This Earth, only home i will ever have had, isn’t truly mine. No, i’m just a passerby here … it might yours if you don’t feel how weird, how wrong it is.

    42 Monthly Active Users … that’s the final answer to life, the universe and a verything 😋
    … i am surprised, i expected the figures to be in the thousands 🤣

    Edit :

    Seriously now, new standard :

    . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator
    .
    The 22nd General Conference on Weights and Measures[27] declared in 2003, “The symbol for the decimal marker shall be either the point on the line or the comma on the line.” It further reaffirmed,[27]

    Numbers may be divided in groups of three in order to facilitate reading; neither dots nor commas are ever inserted in the spaces between groups

    That is, “1 000 000 000” is preferred over “1,000,000,000” or “1.000.000.000”.

    spoiler The Lesser Key of Solomon

    … also known by its Latin title Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis[1] or simply the Lemegeton, is an anonymously authored grimoire on sorcery, mysticism, and magic. It was compiled in the mid-17th century from materials several centuries older.[2][3] It is divided into five books: the Ars Goetia, Ars Theurgia-Goetia, Ars Paulina, Ars Almadel, and Ars Notoria.[2] It is based on the Testament of Solomon and the ring mentioned within it that he used to seal demons.

    thanks, but still, what the fuck that’s doing in that computer ?

    Out of the loop ? Let me explain :

    The text in the image is a computer command that can run on Unix Linux computers and it removes an important part of the operating system that is called “lib”.

    After running this successfully, part of the operating system would have to be reinstalled.

    The joke is that “lib” can also mean liberal which is one of the denomination for Democratic party members in the USA.

    That (joke) would be an attack on this group by the saying : “owning the liberals”.

    No I was not sarcastic. So now i am trying to read your paper and i think that it is above my knowledge level.

    As a layman i had the intuition that instead of having two accounts as i proposed for voting and commenting which was implemented by @rimu, we might have had something like blockchain or filecoin or some coin that would represent voting power and that would be based on our commenting value… so that coin would have been an intermediary to make voting anonymous.

    Finally i know enough about science that i know that i don’t know much.

    Edit : after a rapid overview of the article i would say that this method :
    “Blind Signature-Based e-Voting”
    would be most appropriate to our social media voting and i noticed the work they have done is more targeting national elections where the outcome is much more important.

    @[email protected] did great on my simple idea and this is very nice to know. He did not implement his other idea of having a pool of available robots that would vote one time each for each one vote of each one user(s) … also I thought it might be implemented in the frontend but he did implement it in the backend.

    i did not say before but i was also thinking about complex mechanisms involving some kind of coin that would represent voting power that could be spent when voting or accumulated maybe with some loss of value with time … but then i read about the many research paper that were published about such things … in conclusion i believe we will see many other iterations of such social media.

    thanks for the feedback 😌
