of expanding filaments and a central pulsar. This perspective illustrates the depth of field in astronomical photography, showcasing the interaction between local planetary science and deep space phenomena.
