  • My take on deep dish.

    I spent 36 hours in Chicago, wonderful city, amazing culinary opportunities. I ate 5 deep dish pizzas in that time, pequads, dinos, Uno’s, … Can’t remember the other two… Each of them were unique, offered a different style, pequads was my favorite but I didn’t appreciate the wait to have it brought out (I’m used to waiting for a deep dish, but man that was a wait, excellent cheesey burn on the outside of the crust). Old Chicago Pizza in Petaluma California is better than any deep dish that I had in Chicago. No disrespect to Chicago, but if you find yourself just north of San Francisco it’s worth a visit to the old brothel that currently has one of the best pizza experiences on the planet.

    I may have overloaded myself on deep dish pizza, it may have been my palette appreciating something different, but “the publican” was the best meal I had in Chicago. I have even ordered their mail order brunch a couple times, it has yet to disappoint.

    I don’t dislike Stewart’s take on it though XD



  • If meta wants to data farm lemmy, what’s to stop them from hosting a 1 user instance, being federated with lemmy, and…? Profit?

    I’m not worried about information going that way, it’s an open source deal, information is already going that way.

    As for getting more content from another instance? I’m not against it, as long as it’s regulated, and at risk of defederation if it gets out of hand


  • It’s silly to think they can’t scrape data from where they are though.

    What’s to stop them from starting a tiny instance, getting all the data, and just keeping quiet about it?

    The threads people are already happy to have given up that data, and if meta becomes a problem, defederate from it, or find an instance that isn’t federated with meta threads.


  • I don’t care either way, but I hope they’d be welcome as long as they kept their instance cleaned of the kind of things other instances have been defederated for.

    If meta wants all the data there are plenty of other ways to get it, pretending the fediverse is an impenetrable shield is silly. And maybe more people will learn about the fediverse in this way.
