"So the Tech Bros, in their infinite mediocrity, decided to bypass the human element entirely. They built a machine that scrapes our work—our pain, our joy, our very souls—without consent, grinds it into a mathematical slurry, and extrudes it as a flavorless, inoffensive paste that can be sold by the bucket."
The writing in this post is just absolutely delicious.

@Draconicrose this is a great way to poetically describe the current situation

@Draconicrose It sounds like dystopian fiction but it's true today’s real life.
...whatever "real" still means...

@Draconicrose Thank you for sharing the blog (and karolherbst for boosting this to my attention). Never read Robert before, but his story is incredibly evocative. The scenes paint themselves in your mind, delivering the emotion inside of them to you quite raw.
Thanks again.

@sabrinkmann thanks! @UlrikeHahn shared with me a link by Bluesky folks that talked about the potentials of the ATmosphere for sentiment analysis for brands, etc.
I get it, but the network is still so niche and with so few daily active users that 100 million dollars invested in it seem A LOT. They have stagnant growth.
For the fediverse, yes I have ideas about sustainability (ie. public institutions treating it as a public utility and funding its server and development costs)

@andre123 direi biotecnologia. Si, molto interessante, anche se ci speculeranno sopra parecchio. Bisogna prepararsi alle narrative surreali che ci costruiranno intorno.

@matz eh in questi giorni ho lavorato da casa (per fortuna posso), ma domani non so, vediamo.

@oblomov ti ci vuole un po' di tempo calmo. Puoi stare a casa?

@_elena Thank you for your post! I think this is something we (Fediverse users) need to improve.
Realistically, I see two scenarios in which they could generate a return on investment: enshittification or using Bluesky to promote the crypto agenda.
I think there's a very small chance they'll incorporate crypto for useful e-commerce or smaller transactions, like donations or Patreon.However, communication about these concerns is lacking. Many institutions only see this platform, which has a lot of money for development and advocacy, as having a better "solution" than the Fediverse.
We also just talked about that now. I also see many challenges in finding good solutions for financial sustainability for development, community care, and advocacy. Do you have any ideas about this?
Something like a global "prediction market" involving a lot of cryptocurrency? In other words, gambling.

@ciccillo evidentemente quei 2 repository non sono disponibili per la versione di ubuntu che stai utilizzando.

@matz almeno mercoledí. Ti dico solo che mia sorella (pneumologa) che non mi voleva nemmeno auscultare (perché con mia figlia sono un po' allarmista, e perché deve partire per il Giappone e vuole evitare di ammalarsi) oggi mi ha auscultato e mi ha tirato giú qualcosa come tre o quattro medicinali diversi.
