vero
it:
-looks like ass, from a design standpoint
-why are they advertising zack snyder as a dude that i should be impressed by being on there
-founded by a bunch of men who are all billionaires
-has no explicit no-nazi policies
people over on birdsite are either shitting themselves over it or saying "don't wanna do vero because mastodon never took off" and i'm like... okay, buddy. i'll just be over here, on mastodon. we're doing fine.

Today I realized that I cannot expect people on the Internet to have heard of the Geek Social Fallacies any more.
The Geek Social Fallacies are five things that geeks often believe about How Socializing Should Work, that cause a lot of conflict. I've found them to be pretty useful as a way to put a handle on certain concepts, and maybe even avoid going into bad situations.

(Looking at them in 2017, I find myself wondering how many of the GSFs the design of most social networks is running straight into...)
📱, 🕓
My iPhone’s internal clock has somehow become throughly dysfunctional and at this point it’s a walking QA test.
I have observed:
- notifications arriving with an age of “in 1m”
- chat messages going out of order from the clock skew
- alarms firing up to 5 minutes late, while plugged in
- alarms not firing at all sometimes
I probably ought to replace this phone soon.

"You still sleep on gold?" said the other.
"So what are you on, Bitcoin?"
"Hardly. I hoard pillows."
"Ooh!"
