In the Netherlands this is common knowledge, there’s even a nursery rhyme about it:

Where is this utopia?

Look at tailscale.

As long as you’re comfortable and the client pays … Win!

So the net of obligation, ownership and mutually assured destruction continues to tighten?

At some point this is going to explode … right?

Wow.

That’s some list.

Do you know all those songs, or is there a (substantial) gap between expectations and reality?

The article is light on detail. No actual list of who’s in the song.

Here’s the full list of 119 references:

What you described as personal habits seem appropriate for participation in polite society while being examples to teach in a world beset by climate change.

AFAIK Google owns the vast majority of advertising online and is the one making all the money.

We’ll, that’s interesting:

During Newton’s lifetime, two calendars were in use in Europe: the Julian (“Old Style” calendar in Protestant and Orthodox regions, including Britain; and the Gregorian (“New Style”) calendar in Roman Catholic Europe. At Newton’s birth, Gregorian dates were ten days ahead of Julian dates; thus, his birth is recorded as taking place on 25 December 1642 Old Style, but it can be converted to a New Style (modern) date of 4 January 1643. By the time of his death, the difference between the calendars had increased to eleven days. Moreover the civil or legal year in England began on 25 March, therefore the Newton’s death on 20 March was still dated as 1726 O.S. there.

I joined Reddit because it was an open and moderated collection of communities … then after the blackout due to the API changes, moderators were sent packing and any sense of community that had been created was destroyed.

I joined both Mastodon and Lemmy and I’m glad I did.

The communities in both are nascent, but slowly growing, and that seems like a place I’d like to be.

After Twitter became Xitter, I also joined Bluesky but that feels much more like people ranting and venting, less about making communities.

Be the change you want to see and review them yourself.

Given the impermanence of any storage medium today, I’m thinking a puff of smoke would convey the sentiment with the right level of user expectation.
