I'm in a mostly empty Thai restaurant. The food is great and the staff is blasting Eminem.

A forums just a forum. They're different at different sizes, and asking the whole world to post in the same one was probably a bad idea.

When I hear there's a new social network

More records to listen to is a good reason to learn any language:

I'm trying to learn Russian, and I'm finding that while flashcard and vocab services like duolingo and memrise are good, it's harder to find instruction on grammar and concepts. Do any of you have any resources you like, for that or other languages?

Found a laundromat that does same day pickup for a decent price. Only problem is that they only give change in nickels.

Facebook yes, twitter no, I just explained mastodon to my wife and I think that means I'm not getting laid tonight.

hey since people are assessing this site's success or failure in comparison to Facebook has Mastodon gotten you laid yet?

Will RT responses unless you ask otherwise and tabulate

Does anyone on here have a good implementation of a rest client in objective c? I'd like to copy patterns from a known good one.

I've heard that some English-speakers are complaining, but I love the multilingual Federated feed. It's a big planet, peeps.

Go nuts while the service is new, it's a party and everyone's just following everyone. Just talk about stuff that's more interesting than social networks.

Pretty good, except for trashing the Disney 12 rules of animations. What the hell is it about medium posts that makes people think they can unwind the fundaments of their field with a dang blog post?

I make software for a living but can't use basic social software without tripping over the carpet and planting my face in the punchbowl.

How do you follow people on the other mastodons or is this like a prison island?

Hey everyone I bet open source social media is really going to take off this year.
