I like the answer of caring as if it's one humanity (not as a concept as such) but as a practical need of participation from all (to any level) and knock-on effects from doing it badly we save by talking / learning beforehand...

Serves us all to 'align' somewhat via educational understanding before we actually get together or work on anything, near or from afar...
CSB: What Jitsi instance do you use btw?
meet.jit.si/ (original instance) implemented a new 'login' which is crazy as you need google or other login or host to try it or use it... and totally went wrong way for me
(I can accept something attempted against spamming or overload yes I see that attempt as fair, but the whole login to those kinds of 3rds party things wrong / too much to ask or encourage for me).

@jeffcliff @bikejourno The first reply seemed quite well done, a good measure of direct by Jeff and maybe for 'perfection' a little more added text and added fire in the end paragraph until "on the grounds that a couple of them are racist asshole."
which all said it well that there a few and need customising to taste using block...
I saw bikejourno as wanting perfecting of population or some kind of education etc but really it is how it is here... and that's great to know... as much as I might sound like OP perhaps I too am learning...
And even the after-comments quite ok... so overall quite good stuff. ![]()
Hi #NoAgendaSocial - does anyone if there is a place with all the cover art for podcasts- I mean in themself are all so great and quite meaningful. Thanks
@garyackerman Or it must be really good :)
(I think it can be and even the "not listening to someone" can be welcome if really the material on screen is great like for exploration on their own). Not 100% one way or another but better deployment of each type of tool.
@GurdeepPandher Hi - sent you message before - wondering if you see this message? Let me know!
@strypey Are there pictures you'd associate with this paper? -
looking for a 'cover' pic of some sort or even 4/5 pics dumped here for me to enjoy...
cheers was a *great* read...
@strypey Do you mind if I just paste text here for my reference
- also maybe for others instead of link > download > open odt
Government is illegal - A novel idea? (sticker)...
@gigu @RadicalGraffiti
I think there is a good point in this sticker; "ANY GOVERNMENT IS ILLEGAL" (if you click this post).
Because for us (the new born) we didn't choose it and would choose it so it is illegal for us / unwanted / just a rolling way of tricking people into giving them money!
What do people think assuming somewhat there would be people out there doing things for others or we would have a bit of a nice way without the have tax on our life?
#Podcast tips - Audio filesizes too much in bitrate! = diskspace bloat !!
#Podcast tips - Audio filesizes bloated (could be much smaller)
People still bloat audio ... 200% 300%... for voice?.. I know it's a few tens of megabytes but 10 podcasts and it's x10 problem = 100's mbs waste... or 100 files = 1gb or just more in size is unnecessary...
Bad Example (Good-looking podcast with RSS feed + Ogg files):
https://freetalk.show/feed/ogg/
@abhas
could you have a look?
Ep1 = 19mins (56mb) Ogg
Ep8 = 23mins (71.6mb) Ogg
Obviously clever enough to use Ogg and understand it but At over double CD quality (rough estimate), Terrible if I'm wrong forgive me... 64Kb/s is guarenteed safe in ogg or mp3 (half CD quality) but off is tecnically better fore voice so could even lower at 40Kbps (less than 500Kb per minute)
There is little intro music yes) but still half size or even quarter is fine for voice and tiny in size.
(also less saving time for users to download and you to uploads and download,less stress on networks and disposable data which podcasts are usually).
Check it out and I'll have a word to see if they can resize each by the time you play it...

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.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
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!).
Podcast Examples:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI

2. The Little Prince book

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...!
