  5. O absurdo de pampar depois do rug pull

    Por que pampar uma meme coin depois de um RUG PULL? 🤯

    - O que aconteceu: lançaram uma meme coin e rolou rug pull — a galera perdeu tudo 😬
    - A reação absurda: em vez de fugir, o pessoal começou a pampar a moeda (pump and dump) 🔁
    - Pior cenário: fazem downward pull numa DEX e ainda assim forçam o pump. Qual é a lógica? 🤔
    - Conclusão: é um absurdo — o ecossistema das...

  13. Is your Crypto project active, or is it only listed?

    This video is a solid gut check for anyone holding alts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5hotugHagY

    Quick "dead coin" signs: devs gone quiet, thin liquidity, constant unlock dumps, bot community, no product or users.

    What's your go-to Signal that a project is finished?

  15. CW: Making Mastodon more social... encouraging chats actively...

    @Gargron Why did nobody vote by the way?

    Also I want to use this opportunity to say we need more #INTERACTION itself as a focus branch of Mastodon (which is mostly text-based). This in turn will give you and us benefits...

    If I say "Mastodon doesn't directly encourage social events or activity beyond aesthetics" I think it's mostly true.

    A branch of Mastodon to help gather groups by 1 or two keen people like me (free) goes a long way from text-mainly ways to audio chats and really bonding / finding relativity more.

    Because even the best social engine (like it is now) does maybe near-0 for helping people pool together to interact REGULARLY.

    The non-talkers / too-polite / inhibited Tech people NEED HELP to express more personally and develop their social side as part of the sport of social and moving together...

    We can find a focus and help others talk aloud with each other as the main sport of socialising and finding others who want to be found at the same time as problem-solving as a bonus individually or for Mastodon...

    ANSWER = #JITSI
    #Jitsi chats are a simple enough way and SUPER-quick to join as individuals into circles to say hi and what we're looking for / what we can help with.

    So even as text it would be great to have a regular circle but even after text something like audio chat is something great MORE COMPLETE AS A SOCIAL. #WHATSAPP ETC HAVE AUDIO RECORD for example...

    A pool of people (as resources) is not really being used currently as there are a lot of us with free time and resources to #GIVE!... #SHARE ETC

    E.G Fixing a laptop audiably, live-talking about German politics, graphics design etc etc.

    People don't know how to speak / be more human is my main point. Need a place to practice! Text isn't human-enough today.

    Tech is developing hardware and software NOT developing people (which is part of solving the human psycho-social problems).

    A person holds value in themselves better in many ways than an Americanised computer, and even if it ahuman is not as much data a person holds their #principles and #history with whatever they do AND can consider others and their principles a lot better.

    TECH IS LARGELY ERASABLE / OVER-WRITABLE / CAT AND MOUSE / #RUGPULL ETC. People hold it long term better and can explain to others,,,

    I find assuming people to hunt people, job, events for themselves and hunt other humans isn't really great and could be more easier with a bit of help from the Social engine itself! - WE NEED MASTODON (living staff) TO HELP PRACTICE SOCIALISING AT SPECIFIC MINI-EVENTS / MINI-CHATS!

    I'm not saying #Mastodon takes all responsibility but ME recommending and doing all this means a different / strange things rather than trusted Mastodon or testing crew being happy to test / try it...

    For a social movement it needs to be socialising itself else just empty...
    ( 🖼️ ok some cat pictures and single replies / arguments but not really developing people, justs develops the empty-ish tech site increasingly Americanised even if it isn't all).

    It's like a social engine going to church only on Sunday's (or in this case #Caturdays') and that's it - not really progressing life, staying in cat-pic mode / non-deep discussion. It's killing us.

    For more-real socialising, we need more than just one or two text replies - actually a Jitsi chat / RTMP is A
    PERFECT TO #TALK INSTANTLY

  16. Our company just migrated from a legacy product tracking system to a shiny new one. Not a full month into the new year and the #SAAS provider is starting to charge money for #API access.

    Hilarious to be rugpulled the instant we cut over to a new solution. I used the API to automate uploading tons of documents as part of the migration, but if this had happened a month ago people would've probably still been doing it by hand as of today.

  19. For those out there using minio to provide S3 storage: enshittification is underway, you might want to explore different solutions.

    Over the past months, several features have been removed from the community distro, and now the docker images are no longer updated, leaving self hosters unprotected due to missing security updates.

    Also, the documentation has been pulled as well it seems.

    They sell out to VC and rug pull hard on the community that provides the bulk of their data and value.
