There is this classic:

Yeah, the OIL joke is 20 years old.

We have so much more you can make fun of.

Just don’t vote for Biden! When he loses, he’ll see the error of his ways in supporting a genocide. Then next electio- oh… oh…

The past few months to a year or so we’ve seen a total restructure of the internet. Reddit, Twitter, Facebook and YouTube have been actively scaring away their user bases.

It’s resulting in a split and divided internet. Like the days of old. Fediverse ActivityPub integration is the only thing that can undo that and revive these all-in-one style communications platforms.

I’m curious to see if it will be better or worse.

Debian is more stable.

“Right next to the Microsoft building?”

“Oh that’s not Microsoft, that’s-… big hard”

Yeah, see the original was actually an old tucker segment accusing liberals of making spiders less sexy.

I can’t officially put a Creative Commons on most of my memes. But my memes are fine to share. If I feel particularly proud I put a watermark in it. Not because I want people to think “oh that meme is stolen.” But I want people to know it was my doing.

What’s happening July 1st?

New planet

4 28 day months named after a season.

Magic is real.

Move there just to start growing blue fruit on a family farm.

If it’s nationalized, yes.

“avada kedavra” bang

I understand the issue of “it’s a Fediverse only if the network is diversified.” And “it’s difficult for new users to understand.” But if we also go down the path of making the system like a standard centralized network we defeat the purpose of the Fediverse.

Our issue isn’t a “we need to copycat our predecessors” it’s a “we need to explain how we work in a simple enough way no one could possibly misunderstand.”

I’ve tried various methods of explaining it, and I think the issue is half bad explanations and half a lack of interest.

We need to also start pressing our strengths. The Fediverse, as it’s nature of an AGPLv3 project, is ad free. We also don’t have the weight of megacorps deciding what is allowed to be shared because of said ad revenue.

Avoid talking about the technology. Boast our numbers, we’re 2 million strong on Lemmy and 14 million Fediverse wide. Avoid confusion, offer help, and press our advantages.

“Hey Luigi! Bowl of Spaghetti?!”

“Just spaghetti on the rocks.”

This post but replace google search with the general internet.

Nearly every place that feels like the old internet is not as popular.

I used to think that was a bad thing, I’m starting to think maybe I’ve just been pushing aside the reality that when the internet was good, it wasn’t as popular.

They don’t have to actually crash, they just need to start to crash.

Then competitor’s values will drop, they’ll buy them up, and then get bailed out.

Except these are more than just content companies. They are empires with tons of shell companies and child companies under their roof.

And it giving any company that much control of a market is a death sentence. If they begin to crash, the entire economy around that will crash. And it will ripple.

“Ωmega Mart - You have no idea what’s in-store for you!”

This feels like a Samsung Advertisement.
