Sometime around the 2020 era, we lost the right to be mediocre at things we love.
No longer can you just bake bread...you must start a sourdough side hustle lol. Wanna stay fit and go jogging or running? Nah, you gotta optimize your biometrics for a marathon. What my point is that every hobby has been enshittified and gentrified into a brand opportunity.
This strange infatuation with optimization culture is killing the human spirit.
So this new year, starting tomorrow, one of my resolutions is to do something bad but fun. Maybe I write a terrible poem. I like to draw and paint, so perhaps I will draw a horse that looks like a table or sing off-key in the showers or in front of my loved ones. The algorithm driving the mainstream social media wants me to be a polished product, but my humanity lives in these messy, unoptimized, cringe-inducing joyful failures.
I will try to reclaim the right to be an amateur. Will you join me?

@pheonix I will welcome back in the ranks, since I never stopped writing unpunishable stuff even across 2020 ;-)
Gli ultimi otto messaggi ricevuti dalla Federazione

@LaVi già
tempo fa erano capitati anche casi di persone aggredite da cervi o simile, e qualche articolo diceva “su sentiero”, ma poi si scopriva che il “sentiero” era una scorciatoia non asfaltata tra due zone altamente urbanizzate, e insomma, anche lì il cervo non era proprio entrato nel centro abitato, ma non si può neanche dire che chi passava di lì per andare al lavoro stesse commettendo un'incoscienza.
decisamente diverso il caso degli orsi nei boschi in montagna dove al massimo c'è un paesino ogni tanto

I just watched this new #veritasium video about ASML's history: mind-bending and awesome!

@gabardino O sono quelli che non hanno voluto pagare la compagnia.

@S1m I always wanted to add push support to #Conversations_im. I think a federated instant messenger is a natural fit because you get the decentralization and the connection for free. And adding it to the messenger is also what Google did with gtalk.
So I was very happy that I found #UnifiedPush as a quasi standard when I finally got around to implement it.
Thank you for your for work!

@LaVi mi sembra giusto

@valhalla sì, il mio "invadere i loro spazi" era più collegato al pensiero dell'"orso cattivo che assale il povero runner nel bel mezzo del bosco" più che a questo caso specifico.
Qui, come scritto correttamente nell'articolo, sono gli animali a venire attratti nei centri abitati dalla disponibilità di cibo a zero sbatti.
