*light dawns* CounterSocial (and Trump's TruthSocial) are single-server communities; Mastodon is a big multi-server community ("federation"). All - mara Nov 7, 10:22 5
- Be careful not to join the Ferangi or else the fee is far more than $8. -- nm - Qale Nov 7, 10:58
- Also realizing that what I really want is a service that combines followed individuals and followed hashtags into one timeline. A column for each - mara Nov 7, 10:41 2

Colts - Already dooming Saturday on a Monday -- (link) - budice Nov 7, 10:22 14
- The front office and Irsay should be suspended for hiring a guy this far removed from the team. - Will Hunting Nov 7, 11:06 5
  - Maybe nobody else on the staff wanted it? -- nm - Strongbad Nov 7, 11:18 1
    - We know that’s not the case. Every coach wants to move up. - Will Hunting Nov 7, 11:40
  - Wait, you think he could do *worse* than Reich? -- nm - Spawn Nov 7, 11:11 2
    - He doesn’t call plays and he’s not a coach on the team. There’s no way he is up to snuff on the actual day to day of the team. - Will Hunting Nov 7, 11:14 1
      - this is a PR move that buys Irsay a week. -- nm - Remlik Nov 7, 11:30
- He might be the 1st HC in NFL history without any pro or collegiate coaching experience. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 7, 10:25 7

    - Wondered if the Interim designation offered an exception -- nm - budice Nov 7, 10:29 2
      - I would think. Often you need to name your interim immediately and would have a difficult time meeting those requirements. -- nm - Strongbad Nov 7, 10:32
      - Correct. Interim coaches don't follow the Rooney rule because of the urgency. -- nm - Inigo Nov 7, 10:32
[an error occurred while processing this directive, no wait, Bery took care of that too.] -- nm - Qale Nov 7, 10:11
