Announcement post

Anyone remember that scanner that was going around calling itself smat-app? If I could find a post about it I would quote it but hopefully somebody knows what I mean.
Anyways, they had a newsletter that I signed up for to see what would come next, and it's interesting.
Quoted below: Introducing Open Measures: A commitment to the open-source intelligence community (OSINT) in the fight against disinformation and online extremism.Their dashboard is live, but it appears the fediverse results aren't ready yet.

Get well soon @dushman@den.raccoon.quest :blobraccoon:

A real authentic left-leaning movement would prioritize building on mars before Elon gets to it. Then they can liberate the rest of humanity by shooting down the SpaceX PlanetPrison™️ Satelites with space dust.

Needed to login to Element X

Setup the sliding sync proxy for matrix.
Not sure what makes ElementX better than element at this stage. Glad to have it out of the way though!

Who wants to chat?

What are some great peertube channels on instances that actually federate?

I'll add @privacy__tech_tips@tube.tchncs.de which does really good coverage and tips.

Cheeky answer: word mute the user's pubkey (the long username)
Otherwise I'd ask @alex@gleasonator.com

People are wrong about Daylight Savings time.
Every time you'll get dozens of articles saying Is it time to get rid of daylight savings? as if it's a bad thing.
The truth is we're not doing it enough.

The real reason everyone is confused is because we took a half step. The world is a sphere, not a flat plane. Because we're missing an entire dimension of detail, we're only doing half the daylight savings required.

What do I mean by this?
You see, we currently save daylight by longitude, but if we want a truly accurate amount of daylight savings we will also require time dilation by latitude. So the further you get from the equator the more we have to slow the clocks down to ensure everyone actually receives their full day in the sun. This is because each day and night is longer the closer you get to the north or self pole.

This is the essential factor missing from a physically accurate daylight savings model.

Just a flair of melodrama
