RULE #1 If you're going to do anything away from current mainstream DO NOT ADVERTISE IT ON CURRENT MAINSTREAM.

[I.E.] Don't let le cat out of le bag
UNTIL you want to scare the shit out of those you want to scare the shit out of. This is your biggest weapon (as well as incrementing and making sure you're really ready)... You have to do it right and go through all the discussions. No point making a sword and then "oh hey they took my sword!"... and "oh now they made it for themselves using my method, xyz code, idea"...

I.E. Even telling everyone' is 100% asking for the wrong attention. This includes many types of people which actually you naturally want to filter out by letting people come to you if they are really that desperate for freedom. (example: if their not on Mastodon for their own strogn political reasons then they are not your level yet and though you want to save people, getting more baggage doesn't work).

Don't you're going to covert them on this level of stuff (small tools etc maybe but focus on what anyway would happen if they get to same stage as you as you're probably stuck also and needs time to figure out),
Let friends / the right strong types come when ready.

For small projects especially it's about quality and not making those against get a head-start or sniff it too early which I believe mass broadcast does... As they have more resources and love something else new to attack DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THAT.

Also...

IF YOU DON'T NO SEE / HEAR / EXPERIENCE HOW PREVIOUS STUFF HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN.
you're not ready

So don't ask me for examples like some STEM people tend to do and try argue it (this I would exclude from measuring as it is self-evident to your belief)- IF you don't believe / see/ hear/ this stuff happen then this is already a proven thing for me that you're not ready or there (even if this is just in my mind and not real- you don't have to worry about that)

Whatever project you do IF people say or act like 'everything is quite ok' and 'nothing in the past I can think of tells me about these problems' then you know you're in the wrong crowd.

lol I'm asking you not to reply if you simply don't believe and you're not understanding the above.

Shame of mathematics (or it's usage):
In an equation or matrix dishing out debt [negative number and mathematical functions] - there is only a few ways to get out of that... instantly...
none are great exists but everything else prolongs it with dubious cure...

So as some games go (even chess) they are worth solving... but for deliberate man-made mathematical made trap it does make you/I/we ashamed of how mathematics is used more than less.

Make Friends! (with Earth / Green People Around)
Plant things! Spend time with Earth!
THEN REPEAT!

Summary [approximately]
More food, better time spent with planet, less money :)

I have multiple big pumpkins... so we'll see how they get on....

Tomatoes and squash/pumpkin combination are actually winning by my calculations (seeds just needs water and some time)

Can still have money/job but with food prices increasing well good to practice.... if not living it.

In addition to recent price cuts, today I further decreed: the warranty for all laptops sold is now 5 years, instead of 3. Warranties extended +2 years for people whose 3-year warranty were still valid today.

The laptops come with coreboot, which replaces proprietary BIOS/UEFI, and Debian Linux as the default operating system.

I sell coreboot, and coreboot accessories. minifree.org/

TL;DR is just a reflection of people in real life

A rant...

TL;DR is just a reflection of people in real life - anything that is much to do with another person is probably heavier,,, more than 1000 lines of code, staying all night to wok on stuff... working on a motorbike forever or constantly 'optimising' something... all while humans fail.

I think it's this personalisation that makes people tilt earlier or be repulsed and numbers and text are simply 'less hassle'.

Non-human beings and less-human objects to interact with and 'keep focus' and not deal with the rest that comes with being human...

Some might say it's 'for humanity' to do technology which is also indicating what it really isn't when it comes down to it...

I consider TL;DR often about avoiding humans.. and that is the crux of problems all the way back again in projects or just project Life.

Anything that is much to do with another person is probably much heavier than 1000 lines of code or working on a motorbike forever... 'optimising',,, it's ok because it's technology... but the human work is still not being done (I know there are even less no jobs or funding there!).

I think it's this personalisation that makes people tilt earlier too to and even less bar (like always in text mode with strangers).

Being less and less personal AND using less-animated objects / non-human beings = a kind of fascism / exclusion / reduction in interface and simply gets replaced with "machine says no" type of answers... which is an advantage for some people or even benefit not to deal with anyone like it's possible in any colony of ants...

Some might say anyway tech 'for humanity' which is also indicating what really it isn't when it comes down to it...

So you get people in text-only mode as that suits them:
- less personal
- easiest / direct (yes sometimes but people forget it purifies and builds humanity somewhat talking about what you type and even saving time in some cases after 10 misunderstood messages...)

So this every-day purification doesn't happen between humans + increase distances ... so yeah text BUT audibly talking MORE is what I mean. meet.jit.si/chataboutanything

Making programs that don't sort the human aspect out is quite sad in that it's misdirected (IF you consider working for freedom or anything similar it's not because we don't have solutions it's those that don't choose it or fund those that don't want it)

What doesn't sort out people is funding from government or banks for every technology that cuts out people stuff / consent etc... and this is alarmingly overlooked (that's again if you put yourself in the category of caring long-term, knowing about banks or materials for tech etc etc... but if you're just a petrol head or clinging to you computer like a water-bottle then no matter what I say... just excuse yourself)...

Although I guess technology needs this kind of brute force to then sort out what we want although again it's shot-itself in the foot when we already have given those against us or the stupids/unskilled too many ideas and tools which defeats even inventing it..

The human aspect I shall hereby call STEM-C as a new wave of STEM
(C is for consciousness --and also because it looks like stem cell abbreviation or something)

How to use tools is about this mentality that we need to fix at the ugly head of everything... but those hell-bent on power or inventing things might not listen that isn't all the mind(s) first

and we need to fix yours first and then others... I'm asking for much slower STEM and more talking conscious work... not that you're too busy of have to watch endless mindless stuff (even listing to someone is a service).

will edit this in the future - each paragraph should have 1 thing....

Oppressors just stack up more inside their own game...

This is hard to accept and often we individually might believe or hope for 'something to happen' in order for it to change... but that 'be the change' is probably what can increment it back... and yes falling out with people that try enforce things is inevitable...

The only thing we can do is cut from ourselves since it's from us they get their power (siphoning all our energy > money > control and then back down that chain again from even more perpetuation)

You can try for other ways but you have to accept they have the boards covered well and simply play less / make a stand at some point.

Can't avoid energy prices going up

Can't avoid messing with money supply

Can't avoid people / authority trying to control you

And arguably some thing the longer you leave it the less prepared you are (as well as doing things too early which can be bad but *still you need to prepare* as this tangent is most likely or just happening now for decades!)

I see heart shapes everywhere.

Well on the internet too but I've really I've seen a lot of these pictures outside that I've put on 1 page... (and I'm sure you have too!)

(to be pinned)...

For impossible things I suggest you give it more chance more often, as usually it's your perception that underestimates things and not the reality because you assume it isn't achievable or don't stick with it...

even in the extreme things which I would normally exclude it would still make sense to contact more people or leave a note on your profile is much better than 0 signal to people...

...then it just might happen or it might come to you (a person or opportunity) and at the least increments closer to it happening! Like putting more signs in more places or putting a sticker on your bag or badge on your clothing!

In other words:
- Giving 0 chance doesn't increase chances

- Casually you can increase chances (not over trying either)

- <0 chance is saying "no it can't happen" to yourself, and that "no point" even in the preparing of the thought you cut it off (making sure it won't happen)

:o ]

Give it a bit more chance and a bit more often like 1% more! Then finally do it once you see how a domino or cascading waterfall effect works!

Most people's perception is wrong and underestimating the effects of trying inside a colony of ants which has unknown domino chain effects multiple reaction person to person long-way short-way logic illogical - ways - around stuff!

I'm a Barbie girl in my text-only world... ⌨️

It's fantastic, but a worldwide pandemic ⚠️

Come on Barbie human party :ablobparty:
Ah-ah-yeah...

Come on Barbie some audio-only?
NOoo NOoo

(for all the Barbies who don't want to audio chat - you lock out the world - and it ain't getting better turtle-shelling / being over-defensive or scared...

and if you're not scared :blobscream: then do say why reasonably :thumbsup_hmn_g1: ☑️ 🌈 ).

I know there are people who don't understand why text does and doesn't work. But too many run for the hills... I couldn't think of a chicken song...

It was a privilege to represent DOS/PC gaming at such a great event as the Long Island Retro Gaming EXPO this year. I ended up with 48 PC gaming setups for people to play (in addition to vintage IBM compatible machines available in other sections,) with 33 DOS games among them. And I'm happy to report that over the course of 3 days all games were enjoyed by people of all ages!

@freeschool it depends on the individual and the story behind the destination.

Like if you are going to an event, then one tries to forget as much of the journey to get to the destination, e.g. daily commute.

Other times the destination is just meh after reaching it and realized that the journey created more emotional bonding.

From the moment you're born
that's the air of capitalism you're breathing...
and capitalism wants to sell everything for the highest price tolerated....

That in itself is intolerable. Now what to do about it?,,, Probably involves healing of some kind before /during our experiences of oppression / uncaring money / etc....

I remember wanting to get a computer and promising my mum how much I could do with it...
I'm still not sure now...
Although I might make good of the newer upgrades since then (sticking to the oldest I can) I still remember the thought of how wonderful it is and almost innocence in thinking I'd be able to do something with it... like even appreciate for my expression using this as a tool...

I still think of this almost daily

It was a big step in habit change, as big as mobiles to smartphones and mobile media...

I'm still not sure it helps people to like / love people... but I was sure in the car driving past that that is what I needed... and perhaps we think we need x because really y is missing and well we're desperate enough to this a new tool will do it...
Perhaps...

I'd like to hear others about their 1st computer moment or thinking about it... Did it achieve for you?
Do count the gaming phase too, in my case from lack of knowing what else but loading disks and jumping games :L/ which maybe is normal in life to get lost and caught up in things / gadgets.

Just had several people this week mix up my accounts, so to be clear, here's how they work:

@FediFollows - Suggests interesting accounts to follow on here and maintains a directory at mastodon.online/@FediFollows/1

@feditips - Posts hints about using the Fediverse once a day

@FediVideos - Boosts interesting Fediverse videos and livestreams, usually from PeerTube and OwnCast servers

@homegrown - Advice for non-technical people and orgs on setting up their own online services, based around a website at growyourown.services

(I also have a personal account at @FediThing but that's just random fun stuff, nothing serious or useful!)

Money Alternatives: Libre Currency Ğ1 – A Medium towards Freedom

- Audio Conversation as Introduction

OwnCast is great but the level of dead data / droppd data afterwards is a terrible exchange.
Per second is 1mb/s up and down stream eating energy away and for static stuff mostly watching someone doing not much... even regardless of crappy topics I don't like even my stuff it would be hard to justify and mostly for the chat sidebar (similar to Jitsi in Audio/Video chat).

people have to imagine more of a cost about what they are doing and even allow downgrading quality -

The MASSIVE disposable data and bandwidth I personally would justify even for my own 'best' stuff. (If I have one tomorrow kill me!... but if you do like / hate the idea also do let me know as I was thinking before "live" is better than "text-only" or "unanimated" teaching / education / awareness) so it makes sense even at HUGE GB's of watching we will still watch people on screen - a double edged thing usually not working out well

SUGGESTION: At least make stream resolution selectable @ 140p / 240p / 360p video or audio only since even best talks or DJ we might not want to watch all the time and get back to our own work but would listen in like a radio a bit longer...
Would be hard to leave data streaming like that much like leaving a tap on...

Otherwise just another hole for data to be wasted and burned and apart from 'fun' it might just become another standard between those that don't understand (like having 12MP photos and asking services to given them more cloud space / buying new hard drives when they could just keep 5MP pictures or choose what is 12MP a bit more specifically!)

The cost makes me want to cut off my arm to save the body!

(in this case, save the planet's energy and our own bandwidths per second)

You can measure UP/DOWN data load using a bandwidth tool (yes you would be surprised!)

If you want to see the shit people are trying (fair enough for a bit of testing) then watch this profile to get updates on people streaming...

botsin.space/@owncast

We could do more educational things better I feel... But then again probably nobody would watch like their channels too!

Question: How to store water locally without plastic?
I could use buckets to catch water from the roofs I have... but wondering what else there is... I should know but I don't :)
