@aeva YES ACTUALLY!
I call it "going to church" with my partner and I get a very special, very unique thrill from being in places where I can angle my head and take in the vastness of the sky and feel absolutely tiny
This is one of my favorite things. The fact that I'm a cloud is surely coincidence
@electrocutie @aeva i like doing this, and at the same time i like thinking about the rotation of the earth, and how "up" is a weird term if a line defined by "up" is constantly sweeping a circular path (which would be loops considering the orbit).
and then i lose my sense of orientation for a bit; its the best

@aeva I'd love that, especially since it would mean I live in a less urbanized place than I actually do

@oblomov I find when I am downtown looking skyward while standing on the sidewalk, the effect is enhanced by the skyscrapers because it emphasizes just how much empty space roads create. I imagine the effect can be experienced anywhere that has been sufficiently destroyed by automobile culture.

@aeva the dark forest of the universe is much more terrifying than the comfortable emptiness that falsely suggests there is nothing dangerous out there
@mia forests at night time are just kinda generally scary though

@JamesWidman @electrocutie I get a similar feeling by trying to visualize how much empty space may be underneath me at any given moment while downtown. it's like ff7 midgar down there.

@aeva haven't had the opportunity to do that again for a long time.

@aeva perfect is amazing when you can get it though. i'm sure there is a way. i'll figure it out.
citronella candles, some spray... or both. that could be enough. a blanket. some wine. a lamp that glows like a candle. wait i have the citronella already. need to put it in a wind protector. that will do.

@SnoopJ @mia there was a big prairie and forest near the campus back when I was in college, and there were paths so it wasn't particularly untamed, and I went in the forest all the time during the day but one time I tried to go there in the middle of the night and like I couldn't my limbs would not move and I was frozen in terror by the inky black wall that blocked the precipice and I could feel it staring back at me with 10,000 unseen eyes. I was also really drunk but that's probably unrelated

@aeva best place for this I've found so far is the beach at night. At least at the great lakes on a calm day.
You can stand there and stare into a nearly featureless void and gradually see the stars pop into view as your eyes adjust to the darkness.
I'm betting the prairies, the (ant)arctic and the desert would all be good places for this too.

Giappone, rischio valanga per il debito
Il mercato giapponese dei titoli di stato attrae un crescente numero di investitori esteri ma questa non è una buona notizia, perché si è trasformato in un epicentro di volatilità e rischio

@eniko I'm of two minds on this. I've come across too many people trying to take credit for an idea they actually got from someone else to not appreciate knowing what the actual original source is.

requestPictureInPicture() (PiP / PinP) does not work in Home Screen Web Apps (PWA) on iOS/iPadOS. https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303885 "Multiple developers have independently reported this issue over the past four years … This significantly degrades the value proposition of Home Screen web apps compared to:
- The same experience in Safari on the same device
- PWAs on other platforms where PiP works in standalone mode".It's almost as if Apple want to hobble PWAs just enough to make them unviable, but functional enough to claim to regulators that there is a distribution channel outside the App Store and the Apple Tax.

@elettrona suvvia, nessun luogo è un paradiso in terra, come peraltro la Svizzera sa bene dopo l'ultimo esperimento di "teocrazia diretta" (🤣) avvenuto proprio a Ginevra per la regia di Calvino...
Semmai i problemi della Svizzera sono altri: per dire, che l'Europa sia una grande Svizzera, è una provocazione ricca di spunti, ma deve continuare a essere vista solo come una provocazione: la UE ha un'eterogeneità sociale e una proiezione internazionale ben diverse

Ok. Possiamo smettere di usare l’hashtag #mastoaiuto ?
Troppo legato ad un software specifico. Meglio #fediaiuto o semplicemente #aiuto ? Avete idee alternative?Poi ben vengano gli hashtag #aiutosegreto e #unoaiuto ma a mio parere limitano l’hashtag alle specifiche community
Se l’obbiettivo é quello di interagire solo con la community dell’istanza allora apposto. Ma d’altro canto usare questi hashtag é limitante.
#chiesebrutte funziona perché universale. É un hashtag che trascende le istanze
