If snow fall on the mountains is reducing so much, and this snow acted as a water reservoir formed in Winter to get through the warmer, dry summers, then we should start creating huge water reservoirs on top of mountains; pumping the water up there when it rains.

@slashdot I feel like this is a bit of a common pattern? Company builds an awesome product, makes it free for a lot of users, then create additional features and paid plans, makes a tonne of money. But then later decide they need to make more money, so focus on converting the free users to paid users. Hmmm 🤔 Surely this can't be the only viable business model? 🤔

Obligatory Twtxt post: I love how I can simply use a terminal window and some very basic tools (echo, scp, ssh) to publish thoughts, as they pop up, onto the Internet in a structured way, that can be found and perhaps even appreciated.

Wondering that part of the charm and attraction of Christmas markets could come from a common nostalgia towards every day street markets in towns and a longing for more outside social life during the cold, clammy Winter days.

@movq @prologic Oh nice! It continued a bit, too. But it didn't remain on the ground. I didn't leave the house, but I reckon I'll enjoy it tomorrow. Currently it's raining, like most of the day.

Interesting thing happening over on Xitter. Apparently some of the women in tech accounts are being exposed as being run by men that hire women to pose for images/videos. They would be invited to tech conferences but would always drop out last minute.

Makes me wonder if maybe there is need for a sort of verifiable web of trust is needed where influencers can be proven as authentic by others. This will only get worse as AI generative content gets pushed into our feeds.

@prologic I always aggressively jump over this stupid shit and never listen to it. That means I might miss some actual good stuff right after the garbage they advertise. But I'm not willing to seek back.

It need to be a proper link to the domain. And mention is linking to a profile page on the pod, so it doesn't validate.

@darch But this is what I'm confused about. Why would my Twt contains a reference to `http://darch.dk/social` instead of `http://darch.dk/twtxt.txt` -- which the later is what I `@-mentioned`? 🤔

Yarns does not generate a link back to the site that is being mentioned (eg. `<a href="http://darch.dk/social">look here</a>`) which is needed for validating that it is indeed a real webmention, ant not just spam. Try rereading the specs😉

I'm willing to get that Google™ is losing ad revenue from sponsored advertising and sponsors of Youtubers.

See, even a video I was just watching on Youtube just now, the guy said:

> THanks for Surf Shark for sponsoring this video, it keeps the content free.

So that basically tells me that Google™ advertising on Youtube™ is utter bullshit. I have a funny feeling they're (Google™'s) crack-down on ad-blocker is just an internal reaction to a losing battle with their ad revenue streams in the declins from their ad business.

----

As an aside @movq and I were yarning about this before... The reason this form of advertising works so well is "brand awareness". There's some interesting content, and you don't mind that the guy or gal is sponsored by some company and they happen to make mention of it and even go into a special part of their video (_without being annoying about it_). You don't even fast forward or anything because you already like their voice, and they're not being completely obnoxious about what they're promoting, and what they're promoting isn't complete garbage, malware or worse.

@darch I needn an example of where this breaks down I think. Do you happen to have one? 🤔 By all rights, looking at the code paths, the issue raised really doesn't make sense to me. The Source is the Twt permalink on the source pod that contains an `@-mention` of the target's Twtxt feed. So that should validate just fine hmm 🤔
