Thank you Mastodon and the Fediverse for being an example of communicating without billionaires and US venture capitalists calling the shots. We're going to need more of this.


People like being cynical because it hurts less. But cynical people don’t effect change. So the tradeoff is pain.

so when we we think all of the anti trust suits get dropped for big tech companies?

I say February

in reply to chosa

I wouldn't be so sure, for all Trump's faults, which he obviously has plenty of, J. D. Vance was pretty clear that he's mostly anti-big-tech and wants antitrust actions to continue. He's likely to be a lot friendlier to smaller companies though, but I think that's a good thing on net.


Just utterly horrified a colleague by showing them the unplugged flash drive in my hand, whilst sharing a Slideshow from it on screen.
removing the drive in use seems to have really irritated them, despite the fact that writing to unencrypted drives is forbidden by our systems anyway and the file I wanted was happily sat in RAM.


This is the most unhinged thing I’ll see today.

California voted to keep slavery in their prisons. In 2024. This happened.

Canadian legal information database sues company behind AI chatbot

The Canadian Legal Information Institute (CanLII) has taken the makers of an AI chatbot to court over what it says are a violation of its terms of service, due to the chatbot scraping CanLII's database in bulk. #press

If children's story books had to pass accessibility testing, so many of them would fail basic colour contrast tests. All should be tested by being read in a dark, dimly lit room. Stop putting black text on dark blue, ffs.

Wenn ich den Verlauf von Mails anzeigen lassen mΓΆchte, also alle in einem Verlauf, dann mΓΆchte zumindest ich die neueste ganz oben haben und nicht ganz unten!
Aber auch hier gilt wie fast immer, ihr gebt den Leuten keine MΓΆglichkeit das in den Einstellungen anzupassen…
Und die Aktualisierung der Android App hat mal eben einen Teil meiner Einstellungen ΓΌberschrieben.
Das ist ΓΌbergriffig! Ein absolutes "No Go"!!

Wir danken Ihnen fΓΌr Ihr Feedback. Wir werden es an die Entwickler weitergeben.


I love you all, and I'm so sorry. This is a deep blow, and now we all have to live in the anxiety of all the what ifs. This is a time for unity among us, not to play blame games on other people who also didn't want this outcome. You all mean a lot to me, and we will need each other more than ever in the coming months and years. A virtual hug to you all, you're important and you matter.


Everyone processes grief differently.

One of the reasons people break up and families fall apart during times of grief is because the stages of their processing and healing don't line up. All of us need different things to heal, and none if us will be healed in one day.

So let people rant online if it helps them, let them make jokes or make light of the situation, let them cry and feel despair. All of those feelings are correct and "normal" right now. Go ahead and feel your feelings however you need to.



Still posting on Substack? Remember this is a nazi bar. It was all along.


And thus, my friends, the $44 billion for Twitter weren’t lost at all but rather invested into bringing United States’ wannabe-dictator back into power. Now that this goal has been accomplished, Elon can expect to be richly rewarded.

Oh, you are still on Xitter? Driving a Tesla? I hope you are happy with what you’ve helped achieve.

(A number of other US tech billionaires are guilty as well, but that’s the one who didn’t even make it a secret that he is there for fascism.)

Be careful about what you say and do and how you look.

Never trust anyone who says they agreed with you but just couldn't vote for Harris.



Super excited that eggnog season is back, yay, that means my favorite part of the year has arrived, if I can resist from over-indulging in it Locally here our Walmart had it as well as Albertsons


If you were eligible to vote and did not vote in this election, I have to ask: why? And, was it worth it?

I'm genuinely asking those questions.

in reply to Chris 🌱

Please be careful before you start shifting blame of the election results.

How does one de-radicalize people, dissuade them of conspiracy theories, break them out of cults? There must be books and research into this? Both at scale and at the individual level?


Second time this year I'm taking time offline, second time this year the world is on fire when I get back online.

I only see one solution. I need to go offline forever.

is there anyone in my bubble of fedi who can put a friend of mine in touch with a New Zealand trucking company that's hiring immigrants?

she currently holds a US CDL with hazmat and doubles certification, so she should qualify for anything



Remember, France is already governed by fascists, and Canada is just an election away from this.

This all because people vote against their interests.
