They added 1 million new users yesterday alone, so it’s happening! And so are the growing pains.

Jay, their CEO, had a Twitch stream yesterday and she said they’re a 20 person team!

FTFA: “Launched federation for self-hosters and developers. Now there are over 1,000 other personal data servers (PDS) outside of Bluesky.”

One thing I am always aware of are apps that want permission to access Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi and/or Networks.

Even though Bluetooth is very short ranged it can still be used to tie you into a location within a database based on other database records that are more detailed.

Yeah, I love playing you “My Great Dog-sitting Simulator” (not a real app) but you do not need access to my BT. The OS handles sending your audio to my headphones!

Well bsky.app has added almost a million users in 1 day! They actually call these events “EMEs” (Elon Musk Events).

It’s a great site, that I highly recommend you check out.

You may have heard of Folsom Street Fair? The sex & kink positive, all-inclusive, world-famous, 2-day long, San Francisco street fair?

Ah, the ol’ “Brute Force” hack.

I got as far as Tom Cotton. Everything else in that article is just going to be a waste of time to read.

The man is without ethics or morals.

Okay. So how do we turn it off!? I’ve read nothing in my Samsung manuals about this “feature” and here no instructions for turning it off.

You like NFT, yeah?

I’ve licked the frog twice! How many does it take?

I wish more people would realize this! We’re years away from a truly reasoning computer.

Right now it’s all mimicry. Mimicry that hallucinates no less…

How would that support “First Sale Doctrine”?

Your answer was concise and succinct, for such a complicated topic. Thank you!

Put on some headphones and de-stress to a seamlessly looped track of walking in the rain. No footsteps, music, etc. Just a stereo mic moving through an environment capturing exquisite aural details.
