Hey, I remember this! Shame it never seemed to go anywhere. Though then again, the wiki's still up? :/

Here's another interesting book review. It's about the promise, and failure, of the Soviet Union in the 50's. :/

Hey, so I think I managed to optimize Agora so it should run pretty okay now. Low power computers will likely still have some trouble, but the rest should handle it okay. And it runs a LOT better in chrome or chomium then it does in firefox. Take a look and tell me how it works for you? XD

Hey all what's up with peak oil? Is that still a problem? Did the deadline get pushed back, what with fracking and all? :/

...Huh. I remember seeing a thing, years ago, about some guy who had predicted the collapse of the soviet union, predicting the collapse of America in like 2020 or so. He said something like "The wealthy and the powerful, they see the collapse coming a good ten, twenty years off. So they start looting the country, and twenty becomes ten, ten becomes five. Until the country collapsing today, not twenty years in the future..."

Which is especially troubling, when I see an article like this one. :/

PS anyone recognize that quote? I'm pretty sure I saw it on youtube, but besides that, i don;t remember. :/

@Angle Better yet, if this works, train an AI to do it automatically for any chunk of text or audio you put in. So then you can just take your lecture, put it to music, and listen to it while you do whatever. XD

@Angle As evidenced that I'm using four times the recipes spices. XD

...Whats with those weird calls where you answer, and then nobody replies? Is it a computer trying to gather data about who you are? It makes me paranoid. :/

Huh. Heres a bizarre idea. Take a lecture, cut it down to the interesting bits, set them to music, switch it up a bit, and have it all repeat. Effective way to learn by osmosis while doing other stuff, or horrific abomination against both learning and music? You decide. :V

...Did you know that you can turn up the speed on youtube videos? I''m doing that for a lecture someone put on youtube right now, and it is amazing. Best thing ever. XD

...huh. They changed how planeswalkers work and I didn't even npotice. :/

Ugh. I have chrodingers bug, that happens relatively frequently - except when I try and run the profiler so i can catch it. Then it never happens. :/

Or if not, which one comes closest? I'd guess Scholar.social? :/

Hey all, is there a mastodon instance for journalists? :/

Someone shared this a day or two ago, I forget who. It's kind've terrifying, though. :/

@Gargron ...Huh. Do you not see pinned toots when looking at someones client through the usual mastodon interface? I only see your pinned toot when I look at your profile in a new window. :/
