A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Time really is a flat circle.

Also I only made that top comment to test Lemmy/Mastodon interaction. Hi from Mastodon! The fediverse is cool!

I'd not say a flat circle.

Mark Twain has this wonderful quote - "History doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes."

Yup, if you don't learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it.

Sisko : [on the image of his dead wife] I don't know if you can understand. I see her like this, every time I close my eyes. In the darkness, in the blink of an eye, I see her... like this.
Prophet : None of your past experiences helped prepare you for this consequence.
Sisko : And I have never figured out how to live without her.
Prophet : So, you choose to exist here.
[Sisko nods]
Prophet : It is not linear.
Sisko : [sobs] No. It's not linear.

How are you commenting on a thread from mastodon?

[–] bdonvr@mastodon.sdf.org 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

@luna just paste a lemmy URL into the search bar of a Mastodon client! They all run on the same backend basically. That's the magic of the Fediverse/ActivityPub

That is so, so cool, thank you!
