I've been thinking; what could be an alternative name for Fediverse ?
Control? Loved that game!
the thunder song distorts you happiness comes push the fingers through the surface into the wet you're a copy of a copy of a copy white pearl with the red in the eye leave your insides by the door
(those are quotes from Control depicted on the second post)
What really freaked me out about those voices was that they were in german when i played, even though i had the game language set to english, and everything else was in english. I think the game might look to the OS language settings
Some audio understandable without headphones
You are a worm through time.
The thunder song distorts you.
Happiness comes.
White pearls, but yellow and red in the eye.
Through a mirror, inverted is made right.
Leave your insides by the door.
Push the fingers through the surface into the wet.
You’ve always been the new you.
You want this to be true.
We stand around you while you dream.
You can almost hear our words but you forget.
This happens more and more now.
You gave us the permission in your regulations.
We wait in the stains.
The word that describes this is redacted.
Repeat the word.
The name of the sound.
It resonates in your house.
After the song, time for applause.
We build you till nothing remains.
The egg cracks and the truth will emerge out of you.
You are home.
You remind us of home.
You’ve taken your boss with your boss with you.
All hair must be eaten.
Under the conceptual reality behind this reality you must want these waves to drag you away.
After the song, time for applause.
This cliché is death out of time, breaking the first the second the third the fourth wall, the fifth wall, floor; no floor: you fall!
How do you say “insane”?
Hurts to be happy.
An earworm is a tune you can’t stop humming in a dream: “baby baby baby yeah”.
Just plastic.
So, safe and nothing to worry about.
Ha ha, funny.
The last egg breaks now.
The hole in your room is a hole in you.
You came and we let you in through the hole in you.
You have always been here, the only child.
A copy of a copy of a copy.
Orange peel.
The picture is you holding the picture.
When you hear this you will know you’re in new you.
You want to listen.
You want to dream.
You want to smile.
You want to hurt.
You don’t want to be.
"The egg cracks and the truth will emerge out of you." 🏳️⚧️
The United States government has a monopoly on the concept of a federation.
Australia, Germany, Canada, Russia, India, Brazil, and a bunch more countries are gonna disagree with you there.
Oh, and Gene Roddenberry.
I know, but a lot of the time, when people see the fed in fediverse, they assume its a reference to the U.S government.
Maybe in your country in mine it means “fat”
Well, it doesn't in my country either, just online
Control was so good, and she's the only fed I trust
Honestly with every federal agency having its own janky website that acts as a 'portal' to a bunch of other random websites... the first time I heard of the fediverse without any context, my guess was that it was some kind of master site that linked all of them together. Which would be entirely useless, but that's never stopped the feds before.
I call it lemmy
Lemmy and other link aggregators are just a (small) part of the fediverse, though.
Lemmy ⊂ Threadiverse ⊂ Fediverse
I struggle to explain Lemmy or the fediverse simplicity for the unfamiliar
"You've heard about Twitter and Reddit, right? Imagine if you could read, upvote, and comment on Reddit posts from Twitter directly, without a Reddit account. Or the other way around. This is kind of what Fediverse is. Also most of it is run and managed by volunteers and non-profits, like Wikipedia, so it doesn't try to spy on you or show you ads."
I just say it's like email but for forums. You can message someone on outlook with your Gmail account, now imagine if you could see and comment on reddit posts while you're on Twitter and vice versa
Part of why we put this together is so that I could send it to people when I struggle to explain 😅
