They better not do anything to this kid.

This is the golden question. I am so sorry

@nixCraft Its so SIMPLE, anyone taking all 600+ official courses can do it! (certification required)

@simon How many more datacenters running off town's electric/water would it take to fix this problem?

@RavynWitch Oooh awesome, those things are so cool! I saved one that got into my house yesterday.

When they insist it’s just a cold or that nasty summer flu going around or a nagging cough they can’t seem to shake since last winter or a brief illness or a mystery disease or allergies

How it seems these days

Going "fungal". Like going viral, but more organic because you're on the Fediverse and no artificial algorithm helped.

Yo, real talk—what the fuck are we gonna do when the internet gets shut off?

We've seen it in #Gaza, in #Iran, and when Elon “I-play-God” Musk blacked out Starlink in Ukraine. Every time shit gets heavy, the state or some oligarch clown just pulls the plug. It ain’t just a glitch—it’s strategic, it’s repression, and it’s a fucking reminder that most of our comms infrastructure is in the hands of fascists, corporations, or both.

I’ve been working with indigenous comrades who rely on #Starlink to stay connected in remote areas. And yeah, it’s wild that you can be deep in the bush and still shitpost from a mountaintop—but that signal still runs through a pipeline owned by a Nazi tech bro.

We need to be talking more about mesh networks, autonomous infrastructure, all that good shit that anarchist tech nerds have been yelling about for years. Decentralized, resilient, community-controlled comms aren’t just cool—they’re necessary for survival.

Let’s keep this convo alive and start building the lifelines before the next blackout. Shit’s coming fast.

I'm meeting with my BC Member of the Legislative Assembly tomorrow to specifically ask him to work with me & others on championing the use of the fediverse among elected representatives.
I'm inviting you to write a reply to this Mastodon post, which I will deliver to MLA Botterell. #yyj #BCpoli

Many constituents don't use the fediverse, so why do you think this topic should be of concern to MLA Rob Botterell?

You can also send him a message:

Welp, everything in the world is shit, basically, but my grapes had a little pumpkin in them, so that's fun! 🙃

Seen on Bluesky:

Guy explains to CEO of Signal (messaging) that it's going to add "AI" to the service. She says no. He insists, not knowing or caring who he's talking down to.

@michalfita I think Im going to change the license to LGPL 2.0 since what matters to me is that modified/derivative works remain open. I see no merit in limiting its use.

Thanks again! You've been super helpful

@megmac So Blue Farm Cafe is Luke's? 😄
