#sixdegrees — Public Fediverse posts

Had my first early #Christmas get-together on Saturday evening. The closer to Christmas, the busier people are, and the worse traffic gets. So we like to be early. 🤪

'Twas a lovely evening. 😊
I learned something new!

I'm translating it as "noodle relative/s". 😄 It's about relations like in #SixDegrees but with some relatives in the [thin] connecting threads. #Chinese #Fujian #Minnan #Hokkien #family

Do you folks have a similar thing in your #language? 😃

"Streetcorner Symphony" is the fifth and final single from American singer-songwriter #RobThomas's 2005 debut solo album, ... Something to Be. It was released on October 16, 2006. The song features #JohnMayer on #leadGuitar and #backingVocals (though Mayer is not credited as an official artist). This song has been featured on advertisements for ABC's Thursday-night lineup, including #UglyBetty, #GreysAnatomy, and #SixDegrees. Thomas.

This is a concept I've always been fascinated by - the small world theory. Six degrees of separation, or fewer, between any two people you can think of. Seems highly improbable, but as Steve Strogatz puts it - "The math begs the question, not of "how is it possible that the world is that small" but, "how could it be otherwsie?"

I always love the international flavor of Marina Sofia's #6Degrees posts. This month's list takes us to Japan, Britain, Ancient Greece/Troy, Romania and Czarist Russia.

#SixDegrees of Separation: September ’25 https://findingtimetowrite.wordpress.com/2025/09/06/sixdegrees-of-separation-september-25/

@ian Damn right. Though I hope they don't start having votes on it :)

We went through decades of this with #IRC, when #Eris forked off the main universe, to create #EFNet, then the major forks of #Undernet, #Dalnet and #IRCNet - I suppose the big difference here is that different servers can allow different functionality within the same galaxy.

We just need to bring back #SixDegrees and the only change we need to make on it, is to make sure that the only post editor is #TECO
