The Klingon boy band made the final cut, thankfully. However, they shot two versions of the Klingons, led by Bruce Horak as the Klingon captain. The second was opera. Ultimately, the opera take felt too close to the other singing. Luckily, the Klingon boy band won.

Correction: Uhura*

That’s a lot of words just to say “we know nothing”.

.world is *a* firefish instance. not the main firefish instance (which is .social).

so when I said, “it’s not the same person running it” - the flagship instance, if you will, is .social. many of the main people coding it are on .social (afaik). .world is just another instance.

that was i meant, if i need to clarify : the main main people coding-wise are not the same. the flagship instance (which is not .world) is not run by the same people as the mastodon flagship instance.

“the flagship instance” (if you will) of Mastodon is mastodon.social. not run by the same people who run firefish.social. they are not the same thing, run by the same people.

that’s what I was getting at. i guess I only make sense to myself.

Just to clear something up, CalcKey is now known as Firefish(.social) and that’s run by a completely different person.

Confirmed at SDCC.

First musical episode of Trek ever…ever…ever… *hears echo*

it works if you comment.

like this - now it shows up in your notifs.

there’s no actual tagging function, though.

I completely understand what was said - that is not the problem. I’m well aware.

The problem is that I misread the issue I linked to.

My comment has since been edited.

*crickets* Nope. Not wrong.

You could’ve ended that sentence with another word and it would still be accurate.

And that’s all I’m sayin’.

Just a suggestion, you might want to insert the word “allegedly” somewhere in there because Meta is refuting that assertion.

“To be clear: ‘No one on the Threads engineering team is a former Twitter employee — that’s just not a thing” - Andy Stone, Meta’s communications director

edit: yes I know that doesn’t preclude the possibility of Meta hiring former Twitter employees and not making them part of the Threads team.

Short answer: No.

tl;dr answer: There’s no tagging function in place unless you manually tag them using markdown, and that still wouldn’t notify them. That would be a bandaid solution at best.

I still use it with a couple of friends on a private server.

Who’s really “being a shit” here? I see nobody else being hostile but you.

Nobody else is picking apart silly things like wording and terminology and being hostile and confrontational. Just you.

What’s the matter, did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning and decide to take it out on the world?

Can we please leave this kind of toxic confrontational behaviour on the dead bird site and reddit where it belongs? We don’t need it here.

“loginwalled” then. We know what he means.

There are no gymnastics necessary since he’s not “our” Kirk. He’s an alternate timeline Kirk. The only time we see the “real” Kirk (Lt. Kirk) is at the end of this episode where La’an space-Facetimes him.

It would appear so.

It’s easy to tell this is a copy/paste job (due to the repeated text from the subject pasted into the body) so I have to wonder if this is a bot.

Lol. “I have no interest in your response, I will not be responding” is like shoving your fingers in your ears and yelling “La la la, I can’t hear you”.

So mature. Do you do this with everyone you disagree with or am I special?

Btw none of this “evidence” is evidence of anything (I already confirmed there was a meeting with an NDA, thanks for the evidence that supports what I just said!). The Medium link is an opinion and what’s the cartoon supposed to be evidence of? Someone with an opinion who knows how to draw? How is a cartoon evidence of anything?

So again, you’re believing rumour and gossip. You linked to blogs and opinions and call them sources. I linked to actual news articles (for the most part - you know, actual news reporting and actual quotes from sources) and then you got upset because I corrected you with actual facts of what is happening (not what someone thinks happened). You can provide all the links you want to every editorial/opinion you like but that is not proof. That is proof someone has an opinion. Opinions aren’t backed up by anything, therefore they are not “proof”. Anyone can scream “oh noes, the sky is falling” - that does not prove the sky is falling. I’m talking about facts.

You’ve been able to prove one thing, though - you’ll believe anything as long as it’s written and you can’t ever be wrong. Gotcha.

I think we’re done here. Have yourself a lovely day.

This is all ridiculous semantic arguments. Yes, you did say there was a deal. Now you’re trying to walk it back.

The general consensus is that this was going to be a monetary offer to allow Instagram to further colonize the Fediverse by purchasing one of the larger servers.

Firstly, the last time I checked, “a monetary offer” is what person might otherwise call a deal. If you propose to give me money for something, that is a deal. And as I stated multiple times with proof, no such deal was made. You really don’t like being wrong, do you?

Instagram and Facebook are owned by Meta. Meta is the controlling entity (Meta owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, among other things). Whatever you choose to call it, Instagram or Meta, it is the same company. Potato, po-tah-to. They are in essence the same thing. But let’s be factual: It was Meta, not Instagram who approached those admins and again your information is wrong. this article specifically says Meta, so this does this, and this, and this too

What you “heard” was rumours and fear-mongering. You have not offered one single solitary shred of proof. I have offered several to the contrary.
