    Re-inventing the Ezine on Twitter

    Ask anyone under 40 what 'email' is. If you have a child under 30... email them and tell me when they see the letter. I'm counting.

    Most internet users are do-nothing basement dwellers

    Back when I spent two years as an 'opportunistic statistical hire' exploring the Evil Empire in its lesser hold, Dol Guldur/Redmond, I picked up two interesting factoids.[1] 1/ spam isn't due to spammers. It's due to people who CLICK on spam (idiots). 'Hotmail' researchers learned there was a...

    Re-inventing the Ezine on Twitter

    This is a reprint of a substack chat (rant) on this topic: Chat | Substack Currently, I slide my 'timeline' with reposts, often of replies to interesting threads. That leads to very good engagement at a low level, and fruitful inter-personal conversations on the topics I am interested in...

    Should Nerds Be Involuntarily Euthanised?

    I took the 'under 100s' to be age not IQ. I thought that was pretty radical, drowning all the puppies and start over with test tube babies, it's a total loss. 'Remind me again what you divide by in that Quotient?' 'High IQ' just means 'pretty cool given how old you are, grandpa' No one talks...

    Storm Comin' Thread

    Looking outside my den window, 1 mile from the Salish Sea... Glaciation not evident but it WILL happen soon. Have to love the Kitsap in Spring. Only time the atmosphere is this unstable, usually.[1] [1]: https://cliffmass.blogspot.com/2024/05/a-very-unstable-spring-atmosphere.html

    The Future Tech Architecture of the 'Circle of Crust'

    Just a reminder that the 'Circle of Crust' does have both a Social Media site and video streaming service -- Kitsap Social and MacroTube are however 'broken' at the moment for most users. If you click on the links below and then double click on 'https' and replace with 'http' they will in fact...

    No particular need to move poasts around but I've created a fork for continuing the (valuable) tech discussion above. https://thephora.net/phoranova/index.php?threads/the-future-tech-architecture-of-the-circle-of-crust.1365/ This doesn't mean the new thread has to be 'totally techie'... on the...

    The Future Tech Architecture of the 'Circle of Crust'

    Just a thread for free form discussion. Topic was introduced here: https://thephora.net/phoranova/index.php?threads/the-old-phora-was-a-beautiful-place.1004/page-4#post-12831 and a few poasts beneath it, but while that's a fun thread about Auld Crust Syne, that's not really the proper place for...

    The Gods and Generals Appreciation Thread

    We're going here again. Best to remember the last time we tried this... The last time the Republicans/Liberals held the high ground, and the Democrats/Conservatives were doing the charging... Do we really want to go there again?

    Absolutely agreed. Or even TOR + VPN. I'll be talking about privacy/security too. The end-user (99% of membership) won't want to 'do torrenting'... they'll want a link they can click on and see content. That's why *WEB* Torrents and WebRTC tech. My reco for installing software is about...
