Do you remember how long ago the last few open registration periods were? I'll try to keep my eyes open but it will help to know when to check more frequently. I use NZBGeek currently but OzNZB seems to be gone and I always prefer to have at least 2 for redundancy.

So you're saying that they're all concentrated in one relatively compact area then? Hmm...

Time to repurpose those skyscrapers for residential/mixed small business use I guess. Bring down the cost of housing in SF and make people want to live there again.

Yeah, good luck with that buddy.

The only news source I could find was Fox News: Biden authorizes military to use up to 3,000 reserve troops to augment US forces in Europe

The order comes on the heels of the president’s five-day trip to Europe, which wound through the U.K., Lithuania and Finland. The trip was meant to demonstrate the force of the international coalition against Russia's invasion of Ukraine. And Biden appeared confident he had accomplished that mission, proclaiming that he and other NATO leaders showed the military alliance "more united than ever."

That sounds like a reasonable compromise. I'm glad that they got it passed. Now get to enforcing the law that prevents those senators who shut down the legislature from running for office next election...

This is about the most uniquely Oregon story I've ever read. And I mean that in the absolute best way.

Well now I 100% know who NOT to go to! Thanks for the heads-up!

Occupation. And wasn't it a handy coincidence that the two countries we occupied, Afghanistan and Iraq, just happened to bookend Iran in the middle.

If the fediverse represents the soon-to-be-replaced web 2.0 of the past, what do you see replacing it and why do you think that will be incompatible with the fediverse apps?

I could see some block chain security/authentication features added to federated apps, and hopefully end-to-end encrypted DMs will be enabled by that same technology too. I'm just having a hard time imagining something "new" that will replace this completely.

There will probably be several TikTok-like entertainment platforms, likely filled with ad-friendly AI generated content that is 100% under corporate control and costs almost nothing to produce, but that type of platform attracts a different audience than what we have here.

Duckduckgo.com uses Bing as its back-end. Honestly I prefer both to Google anymore.

It's hilarious that this assumes old.reddit.com will survive more than a year or two after IPO.

 

Twitter plans to focus on video, creator and commerce partnerships to revitalize the social media company's business beyond digital advertising, according to an investor presentation by owner Elon Musk and new Chief Executive Linda Yaccarino that was reviewed by Reuters.

Yaccarino, who started as CEO on June 5, told Twitter investors on Thursday that the company is in early conversations with political and entertainment figures, payments services and news and media publishers, said a source familiar with the matter, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a private investor call.
