Memmy has been a great fill-in, as has Lemmios. Memmy is probably a little further along, but both are definitely "Apollo-inspired" and both have been nice to use. Still some features missing that I have to come to the site for.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Couldn't agree more! This is why the internet needs to stay as it is: anonymous, uncensored and open to all. At this point a free and open internet is an essential part of liberty.

Couldn’t agree more with this. I just use a Roku set top box with all my TVs and never even connect the TVs to the internet.

I'll bet they wrote that proposal expecting to be rejected for any kind of grant and then were laughing all the way to the laboratory after hearing it was granted.

haha, too right! I hadn't even thought of that :P

They were talking about this years ago and I haven't heard anything on it in a while. Is it still even a project they're working on? Also, what would be the environmental problems with this? I remember reading at one point about submarine power cables potentially causing issues with marine animals because of EMF, but I don't think that was any kind of conclusive study.

The one I always find funny is tech CEOs or ads out there that use the term "quantum leap" to describe an improvement. In reality, a quantum leap is just when an electron changes orbitals -- one of the smallest movements a piece of matter can make. In my mind, a device being described as a "quantum leap" ahead of it's predecessor sounds like it's barely changed at all. Even better is the state is often temporary as electrons jump up an orbital when absorbing energy and then will jump back down when they release it. All in all, a terrible marketing term.

Almost every part of the article was as entertaining as it was interesting, haha! Not only did they spend months tickling rats, but they actually turned up some new information on how the brain works in the process.

It's the 5th most hit site globally, it's going nowhere.

Currently chatting with the other mods about this and while we don't want the community to be overrun by Elon, the articles are some of the most upvoted in the past few days. It seems, that people do want to hear about what's going on but not at a rate that drowns out other content. We've been careful to prune out duplicates to keep the flow down, but the volume of Elon posts and Twitter / X is definitely... a lot. I do see how some find it annoying so we're keeping an eye on the situation, but I do agree it does meet the criteria of being both news and tech related. I assume that he'll eventually run out of Twitter pieces to break, right :P

Please do keep an open line of communication with us and all replies, feedback and opinions are always welcome! Cheers!

Rumble is free to upload videos to. I haven't uploaded to Vimeo in a while, so I'm not as sure on that one. I believe the paid tiers for Rumble are just for commercial accounts to use to display videos with no ads and they also unlock streaming.
