"The makes all of this visible...unfolding in real time. We are watching a community take shape, with excitement, disagreement, and inevitable growing pains. Whether or not it fixes the internet is almost beside the point...in the Fediverse, community is not abstract. Community matters more than algorithms....It is intentional, contextual, and deeply shaped by where you choose to belong. And there is space, even if you have too many faces." maho.dev/2026/01/the-forkivers

"“What people often don’t grasp is that it’s taken 100 years to get the oceans that warm at depth,” he says. “Even if we stopped using fossil fuels today, it’s going to take hundreds of years for that to circulate through the ocean. We’re going to pay this cost for a very, very long time, because we’ve already put the heat in the ocean.”"

The first two versions of Google's software (to predict protein folding) were , including the one that earned its developers the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. There were no restrictions on commercial use. But the third and most recent version blocks free commercial use, and is poised to earn $100+ billion from partnerships with companies. Then three MIT students reverse-engineered AlphaFold 3 and released their OSS model, called , with no restrictions on commercial reuse. Like Red Hat, the Boltz team is making good money selling services while leaving the software free and open.

"We used to say that it does not really matter which instance you choose when joining the Fediverse. Pick one, get started, and move later if you want. I still think this advice is useful for lowering the barrier to entry. But I no longer think it tells the full story.

Choosing an instance matters more than we tend to admit."

"In the Fediverse, community is not abstract.

Community matters more than algorithms."

이런글도 읍내에서 봤는데 사실이긴 함 그래서 트럼프가 지금 각재고 있는것 같긴하고; 유럽은 좀 내부정리가 되긴해야하는데 역사적인 맥락을 고려해보면 쉽지 않을것 같긴함 x.com/stingraykite... "유럽 친구들이 그린란드를 위해서는 이렇게 할 수 있으면서 우크라이나 전선은 저 상태로 둔다는게 동유럽 친구들에게 어떤 의미일지. 나는 멜로니 총리가 정확히 보고있다고 생각함. 유럽은 양면전선을 감당할 역량이 있는가? 징병으로도 국론이 갈리는데, 과연 서유럽 민중들의 진짜 마음은 어떨까."

이번에 마두로 납치할때 경호원들 숫자가 많았는데도 순식간에 제압당한 이유가 새로운 무기 때문이라는 증언? 이야기가 읍내에서 돌았는데 사실인가봄 아직은 오래 사용가능한 무기는 아니지만 일단 지향성이고 음파를 맞기만 해도 사람이 두통이 심하게 오고 코피가 나고 그래서 저항을 하기 힘들었던것 같음 x.com/stocknewsdog...

Terminad is a really interesting approach to rendering markdown in the CLI. It deliberately doesn't render links, so you can always see both the link text and the URL.

In a browser you have hover to see URLs, but not necessarily in a terminal.

Left-wing Iranian students celebrate victory of Islamic Revolution with picture of Ayatollah Khomeini. (1979)

In early 1979, Iran was swept up in a wave of revolutionary fervor that united vastly different factions against Shah’s monarchy — liberals, Islamists and leftists all calling for change. This photograph captures a fleeting moment of optimism as left-wing students celebrate the revolution’s success, proudly holding an image of Khomeini, then viewed by many as a symbol of liberation.

Hi folks: this is woefully just a quick start, but I created a Mastodon Pack of the top most active posters I've seen on the so far. Will up this later to day to top 30 later. Very up to add anyone - and very up to transfer ownerhsip of this starter pack to someone from that server.

Also I added @CaseyCasey Newton - but could not add @pj nor @kevinKevin Roose as their forkiverse mastodon accounts are set to not allow it. In comment I'll note ow to fix.

In 1959, a cement mixer with a full load of cement, wrecked near Winganon, Oklahoma 🇺🇸

By the time a tow truck came to haul it away, all of cement had hardened inside of mixer. Tow truck was not able to remove all wreckage at same time because of weight, and decided to haul only cab/frame and would come back for detached mixer later, which never happened.

Today, 67 years later, it still sits where it fell. Locals have painted it and added "rocket thrusters" to make it look like a space capsule.
