睡不著來看一些歷史資料。昭和40年,日本因為工業化環境污染正嚴重時自動販賣機廠商推出一個奇妙商品,氧氣自動販賣機,投幣能換取一段時間的新鮮氧氣,這真的是很資本主義時代的商品。

人類污染了環境,然後販賣新鮮空氣當商品,1990年代左右我讀過的一本小說叫「怪物」的劇作集裡也有出現過類似的概念,只能說人類的罪孽深重啊🤧

雖然很久了這個劇本集裡讓我印象深刻的故事還有兩個,一個是建設道路,到最後在尋求回家道路的建築師的故事以及散發香氣讓所有人睡著的巨大花的故事。

半吊子的記憶力讓我記得概要,但詳細內容卻沒有完全記住,不過二十五年,竟然讓我記憶模糊,真是讓我感傷。

@smallcircles🫧 socialcoding..

Awesome!

I hope my response didn't come off snarky, as that wasn't how I meant it - at worst I intended to be a bit pedantic. And relatable analogies are *always* at my fingertips when talking to the inexperienced or "non-tech" social network users, for sure.

But *eventually* we need to draw people in to a little more media- and tech-literate understanding.

I'm bookmarking your blog post, thanks - this is a topic in my current academic modules and my hoped-for masters capstone

@johannabJohanna, CanCon variant No, not at all snarky. 💕

What is so interesting is to discern between the technical and social, and I think that most people have a very functional-technical perspective of what it means to communicate online, so to say. Consider it merely as extra channels to interact with others, more choice to connect.

But of course our online social network is much more than merely a channel, and we have to 'project our social' somehow over these thin copper and fiberglass wires, while we try to make sense and interpret the social signals that come from other remote places.

I think we underestimate the impact of communicating online, and the narrow 'social bandwidth' that our current networking tools support. Then we translate online situations to how we would behave offline and get wrong expectations, misconceptions, and subequenctly miscommunications.

We are still all youngers online, still all learning the ropes, while we do social networking offline for 1,000's of years already.

How the BBC chose to report on the US and Israeli attack on the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, Iran:

1. It used “dead” instead of “killed,” softening the violence and removing agency.
2. It relied on passive construction, carefully avoiding naming the perpetrators — the United States and Israel.
3. It added “Iran says,” subtly framing the massacre itself as an allegation rather than an established event.

Screenshot of a BBC news headline on a mobile webpage. The headline reads: “At least 153 dead after reported strike on school, Iran says.” The BBC logo appears at the top, along with menu, search, and profile icons. A timestamp below the headline says “20 hours ago.”

Red annotations have been added over the image: the word “dead” is crossed out and labeled “killed” with a downward arrow, and “Iran” is crossed out and replaced with “US/Israeli” with another arrow, indicating suggested wording changes.

The @IJFmediaThe IJF has found Surrey Speak’s content appears to be largely AI-generated and is laden with factual inaccuracies.

The website also published AI-generated imagery based on real events, including an altered portrait of a murder victim. Zak Vescera reports.

Well… I have serious doubts about this

  • US decided to attack because Israel was already doing it and the US didn’t want to suffer a “blow” without also blowing things on its own
  • Trump regime is stuck with a “partner” that is as rogue as the Trump regime itself, both are throwing things on the wall to make them stick, for different reasons, but in common they share one thing : survival, political survival.

Trump is running away from Epstein and Bibi is running away from himself and his war regime, they both need war to exist, they don’t even need a goal or an excuse, they just need war.

Reality is Trump is playing catchup with Israel and what have started a few days ago will last for generations to come.

This started as a post, but ended up a little bit too long for that...

In short, I'm looking for a company (or companies) that could be interested in investing in this vision for the social web. Please spread around.

⚠️ Update: Metrics show remains offline more than 84 hours into a regime-imposed internet blackout.

Access to the open internet is a lifeline in times of crisis and the shutdown shows a disregard for the public's right to stay informed and engage in their country's future.

Graph from NetBlocks showing network connectivity in Iran from February 24, 2026, to March 3, 2026. The y-axis represents normalized connectivity, ranging from 0% to 100%, and the x-axis represents the dates. The green line representing Iran's connectivity normal most of the time period, with a sharp drop on the morning of February 28. The drop in connectivity aligns with nation-scale internet blackout imposed during joint military strikes by the US and Israel. The minimum and current connectivity levels are indicated as 1% and 1%, respectively. The chart has a dark background with a red horizontal arrow labeled 'SHUTDOWN', indicates the period of disruption and includes the NetBlocks logo in the lower left corner.
