if you keep refollowing me in an attempt to get me to follow you back, i will mute you. (this probably only applies to generic faceless accounts so don't worry if you're a human account, i'll follow you if you are interesting for me & my path)
Font rendering idea:
We have variable width typefaces
How about the font configuration panel in OSes and apps having a line nib config?
In it you'd be able to set the shape of the nib, any onset and coda shapes and flicks, nib angle, etc.
This would enable infinitely customisable font appearance
something that keeps returning to mind
self sovereignty versus large scale majix
we ARE being used in occult major arcana
used by the rulers in alchemica megalo
to achieve their societal manipulation
twisting us into polarity inside their economy artifice
so the thought is:
too many of us are totally unaware
thus we cannot align our power to escape
if another actor manipulates us without our knowledge or consent
with potentially good purpose
to combat the rulers
is that... ok?
______________
we are SO incongruent that I just don't see how enough of us can EVER become aligned to overthrow the Rulers
but if someone were to intervene, through large-scale alchemical manipulation
then perhaps we'd unknowingly reach critical mass
i suppose this is comparable to the inherent issues of democracy:
a) people often want what's best for themselves & don't think of others
b) people often don't know what they themselves actually need
c) people are uneducated & unaware of politics so vote poorly
_______________
i think this might also be something we NEED to think about, sooner rather than later
democracy is CLEARLY collapsing
the current society and hierarchy are collapsing
the economy (as we know it) is collapsing
and the ecosystem is also collapsing
someone and something IS going to rise to fill the power vacuum
perhaps we should be thinking about which form of manipulation we would allow and benefit from
something is going to manipulate us
may as well be aware and allow the right one in.
What would be awesome is if govt legislation and restrictions were irrelevant, and that companies and corporations simply behaved well because it is right, treated the environment well because it is right, treated employees well because it is right
Imagine that
It's time to fully ditch Google and M3ta and Apple and Amazon and any other tech behemoths that are owning us!
Over the next few weeks I'll be posting about all the apps and services that I've been exploring over the past few days.
There's a lot of options! I've been lazily dwelling in the Google garden ecosystem for far too long, it's very refreshing to hunt around the web and find new things. Google's offerings are rather antiquated, to be honest.
Check out Nostr!
A fully decentralised social communication network, totally non-hierarchical, not controlled by any entity, uncensorable, versatile, and you can access it from various apps.
Nostr is a protocol, not a platform.
Come join us!
I'll attach my profile in the next post
Western capitalism:
"Socialism is evil! Communism is evil! Etc!"
Western families:
Go on holidays with their young children to Viet Nam and Cuba and have a terrific time
i want a list of companies with a trustworthiness index
the trustworthiness is regarding "likelihood to betray fellow humans and lifeforms and the ecosystem and planet"
Maybe I'll just make this myself. I have been looking for a grapplable project to start myself off on programming.
Would be a great community-contributable platform, too. Cos there's no way I'll be able to set indices for every major company!
