Although Oklahoma is known for wide-open spaces, this "cramped" little grocery store was built in 1930 along historic Route 66 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Now on the National Register of Historic Places, the tiny building and its huge milk bottle advertise Oklahoma's famous Braum's Ice Cream and Dairy Stores. #52frames_cramped #Photography

@thomasfuchs Very true about the public-private partnership that has greatly benefited SpaceX (although I would argue it also benefited the taxpayers). I am also concerned about the large constellations and their impact on astronomy! Great point.

@thomasfuchs I understand (and agree with) much of the criticism of Elon Musk. However, SpaceX has been an unqualified success. While NASA tends to “go slow and get it perfect” at great expense, SpaceX embraces iterative design where failures are expected and used to improve the final outcome. Each approach has merit, but my opinion is that SpaceX will get Starship working reliably and launching several times before even the third $4 billion dollar SLS launch.

@RL_Dane @michel_slm @benjaminhollon @mike @indie1337 @Vivaldi I am admittedly not a web developer, but I don’t understand why WebKit is not mentioned more in these discussions about Blink and Gecko. Is it way behind in terms of features and performance? I would be interested to see Gnome Web (Epiphany?) gain traction as a viable third alternative. Doesn’t Apple use WebKit for Safari? It seems like that already has millions of users.

@michel_slm @RL_Dane @benjaminhollon @mike @indie1337 @Vivaldi @gnome @AsahiLinux Agreed. I have a love/hate relationship with Apple. I attribute my passion for computer engineering and my career as a firmware engineer to those early days exploring the Apple II+. They make amazing products. I am frustrated by their closed attitude. You would think an environmentally-minded company like Apple would embrace right-to-repair.
