And it costs innocent people their lives or makes it at least very miserable. Yeah, what to spend billions for…

Use uMatrix and see more sewage

Let’s poke the bubble.

Does anybody care about people in Yemen? Such a fuzz about a stupid group chat while the big story could also be the airstrike and murder of people. What happened in Yemen?

In thie fesiverse graphic each person has exactly 1 connection to a fediverse thing. But in reality, there can be more. I guess in practice there are often more than one.

That’s me most of the time. Does it mean I’m ADHD?

There’s nothing stopping you from using GPL.

But there is a culture - I think even explicit - of using MIT or APACHE licensing. In some sense is okay, because it simplifies crate compatibility. But it comes at the cost of feeding the usual suspects who now obviously turn against humanity.

My unconfirmed suspicion is that there are forces behind (Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta) who like permissive licenses because this makes it easier for them to exploit the work of the public.

Always have some chewing gum ready. (I would advise for cyanoacrylate but that’s illegal in some places because you could use it to stick yourself to the road as a form of protest)

“Could lose”? We are long past this point. When you can chose between two parties and they try to manipulate the election as hard as they can, then that’s a zombie democracy at best. And now? The president stands above the law. He can fire people illegally. He can disable law enforcement. Democracy in the US is gone. Hopefully only temporarily. Now it’s up to people to act, take their rogue government down and repair what can be repaired.

Is tempting to check if it’s still down. But wom’t touch this ugly domain.

Happy to be inspiring :)

TL; DR you just made my day :*

For self-defense it’s actually okay.

I’m vegan - I compost the rich.

A pity this article does not give any link to sources…

Please panic. There’s Librewolf. A deshittified Firefox fork. Would be great to support that project.

What a strange universe we live in. The old US: pushing surveillance and police laws to fight terrorism, drug dealers, and pedophiles. The new US: has a president who is of open to terrorism by supporting far right groups and storming the capitol, has a billionaire on his side who really seems to be on some psychoactive substances, and now this.

Windows also used to show me the ugly face of Trump in the start menu even if I didn’t ask for it. That was more than 4 years ago. Recently was accidentally hovering over some ‘copilot’ button in Edge of a friend. And again - pop-up with Trump. So yes: fuck Windows, fuck Microsoft

How about another type of control: by default your profile is not federated. Then you manually select the instances you trust. And your data getcs shared only with those. Dating usually is kind of local anyway. If i live in australiay I’m likely not interested in matches from the UK. So instances could already serve as some pre-selection based on your region and possibly community type.

My last impression was that alovoa would need a lot of work still. It’s also the best thing I’ve seen so far but it’s very buggy unfortunately.
