@trinsec I would love to, but aside from a brief moment as a child I have literally never had the chance to use it even once, which is a huge deterrant.

@Pat So you think 12 year olds shouldnt have the same rights as other individuals due to their age... that would be called ageist. If you can say someone should be denied rights because you assume all 12 year olds are not at their intellectual peak, then you are just as bad as someone who thinks a 90 year old should be denied rights because they arent at their intellectual peak.

@SweaterVest What the hell are you on about, you think I wrote the dictionary now.

Also there is an expectation of users of QOTO to be respectful and mature in your discourse, calling named when someone respectfully discusses something with you will not be tolerated here.

@SweaterVest

I never claimed minor and child are the same. I am talking about the **dictionary** definition of child (which dictates the meaning of the word)... It is as follows:

> a. a young person especially between infancy and puberty
>
> b. a person not yet of the age of majority

As you can clearly see the definition does not claim the "legal" source is called a "minor" it clearly includes it in the definition for the word child.

@SweaterVest

Actually there are two equally valid definitions... One is anyone who is pre-pubecent. This of course has the problem that anyone with a developmental disorder that prevents puberty would be considered forever a child, but thats a seperate issue.

The other definition is anyone who is below the age of majorty. In this case it is perfectly valid to consider a person who has already begun or finished puberty to be a child.

@Pat Do you fight just as hard for young people to not be treated different for their age? Do you rally so 12 year olds can drive cars and get licenses or own guns? Chances are you are far more ageist than my comment, as are most people.

Just FYI to everyone who uses our extra services at #QOTO. I will be working on them all day so they mayu be intermitten... but will all be much faster when im done.

@Lunatech right now these are preipheral upgrades to the infrstructure and services.. but yes once I get to core qoto it will include translations and toot editing.

@Lunatech Do you think a 12 year old should be allowed to drive a car, own a gun, and have full self-autonomy like a person of any other age? If not you're ageist.

@Pat Nah their fine, just old people :)

Most of the #QOTO servers are back up for now. Only a few are upgraded but the new infrastructure works. I plan to finish it tomorrow but wanted to bring everything back up so things arent down for the eveningl.

@greg indeed!

A few moments ago docker reversed course on sunsetting free plans and announced they are keeping them! Smart move.

#Docker

@sergeant Ha!@ I wish i could.

@nat Ju8st from my past expiernce it was the most feature rich, so i went with it. It is kinda the standard in most workplaces

@Hawk1291 They asked her to install AnyDesk... these scammers werent even trying.

@realcaseyrollins apparently she searched google for "facebook support" and it was the first number that came up... she wasnt at all suspicious of the fact that facebook support was posting their phone number on a website that wasnt facebook :)

My mom just got her phone hacked when she called a facebook "support" number to try to get help to fix the fact that her facebook was hacked... she literally got hacked trying to fix the fact that she was hacked.... old people really should not be allowed on the internet.

@sergeant

No, we offer a lot of services to our users other thanjust mastodon.

The mastodon server will not be touched today.

@trinsec @khird @barefootstache

@acjay One example would be that its illegal to have an adjustable or collapsable stock on your rifles.
