looking at getting back into #streaming, anyone got advice for a #federated #streamingplatform for #smallstreamers?

Born in 1914, Hedy Lamarr was a famous American actress who pioneered the technology that would lead to WiFi, GPS, cell phones & Bluetooth communication.

Lamarr was brilliant. Among many fascinating inventions, she developed a new communication system with composer George Antheil that used “frequency hopping” among radio waves.

Once called the “most beautiful woman in the world," Lamarr is now remembered as "the mother of Wi-Fi."

Thank This World War II-Era Film Star for Your Wi-Fi

As the National Portrait Gallery acquires a film poster of Hedy Lamarr, it’s worth reflecting on her double life as an actress and a pioneering inventor

hello fediverse! i’m back from my brief #psychiatric vacation, not self-imposed.

gotta love when “conspiracy theories that are probably true” (aka facts) makes your loved ones think you’re crazy.

and then having more than half of them leave….

thank god for federated social thought!!

who woulda thought that it wouldn’t even be a fincance bro or musker, it would literally just be that an actual, real guy accidentally found the answer. i’m just a dood. screaming into the void apparently

a literal 26 year old marketing guy just found #agi. and honestly, i still don’t know what to do with that information LOL
i’m really hoping this is one of the first organically viral mastodon posts that comes from no one pushing an agenda at all. the problem isn’t that everyone’s angry. the problem is that literally everyone knows exactly what they need to say, but the rich have stripped away the ability for us to say it. and that’s what’s so dangerous.
this all started when #congress decided to make the rest of the year a day, and goddamn has it felt like it.
i think the thing that people don’t realize in my life is how much of my stress is coming from realizing how #comformist i was being for the sake of being #comfortable in a #society that wasn’t built for me. it’s the fact that i know this wouldn’t have happened if more people like me spoke louder, but we just keep getting silenced by the people in our lives over and over again because they think we’re #crazy
not me feeling like i should be shopping at #hobbylobby because #target pulled back all of their #dei stances. crazy that i feel more comfortable keeping my money in the local economy supporting people who support fascism just so i dont have to give a giant liberal corporation my profits. for those that don’t get it, most hobby lobbies are franchised owned by a member of your community, where as target is a corporation owned by billionaires🤠 unfortunately, concern for #fascism beats #lgbtq rn🫠
