@IllNess @schizoidman I’m looking forward to alternate keyboards. When I tested a Framework device, I had the impression that the keyboard had been a linear one. I made the experience, that I need a tactile keyboard.

@Powderhorn In our company, we have theoretically had a “one day at home per week” rule for several months now. In practice, people usually work about 3 days a week at home. This is partly due to the fact that there is a works council agreement for some of my colleagues that is binding and can’t be overruled by management (thanks for German labor law!).
@throws_lemy Hyperloop is a solution for a non existing problem. There are already fast landline based systems. You can go really fast on rails (see Japan) or you can use a maglev.
@zepfhyr Elon is a person that is very susceptible for conspiracies that fit his world view and he propagates it loudly. Peter Thiel always stays in the background and acts from there.
@Moonrise2473 @sirdorius Well, Elon is evil by accident. Peter Thiel is evil by intention.
@0x4E4F Yeah, see the Wikipedia article about “Metallicity”.
@loki @dawnerd Well, since the accounts are now moved to their specific hosts, you can use these hostnames instead of the generic one when using their protocol. The only action where you currently still need the generic bluesky host name (bsky.app) is during some account related activities.
The different hosts already talk to each other using the same protocol that is already in use for third parties who interact with bluesky (like alternate clients or custom feeds). The only thing that currently prevents “real” decentralization is the user registry.
From the outside it appears as if it all was some monolithic block. But this is only the case since the default usernames are using the bsky.social
hostname. But in fact you can already use your own hostnames for your account, since the account is not locked to any hostname but to some unique hash. (Which is one of the advantages of their protocol and which we really should implement in the Fediverse as well to perform real account portability)
@loki What do you mean exactly with “other instances” in this context?
@notepass No. In difference to regular scaling you can see the host of your account. These are separate systems that communicate via Bluesky’s protocol and not via the regular scaling mechanisms.
@throws_lemy @noodlejetski The registry still is centralized, but the users already are distributed across multiple servers that talk to each other using that protocol.
@Fizz @throws_lemy Well, there are accounts from deceased people. Their posts will then be gone.
@mint @explore_broaden On Bluesky the people used a still image from the video to identify the apps on her phone - and Twitter isn’t even on the start page, but Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, Signal, …
@Interstellar_1 I would like to use one of them in Friendica as default avatars for Lemmy users who haven’t provided an avatar. Is this okay for you?
@IllNess @Grass My X230 is now more than 10 years old. At some point in time I will need to replace it. Then a Framework device would be the best choice - but only when they improve the keyboard or there are third party keyboards that better match my needs.
