EEE-ed it actually.
At least there's still AOSP and custom ROMs.

All hail the Elder @tk

@tk
#Slackware still uses it.

Shutdown the internet.

Pulling that shit off on the timeline almost makes 7564885-toot long threads by @pirwadgjl bearable.

Almost.

"...they’re necessary for social media to function."
...and yet the fediverse fuctions without them. Mindblowing.

Well kinda but not really...

Pretty. Mechanics lov'em.

Most aliens are humanoids with human characteristics, i wouldn't call it varied, only variations of the little green men. Sorry, persons.

It's hard to image aliens to begin with, but they could've tried harder. Maybe not Solaris, but something in between.

As for robot rights, they're just bits and bytes inside tins, c'mon, no never systems there, no sentience.

But the general worn out look of the universe is very compelling indeed. The Alien movies are another example in that respect.

@tk Bonus points for using less rubber on the tyres. Heck!, maybe it could have less tyres!

@tk
No ice tios time ?

That's the spirit, @evan, but I think you missed the point:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguish

"Our" network is not imune to that.
Others on this thread also highlighted how Google EEE'd XMPP. The list goes on, ActivityPub is not free from risk.

And I'm cynical.

Embrace. Extend. Extinguish.
And there goes ActivityPub....

M$ excels at that, see ActiveDirectory vs LDAP.
Google's more clever, they push DKIM and alike "in the name of security" ('cos "think of the children" won't stick,.it's not encryption) and then block your email 'cos it's spam.

The net result will be that those who are now using the fediverse will keep on doing so, and the newcomer "normies" will use a fediverse based on an incompatible doctored ActivityPub .

Then there's datascraping but they can do that with a simple client.
