“He’s playing 4D chess while society plays checkers” okay but have you considered that if everyone else is playing checkers and you show up with a chess set, you’re not a genius, you’re just the guy who can’t read the room? Like the optimal strategy for a checkers game is not “bring chess pieces and move them diagonally while muttering about zugzwang” that’s just losing at checkers with a superiority complex

To those newly here from Bluesky, the thing I've seen people struggle with most is getting started curating their feed. Other services have an algorithm that shoves stuff in your face. Here, you need to actively build an interesting feed yourself. A few ideas: (1) when you find interesting people, see who follows them and who they follow; (2) when you find an interesting instance (mastodon server), look at its public feed; & (3) when you find an interesting hashtag, you can just follow it.

in reply to Moved to @bonfire@bonfire.cafe

@Bonfire@bonfire.cafe I'm very excited about the Bonfire developments, thank you for all your work! 🙏🤩

I was looking at the Open Science flavour / app (I'm still a bit foggy on the terminology), but there seem to be some dead links (e.g. on bonfirenetworks.org/app/open-s…, the "participate" link (to github.com/bonfire-networks/bo…); and on github.com/bonfire-networks/bo…, the "Open Science" link (to github.com/bonfire-networks/op…).

Do you know whether this is still alive, so to speak? 🙂

We planted and mulched the garlic today. Sleep well, babies! See you in ... oh gosh ... seven months (it is truly impressive that anything can survive our -40C winters and sprout in the spring)

Feeling moderately overwhelmed by all of this, but big ups to @etherdiver for shouting me out :owi:

Unfortunately, I was terminated from my previous role as a graphic designer at Materia Collective in June. I've been actively looking for a new role within the gaming industry to no avail...

Anyone hiring within the #indiegamedev and/or #vgm communites? 🙏

Scandinavia with Simon Reeve - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

Interesting documentary about how we can make our society a bit better. Things to learn from these Nordic countries, but also a bit of an expose of how even these tribes rely on the fossil fuel industry and so forth...
