Hence my desire for an intuitive one.

IMO, Section 230 is too relaxed for large scale social media, but not relaxed enough for some other applications. It basically allowed big tech to mod the public square like modding a game, for it to be much larger, to move people around into biased groups, and to keep a record of all conversations, and train autocomplete bots on them..

I do not want more restrictions on existing apps. My point was that I wanted every local community to have their own online forum that's only accessible locally (through a RSA cert that rotates monthly, perhaps). They can even build minigames and cute events for themselves, and that would boost local morals and economy.

I think your thoughts on real online identities are interesting but I do not believe in either Censorship or total free speech. It's like the halting problem: I don't think there is a fixed list of rules that can always tell you the correct answer (To censor or not).

That's also why it's important for local communities to make their own decisions.

Quantum is not the most intuitive thing to discuss. And frankly a quantum theory without complex, solid maths behind it might as well be a fairy tale.

In the context of how atoms work without having electrons that lose charge and fall into nuclei, how different atoms absorb / emit different colors/wavelengths of light:

The simplest theory is that they just are this way. Just fix up the existing "codebase" to accommodate for this observed fact. So they just said electrons has discrete energy states and orbits to choose from.

It's literally the simplest way to accommodate the observed fact that electrons do not fall into nuclei.

It led to super complex Maths and predictions about black holes, and seemingly conflicts with general relativity. But, Can you think of anything more intuitive?

I recently found my old HTC phone and it had a "fastboot" feature. The boot time is just 4 seconds.

I hope old tech gets a comeback. I hope it creates more local jobs for phone repairs and software customizations. But it's probably just me being stupid.

I feel there is a lack of "local" apps to emulate the old town sqaure, exactly because nobody wants to moderate and track users when a legal issue happens.

If we could make an exception in the law, then it might help create more small tech companies in small towns.

I could be daydreaming here, but: What if we make it legal to run unmoderated social media apps as long as (1) they are operated by a local company with their own software (instead of saas) (2) they function with the same kinds of limitations as a physical town notice board?

I'm still hoping for a quantum gravity theory that can basically explain Einstein's spacetime using intuitive languages. (I'm probably stupid, but I'm hoping it's all just chunks like a game server, with delays between chunks)

I've been using third party ROMs on Pixel 3. They receive monthly security updates to some extent, but obviously the hardware specific "vendor binaries" are still outdated. Frankly, I cared more about the open nature of the ROM than about security/privacy. These days, I assume all my data is available for sale everywhere anyways.
