   @dalias @elsie @hellomiakoda Vinegar might not work but HCl if you can get a hold of it (doesn't need to be concentrated) probably will.

   It might also be really sophisticated and check for enzymes etc which are present in the stomach-- in that case uhhh vomit into a cup and strain out the solids or something. Ew.

   You can literally take ANY comment from this guy and drop it into ANY #AI and ask it to locate the racist tropes, and it will.

   It always astounds me how racist Europeans are and how they double down on that racism EVERY TIME.

   It shows you how powerful mainstream media is and how it is responsible for forming racist ideas in people that never interacted with anyone that wasn't white.

   (6/?)

   Not for the first time, reading the section on protocol handlers made me think about extended, future fediverse apps as a potential *replacement* for existing corporate-enshittified web browsers (and yes, I'm including Mozilla in this). Social web browsers, if you will.

   It would be trippy to live through 2 complete media navigation transitions in one lifetime (broadcast>web, web>social web). But with enough UX tweaking and a critical mass of adoption, it could happen.

   I suppose it is conceivable that a universe might be just matter flattening onto the surface of a rotating black hole, in which case, we might be the solution to the question of whether information is lost when it enters one. I wondered about that years ago. It would yield, I think, a spreading, but very flattened, universe. The universe would then tend to acquire the rotational velocity of the black hole, though not all at once. But I wonder why there wouldn't be a directional gravitational bias, if slight. It should be measurable.

   If the above is ever proven true, Sabine will no doubt be pleased that there might be no free will.

   It seems like, if you're a holographic universe replaying events of a past universe, then the whole darned universe got sucked into a black hole, not just a planet or two, and a black hole becomes a surface broadcasting holograms which look like what we see.

   If that is the case, what can we say about smaller, local black holes? Are they replaying solar and planetary inputs? Where?

   It would seem like, if there is replaying going on, it would be inside of the event horizon, although there is black hole radiation, so what do I know about that?

   On the plus side, the information paradox would seem to disappear altogether. Yay, no paradox.

   But then we are possibly living through the replaying of what happened to a doomed universe. Cheery.

   And the passage of time is perhaps then underpinned by the rotation of a gargantuan black hole playing out a dead universe's data. Then local black holes should be altering the rate of the passage of time somewhat. Is the passage of time somehow coupled to the rotational rate of a gargantuan black hole, modified and localized by the presence of matter? Is its arrow fixed because of a gargantuan black hole's rotation? Hm. Could time have angular momentum?

   I have officially reached peak coffee for today. Back to debugging misbehaving video game bots. Hey, if this is a black hole rerun, I've fixed them already. Woo-hoo!

   @writermonki Yep I agree.

   @FediTips is another great way to learn the ropes if you will.

   It's doing a great public service!

   Daily inspiration: "You can create more opportunities or you can create more problems. Choose wisely." - Futurist Jim Carroll

   It's all about a series of choices.

   You can choose to be a barrier, or you can choose to be a gateway. Someone forging a path for going forward, or on a road looking back, towards a destination called tomorrow instead of getting back to yesterday. A mindset that chooses to be part of the change process to get there or one that chooses to get in the way. Someone who chooses to become a team member who builds enthusiasm for the reality of change, or someone who chooses to stew in their anger, worry, and concern for the fact that change is happening. Someone who understands the scope and scale of the effort for the journey, or someone who goes through the motions and slows everything down.

   Every time I look out at an audience, I try to read the mindset of those in the room. I can often see it in their faces and body language - the change engineers seem eager and engaged, the change destroyers sullen and downcast. I know that my message will resonate easily with those in the former camp. I work hard to try to reach some of the latter, knowing that if I can reach just a few of them, I will enjoy some success through my efforts. And then I can spot those who have no interest in tomorrow - and view my message with hostility. I can't reach them - I never will.

   It's an odd job at times.

   The sad fact is that those who choose not to be a part of the journey end up causing a tremendous number of challenges that make the future-forward journey more difficult for everyone else. The key thing is that their efforts usually have little chance of success.

   They end up causing more problems than opportunities - and it never works out well for them!

   The fact is, change is going to happen. That's a reality.

   Deal with it.
