Just calculated my income on @OdyseeTeam
At current LBC price it comes out to an RPM (Revenue per thousand views) of US$132
My RPM on Youtube is US$2.41
(note the decimal point)
I'll spare you the calculation, I get 55 times more RPM on Odysee than Youtube.

4 years ago this day I was so riled up by politics that I made a sock account to argue politics on twitter. It consumed like 3 weeks of my life and I felt no better from it. Focus on what you can change and what can improve your life. There's no point in arguing politics here.

I'm considering muting the words Signal and Telegram. It just makes me sad to see all the people go from one centralized non-free place to another centralized non-free place, while they're thinking it's a good thing.
Trying to explain and educate them about ethical options, feels as fruitless as emptying the ocean with a spoon.
just like WhatsApp, it (Signal) requires users to disclose personally identifiable information: Providing a phone number is mandatory. As a US-based IT service provider, Signal is also subject to the CLOUD Act, which entitles US authorities to access the service provider’s data.

Telegram is still not e2e by default, right? always found it strange that otherwise tech-savy friends continue to prefer Telegram. Sorry folks but on…

You can still "stay in your lane" when it comes to politics. It is fair to have strong opinions about one issue while having no opinion on another.
It is unfair to expect someone to take a stance on an issue that they are ignorant about.

Monday software hot take:
Most programmers don’t actually need tons of screen real estate. All the fuss about watching 20 terminals, 6 web pages, & an IDE at the same time is Command Center LARPing. The more screen real estate you have, the less I assume you actually type code.

Starting a DSL from scratch rather than embedding it in a real programming language is folly. You should use languages that make embedded DSLs easy!

Lesson re-learned today: Just because you've been doing a thing for years now doesn't make you less of an idiot.
Assume you're an idiot before posting for help.
@BrodieOnLinux @distrotube Do you guys still get notifications about comments on #LBRY ? I used to when on #oddysee but not any more.
Starting some pickled cucumbers, should be done in about 2 weeks.
