Somehow I have wandered into these micro show streaming platforms where each episode is like 5 minutes. With titles like “I’m having an alpha werewolf’s baby” and “My secret agent gay boyfriend”, you can imagine the quality. Yet I can’t stop hate watching them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=shared&v=9LbXW-v085w#TvShows #Streaming

Chrome seems like a reasonable candidate for a cooperative. It could be jointly owned and paid for by the browser makers that leverage it for their own products. Keep the engine improving with no more need for spyware.

@prealpinux @informapirata @informatica sarò "biased" ma un giornale cattolico quando parla di scienza e tecnologia per me non ha tutta questa credibilità. Detto questo, è vero. La gente on e off line è tendenzialmente passiva. Lo è diventata? Lo è sempre stata? Chiaramente il benessere collettivo fa sì che un po' "ci si sieda", quando invece servirebbe molta più attività. Confronto? Non ho idea se siano i social commerciali ma l'essere umano è sempre più chiuso in echo chambers.

Deeply informed and worth your time post/thread from @cwebber on decentralization, federation, Bluesky and fedi.https://social.coop/@cwebber/113527462572885698I have a few thoughts I have meant to write a post on, myself. Putting down the cliffs notes.

Would say that on it's two year anniversary, this pinned @Lazarou post turns out to be pretty damn prophetic..."Stay behind and fight!How?Content moderation is f*cked, anti Vaxxers and Crypto dudes are verified.I'm not sure what we're supposed to do at #Twitter...Migrate to somewhere that can't be bought by a Billionaire.That's how you fight."So, think we learned the lesson? Maybe need one more punch in the face?

We used to be leaders in EV new car sales! Heres the Q3 2024 sales numbers for #EVs defined as #BEV or #PHEV#BC 24.9%#Quebec 34.6%(#Ontario 9.5% a no incentive policy position)Quebec has a$7K rebate ( added to the federal $5K).

Mit den Stunden wurde aus Morgen wieder Heute. Die Routine vergaß, am Abend den Wecker abzustellen, aber Nacht endete früh genug, Versäumtes zu korrigieren. Danach blieb Ruhen statt Schlafen und irgendwann wird es immer wieder langsam hell. Neuer Schnee über der Welt, unsicher, ob tatsächlich oder nur ein Rest von Traum. Krähen hinter den Dächern. Fenster öffnen und schließen schnell wieder. Unten plätschert das Wasser in der Wanne, gelegentlich ertönt ein Summen, ein leises Seufzen. Erste Schritte, wie immer barfuß. Erstes bewussteres Atmen, in das man sich kurz fallen lässt, einen Augenblick verweilt. Ein vorsichtiges Lächeln, zum Spiegelselbst und der grauen Stadt. Einfach so. Habt es mild heute!#outerworld #the waking city #where we are we are

#Trump is literally aiming to #speedrun #Hitler, which is why his administration publicly declared to #Copypasta literal Nazi Laws that were setup to #purge #jews and #opposition figures from the ranks of #CivilService and make continued employment as #CivilServants illegal.Seriously:"[...]The primary objective of the law was to establish a "national" and "professional" civil service by dismissing certain groups of tenured civil servants. Individuals of non-Aryan origin, particularly those of Jewish descent, were compelled to retire, while members of the Communist Party or affiliated organizations were to be terminated from their positions. Additionally, the law forbade Jews, non-Aryans, and political opponents from holding positions as teachers, professors, judges, or within the government. Its reach extended to other professions such as lawyers, doctors, tax consultants, musicians, and notaries.[...]"#USpol #Trumpism #Facism #Christofacism #Laws #History

I’ve been in mourning / denial the last couple of weeks, but it’s time to wake up and take action where I can. Appalling.https://wandering.shop/@annaleen/113528505126637059

I just tried Blue Sky. It’s like people escaping the Spanish Inquisition raving over McDonald’s. #BlueSky #Mastodon #fedi

Only about a week remaining for submitting a talk at the Inclusive Web devroom in FOSDEM 2025. The last date for submission is 30th November, 2024. If you are someone who works in security, privacy, accessibility, localisation or any other topic that you feel makes the web inclusive and usable by everyone, you should definitely submit a talk! FOSDEM is a conference for people passionate about FOSS and I feel it's really important to discuss these topics in this space, so that Open Source tools for the web can be more inclusive. https://github.com/Inclusive-Web-Devroom/fosdem-2025/blob/main/CFP.md#a11y #accessibility #privacy #security #localization #web #FOSS

Just a reminder: There are plenty of cranks on #mastodon and #socialmedia with wild unsubstantiated health advice claiming that CDC/WHO/etc. is wrong about Covid/H5N1/etc. You are reminded that anyone can post anything they like here, #mastodon is no less susceptible to #misinformation than any other media, and boosting is just a popularity contest does not indicate the scientific consensus on available evidence. And yes, this probably needs to be posted 100 times per day.
