OMG, I hate to sling mud here, but how come like every other Mastodon app posts and gets notifications faster than Tweesecake? #Slowness

From a #commercial aspect, we want the #government 🏢 to #declare what the #standards are and then get out of the way.

What you want to avoid is #regulation that locks in a specific set of technologies 🧰 as opposed to expectations for #performances of behavior.

If #policy questions “linger” too long, investors will be scared off, stymying* the company’s growth.

The present “#piecemeal, fragmented licensing approach” needs to be #streamlined. Technology’s #speed and regulation’s #slowness causes friction https://aerospace.csis.org/the-private-sectors-assessment-of-u-s-space-policy-and-law

There is a secret bond between slowness and memory, between speed and forgetting. Consider this ... : a man is walking down the street. [H]e tries to recall something, but the recollection escapes him. Automatically, he slows down. Meanwhile, a person who wants to forget a disagreeable incident he has just lived through starts unconsciously to speed up his pace, as if he were trying to distance himself from a thing still too close to him in time. #MilanKundera #memory #slowness #speed #quotes

The reason for my externally asserted #slowness lies within ten years of bullshit #manipulation instead of direct help by science.

Pestering me with worthless pick up bullshit & computer nerd idiots does not have any merit.

Torturing me because your Idiot manipulation did not work & was based on false projections is not the solution & cannot be condoned in any possible way.

The only #solution is an official apology + #compensation by royalty, sponsors and politicians.

You did me wrong.

#Conform to #conformity like the #birds conform to the flows of the #wind.
Make haste in plenty #slowness all the while coming on by the #garden seat.
Do you #think the #hawthorn is in #bloom yet?
Oh, it must be the #light of the #night in #midday.

The latest blog in our #CollectingRealUtopias series is embracing winter and darkness with a celebration of rest and #slowness.

Speaking to our addiction to #productivity, to #usefulness, about how this feeds #capitalism, colonial violence, environmental destruction and personal burnouts, Malaika Cunningham argues that rest and slowness might actually be the most important act of resistance we can enact.

#Potluck #Rest #Slowness #Toasts #Art #Artist #PerformanceArt #CreativeWriting #CriticalWriting

A huge #Twitter account joined my #instance last night. Please excuse the #slowness of my replies and posts over the next few days.

In the meantime, please

• #donate money to your own #instances for server costs

• set your old posts to #delete on a routine #schedule to clear #server space

• write short #visual #descriptions for the #sight-impaired on all of your images. (Mastodon has an #edit button!)

I hope your day is filled with unexpected delights! — CM :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

"In the arts – where freelance precarity further ingrains ‘time = money’ – busyness is worn as a badge of honour, but also as a form of survival"

Due to excruciatingly #slowness of this #server I'm limited to a few #post a day. ☹️

This appears to be the new Mastodon reality. Where can I donate and spread the word about the same? 😁 🤑

It seems to me that more and more people today are losing the ability to be in the moment. Yet the very mundane boredom and #slowness contain such a wealth of insights.
