What would 17-year old YOU do if you suddenly discovered you could #teleport and escape your abuser?

I just finished re/reading Steven Gould's 4-book #Jumper series plus the book #Greenwar by him & Laura Mixon. I've read the Jumper #books (plus Gould's Wildside) a zillion times but it was my first read of their collaboration. All six books are un-put-down-able and are the kinds of stories that make this neurodivergent loner guy want to hug the authors & beg for more.

Scans of two paperback book covers. First is titled Jumper, author is Steven Gould. Image shows a young man in the instant of disappearing while standing in front of a home camera on a tripod in front of bookshelves. Two reviews are excerpted. One review by Orson Scott Card reads "Gould proves once again that in the hands of a wonderful, perceptive writer, there is no such thing as an old idea. This is a book that you won't want to miss." And the second review by Publishers Weekly reads "Gould's warm, delightful, and compulsively readable novel displays assured storytelling skill." The second book is titled "reflex" and contains a blurry image of what appears to be a humanoid, perhaps falling into an abyss. One review, by Publishers Weekly, reads "Though Gould continues to exuberantly press the boundaries of scientific credibility, his gift for placing ordinary people in extraordinary situations against a backdrop of intergenerational concerns makes this fast-paced adventure sizzle."
Two book covers: first book is Impulse by Steven Gould and includes an image from the perspective below a silhouetted snowboarder sailing through the air. It includes this excerpt of a review by Charles Stross: "Impulse is a cracking yarn; takes the world of Jumper to the next level." And the second book is Exo by Seven Gould, with an image a a young female standing in what appears to be a large, long dark room with lots of windows. It includes this excerpt from a review by Cory Doctorow of BoingBoing: "Heady, zippy, fabulous reading!"
Scan of a single book cover, titled Greewar: An Environmental Thriller, by authors Steven Gould and Laura J. Mixon. Image is of an at-sea facility, similar to an oil drill rig platform, with four piers sticking above the surface of the water, each topped with a large enclosed structure that looks somewhat like gigantic upsidedown cereal bowls, and each is connected to the other by scaffolding. This excerpt from a review by Library Journal is printed: "A page-turner sure to delight Tom Clancy readers and ecologists alike!"
A scan of a single book cover, titled Wildside by author Steven Gould. Image shows a snarling saber-tooth tiger leaping through what appears to be a wooden window or portal.

With #Uber & #Lyft pulling services from #Minneapolis July 1, I’m watching for alternatives.

#TRIP seems promising as a #decentralized "#rideshare protol": trip.dev

Built by the same company, #Teleport is the first mobile client using the #opensource network: teleport.xyz — with it still being invite only, my referral link to log in: app.teleport.xyz/rider/refer/C

Anyone with insight or experience with either willing to share? I'm reading there's also #blockchain

www.trip.devTRIP - The Rideshare ProtocolWith TRIP riders pay less, drivers earn more and early adopters get rewarded.

not that i use #teleport for anything today, but it was one of my more interesting propositions in a company i used to work for, so i was following the news.

is the new license particularly bad? nope. what smells is: companies (teleport, #redhat, you name it) use the idea of openness and community as a startup tool, then change the rules.

i wish you guys started with that license from the get go, that would have been honest.

maybe i'm just too annoyingly strict though.
