Your comment is related, though. Right now, we have a representative democracy where a person like you might fall through the cracks because of the place you live. In a future where these technologies are in place, if they are robust enough, we may be able to have a direct democracy where people can vote on every single decision. Of course, that notion sounds a bit unrealistic and perhaps fraught with corruption and exploitation of any loophole, but it could work with zero knowledge cryptography and a host of other technologies that would make every vote incorruptible, immutable, and instant. The more realistic future (and one that I intend to push until I’m blue in the face) is one that is halfway between the two where, elections are impossible to cheat, voting technologies are open and verified, and every person has a vote on important decisions.

I have a Pelican 1510 that I keep my camera stuff in as well as many other pelicans of different sizes; however, I don't keep any batteries inside the cases..especially any that are Lithium Ion. I also keep a big packet of desiccant in the cases to prevent mold and fungus from spreading inside if left for long periods of time, unattended. These two items work together perfectly to preserve my gear. I suspect I could leave this gear in the cases for 100 years and come back to find all of it (except batteries) in 100% pristine condition.

1. Mlem: missing a lot of features but the ones that they have work very well. This one feels the most native because it is. This is my current choice because it is actually native and open source. That icon is ugly as hell, though.

2. Voyager: this one is a month ahead on features of ALL other lemmy apps. this one is the most feature-rich in that they have the ability to edit posts and do all kinds of other stuff. The non-native web app aspect causes it to lose LOTS of points in my book

3. Memmy: this one was easily my favorite but the recent updates have started to show how poorly architected it is. They have a TON of work to do under the hood to make this one feel solid again..and honestly, I sincerely think it may never feel as responsive and snappy because they made the strange decision to make an iOS only app in react native....

4. Liftoff: this one is pretty good but it just goes too far from the standard that Apollo set that I feel awkward in it.

5. Bean: this one is early days but already has some cool stuff that I wish other apps had (the profile button at the bottom has the icon from the currently signed-in user) I had been asking for that feature from other devs for FAR too long.

This glitch is annoying. This link/project is dead in so many different ways.

• It’s not open source.

• The site is down.

• NodeRed actually does what this non-working app says it does.

This is a great way to check whether the horrible asshole mods from /r/guitar are moderating here without specifically asking. 😂

I can't wait until this really rolls out. For now, though, there is NO information online.

Coltrane’s Sound when I’m looking for Giant Steps musical flow of consciousness while not feeling like I’ve heard it a billion times..

Then, I also adore his ballads and ballad compilation albums. I also love Coltrane’s ballad work because, IMO, he has such a muscular sound (if that makes any sense) that it adds character to his balladic passages (in contrast to Getz who was more stiff and in control at all times). Perhaps, in the visual world, what I’m describing is like if Basquiat painted a lush landscape at sunset.

Lemmy hug of death?

A few of the communities that I created here, I probably wouldn’t want to mod long-term. They’re a piece of cake at the moment but if the fediverse were to blow up, I’d have to hand them over to someone with more time.

[email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] and a few others were just created to keep those names in safe hands and I’d prefer to safeguard them until I can pass them on to another person who is deeply committed to the collaborative spirit of FOSS and wants to run a community with fair and gentle moderation, no gate-keeping, and not ban-happy like /r/guitar on Reddit.

Many would argue that this one isn't necessarily artisan but I'll allow it.

Also, thanks for (finally) fixing that title, bot.
