False alarm. They just have an inflatable planetarium set up inside. No potato displays at all :(

Government messes this stuff accidentally on purpose. Rather tham creating a public option that competes with private insurance, they want people using the services to feel like they could be better served ny private interests.

Using public services is supposed to be objectively worse, amd even shameful, by the ideology of those creatinf and approving the services.

So, apparently Potato World is actually open today, unannounced. So, just this once, ~~everybody lives~~ I really can have it all

You don't need glasses during totality, if you happen to be in its path. If you're not, actully looking at the sun is the least interesting part of a pretty eh event, anyway.

No one owns ActivityPub

No, but they can become the biggest, most influential voice in how it contimues to develop.

The methods of regulatory capture work well beyond regulatory bodies.

Well, no, AI's not actually making money. It's drawing in speculators, though, so the hucksters hyping it are doing well for themselves.

AI is another VC white elephant. It's very expensive to run, with questionable reliability and a totally umclear future.

Right??!?

And it's a pretty big place, all things considered. But it's seemingly only open from September to mid-October.

You've had Potato World all this time, and you didn't share it with your neighbours??!?

I've heard that it's still a surreal experience even when overcast. Though, that's what I had to believe to actually book the hotel room and days off work as somene living on the north-atlantic coast.

I grew up near lakes and forests, so there's nothing weird about it.

Email's a really awful way of doing it just because how dehumanizing it is. An employer should be forced to look at the person whose livelihood they're taking away - forced to feel uncomfortable. Doing it by email is easier for them, and so shouldn't be acceptable.
