@djwfyi I feel similarly, and ended up dedicating Vivaldi to ONLY email! ha
@djwfyi After trying Geary, Thunderbird, and Evolution, I finally discovered that Vivaldi (the browser) has an excellent, fast, and easy to use built-in email system.
@jstanley0 Oooh, I like this strategy. Thank you!
How do you build your list of interesting people to follow on Mastodon? When I visit "Federated" is see so many messages flicker past that it's basically useless. When I go to "Local" I only see mastodon.social posts, which presumably do not include all of the people on Mastodon that I might find interesting?

Some people look at the universe and conclude there is no meaning, because it does not care. I look at Earth and see an evolving Mother and evolving God caring, hewn from rock and flesh and mind.

"God sleeps in the minerals, awakens in plants, walks in animals, and thinks in [humankind]." --Arthur Young

We are earthseed. We are the center of meaning making. Our existence hints at the rise of a listening society, of wisdom systems, and ultimately--millennia hence--of a caring universe.

@aeva It would help, but I think I understood! Would this be for points in space (octree) or for volumes (bvh)?
If you are leaving Twitter, do not deactivate your account. Instead, please set it to private. (If you deactivate it, someone else may be able to claim it in future, and identity squatters are a problem no-one needs.)
All of the lost data and bug squashing today is absolutely worth it if Relm gives you a chance to feel closer to your people or helps you organize space for thinking and gathering online.
Thinking about the potential harm SBF has done to Effective Altruism (TM). If Utilitarianism were a trilogy, this chapter (11?) must be part of the second volume: "Virtue Ethics Strikes Back".

I tried a few Chrome extensions that give a pleasant "new tab" experience. My favorite is Bonjourr--beautiful, simple, and doesn't require handing over the power to see everything I do in my browser:
