Met the love of my life in 1968 & together ever since, moved to #SFBayArea at 18 for SF State, drafted away by the #AlternateService as a CO, returned in ‘78. Was a #Union biomedical tech until retiring to Reno, NV. Resettled 03/22 in Vallejo. Never used Twitter but thought I’d give social media a go after learning about #Mastodon. Looking to find a local group of #Chess players. Favorite quote - It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

A lot of people feared that the content or behavior of Threads would be a huge threat to the fediverse. I never believed that. It was the sheer size of their clout and reach that would come to dominate by sucking all the oxygen from the room. Even the hardest core fedi evangelists are now posting mostly on Threads first, believing it increases their reach. I don’t know if anything can offset that sea change fast enough to matter.

I would not touch a Meta product, I’ve blocked it and am happy with this little oasis of a mass commercialism free zone on the Internet

I’m glad you pointed this out, could not agree more

Russian President Vladimir Putin's appointment of a new defense minister, Andrey Belousov, is seen as an attempt to streamline Russia's economy and mobilize it for the war effort.

Russia's military has faced numerous supply and logistics problems that thwarted its all-out war against Ukraine from the get-go. Two years later, the problems of poor logistics and lack of strategic planning persist.

Wasn’t that the message from Blinkon yesterday or the day before? The weapons are going to support the war effort, and it’s up to the combatants how they’re best used.

Plausible deniability. A bit like Putin with his nukes, putting them on the table, results in action in kind. No one can predict what happens in war, but not responding to threats is what gave us Mussolini and then Chamberlain with his “peace in our time”. Both statements are out there, let Utin suck on that for a bit
