Want to underline this advice: avoid that continue to operate in the UK. They are going to implement and or enable backdoors now.

If he's god, he can create a Single Page Webapp without any dependencies, completely written from scratch.

I have an electronic device that is used to connect with my friends and family, I use to note down my thoughts, share my opinion and is needed to do my job and earn money. It was already only barely private and all my personal thoughts and contributions are being monetized, while the last refuge of privacy, my private messages with friends and family are now all automatically spied upon by the (UK) government.

damit werden die letzten Missverständnisse, die fpö wäre nicht so schlimm wie die afd, final ausgeräumt.

Beide positionieren sich als Sammelpool für Soziopathen und gesellschaftsfeindliche Egoisten sowie Leute mit IQ <80.

Aus Russland kommen anscheinend weiterhin massiv Parteigelder, denn man verteidigt auch den armen Putin der ja nur ein paar Länder erobern will.

Beide arbeiten auf ihre Zensur und Kriminalisierung hin. Kündigen es sogar an.

Manchmal regnet's tatsächlich Geld vom Himmel.

Gerade eine 20 Eurocent Münze auf meiner Fensterbank gefunden nachdem ich das Fenster zum Lüften geöffnet habe. 😅

Sehr mysteriös wie die dahin gekommen UND liegen geblieben ist.

Eine Mögliche Erklärung. Oder jemand wollt was gegen eine Scheibe werfen. Oder jemand hat unten Zahl oder Kopf gespielt und sehr hoch geworfen, oder jemand hat das Fenster daneben mit einem Wunschvmbrunnen verwechselt und nicht getroffen. 😅

The fireflower we built at finally got revived in deconstructed form. Now it illuminates the CX hallway in @realraum 😀

Hey other board members here on mastodon.

What software do you use to manage your hackspace?
Like administrate members, administrate payments and all the stuff you have to deal with in your space?

Right now we still use something I hacked together back in the day.
It lives in a git repository, drinks from sqlite, eats bank statements and outputs hledger text accounting files which are then feed to other visualization and accounting tools

Platzreservierungen sind ein echt ekelhafter Auswuchs des Kapitalismus

@ruru4143
Wenn ich denk was die Alternativen sind, bin ich von denen aber auch ned überzeugt:

  • Platzlotterie, wer zuerst kommt fährt mit und der Rest nicht. Keine Planungssicherheit.

  • Immer Überkapazitäten haben, was halt auch mehr Resourcen und Energie verbraucht.

Die ÖBB tendiert eh leicht zu zweiteres und löst das Problem damit meistens sehr gut, oder?

Mandate Interoperability!

https://pluralistic.net/2023/07/18/urban-wildlife-interface/#combustible-walled-gardens

Great / article.

Excellently sums up how Internet platforms went wrong these last 15yrs.

They actively prevent you from leaving or transferring your account. They don't let you export data in meaningful ways. Don't support backups. Wall you in and hold your friendships hostage.

By doing this, they stifled innovation, competition and improvement,

making things worse for everyone by preventing improvement!

Point in case: in and other accelerators, facebook clones never get funding, because even if you build a much better platform, FB would not allow you to switch there.

Point in case: SaaS is all the rage in business, because it follows the same principle of catching customers and keeping full control over what they do and have.

The additional problem today is. Some platforms got so big, that the power balance itself will distort things, even if interoperability is mandated.

On the one hand: Super cool technology. Would love to have one and use it as fancy futuristic ssh terminal.

On the other hand:
It lidar+3d cam scans everything around you. It captures all your hand movements. It tracks your eyes, what you are looking at and likely for how long. It measures your pulse.

Having this data while people are browsing the web, online-shopping or using apps and games, is a gold mine and corporate wet dream.

Like blogs, the Fediverse does not need to win. This is not about having the most users. Or making the most money. This is about interested people finding and connecting. It doesn’t really matter how large it is. It never mattered how many blogs there have been. But each blog is valid, even if it is only read by a handful people. And so is the Fediverse. People publishing, connecting.

For years now I've been complaining that the amount of blogs has dwindled drastically with the advent of youtube explain videos. Today, often you can't find a simple explanation blog, but instead you only get a long winded YT video.

It began with monetisation, which worked better on Youtube than blogs. Now it's also because all the audience is there and creators are copying other creators.

The videos are often ok, but not text and annoyingly long.
