"The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at and repair."

The project's "roadmap" is a masterclass in using many words to say nothing at all. One of the steps includes the to-do item "Technological breakthrough".

Le sigh.
Ever feel like you should feel bad about something?
The downside of moral relativism is the realization none of us are evil.
Then ppl who are cool to u hurt others who in turn ply u with home cooking and booty snaps and the angel & devil on your shoulders are looking at each other like, "this shit is above my pay grade"
All the while shit u haven't felt in ages doesn't simplify things. Feel like a damn hi school kid again, stupidity and all.

fedi meta, welcome
It's great to see renewed interest in federated social networking with everything that's going on. We're weird, but we've got filters for that; the best in the business. Join an instance or spin up your own if you've got the money.
What instance you join depends on what you're looking for.
If you're looking for reach, you should join through Pleroma.
If you're looking for predictability, join Mastodon.
If you like the bleeding edge, join Misskey.
If you're into a Facebook like layout, join Friendica.
Even though we don't support sign ups, we do have links to all of these instances' project pages where you can find sign up info.
Won't you be my neighbor?

Inside: How Big Pharma bribed docs to overprescribe opioids; and more!

Think I may have broken my arm and dislocated my shoulder sleepwalking
Gives me pause how concerns over seeking narcotics and shirking household responsibilities are preventing me from seeking medical attention
So absurd. I don't care enough to make excuses, could find stronger street drugs w/less scrutiny/time/effort for cheaper
Then the ER gives u the "frequent flyer" treatment despite multiple spinal fractures & u almost lose ur home over "laziness."
