@aeronmelon Exactly! Hahaha _
> The ability to opt-out of quote posts is also currently planned, which makes it that Mastodon’s implementation will not be compatible with other fediverse implementations of quote posting.
Not surprising. Even before ActivityPub was announced, when the #fediverse was still powered by #OStatus, Mastodon was already breaking compatibility. There were countless of heated debates about almost every Mastodon-only "feature" they implemented that all other Fediverse devs were _forced_ to implement.
And here we are with yet another.
I wonder what will supporters of opt-out or anti-quotepost camp will do if the other Fediverse devs ignore this Mastodon-only "feature", and just continue with the common implementation of quote posts? Are we going to see a new reason for "fediblock", and finally fragment the Fediverse network?

It has been around since 2010, but it goes all the way back if we count its predecessors. It is also an open-source game.
As of this post: \* There are already 3 expansions. \* The 4th expansion is set to enter beta testing soon. \* The 5th expansion is already being developed in parallel.
Give it a try, available in Linux, Windows, and OSX. (Also available via Steam.)

@trashgirlfriend I remembered, #Walkr, a space gamification fitness app, have an option to "boost" steps when you're about to go on a long walk/run/jumping rope session. You can use it once every 24 hours only (and only lasts for 2 hours IIRC).
I think, now that you suggested it, that was maybe their solution to keeping the sensitivity fixed for their game, but giving users a chance to earn more if they're about to engage in a long session.
🤔
@trashgirlfriend Ooh. I like that! It could be a widget too for easy access.
@hornedfiend @schamppu I think the game is set to medium sensitivity, or Low. There are some fitness apps with a sensitivity setting, and if you place it high, it is more accurate. The problem arises if you're just moving your phone, since it's high sensitivity, it counts those as steps. So, most apps have it at medium or Low. That's my guess at least.
@commander_la_freak @emeralddawn45
That's a new way to explain it, “frame rate”.
Most #scifi that touches on #ParallelWorlds and #TimeTravel use some sort of vibration or frequency. Even in the 90s Japanese #anime entitled #SerialExperimentsLain, it used the Schumann resonance to explain its plot. And of course in #Marvel and #DC they do the same.
But, yeah, I'm not sure either about it. Is there a way to find out which author/writer first thought of this idea? Or, was it based on a real-life theory that scifi authors picked-up independently? Or, was it Star Trek that created this approach?
(And again, that frame rate approach is great. _)
The way they used #QuantumEntanglement in S03E01 of #LaBrea was a very good one. I haven't seen that in other #timetravel #scifi.
But, were not Discovery's computers upgraded to Quantum computers? So, it should have a capability to communicate using quantum entanglement and not subspace?

If you are from #Korea #한국 and you're wondering why a powerful talent like #Elisia is trying to debut in the #Kpop industry, there are a lot of reasons and some of it are the following based on my own observations.
(in no particular order)
- No opportunities.
- The idol industry is still in its infancy, even though it has been around for more than 10 years.
- It is very hard to promote talents.
---
NOTE: This is my own analysis of the situation.
I. The P-pop industry
The Pilipino Pop (a.k.a. #Ppop) industry is focused on bands and solo singers. In the “solo singer” category, one has to have gone through an intensive proper singing lessons, or born with the talent in singing. One can probably say that this became unwritten criteria because Filipinos are generally great singers.
Let's face it. Before #Jpop and #Kpop became popular abroad, P-pop was already making waves, it just wasn't called “P-pop” (Pilipino Pop or Pilipino Popular Music). Also, the subclassification #OPM (Original Pilipino Music) was pushed in the 80s and became more used as a label for anything Filipino music (even though it was not “original”). There were also a lot of P-pop which topped the charts in #Japan and Korea; and many of those were also translated in Japanese and Korean languages.
This made the P-pop industry very competitive, to the point that, talent agencies will only give an opportunity to those who had proper singing lessons from reputable schools and/or well-established mentors. Then the 1997 economic crash and the dotCom bubble crash happened, many talent agencies closed, and investors after those only want to invest if there's a very high guarantee of success.
Talents like #Elisia, #GehleeDangca, and #AyaNatsumi (all from the Philippines) have no choice but to try to debut in the K-pop industry because there, they have a better chance (as compared here in the Philippines) to be recognised.
II. Projects and promotions.
The Philippine entertainment industry is dominated (if not controlled) by only two networks: GMA and ABS-CBN. If you are promoting in other local networks, it won't look good for the investors. The problem is, these two big networks almost always get what they want: exclusivity. And if you do sign to be exclusive to either of them, there is no guarantee they'll give you exposure and projects. After all, they already have a lot of talents under their own labels, and you are from a label they do not have a majority shares.
Even if a talent signed for the labels under these two networks, there is still no guarantee. They have far too many talents signed, but they can not produce enough projects for even half of them.
There are 110 million Filipinos in the Philippines, compare that to the 52 million Koreans in South Korea. Yet, there are far more talent agencies in Korea than the Philippines, and talents from different agencies can appear in any Korean network; which you rarely can do in the Philippines.
For example, talents from agencies not under GMA or ABS-CBN rarely appear in music shows produced by GMA and ABS-CBN unless they signed an exclusive deal with them. If you are a producer, and you want to produce a music show where anyone can be invited, they won't allow it. Or, if they'll allow it, the labels won't allow their talents to appear in the show (because they either signed an exclusive deal already, or planning to).
III. Conclusion
So, think about it. How can talented Filipinos have a chance in the P-pop industry if the industry itself is gatekeeping it? No wonder the Philippine idol industry is still in its infancy even after more than 10 years has passed.
Talented Filipinos, like Elisia (who is receiving the highest praises from the judges of #UniverseTicket and K-pop producers), are targeting the K-pop industry. They have a fighting chance there to achieve their dreams. Even the Korean contestants started to see how different Elisia is.
Let's not forget #GehleeDangca. Her group did not win in their match, so only two from her group can earn the “Unicorn Ticket” (judges pick who will advance to the next round/level automatically). Gehlee was the second choice from their group.
If these two are so talented, why have they not debuted in the P-pop industry?
Well… #Philippines #필리핀
P.S. To the respectable Senator who complained about Filipinos focusing too much on foreign entertainment instead of local, the problem is not that Filipinos don't like local, we do, the problem is the industry. Instead of complaining, create laws that will make the industry better (like eliminating the improper use of exclusive contracts).
I think (https://c.im/tags/Elisia) 🇵🇭 should debut solo. Elisia can be the 3rd (https://c.im/tags/BoA), 2nd (https://c.im/tags/IU), 2nd (https://c.im/tags/KimSeJeong),
I think #Elisia 🇵🇭 should debut solo. Elisia can be the 3rd #BoA, 2nd #IU, 2nd #KimSeJeong, 2nd #Suzy all at the same time. She's an all-rounder & too powerful to be in a group. She was a child actress too under Star Magic.

A very good #quote from #굿닥터 #GoodDoctor.
I am still a little different from other people. I speak and act a little differently. So I tried very, very hard to eliminate the differences, but I couldn't do it. The more I tried, the more it hurt. So I thought I'd always be different until the day I die.
But many nice people filled in the gap for me. And that is how I am standing before you today. Thank you for filling in the gap. Thank you for not avoiding me. And thank you very, very much for your love.

Yep, it is weird. There are strict guidelines for franchises. Sadly, I can't find it anymore. But, it makes sense as an explanation why some stores have small chicken (like last week, a certain store along Kalaw their chicken obviously came from a small breed; not the big breed Jollibee is known for); even though there isn't a reported chicken supply problem this year.
Or maybe, franchises have an option to order the big or small chicken breed from JFC? The small chicken breed is cheaper? But still, it's a question why JFC doesn't have the same breed of chicken across all stores in the Philippines, or even within NCR.
Like what I mentioned earlier, minsan na lang ako kumain sa labas, maliit na manok pa yung sa branch na 'yun.
Although I'm not sure if there's any legal issues in doing that?
Maybe it's fine to track which ones are franchise stores, and then store the information in #OpenStreetMap. But I'm not sure when it comes to if the branch's chicken is big or small. _;;
That I'm not sure. I only recalled reading how franchise stores basically have more freedom, and they have an option to choose their own source (for example chicken) as long as they use the same recipe and pass HQ's quality tests.
Since then, whenever the chicken is smaller, I assume it's a franchise store that decided to source independently. Because the ones that come directly from JFC are from big chickens.
I guess the best way is to ask.
Hmm… that gave me an idea, track and mark branches that are franchises and have small chickens. _;;
@heliosef Ito? https://twitter.com/kippschickenph
Haha, I will try it! _
@heliosef Ganito siya lumabas (attached screenshot).
But, yeah, mamantika nga. Ginagawa ko, lagyan gravy.
Although if there are more options, Uncle John's chicken and KFC Philippines chicken are better.
Uncle John's chicken, it's crispier, less grease, and consistently big. Sa Jollibee, if it's a franchise store it's small; but if it's handled by JFC itself, it's big.
While the chicken of KFC Philippines is soft and tastier, on the medium size.
Hmm… Mang Inasal too? Still, I'll pick Uncle John's or KFC Philippines over Jollibee and Mang Inasal.
Hmm… There is a misconception on what the #Fediverse is and what is the goal, which unfortunately is what the press are telling people.
-
The Fediverse is about bringing down the walls (silos / walled-garden).
-
It never had the goal or objective or vision to replace Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, Flickr, Blogspot.
The Fediverse software available today are the materialised ideas of developers who believe in a federated SocialWeb, which by the way, is the original #Web3 (not crypto). It goes all the way back to 2005 (probably earlier, I don't have my notes).
The goal was to get existing silos to open up and federate.
It just that, there are more developers who are excited about it, so we started to see serious projects related to the Fediverse. If I remember correctly, Misskey was not a Fediverse project when it first started. So, one would say Misskey was the first non-federation project that joined the fediverse network.
If these silos don't federate, it's fine too, because there are existing software and instances available.
And it has always been about choice.
If users want to stay with silo #SNS by all means. The fediverse is not here to replace them, the fediverse is here as an option and as a solution to the issues plaguing silo networks (like ads, privacy, content license, to mention a few).
That's what the fediverse is about and always have been to this day. It is never about replacing this and that, or recruiting people to switch over and encourage them to delete their silo SNS accounts. These other things were simply the passion and convictions of the users who migrated and some of the developers who developed fediverse software, it's not part of the fediverse itself.
It's just a protocol. Again, I'll use email here. If you have a server, you can choose to install your own email software. The protocol is there. Various email software are there. OR, you can just use Yandex or Gmail or Zoho and use the custom domain feature (or use their email hosting services).
If Twitter and Facebook implement the protocol, hooray! Mission accomplished. If they don't, that's fine either.
So, yeah, people are hating that Instagram will implement the #ActivityPub protocol and join the #Fediverse network. They have valid reasons and it is understandable. However, the fediverse started to be a #WebStandard protocol to allow federation and bring back the #SocialWeb as it was intended to be.
For us who were there in 2005 already, and when the first Fediverse software and instance came online in 2008, that is still our vision and goal, to bring down the walls of silo SNS.
If you want to see the potential of (https://c.im/tags/MixedReality) (especially in gaming) I highly recommend the (https://c.im/tags/Kdrama) entitled (

“Autism Awareness” vs “Autism Acceptance”
“Autism Awareness” vs “Autism Acceptance”
In a nutshell, based on what I experienced just now.
\#AutismAwareness is people just being aware. Nothing else. They still don't understand #Autistics.
On the other hand, #AutismAcceptance is taking an effort to understand and to reach out. To work with.
One is harmful.
The other is win-win.
Two stereotypes about us (https://c.im/tags/Autistics) is we like (https://c.im/tags/PrimeNumbers) and (https://c.im/tags/EvenNumbers). I'm a “yes” and a “no”.
Two stereotypes about us #Autistics is we like #PrimeNumbers and #EvenNumbers. I'm a “yes” and a “no”.
I do like Prime numbers and Odd numbers: \* 17 \* 13 \* 7
17 is very special. \* 17 is the 7th Prime \* 1 is an odd number \* 7 is an odd number \* 17 is an odd number \* 1 + 7 = 8, although an even number, it symbolises infinity and eternity, and us #ActuallyAutistics
13 is also special. \* A Prime \* An Odd \* A Fibonacci number
And depending on whom you ask: \* The 8th Fibonacci number \* The 7th Fibonacci number
Ironically: \* The anniversary of my first romantic relationship was on: 1997-07-17. It was my first love who picked that, and she had no idea what my favourite numbers are. \* My height is 175 cm or 5'7.5" to 5'8.5" (depending on whom you ask). \* Favourite time of the day: 07:00 and 19:00 (7pm). 19 is the 8th Prime. (There's 8 again.)
And I'm #OpenlyAutistic. _

How about you? What two #Autism stereotypes is you and not you?

I'll start with mine.
(in no particular order)
It seems easier to play than #SimCity, but as you progress, it is actually challenging. I love the challenge.
- #Empire / #EmpireClassic (DOS version specifically).
If I am not mistaken, before there was the #Civilization franchise, there was “Empire”. It was a fun game. There is #EmpireDeluxe available on #Steam, but I miss the DOS version that I played a lot.
A very fun game. Once I start playing this, time flies fast. I miss this game.
Here's a video of it, it's hard to explain this game as there are many features/gameplay “modes” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBJ0q52bXJM
Modern games today are usually limited to certain themes. If it's flight, it's flight. If it's tank, it's tank. If it's strategy, that's it. Carrier Command have it all.
- #Hyperspeed / #Lightspeed (DOS)
Years before the era of #EVEonline came. RPG-ish space game that made me felt exploring space. This was new to me then and I enjoyed it.
- #StarControl / #StarControl2 (DOS)
I know, we can still play this today, however, what I miss with this game is the 2 player mode.
You just play with your friend and blast each other to friendly matches and laughter.
Being able to play 2P mode, face-to-face, is something that we have taken for granted, and now we're all just virtual avatars in online games (even online multiplayer games).

So, how about you?
Q: What are the five (5) video games from the 20th Century that you want to be able to play again today? And why?
