Read Nick Land's #Meltdown if you want to see your AI future.

How many nostr relays do you use?

Which ones and why?

This is my first draft of an artist's rendition of, a next-gen, plasma-facing component inside of a #fusion reactor.

This is a crosscut view of the lower diverter inside the tokamak with some digital and binary elements to represent modeling and simulation. The composition is inspired by architectural photography and the SpaceX Starship.

Things I love about #Urbit:

1. Deterministic computing

2. Human-readable and finite DNSDNS names

3. Server-to-server network architecture

4. (The future) possibility of networked apps that will last generations without the need for a dev team to update them

5. Portable VM overlay OS

6. The people 🀝

Things I hate about #Urbit:

1. The tools yo run Urbit. It breaks literally every month on average (I self-host multiple planets and a star on Proxmox VMs, and everything works great except GroundSeg. It's ridiculously unreliable.)

2. No serious Bitcoin/Lightning/Cashu integrations at all. Bitcoin is the only crypto that matters.

3. WAY too much $h!t coin shilling.

4. Completely VC-controlled Arvo core.

5. Based on Ethereum NFTs for the DNS.

6. Fake signal/grifting from many Urbit-affiliated cultural and tech influencers (Blimp, Holium, Milady, UqBar, etc.).

7. "Free planet hosting!" This completely destroyed the community incentives. It was predictable, and I talked about it as often as I could

I have been using Urbit since before OS1. I was sending chat messages through the terminal. I have gone through Hoon school three times. I own a star ( ~lanlyd).

The people using Urbit are brilliant and amazingly talented, but the focus has gotten off somewhere over the past few years, and the ship needs to be set straight.

I'm so happy to see Yarvin returning to #Urbit. He is desperately needed. The project needs to grow up and focus.

I love Urbit as a P2P computing platform and hate Urbit as a VC "crypto" next big opportunity.

I will continue to watch the space intensely, drop into groups now and then, and when Urbit gets its priorities straight, I may continue to contribute to that ecosystem once again.

I have noticed recently that my #amethyst feed seems to always be about 15 - 24 hours behind and syncs very slowly. The latest notes are getting harder to recieve in real time. Other clients don't seem to have this issue.

some people are too big to stand.

I thought I would post some of my #studioart in this community feed. I live in the east Tennessee area and I have always loved the Hudson River School style.
