In the thread it looks like in the US you can’t copyright the shapes, but in the UK, you can for 25 years. Also the .ttf file that contains the code to make the font render correctly at low DPI is copyrightable in the US.

Yeah, mostly oak. Maybe some maple from neighbor trees. And maybe a few other species. But mostly oak.

Why do they vom the water?

I would rather have unlimited with extra steps than unlimited with extra money

I’m doing an experiment. This year I raked a bunch of leaves next to a tree trunk last fall. They’re still there, this spring.

Haha that’s funny, when I first had to use slack and discord, I thought oh this is IRC, just with extra crap

Kind of like how Marcus Persson was almost a person?

Sounds like he’s more loyal to Tesla than to the consumers it hurt

I’m sad that bots in space had to spin down, but there are still bots on Mastodon. One server quitting didn’t take everything down.

The part where if a mastodon post gets popular, it has to serve that to everyone makes sense because it’s kind of like a website. Maybe there could be a CDN like Cloudflare that a mastodon server could use to cache responses?

The part about Bluesky that doesn’t sound good to me is “to send a message to one user is to send it to all”. Wouldn’t this be crazy with even 100 servers for 10000 users, vs 2 servers with 5000 each? Not sure how the math works but it doesn’t look good if they have to duplicate so much traffic.

Hey I really appreciate you and up voted your post.

However as I’ve come to understand it, fouls in basketball are very much used strategically by every team to stop the clock when they’re behind. So unless the rules are changed, I would agree with the maga that some fouls can be done a few times. Because that’s basketball, and not the future of our country.

I can’t speak to how traffic costs and mastodon works, but this article explains how having multiple blue skies federating with each other scales quadratically. https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/ it is very thorough.

The “ability” to decentralize has costs that scale quadratically. So in every practical sense, it cannot be decentralized. At best it could have a few servers that participate.
