At some point I will eventually get around to #replacing #deadsocial with a #version written in C. I have most of the #libraries #written now and even have some #compelling #security #ideas now. I am still yet to #solve some basic #issues such as #anonymous #comments for non- #users , but I get there slowly.
The most #compelling #evidence so far that a #early #variant of #covid #leaked from a #lab in #china https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/02.. It literally contains #sequence data *never seen before.*
Has been quite interesting to #listen to the #mikhailapeterson #podcast on #sweatshops - both #for and #against https://youtube.com/watch?v=t6-7SmYf8eM Both cases are #compelling ... I think in order to #market #capitalism to #work , the correct #incentives must be in place for #worker 's lives to #improve . I agree that currently it is not, but the current #method of #abandoning such #labour is also not useful. It's not clear what the exact #solution to this problem is though.
Looks as if after a #successful #brexit #campaign , #nigelfarage will be taking on the #green #agenda https://www.lotuseaters.com/farage-to-sp.. I would be very interested to see exactly what his points are, there are several #compelling cases for #energy #security , #nuclearpower , etc. We should also be bringing #manufacturing back into the #uk - we need to stop #outsourcing #emissions to #china ...
Ouch, relatively #compelling #evidence that #india have been #caught trying to #hack into #pakistan #infrastructure https://blog.malwarebytes.com/threat-int.. Looks like they accidentally #infected their own #host #machine ! You would think the first thing you would do is prevent your own machine from being infected! Damn.
Looks like #pine 's #pinephone now has a #keyboard https://www.pine64.org/2021/12/31/happy-.. This would now make the #device a #compelling #linuxpda - something I wish I now owned in retrospect given my own #phone #battery #failed and the #pinetab tried to kill itself.
A pretty #compelling #story that the #covid #vaccines are working as expected, preventing #deaths https://ourworldindata.org/covid-deaths-.. The largest number of deaths are in the un- #vaccinated , and even that is now on a downwards #trend as the most #vulnerable people are now #jabbed . Time to open up now, the #vaccine was a #success - let's get on with it.
This could be quite a #compelling #socialmedia #alternative https://www.manyver.se/ As others have pointed out, a #offline mode is a good indication of proper #decentralization ... #scuttlebutt seems like a pretty cool system, although its reliance on #blockchain means that it is doomed to be a #storage nightmare.
