@glynmoody I wonder is driving this. Going to another Chinese platform is not going to end well. I've never used Tiktok and try to avoid centralised platforms these days.

@glynmoody Just confirms how despicable they are. They are just out to disrupt and corrupt.

@glynmoody There's a lot of scepticism about AI, especially around here. Some of it is just novelty, but it can have real uses to get insights into data. Have to get past the hype.

@glynmoody If Musk takes down Farage and Bannon takes down Musk then I won't cry. Like rats in a sack.

@glynmoody Green energy can be cheaper than coal, so industry will want more of it. The US has massive renewable resources. Trump has to be confronted on his links with fossil fuels.

@evan Well I could name another, but it tends to get me into trouble :)

@glynmoody like rats in a sack. No loyalty with these low lifes

@glynmoody We just flew there, but would prefer to take the train. It's more civilised.

@glynmoody Some people make out it's an either/or situation, but we can have smart solutions. I assume a lot of farmers installed solar anyway as they need the income.

@glynmoody We need better infrastructure. Are the people available to do this and all the house-building?

@glynmoody I guess if they are eating squid anyway then they could have bone to use. Most solutions tend to involve some compromise.

@glynmoody I really don't see the point of meme coins and people should not take them seriously, but Musk has hyped Doge. FOMO and greed are powerful forces.

I'm more interested in crypto as a way to empower people, but it's still a minefield and people have to be wary.

I see plenty of people say all crypto is scams, but there are lots of projects with good intentions.

@glynmoody Africa could make good use of that power. We could max out our solar and wind first.

@evan Asking for a friend?

@glynmoody it's not like they really care about each other, so let them suffer. The world needs more empathy.

@glynmoody I've not even looked at Bluesky. I'm fed up with corporate platforms that either get shut down (Google!) or turn to shit. But people will go where their friends and preferred content are.

@dick_turpin Seems ironic that the image is not showing for me :)

It's probably easier for a dog to get voting ID than a teenager.

Let's see how the voting goes...

@evan you did well to avoid the actual answer.

@evan Vague questions get random answers. I run a lot, so I may think of different things to others. Of course if 'it' is a rabbit then I can rustle up a run from wood and netting.

@evan That's not generally a facility on the more open platforms I've seen. The Hive blockchain has everything as public, so I can't use it for such things.
