I splurged a little while back on a Brother HLL3290CDW. A bit spender than a monochrome laser, but the image quality is fine and it lets my wife print off as many stickers as she wants without having to spend big bucks on ink every couple of weeks.

Anthony’s by Midway (63rd and Cicero) makes a dope beef IMO.

Unfortunately not. Language learning is not my forte lol

They say he’s in the Meta verse now… 😓

This is very possible, and it is important to remain cognizant of this possible goal. However, I think it is ultimately our responsibility as members of the fediverse to ensure that we are making the non-Meta communities interesting and engaging.

Ultimately, if an instance does become toxic to the principles of another instance, then de federation always exists as a nuclear option. 🤷‍♂️

Agreed. The absolute best case would be having Meta publishing open source contributions to existing projects or making their software FOSS. However, very few corps have ever been willing to make that type of commitment.

I don’t think we should be praising Meta for making Threads, but I also don’t believe there is a need to actively detest it’s existence. If nothing else, I hope that its compatibility with ActivityPub allows mainstream users to find some niche communities that interest them, which they may never have found otherwise.

I understand the sentiment, but it seems like a bad take to assume that because a corporate entity produces an app that can interface with the Fediverse then it will kill the Fediverse.

If Threads has some features that draw people’s attention then it should serve as a guide to help the TPA developers set course for future features.

This is what I imagine Urithiru to look like (Storm Light Archive).

No kidding! I posted an issue on github yesterday and it was fixed in the release this morning. Absolute machine.

I mean, I hope they survive but I’m not holding my breath.
