Kinda makes me think of Filipino spaghetti. Banana ketchup and hotdogs! Actually not as bad as it sounds.

I associate it with "The Space Merchants" and their corporate congress.

It's a really good book written in 1952 and talks about climate change, rampant corporate greed, synthetic meat... Really good read.

Businesses are absolutely starting to prepare. I work in a highly regulated industry and the cuts to federal workers has already slowed down our business.

We are actually moving some manufacturing out of the US to avoid tarrifs on subassemblies.

If this chaos continues we are heading straight to a recession, no doubt in my mind.

holy crap there is a starlink alternative? Do they work in the US? I would love high speed internet at my house but Im in the sticks I get the most attenuated DSL signal allowed. Last I looked into starlink there was concerns about the long term viability of the technology. If I remember right, the network would get congested pretty easily. That plus Musk had me shying away, but if there is an alternative....

I think the community subscription model in the article fixes this (imperfectly). [email protected] can have strict rules while [email protected] could subscribe to it and pancakepurists could subscribe back with the understanding that the rules are slightly different there. [email protected] could similarly link to both those without either having to be mutually interactive.

I think the problem comes from some increased moderation loads by allowing a community to follow another. If I were to put on my paranoid hat it could be used to monitor and brigade a community. I think the solution for that is moderation tools. Banning instances, federation etc. I'm not a mod anywhere so I don't know what is possible.

Personally I think proposal 2 and 3 should happen concurrently. Using the example in the post I would setup a custom feed (that can hopefully consolidate cross posts) for breakfast. I would put [email protected] which subscribes to [email protected] I can also add [email protected] and [email protected]. so when someone posts about the best homemade peanut butter syrup recipe that is cross posted to my pancake and waffle communities, I don't get 4 posts about it, I can see it once and choose where to reply (pancakes obviously, I'm a waffle purist).

Community interlinking/subscription fixes a slightly different problem than custom feeds IMO. It's a really good idea, but I would personally still want custom feeds (with the ability to handle crossposts in a customizable way).

I used to have an old beige box router with dual nics. It would hum me to sleep at night ... I still have a box of wrt routers, you know, just in case someone needs one.

Looking at the other pictures, it definitely looks like some sort of spray...

Its bioengineered, no way he would go for it. Only organic brainworms for our homeopath in chief.
