Probably not, sorry.

Likewise. At least you tweet well!

wait can you clarify what you mean by "human level is important, ex ante" and what the compelling arguments against are?

Playing with logo designs for the AI Governance and Policy team.

What I like about this one is how original it is. Completely unlike any existing logo.

BlueSky does look more like twitter than mastodon does.

The bridge was not working that well on superstimulus' end so I turned it off. I think friendica (the software that runs superstimulus) will soon get a new release that fixes it, so maybe I'll turn it on again later. For now, I prefer the 2016-era-FB vibes of superstimulus, so will return there.

other question: does it have "groups" analogous to FB groups?

17.11.2024 06:54 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

it integrates better with mastodon if you're active there.

(I have turned off the bridge because the feed bluesky was serving to me was just a bunch of random posts that I guess someone I follow maybe interacted with, in a seemingly random order)

17.11.2024 06:23 ๐Ÿ‘ 2 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

does bluesky have polls yet?

the pitch is basically "decentralized social network but the UI evokes 2015-era FB, not twitter"

friendica instance, at superstimul.us. People there are mostly friends and friends of friends. There's a bridge that sort of but not quite integrates it with Bluesky.

Anyone know why suddenly many people seem to have moved here?

In any capacity? Why? Is phone autocomplete also not allowed?

having a low IQ is a choice, it's defecting and it should be socially punished

I'm out of the loop, what is this person talking about?

the vibes of archimedes banya are really nice
- saunas, hot tubs, cold plunges
- a bunch of tattooed russians with felt hats
- art of greeks / romans on the wall
- you can walk out to a view of cargo ships docking in piers, shrouded by mist
