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.

Louis DeJoy rescinded that motto. A mail-in ballot might get through. -

> si potrebbe avere una buona fetta della vita (relativamente alla vita diun essere umano) da organizzare senza ancora essere fisicamente troppo deperiti.
E qui parlo di deperimento fisico intenzionalmente, perché come alcuni di voi hanno già osservato, bisognerebbe capirci anche su cosa significhi essere giovani o vecchi. (Ho già accennato a questo anche prima <https://sociale.network/@oblomov/116005887367992150>, ma evidentemente il discorso merita di essere meglio sviscerato.)

@lorenzoquintavalle @sicurezza ciao, scusa il ritardo, ti ho invitato nelle stanze matrix italiane, fra poco le vedrai popolarsi di messaggi perchè all'entrata non dovresti vedere quasi nulla in quanto per motivi di privacy non è possibile vedere i messaggi precedenti.

Nel caso a), ci si accorgerebbe della propria immortalità solo molto tardi; sarebbe anche difficile non solo pianificare la propria vita, ma anche affrontarla bene man mano che si invecchia. Il caso peggiore (non a caso Titone fu poi “salvato” trasformandolo in cicala).
Negli altri due casi, è probabile che ci si accorgerebbe prima della differenza nella velocità di invecchiamento rispetto agli altri, ed a seconda del ritmo a cui si invecchia dopo la presa di coscienza, nonché dell'età limite >

@pfefferle@mastodon.social instead of an Undo(Delete), can you send an Update(Note) instead?
Perhaps that will trigger the tombstone to be... exhumed :skull:
Otherwise let's bring it up with the Mastodon team for better support 👍

@Sigmundkapje @surethingwhitey that's the plan, yeah. But, it remains true it requires cooperation of states that are unlikely to cooperate with the plan.
Some Republican states (e.g. Texas) have obeyed in advance, by sending voter data to the federal government. Trump was likely to win the very red states, regardless of interventions. Though, I guess Texas Republicans just had a wake-up call with the recent state Senate district that swung 31 points from +17 for Trump to +14 for the Democrat.

Come già detto, questo potrebbe prendere varie forme:
a) continuare ad invecchiare all'infinito (vedi Titone)
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titoneb) crescere/invecchiare fino ad una certa età e poi basta (o avvicinarsi asintoticamente ad un'età limite, ma in maniera tale da vedere le differenze solo dopo una certa età; pensate al grafico di 200*arctan(x/100)/pi come esempio)
c) un misto, crescendo all'infinito ma sempre piú lentamente (andamento logaritmico).
