Opinion - The problem with Bluesky: It won’t broaden our horizons: In the wake of Donald Trump’s election win, the social-media platform has enjoyed a surge of new users looking for an alternative to Elon Musk’s X. But will it be useful, if it just creates an echo chamber for the left?

Top shelf cat
A closeup of Frankie cat sitting on the top shelf of the linen cupboard. He has tabby stripes on his cheeks and forehead, a Christmas tree shaped splotch on his nose and the rest of his front is white. He's looking down at the camera with interest, but he's sitting in a relaxed manner, with his hind feet out to his right. He loves being up high and he loves when he's being looked at, so he's a very happy little guy right now. #catsOfBluesky

Casual Friday
A well fed tabby cat sitting in a big white armchair. His fluffy belly is exposed and he has one hind leg casually resting on the armrest. He’s looking at the camera, calm and relaxed. #CatsOfBluesky

But Threads still won't let people make the "following" feed their default. And there's nothing anybody in Threads management can do to solve my problem of Threads being yet another Meta platform when *I don't care to give Meta any more leverage over my online life.*

She often thought about him, and the way he wrapped his arms around her when she shivered from the cold. She never knew if the goosebumps were the weather or his touch.

Two cats sitting side by side in a window, looking out with rapt attention. In front is tabby cat Joe, sitting on a burgundy piano stool. Behind him on the windowsill is Frankie, with tabby stripes on his cheeks and forehead and a white front. Outside the window you can see a car driving by in rainy weather and bare trees. #CatsOfBluesky

Treasure Map on how to disable X #Grok #AI 🤖 - training on your user data :)

Recently they quietly added the data sharing opt-out to the settings menu

- only "To continuously improve your experience..." of course 😋

Doing this, they are in good "COMPANY" with the likes of #Meta.

Has DeSantis called a special election yet?

Gaetz’s letter of resignation said he didn’t “intend” to take the oath of office for the next Congress, even though he’s been re-elected. What are his “intentions” now?

(doing this again cuz I forgot Alt text:)

Ok, I made some updates to Earth/ESD today, based on feedback - Note that I literally haven't even checked this in yet, so it's not on Tribble right now. It will be there in some future build . . . 1/?
A full view of our update Earth Spacedock Station in Star Trek Online. The station is a kind of grey mushroom shape, with lots of small windows, glows, and spikey towers on the tops and bottoms. There are 5 arms that connect the main structure to smaller saucer shapes. The station is backlit by the sun coming from the left.
