Beethoven’s Ode to Joy Played With 167 Theremins Placed Inside Matryoshka Dolls in Japan
Beethoven’s Ode to Joy Played With 167 Theremins Placed Inside Matryoshka Dolls in Japan
A decade ago, in Tokyo, 167 musicians performed a Beethoven classic with the 'Matryomin,' a new-fangled instrument that lodges a theremin inside a matryoshka. A matryoshka, of course, is one of those Russian nested dolls where you find wooden dolls of decreasing size placed one inside the other.
Clayton DeweyI just donated to #Thunderbird because a) I use it every day as my email client to stay partially out of the clutches of Google
and b) the donation screen they showed when I logged in had a really cute drawing of a Thunderbird
and
c) I appreciate the revitalization that is happening with the project, which is in large part because of donations from regular people like myself

Matt Blaze@SteveBellovin When the AI takes over we’ll have to organize by exchanging messages via graffiti in places with no Internet. Extending wireless coverage to the subway is something we will come to regret.
Oblomov@mattblaze OK but seriously vi is the wishy-washiest of options. Either go full hardcore with ed or go with vim.
Lauren WeinsteinIt is EXTREMELY URGENT that government agencies, emergency groups, and others who have over time become dependent on #Twitter to disseminate important announcements to the public, now move quickly to prepare alternative methods (which they really should have already).
It is clear that Musk's behavior is decimating Twitter as a reliable platform for reaching the public without interference, and since Musk now says he will let all hate speech and disinformation that is "not illegal or spam" be propagated on Twitter, even from previously suspended accounts, Twitter will now rapidly become of zero value as a source of trustworthy information on any topics.
DO NOT DELAY!
