  • I don’t know if I’m weird but I’ve always been careful to park scooters in a way that doesn’t hinder others. Also never thrown a scooter in a river or kicked them over and i don’t get people who have the desire to do something like that. Not trying to pat my own back by saying this but it seems to me that it is possible to have micro-rental scooter services and treat it in a way that doesn’t make it a nuisance or danger to others. Don’t take my scooters away just because some people don’t know how to behave. Like i don’t imagine banning cars universally (though reducing them and promoting foot traffic would be nice) because some people are bad drivers, instead they get policed and fined/thrown in jail. I’m probably thinking way too naive about it but i like using scooters to go short distances.





  • I played this so much back then, started off on an m100 and eventually got a Zire71 for Christmas. I still have my dads old Tungsten T|X on the shelve, the last/newest palm©️ device i held in my hand. Man that TX had issues with the built in wifi. It has a 50:50 (or worse) chance to crash and reboot the device any time you turn the wifi on (or off or received or send data), such a shame and apparently there was a “firmware fix” but all it did was reduce the chance of it crashing, never eliminated it. Still though, palm devices are awesome and i have a lot of good memories playing some space trader at night in bed, in glorious m100 monochrome.

    I think the poll is kind of pointless. Ask a gamer to pick between discord or matrix and discord will always win. Discord has been oriented towards gamers since its inception while Matrix provides a very specific niche of communications infrastructure that in no way integrates gamers except by virtue of being a chat platform. Matrix is objectively the better protocol if you’re interested in safe, decentralised communication. Discord on the other hand has more features that gamers use. Different use cases, different expectations, different solutions 🤷‍♀️

    There’s no reason the matrix people (or some third party) couldn’t build a product that’s just like discord but bigger, better, etc, with the best of both worlds. But nobody has done it yet and it may take a long time until we get there.
