  • It happened and is still happening, but given the state of the world, weaponized misinformation etc etc, is it happening fast enough?

    So this half-day event will be exclusively focused on how to grow the Open Social Web to bring its benefits to more people.

    If you have opinions how to do that, or are working on it, or would like to help, join us, online! Together, we are smarter than any one of us, so let's stick our heads together.

  • On March 2, we are going to try something different. Something in addition to the regular twice/year FediForum un-conference (so don't worry).

    We will run an un-**workshop**, on a topic that many in the community have told us is very pressing for them:

    How do we grow the Open Social Web?

    When Elon bought Twitter now over three years ago, and every time X has been rocked by scandal since, many people expected a big exodus to decentralized social media platforms based on open protocols.

  • @shoofle maybe for a rather shallow definition of "imagination"

  • your soul is your moral core, the standards by which you hold and the relationship you have with them, the relationships and history you have with people, the lasting effects of memory, your traumas and reactions

  • anyway my cosmology holds that souls are not a "real, physical object", but do/should be thought to exist as our term to handwave away "it seems like people act as moral, empathetic actors even when it's against their 'rational' best interest" like. there's clearly something there even if we don't know how to describe it, right? i call it a "soul"

  • this is all to say, i don't think you have to believe in All That Woo to believe in souls (patterns and qualities in humans that are not physically obvious or measurable but nevertheless exist and can be observed through social and moral interaction) and also to believe that chatbots do not have them and like. idk.

    i think that chatbots have as much claim to "imagination" as humans do. but that doesn't mean they are good at stuff!

    First sock done. Started during the Rockets match on Wednesday, finished during the Victoire match. Both losses. Maybe when I do the second sock, we'll have wins.#knitting #sockKnitting #hockey #PWHL #AHL

    I've hit the first snag with my lace  cardigan project.My swatch came out way bigger than the gauge the pattern suggests.I would dearly love to knit this pattern in sock yarn because it's easy to obtain in great variety of colors and it might provide just the right degree of warmth.I'm already using a 3.25 mm needle (which said 3mm on the box), I don't think I can get a finer needle with a cable long enough to knit a cardigan on.I don't think I'm a particularly loose knitter. But I've had this problem a bunch of times - just not being able to get the right gauge and giving up on the pattern as a result.I might swatch again in a different yarn. I don't have a big enough quantity of lace-weight yarn for a swatch.The swatch in the photo is supposed to be 4x4 inches (10x10 cm) for the section I pinned, but I had to stretch it to 6x5 to get it to be flat.Even at 5x5 inches, the (damp) swatch didn't lie completely flat in the horizontal direction.But regardless of that, the problem remains: I'm not even close to the recommended gauge.What am I doing wrong? Is this a "continental vs. English knitting" problem?#knitting #LaikaCardigan

    It's getting drapey, almost long enough to try it on, if I don't poke my eye out with the needle 😅 #knitting

    I'm sorry to report I'm still on my shimmer bullshit train that won't show up in scans, but I just paint it for my own enjoyment
