  • No idea. I can see not up voting it. I think it’s a bit of a non-story. Country looks to maybe join a group containing it’s some of it large trading partners. This group might or might not do something on the future. Only interesting bit is it’s the BRICS.

    But a down vote just feels unnecessary. The story is factual. The source is fine. It might be relevant to someone.









  • Be careful with that thinking. That way can lead to complacency. Big tech loves embrace, extend, extinguish

    I could see a corp like Microsoft or Google or someone else seeing long term value in federated services. They could create a service utilizing the technology and spread it to their user base. Slowly add in some special sauce to their own version of it to attract more people to their part of it. Then break compatibility with everything else to stop someone from stealing users back.


  • Meh. Lawyers represent unsavory clients all the time. I think Trump’s treatment of his lawyers is the issue for most. Using them as political spokespersons and his reputation of not paying.

    My guess is it’ll go like this:

    Trump: Judge, I can’t find a lawyer with the skills to represent me.

    Judge: Give me the list of people you tried to get to represent you.

    The judge looks over the list see someone they knows.

    Judge: Mr. X is appointed to Trump’s lawyer team and will be paid 1.2 x [standard rate]. Trump will put Y amount into escrow to ensure payment.

    Add some rules about what exactly the appointed lawyer will do and done. Trump can’t argue for improper representation later.



  • I consider myself NB transfem. I prefer transfem because, to me at least, it invokes a feeling of movement towards feminity as opposed to into feminity.

    For a community name I’m honestly not sure which one would be better. I think discoverability and inclusivity should be the deciding factors. MtF has the lineage from past communities and transfem is more inclusive.
