No mail for me today, which suggests that the snow did stay the courier from their appointed rounds. Of course, that slogan is on the main post office in Manhattan, not here, so maybe it doesn't apply.

@SteveBellovin It's the original "don't be evil". Just a slogan.

@mattblaze @SteveBellovin And one added to the Farley Post Office Bldg by one of the architects, who evidently had a thing for Herodotus, not because it was ever a US Post Office motto.

@20002ist @mattblaze Yup—there's even a Wikipedia page about that, complete with the Greek text from Herodotus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Postal_Service_creed.

I was literally in the process of sharing this fine example of the wiki editors bringing ALL the receipts:

@SteveBellovin @20002ist And one that applies (or not) equally well to the current main occupant, Amtrak.

@SteveBellovin I’m currently having fun playing “did the carrier not carry or did I not sufficiently un-bury my mailbox?”
With a bonus of “to un-bury the mailbox any more I’d have to clear the end of my neighbor’s driveway. And maybe move their car”

@mattblaze @SteveBellovin Loath though I am to give credence to the superstitious idea of jinxes, as the holder of a r/t trip ticket between WAS and NYP in the very near future I will be casting no aspersions on Amtrak’s schedule fidelity at this time.

A questo negli anni si sommerebbe l'effetto sul “medio” periodo (centinaia di anni) delle trasformazioni della società, e viceversa sempre piú in evidenza i suoi punti fermi: ci sono bellissimi thread qui sul Fediverso con titoli ed articoli di giornali di uno o anche due secoli fa che mostrano come, con tutto quello che è cambiato, ci sono cose che sembrano immutabili, e spesso anche risalendo ancora piú indietro ai grandi classici romani e greci.

Penso che sulla questione mantenimento il filone vampiresco offra buoni spunti, infatti non a caso sono sempre stati una sorta di rappresentazione horror della nobiltà.
(Anche un piccolo margine di accumulo portato avanti per lungo tempo genera rendite considerevoli.)

@pfefferle@mastodon.social okay, so good and bad news:
Mastodon has no current capability to undelete a status (it assumed perma deletion and ignores future activities to protect from replay attacks) @claire@social.sitedethib.com noted that the Mastodon team would be interested in updating this behaviour as there is desire to undo moderation actions She has signalled intent that Update(Note) is preferred We need to open an issue on the Mastodon issue tracker

Ma il “dopo” è il vero problema. Anche supponendo di aver risolto il problema del mantenimento (trovare come campare fuori dalla macina del lavoro salariale, per capirci), è lí che intervengono tutte le questioni psicoemotive, a partire dall'effimerità (relativa alla tua vita) degli affetti che per altri potrebbero essere “eterni” (“finché morte non vi separi”).

@oblomov ma hai provato a chiedere all'INPS o alla Fornero?

@aeva nope I visited the Linux mines years ago, it was very informative and my mailbox still hasn't recovered.
