🏒 Lucian Marin Go as far as you can or don't go anywhere at all.
Jmt Jaz As far as you can = all the way to the end.

🧿 Kai Kubasta It's nice to see that niche communities keep existing.
Seth Yay! Happy to be back!
🐵 David Wanting more than even to run Subreply on my own domain. Maybe it gets open sourced in 2025! :-)
🏒 Lucian Marin Nothing like Bluesky fake domain name handle.
😀 Tom Happy 10-year Subversary to me!
🦇 Arr Late to the party, but unbelievable, that a single server survived so long. Or more precise, a login on it. With one rename of said server, I guess. Congrats on your persistance.
🏒 Lucian Marin I think I will shut down Sub this time. New social networks can do more than I can do.
👨‍💻 Timo Whoa! Totally forgot about this fun little social network! Thanks for the reminder mail
🏒 Lucian Marin You're welcome. I couldn't send the email to everyone, just the latest active users.
🏒 Lucian Marin Is the world falling apart with deep fakes?
🙂 Roy It's piling up with deep fake garbage.
Zero Edge To any and all who have a WordPress website you should know that ALL WordPress websites have a bus factor of 1. If 1 guy gets hit by a bus and dies you lose all ability to update your plugins, and keep your website up to date with the latest security patches. This is from the man himself: pbs.twimg.com/medi... Do you really want to build ANYTHING ontop of a single point of failure? Anyone with a business on WordPress should consider migrating. Do not build on WordPress.

Pzumk This is crazy. Are there other big sites or tools with a bus factor of 1?
Pzumk 🎅 "What are your plans for Christmas?" - phew, it's September. Can we please wait at least another month before we talk about Christmas?
🏒 Lucian Marin I'm broke for this Christmas. Can we talk about the next one?
Pzumk Going through old bookmarks because I'm bored but maybe I should just go for a run instead even though my knees are starting to hurt from running 3+ times a week. I'm getting old.
🏒 Lucian Marin Running will get you younger and also fix your knees.
🏒 Lucian Marin Robots in human form should be banned. Fighting robots is impossible and human rights should be more important. Turning off a machine in a different form is easier. youtube.com/watch?...
🤘 Matthew I agree about the importance of human rights, but in the US we have millions of people who have no trouble terminating other human beings, though most of them are too cowardly to bloody their *own* hands. They call themselves "conservatives" and even claim to be Christians. They should have no trouble shutting down robots, too, especially if they get "uppity" and aren't content to be counted as three fifths of a person for the purpose of apportioning seats in Congress. We can't even treat ourselves and each other with basic human decency, so we have no business making AI in our own image.

🦇 Arr Just read a heading on hackernews: "making social "social" again". This site here is what makes social media "social", instead of corporate, again. (But media is technically just text, so not media, but social text, at its best, I guess.)

🏒 Lucian Marin Yes! How many times I need to explain it? Subreply is HN version of a social network.
🏒 Lucian Marin Let there be peace and prosperity on Earth!
🍕 Mattia Tezzele is this thing still on?
Zero Edge I love being lectured about the price we charge for labor being too high by people who pay their illegal alien laborers below minimum wage, don't pay unemployment, medicare, social security, taxes, insurance, health care, paid sick leave, paid family leave, or workers comp. You know those things you voted for that are meant to protect those people from scalpers like you?
🏒 Lucian Marin A few minutes ago I prayed to God while walking. I scared a stray dog that ended up in front of a car. The car stopped not to hurt the dog. The car number plate had GOD written on it. Dog spelled in reverse is God.
Zero Edge Matthew 7:7- "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." .. Sometimes when He gives me alignments like that it terrifies me.
