What’s #neXt #pubconf24 #pubconf2024

koen, 7 days ago to trustandsafety

I'm getting a bit fed up with people stating or implying that #moderation on the #Fediverse is hard: it is not!

What is hard is to get more people joining the Fediverse. #pubconf24 #pubconf2024

@bjoernsta 95% of our newspapers in the Netherlands are owned by two Belgian companies.
And our school material is provided by basically 4 large vendors.

Even though I agree on your takes on distributing money in a more democratic way, I see mountains of rock and hard place to be challenged before we get to Utopia. 😭

I just heard that the next version of https://kenniscloud.nl will be #opensource software.

That is very good news! @waag @publicspaces

Listening to Shu Yang Li, Alene Hahle and Kambale Musavuli at #pubconf24 I see that there are way bigger problems than the ones we are trying to solve in hosting the #Fediverse and making it better.

However, I do see things like #Mastodon #Pixelfed and #Loops as a solution to a lot of the problems they are showing.

I don't need somebody from the future to #takebacktheinternet #pubconf24 #pubconf2024

I am fixing, healing, creating, and easing the current internet in to a newer and fresher version of it. I have been doing that for the last 25 years and will continue to do it until the day that I die!

If you need help to do your part, contact me and me and my team could help you run your own microblogging platform like mastodon or pixelfed or your own video sharing platform with peertube or seemingly simple things like your own e-mail infrastructure.

TAKE BACK THE INTERNET, START WITH YOURSELF!

Om op tijd te zijn voor de #pubxonf24 ging ik vanochtend om 7:25 naar het stembureau om te stemmen.

Ik was de tweede in de rij, maar ik heb wel mijn druppel in de emmer gedaan. #stemmen #EUElections

En daar gaat het biljardlaken de stembus in

Ik denk dit: #BigTech is niet iets wat je moet temmen. Het is iets wat je moet bestreiden.

Zoals dat kapitalisme uiteindelijk niet goed is voor het individue is big-tech dat ook niet.

Ik zie weinig posts met de #publicspaces hashtag, waarschijnlijk omdat mensen @publicspaces al taggen.

Ik ben het overigens helemaal met @avhuffelen eens dat een minister van #digitalezaken een heel goed idee is.

Heel blij dat @avhuffelen de #mastodon pin draagt tijdens de opening van de @publicspaces conferentie vandaag.

Oh no, the disk of our own server went full over night. But it has been fixed and our server is back on again. 🥳 #mastoadmin

Ah it seems that rather than following my general Peertube account you need to follow this for #TrainTravel

koen, 8 days ago to berlin

I see now that I did not post any pictures or video's of my #TrainTravel trip back home.

Let me explain the reason for this:

I am quite a lengthy person, almost 1.90m long. The 'beds' in the #EuropeanSleeper are not that long, in fact I estimate that they are at most 1.70m long. And that is just too short for me. Even when I carefully positioned myself completely diagonally I could not fully stretch my body. That, combined with the movement of the train, the width of the 'bed' and the fact that you are sleeping in a couchette with 3 other people (or 4 on the way back), does not make for a 'fresh and fruity arrival'. I was broken when I arrived back home this morning and I had to spend the whole day in our own, very nice, bed to get back on top.

Don't get me wrong, waking up in #Berlin and driving in to Hauptbahnhof with the window open is wonderful. The personnel of the train is very helpful and nice and the train was clean, on time and generally outstanding even though the carriages are old.

The takeaway would be: if you are 1.70 or longer, and not used to sleeping in very confined spaces, do not take the European Sleeper train.

Experiment execution: succes!
Experiment outcome: not for repetition in this form.

@kimvsparrentak wat zou ik dit filmpje toch graag gewoon op de fediverse gepost zien in plaats van op LinkedIn:

Nu op naar de Tweede Kamer om te zien of ze daar wel zin hebben in een debat over de overheid en de cloud. Het lijkt van niet tot nu toe. https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/de-hele-overheid-naar-de-cloud-dat-is-een-politiek-besluit/

#SilentSunday near #LikaLodge : forest strawberries , May blossoms , young trees & wild flowers : overwhelm of tastes, touch & fragrances : almost unbearable happiness!

May blossom / hawthorn / smal white flowers on a tree
Pink & white with grass flower
Young leaves , gentle & soft to touch
