...or massive frigging projector ! 📽️
It's loopable and <0.5mb = good value - mute audio probably as it's just added as 'bonus'.
I can change it anytime SIR to any audio in sync with lights!
Happy New Year all GNU people and every other LAN Event, Fan Clubs, celebration do's, religious blessings - you put this on!
Would look nice next to the decorated tree too,

@prav Read all terms and conditions as well.
It's part of the design to be aware of (if serious about acting on anything fair or unfair in the future).
We've received word from many newly joined members that their reason for joining is our fully-free Jitsi service member benefit. In case you missed it, we recently published an article about this often overlooked member benefit.

@freemo Is interesting to me but really I know the right answer, at least for now....it is the simplest protocol the way I've like it while doing things before and how Debian have done it for years (+many skilled-others). See: for example what I mean here:
https://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/
Longer version of why not even needed to add here, see how fast that way. You can skip any hassles and just set up as above which is the default / base style file system and just send a username and password to connect to 1 directory as my root that I can create downwards only in OR just up my limit in Mastodon storage and call it done.
Next year you can try more if you want to spend time experimenting with new stuff and it will be better / clearer by then.
This is just a few files for me and how I like to work and to get some of those bigger interviews on that I've already have done now and ready to show you here and the Fedi to see what people think!

Banks use your deposits to make loans...
Banks use your deposits to make loans...
and don't give you as much as they would charge to get a loan.
The loans they give others are often larger than they might have in the bank.
Loans for houses, big business etc...
█ this the false root of unethical power that generations went along with.
█They don't ask you each time.
No parent wants to mention paying for money and while housing prices shoot up and up disproportionally every year and while salaries stay the same for years- it's no wonder (but parents still don't get it sometimes or want the best but lying and hoping you too will go to work for the debt.
Unfairness begins in the game of "money" itself where some people - banks mainly - can make money from money itself.
Banks use it as a commodity here we are not allowed and can't use in the same direct way. Power imbalance,
The power of Banks being able to 'give' while taking more interest and more fees in total (and the doubling effects of the debts and payments along the way) is the result for decline or movement of money back to banks only to repeat the process.
Any bank note is mainly to say someone promised to pay more back for it (if it was taken out as a loan to start with).
It's like promising the world to give 110% which is why people start killing each other or taking over, because even selling your grandma and her land won't eventually solve this equation and selling what was mostly free becomes Las Vegas style costs when it encroaches into your hometown.

Richard Stallman (+ and - after contact and small video work)
+++++ Answered right away
(5/5 - was personal, by email)
+++++ or +++ Continued answer FAST as fuck
(5/5 - but could be 2 less as my content and basic question was chopped off all the time / not answered and wouldn't answer even why he wouldn't answer! - human orientated behaviour improvement type suggestions perhaps not for him and things as I explained that's almost half the work (people not just machines!)
So not even why he continued to respond and work together of small video clip but never for those other things. That was actually dodgy.
+++ Very Logical, Practical
(4/5 I even like the healthy selfish "I need this done" and "talk to my assistant" which I did - but again both of them missing / self-censoring answering? Why.
Even while mentioning it again as 1 sentence or rewording it and mentioning I'm doing that to try another way, no spamming intended or even mentioned by them. That's the thing unhealthy people do so I flag the human thing and not answering (even a bit).
So overall is not 5/5 and even though I did consider his star / busy position and did much more than expected it did leave that quite puzzling even now... which is
- - - - Ignored totally my "Human" type questions and even a 1 line question why
- - - - He kept asking, even spamming to say "could you said it in 10 sentences or less" (almost exactly and only that, even though I did. He wouldn't answer like your typical person... hmmm must be a good reason or "computer says no?"
His profile is like political news profile and would like to see personal revolution and deep-development... full circle sir!

█ Audio of RMS (in ogg format, wink) - nice content really it is (more towards what I mean as human and using these things to spread too directly or as solving ourselves with each other). My similar post at the time below:
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/108437067315134483
or the direct audio to the above is here:
https://audio-video.gnu.org/audio/2022-04-13-rms-state-of-the-free-software-movement.ogg
AND I realise I 'documented' the interaction a bit here lol (so bit of a repetition and wish here)
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/108940006815404225
I / WE don't wish to expect everyone on form but there was a deliberate avoidance here I get from normal people - like 'nah let's to talk about actually fixing each human one by one" or "let's not talk about what I think or why I will not answer")...
but then a year and a bit on I find his Mastodon like any other boost-everything political profile (or just recently?).
I thought "since he's so fast" and far along he could / would literally be touching people's soul or at least assistant he could set on that if he can't... he does
The personal touch to 'convert' people's life and for them to remember every day together with other fans is needed (fan to fan if not himself).
Ok enough from me. Still here and have time if you read this. I did the basic video work so why not reuse us in all ways?

@olives Online photo privacy tip
- remove EXIF meta data / turn off settings.
█Turn off 'Facial recognition' option in your camera phone software (!)
█Remove extra data in photo (EXIF)
Tools - essential examples:
►☼ https://exiftool.org/
►☼ https://colorpilot.com/exif.html
- Mastodon does this by converting your pictures to PNG. So that's a quick way.
- Try these tools because all other places will keep your JPG meta data
So delete / remove / turn off
1 ◘Location / GPS off
2 ◘Camera name / info (none)
3 ◘Other info (Date / Time etc - can modify before uploading)
Otherwise just save to png as quick fix 100%
█ And take less photos!! (with the above settings / considerations also!!

"Police forces have been secretly conducting hundreds of facial recognition searches using the UK’s database of 46 million British passport holders, it can be revealed.
Policing minister Chris Philp sparked fresh alarm among privacy campaigners at the Conservative Party conference in October when he announced plans to instruct officers to use passport photos to identify suspects in all burglaries, thefts and shoplifting, as part of a Home Office drive to increase police use of facial recognition.
However, Liberty Investigates can reveal the practice has been secretly taking place since at least 2019, according to a freedom of information (FOI) request – with searches dramatically ramping up in the months prior to Philp’s speech.
Data obtained from the Home Office shows forces searched the UK passport database – which contains the images of all 46 million British passport holders – using facial recognition technology more than 300 times in the first nine months of 2023. Forces have also carried out searches of the UK immigration database, which holds information on foreign nationals."

(My personal experience or what I wish others would see is avoidable at big cost - and even time-wasting without)
I spent the first 6 years of my kids life with a very limited household income. We went to the library probably at least 3 times a week at some points. It was a place you didn’t have to pay to go to, you could just exist and let your kids devour stories and knowledge for free. That made more difference to their early lives than any paid for activity they did…and they felt happy and relaxed there, because there was no pressure to conform or perform.

ok so i'm looking to make a website for my ceramics. to start, it'd be a simple landing page with a bio, a contact form, and some photos of my work, but i'd like to have the option to include some kind of e-commerce...... thingy in the future.
as you can probably tell, i do not touch computers for a living. what's the best way to go about that? is there a beginner-friendly way to do this? is it possible to do it for free or on the cheap? are there any ethically sketchy companies i should make sure to avoid?
[boosts and advice *greatly* appreciated]
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.

A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).

I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
