@khurtwilliams Because you asked if it was a vacation and I said “no” but now I say “yes“ after reading your description of intent. Family connection, culture connection on those levels would definitely be a vacation for me, so...

@khurtwilliams e-bikes are the best, say I, especially for they way I’m living here in the Meadows, which is my deliberately obtuse way of referring to Las Vegas—there, saved you the bother. Better batts for better range or charger homogeneity would be a boon on top of the boon.

@khurtwilliams that sounds much more like a vacation ❤︎ I'm changing my answer ❥

@khurtwilliams Paying customer or not, you're allowed to do whatever might come to mind. I pay because mb already did (does) what I was looking for, blog hosting, but with a bonus community, and bookmarking, and user flexible css, and rss, and push to other services of interest, and developers that develop (rather than convince vc problem solvers that it really is only mb that matters), and discovery via random general interest intersection, like the old days when you wandered around the garden party open for conversation, and so on.

@matti “...they said a practice nap wouldn’t help...ha...”

@MitchW Totes. Bigly.

@khurtwilliams No. “Vacation“ from some things in your life? Sure. But time to actually relax, whatever that means for you, probably wont happen when the enterprise is focused on such an event.

@mandaris Right? So many ASCII! But everyone seems levelheaded. The thread is so long because it entails a slew of issues with news and social, dev goals, user support, horizons, and a bunch of etceteras I know I've missed.

@khurtwilliams Because you want bigger and more doesn't mean the devteam or manton does. I certainly don't, but I also don't think this platform is being built for me.

@samgrover Tabor?
