Always wanted to test out #hackintosh and since a lot of people always told me how good HP ENVY Notebooks are for installing macOS on it, I thought why not? 🤷♀️
I realise it's not #caturday but I feel it's important to remind you to keep your kittens fully charged.

@elk @mmasnick @feditips @ivory @icecubesapp @tootapp Some instance admin will do something stupid or nuanced or controversial and someone in one of the other places will use it to make a big fcking huballoooooo about how Mastodon is terrible, and look, it's just like the Bad Place™️ "oh my god" you are subject to the whims of a person, but it's just some person in another country, it's not even Elon Musk! Ok, true, perhaps, but guess what's crazy awesome? You can stay here but move. 🤯
"Some of Twitter’s famed ecosystem is migrating over to the fediverse, and the number of third-party apps is growing fast. For example, Tusker promises to customize your timeline and supports both Pixelfed and Mastodon. For some power users, the app Tweetbot “was Twitter,” but after Twitter killed third-party apps the Tweetbot developers launched an app called Ivory for Mastodon... If those are not to your liking you can turn to Ice Cubes, Woolly, Mona, or Mammoth."
"What is the fediverse Twitter?
As I mentioned earlier, Mastodon is the fediverse answer to Twitter... overall it works the same way. News, hashtags, and feeds are more useful and relevant. The feed is just chronological rather than some manipulation of posts and additional stuff you wish Twitter would not show you."
"Why are Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram bad?
People have raised a number of issues with Facebook such as the manipulation of users and the ubiquity of annoying ads and fake news. While one person’s content moderation is another’s censorship, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram have seemed to utterly fail at moderating content in a way acceptable to anyone. In many cases they have seemed to encourage misinformation, fake news, and even hate speech in order to drive “engagement.”

Is having a woman on the Homeland Security Committee calling for a break up of the country just nuts? Is she that dense she doesn’t even realise what the committee even stands for? This is the best the GOP can do folks. #MarjorieTraitorGreene
It is one thing for Speaker Kevin #McCarthy to fully release the Jan. 6 footage.
But releasing the footage EXCLUSIVELY to a Jan. 6 denier like #TuckerCarlson? That is as insane as appointing Marjorie Taylor Greene to the Homeland Security Committee.
We will have crossed the Rubicon with #GenerativeAI when one can ask a particular system to generate a new programming language to interface with an #AI construct and it does not return with examples sourced from different languages. It does a reasonable job of approximating what passes for a new language. But, it remains a pattern generator.
