It has improved here though, thank Jeebus.

I fully agree. When I feel like using a Twitter like platform (which is exceedingly rare), I use Mastodon

I never liked Twitter to begin with so I’m not one to defend him. My preferred one is Mastodon, but generally I don’t like the format to begin with. At any rate, I’ll still take pre-musk Twitter over Xitter any day.

It will almost certainly become Twitter as it was created by the Twitter founder. The only difference being that it will become the Twitter from before Musk took over. Which is a massive difference.

Oh well, I guess send them some bombs and ammo then.

Yeah another clickbait headline. It’s getting recharged all the time, it’s just very lucky to be in a use case where it goes down hills with large loads all the time

Thanks for letting me know about this. Just installed it. Now if they supported multiple mastodon accounts, I’d really be cooking.

Funny they killed the free tier almost the same day as Microsoft made the outlook announcement. I dumped both of them for Thunderbird. Not as pretty but does the job for the limited use case I have:

Me too.

This is a key part of fascism, government and industry being one and the same entity.

Next pump and dump: the American economy.

Inferior range, potential for interference, power consumption, meshing, and security. Name one area where it’s better.

And I still expect one or more of these companies to break the standard to create their own walled garden.

For 6 weeks? It wouldn’t be worth the time needed to be spent on transferring power.

Zwave and zigbee have never needed a cloud.

I live in a country with 10 million people and it works here. But yes there are probably some that don’t have the frequencies.

I would argue you get what you pay for in terms of interoperability and reliability, but I can imagine people willing to trade some of that for a lower price.

Still on zwave which works great. Don’t see the point of this standard which runs over an inferior type of networking and is brought to us by the companies that created the interoperability problem in the first place.

Jeez at least take your blue neighbors with you.

The reason Russia couldn’t handle Ukraine was only because of huge amounts of weapons coming from NATO, more than half from the USA, starting from long before the war started with huge numbers of MANPADS and ATGM’s . If NATO’s resolve weakens, countries will fall one by one to Russia, as its military and production capabilities are still many times larger than any country in Europe.

I don’t feel that that’s true if you remove the .ml’s.
