Could you give me 6 random numbers that are between 1-49 please?
Just remember to wait 11 years before doing anything with those numbers,otherwise it won't work.
1, 0, -1, -2, -3, -49
6 6 6 6 6 6
4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8
29
9,41,8,7,24,33.
12, 4, 3, 41, 8, 23
1, 1.5, 1.75, 1.875, 1.9375, 1.96875
Dude is going to play the lottery with the numbers for the next eleven years.
There is fortunately enough content across the fediverse currently to keep me away from Reddit and I hope it stays like this
And it will keep growing once Reddit finally kills the 3rd party apps!
i want to keep using RIF as long as i can, but within 5 days its all fed all day.
The Lemmy apps are slowly catching up to the point where it's close enough to not matter. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying the lack of useless fluff posts and doomscrolling that I used to do on Reddit.
Got any stock picks?
How does it feel to have something macro level you wanted actually come true?
I am very happy that lemmy is taking off now with reddit alienating their users.
It's funny when this kind of thing happens. I built an app that was basically tindr for a project in college, several years before tindr started. Guess I should have release it
Wow! Something similar for me: in 2007 I built a website that had the same functionality as Hungry House. Basically a place where take-away restaurants could put their menus up and take orders. It didn't take off and it only cost me a couple of month's of work. Then Hungry House, Uber Eats etc came along a decade later and nailed it.
To be fair to you, I don't imagine they did anything better than you on the menus and ordering, it's the fact that they provide the delivery that made it work
I remember thinking about making a website that would let people buy groceries from my site at a markup, then I'd go to the local stores, do the shopping, and deliver it to them. That was probably around ~8 years ago, inspired by my job managing a pizza place. Like "Hey, people are lazy and love getting food delivered to them, why doesn't anyone do groceries, too?"
Though I never built it out because a developer I may be, a businessman I am not.

…and what do you think the internet will look like 11 years from now?
Chef's kiss also that aged wine be mighty fine!
That is spot on!
okay now do the internet in 2034
Welcome to the future! :)
Joo got it mang
Years or days?
It literally says "11 years ago" in the picture
Kurzweil is that you?
So I was looking for your last post, not comment, and found that question about Yoga's background you posted on AH. And, Wow, askHistorians was crap 12 years ago. Reminds me more of /r/history than anything else. There's someone linking to a cracked.com article.
You're a prophet in my eyes, ser 👀
Dude, if I'd seen your comment 11 years ago, I would've thought that would be nonsense...
You were kind of a visionary.
(kind of, because decentralized social networks existed since then, but still).
Yeah I just did a search and looks like OStatus predates my comment. Plus it was more wishful thinking than an attempt to predict the future.
And no upvotes, because it's obviously a stupid, unworkable idea.
What are your new predictions, oh time wizard?
Can we add to this free broadband wifi in all populated parts of the world?
I suspect with about a billion dollars (and but for the local state-enforced stakeholder protections in some areas) we could actually do this.
In that vain I would advocate for meshnets over ISPs.
How long do you think it will take before we have decentralized/federated identities to go along with it?

OP confirmed for witchery.
Did you actually remember that you had made this comment?
