BREAKING: The US government has charged crypto market makers with market manipulation and fraud.

To catch them, the FBI (!!!) created a crypto token called NextFundAi to "identify, disrupt, and bring these alleged fraudsters to justice."

@delta @mattb @ShadSterling i mean, if the outcome is Android's default Calendar/Contacts/etc app have to get refactored to communicate over a public API, and I can redirect the default Calendar app to point at Nextcloud, then i am on cloud 9

(wait, isn't cloud 9 also the name of a hosting provider? ok i'm not on cloud 9 i'm on [vps provider name here])



@renchap Maybe I am boosting and replying too much, but it really looks weird when the "change subscribed languages" menu for my account is like this. No languages at all are selectable. I should be able to define in my profile which languages I post in, I know that a lot better than Mastodon does, apparently.

The issue is here:

I guess I don't understand what "public timelines" means. I thought it would at least affect my "Home" feed.


"For years, scientists and world leaders have pinned their hopes for the future on a hazy promise — that, even if temperatures soar far above global targets, the planet can eventually be cooled back down."

I've never belonged to that crowd. And it wasn't "climate scientists". It was climate economists and their "cost-optimised solutions". Often that implied doing less now, more later.

I've always opposed such approaches. In my view, we aren't even really trying yet.

Sean Hannity drilled down on Donald Trump’s hurricane conspiracies just minutes after a Fox reporter debunked them.

As is often the case, the two parties are most likely to agree on the issues in which both are wrong.

#Hurricanes bring flooding – and flooding brings often chaotic rescue efforts. “Cajun Navy” organizations – volunteer search-and-rescue groups that began spreading after Hurricane Katrina – are now expanding and evolving into permanent nonprofits, partnering with local emergency responders.

And the #volunteers come from all over the world.

We've all seen how the media has held Kamala Harris to a much higher standard than Donald Trump, normalizing his lies and fascist tendencies. Tomorrow, Todd Beeton will take a look at whether the media's coverage is improving. But is it too little too late? And yesterday, Jay Kuo examined what we can glean from early mail-in voting data.

When Harris told 60 Minutes she'd pay for her economic plan by raising taxes on the wealthiest, the interviewer replied: "But we're living in the real world." Imagine an interviewer saying that in response to "Mexico will pay for my wall." Outrageous.

There was a time that people respected the media and most wanted to be reporters in search of the true. Now media is no longer honest. Clark Ken is looking for an honest job. Garbage collector is more honorable.

I thought I'd seen news about a study that said "indefinitely" but I guess we're not far out enough for anything over three years to have a decent statistical basis.
in reply to Susan ✶✶✶✶

Statistics is a clever field. If you look at slopes and change of slope over time you can tease a bit more out of data than most people would imagine.
It has to have good data to begin with though. Otherwise, you get GIGO.
