Props for linking to that video; it's so good.
They really love using
Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me
in the context of abortion.
We were out of spinach (admittedly, I hate lettuce so I usually use spinach, instead) so I subbed in kale for my lunch sandwich, one time. I thought it worked alright, though.
Please put something like this behind a spoiler or something; there are those of us who've had that word hurled enough in our daily life that it suddenly appearing while browsing social media is alarm-inducing.
Yeah; exactly. You're seeing what I'm seeing. Reaffirming (to me) that this idea of ours is a good one.
I doubt I'd have the skill to write it but I've long thought something like Etsy could be interesting.
I think the federated nature of the Fediverse could do well to stave off the worst of any spamming.
But the thing I notice the most with independent sellers is that the bulk of what they're doing is networking, generally amongst friends. Which, really, is the ideal environment for goods and services to be sold.
But, since capitalism always demands the line goes up, places like Etsy inevitably abandon them and making their sites encouraging of that kind of interpersonal connecting in favor of entities which can mass churn products out.
Setting up shops in the fediverse would allow people to easily host their own shops (and not be reliant on the infrastructure of, say, Etsy) and boosting would organically encourage a web of trust since their friend is essentially saying, "I know this person; they're good." You could even have the code autotag listings with a hashtag so people can filter out those types of posts, if they don't want to.
Not sure how you'd handle federation when you first spin up an instance but, still, more alternatives are better than less, I expect.
I dunno; I think it'd be interesting.
Jerry already caught me up.
To those who haven't heard it before, it sounds like a way to note that Threads can interope with the Fediverse, now (I can see people who were super excited about Meta joining doing that).
Maybe it being capitalized also made it the first thing my brain jumped to.
In any case, I was mistaken and just hadn't heard of the term before; just ignore my original comments, basically: they're wrong.
Ah; I rescind my comments and apologize. I can see the reasoning.
What the Hell is a Threadiverse? Maybe we don't give a corporate entity branding and credit for a network we built well before they ever came along.
No because the year is a super large time; there's a reason people always say they take a bit to adjust to writing the new year in dates because it's s long enough period of time that it almost becomes automatic.
For archiving, sure; most other things, no (logically, ISO-8601 is probably the best for most cases, in general, but I'll die on the hill that MM-DD-YYYY is better than DD-MM-YYYY).
