I started with Lain, ergo came out a few years later

Could be a minor semantic issue. When you say NON-capitalist society, that evokes thoughts of Russia, China, Iran… places that regularly imprison/execute artists of every variety.

If you mean our current society should reduce oligarchy, then yes 100% …but your terminology is working against you.

Ergo Proxy still is rad

It’s a genuine question, and a relatively simple one at that… are there any examples of the society you describe working at scale?

Try to help me continue my learning journey.

I’m a strong supporter of worker unionization. It’s a great counterbalance to the edge cases of capitalism, where markets lose efficiency.

A non-capitalist society seems like a huge leap past reality, assuming you’re not advocating a full on fascist dictatorship. Are there examples of this working?

SMTP is for sending. IMAP is for receiving. You may be thinking of POP3, which is also for receiving and has mostly been replaced by IMAP.

Re-watching Ergo Proxy and it’s aged insanely well… communicating with autoreivs is exactly like prompting chatgpt

Give me my robot

Not to mention that GPL is generally accepted as the Free Software and MIT/BSD/Apache is the Open Source in FOSS. This only matters to a small group of people, yet the criticism is specifically about “open source“

Who decides the culture? The early adopters? Seems artificially limiting. Need to build tools that allow different cultures to exist simultaneously. Its the only thing that will scale these networks to the point they can take over centralized solutions. Unless that’s not the goal.

Bluesky now has ~45567 users (31% growth since 3 days ago) and ~2577025 total follows (61% increase since 3 days ago).

This article is recommended in Will Larson’s book, Staff Engineer: Leadership beyond the management track

The book is a great read so far. I feel validated for discovering this “Google design doc reference” on my own.

Cool, looks like an impressive list of features! I typically use whatever terminal comes out of the box these days, as long as I can set a decent font and color profile. What are your favorite advantages of foot, over gnome-terminal or others?

Fedora Sericea Fedora Sericea provides the popular Sway tiling window manager in an immutable fashion. It makes Sway accessible and appealing to both novices and advanced users who prefer not to use a mouse, touchpad, or other pointing device to interact with their environment. Featuring lightweight applications for web browsing, text editing, and media playback, the Fedora Sericea offers a complete experience with a minimalist user interface.

Fedora w/tiling window manager (sway) and rpm-ostree, sounds very promising.

I’ve been using i3 (w/gnome integration) on Silverblue, so I’m wondering how this will compare.

Looks great! What type of joinery and finish did you use?

Who here is into #retrocomputing? Please share, I want to find my people.

Here’s a few of my retrocomputing projects. Haven’t had much time for them lately. One day I’ll get around to building that 68k system…

Are BlueSky usage metrics publicly available like Nostr and Farcaster? If so, where?

Composable Moderation A customizable, composable approach to moderation that prioritizes safety and gives users and developers more control.

Have you read the blog post on their approach to moderation? Seems well thought out and reasonable.

correction: this is about the Creative Freedom Summit, a different conference than Flock

I once sold an RPi Zero from my “online garage sale” hosted on OpenBazaar, to a guy in Australia interestingly enough!

Hoping that OB3 takes off so I can revive my shop, because I’ve accumulated a lot of stuff I’m too lazy to sell on eBay/craigslist.
