Not sure why you can't code the emulator in WASM and run it in a full screen browser, pulling whatever you want from wherever you want.
Perhaps someone will illuminate me.
The fixation on apps seems annoying.
I'm not naive, and I'm still having a very hard time with the moderation concepts here, and in Bluesky generally. None of the intros I've seen so far do the job.
For example, the first time we see "labeler" here is in a block diagram, and in the second use we're expected to know what that means and does.
What is a label? Is it the same thing as a "tag" in the stop-hand muted-words-and-tags description? Why are they different words, "label" and "tag"?
Is there a shared dictionary of labels, or is it unique to each labeller?
Where is the control panel for selecting labellers and labels to filter?
I accept that all this is rolling out, and that different apps and the web interface are at different points of development.
At the same time, I don't think it's usable yet.
Dominion is a business, for which the coin is the coin.
It was not realistic for people to hope they would act in righteous public interest and insist on repeated public on-air apologies. At best, we can hope going forward there is some restraint on Fox about using "Dominion" in these contexts.
Perhaps the other suits will get more on the admission front.
Also, given the predictability of a track, it's plausible to discard certain pixels at the predicted positions during transit while recording. The satellites aren't going to be in the field of view for the length of the long exposure.
Yes, this would result in more complicated software for astronomical cameras.
While there may be occlusion to Hubble from satellites, that isn't clearly related to those lower than its orbit.
The data cited don't really explain how that would come to pass, and it's rather central to the thesis.
Nor is there any discussion of how streaks damage the scientific value of the collected images. To what extent do streaks invalidate everything?
It's certainly fair to be concerned about ground-based observation, but I'm not finding the case very clearly made.
seems to be what obligation to put on sites once they are informed of problematic content.
There is reasonable dissatisfaction with "some stuff" staying around once there has been notification.
Now, of course, the problems then come into defining lines for "problematic content" and "reasonable notification", and what a reasonable response would be.
In discussions I have with people, the blanket protection 230 offers is a hard sell, and they Want To Do Something about doxxing (for example) and whatever they consider to be obvious lies.
I suspect that Something is going to be Done, and the challenge may be in finding the least problematic Something. I'm personally short of ideas, but I'd really like to see some honest exploration.
Is good one-touch ability to locate people of interest and search effectively.
This was the problem that google "solved" for the web better than AltaVista and Yahoo.
I don't think most people need algorithm produced feeds at all. Using a timeline of followed and a "trending" seems to be quite workable.
Now, there is certainly secret-sauce algorithm in search results and in picking trends, and a certain amount of secrecy is needed to avoid SEO-gamers from screwing things up.
What does seem viable to me would be having the search and trending functions be provided by third-parties that have first class access to the distributed platform. The frontend app stays the same, and you select your search and trending from those who seem to give you the results you find most useful. They can have some space for advertising. Some of these can be free-by-advertising, and some can subscribe for better ad-free results.
"Much of it only exists because the government failed to do its job."
I'm not at all sure I have any idea what any particular agency of the many governments in the vicinity should have been doing.
And Mike is kind of short on specific things he thinks monolithic Government should have been done as well.
I think we're agreed we don't want the Government much involved in regulating speech.
Based on the contents of my inboxes, I'm hard pressed to believe anybody is "better" at maintaining the integrity of their email lists or controlling their consultant/contractors.
I just looked around for streaming alternatives to cable, and didn't find any that don't carry Fox News and presumably pay for the carriage.
There don't seem to be alternatives.

No reason to victim-blame, but if we’re going to bring up his newborn at all, what’s he doing out? shopping for formula?
Some Senator should send Fox that letter, modified as suggested, just to get a catalog of the ensuing outrage.
Then use that as counterpoint whenever this shit comes up in original form.
the really partisan argument is that USF in general is unnecessary socialism and shouldn’t exist at all.
It’s hard to have a serious policy discussion when some people carry “there should be no government policy or taxation” as their starting point.
Such as when the TV broadcasters were up in arms about the ability of a TiVO or other DVR skipping commercials on playback, on the belief that that was somehow violating something -- like the social contract, maybe.
Nevertheless, even today a TiVO doesn't completely skip forward, but forces you to watch blip-verts of the things being fast-forwarded through.
why use an app?
Not sure why you can't code the emulator in WASM and run it in a full screen browser, pulling whatever you want from wherever you want. Perhaps someone will illuminate me. The fixation on apps seems annoying.
This is still pretty opaque
I'm not naive, and I'm still having a very hard time with the moderation concepts here, and in Bluesky generally. None of the intros I've seen so far do the job.

But still on the books
Unless repealed, I fully expect cops to arrest people for violating it when it suits their mood.
Naive to expect otherwise

Amenable to signal processing
Also, given the predictability of a track, it's plausible to discard certain pixels at the predicted positions during transit while recording. The satellites aren't going to be in the field of view for the length of the long exposure. Yes, this would result in more complicated software for astronomical cameras.
How to satellites below Hubble orbit interfere with it?
While there may be occlusion to Hubble from satellites, that isn't clearly related to those lower than its orbit. The data cited don't really explain how that would come to pass, and it's rather central to the thesis. Nor is there any discussion of how streaks damage the scientific value of the collected images.

The problem to address

blame taker
Whoever gets that job will be well paid for taking that blame, and safely parachute away. Hell, I'd take it and bail after a couple of years.
What should "government" have done?
"Much of it only exists because the government failed to do its job." I'm not at all sure I have any idea what any particular agency of the many governments in the vicinity should have been doing.

Oh really?

irrelevant spam
if true, you have sympathy, but this doesn't belong here.
Rats!

Takings of extensions
IIRC, Takings from the Public Domain when copyright terms were extended didn't do well as an argument in Eldred v. Ashcroft.

There’s an experiment to run

usf in general

They may have a point
If the example of "Florida Man" is of any indication, "Apple Man" may be indicative of something they don't want associated with the brans.
Reminds me of previous iterations of this
Such as when the TV broadcasters were up in arms about the ability of a TiVO or other DVR skipping commercials on playback, on the belief that that was somehow violating something -- like the social contract, maybe.
Nevertheless, even today a TiVO doesn't completely skip forward, but forces you to watch blip-verts of the things being fast-forwarded through.
