That guy who is almost, but not quite as funny as he thinks he is.
I don’t post much here, but I’m pretty excited about my new mobile game for iOS, Bivouac.

It’s an AR-lite PVP strategy game, and it’s not only super fun, but it’s also great exercise!

Download it here:

apps.apple.com/us/app/bivou...

Or read more about it at bivouac.app.

Honestly, even in the edited version that was clear to me. But it’s disingenuous on his part, and actually an almost onomatopoeic statement, in that it illustrates what he’s pretending to decry.

Can you clarify what you mean by “misrepresented”? It’s clearly edited for time, but the added context doesn’t change the appropriateness of his comments.

Or is there something you’re seeing that I don’t? Can you clarify what you mean?

This is the conclusion I drew.

Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theater.

This wasn’t the first movie I ever saw, but it was pretty early. I was around five, maybe younger. We saw it in a drive-in; I remember my folks had me put on my pajamas before we went so I could go straight to bed after.

It’s all private: no data—not images, not location, nothing—leaves your device. The only connection it makes to the Internet is, if it wants to show you a pic that’s not cached on your phone, the OS will request it from iCloud storage.

Let me know what you think!

Ok if I’m gonna have this account, I should occasionally post, I guess.

I’m currently working on an iOS app that lets you find photos in your library based on your current location.

I don’t see any of that BS on Mastodon. It’s nice.

And finally:

4. The people building Bluesky are the ones who built Twitter, and who gave Donald Trump his biggest, most useful platform, and who sold it to Elon Musk to cash out.

I just don’t feel like they need to get rich off our posts again.

3. This implies that there’s much more friction to find people and to get your message out.

And for me, that’s fine. Twitter has devolved to an outrage machine. Threads already seems to be overflowing with attention-seeking bots (“respond if you think this dress is too tight!).

2. The above means that you can have incredibly different experiences on different instances.

Everything from Wild West free speech absolutist Nazi hell pits to beautiful, safe, manicured gardens run by dedicated moderators. And everything in between.

1. It’s open source and decentralized, so not controlled by one entity.

This applies to the code, the servers, and the data movement.

So, more and more people I know are joining this thing, so maybe I’ll start being more active here.

However, in the meantime, I’m much more active in Mastodon, at @[email protected]

Some reasons I prefer Mastodon:
