Follow a string and you can get answers if you can patiently accept the ball of string attached to the end of it.

@lunastation

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.

bro listen to this shit.. its called "birds" by Nature from their album Outside

I'm looking for #LongCovid sufferers in #Texas who are willing to go on the record about their experiences with this illness. #CovidIsNotOver #WearAMask

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]

Law primarily serves "capital" (perhaps profit and ownership of people and things like their assets?)... 

primarily serves "capital" ?
(paraphrased phrase in picture)

So for and ownership of people, and our productivity like we are their assets and sub-subsidiary of them?

What do you think - Do they really care isn't it mostly money in mind and just using everything as a way to carry further re-sell the world even if it's not needed?

(perhaps "capital" meaning profit and ownership of people and their productivity were their assets and we're sub-subsidiary of them?)

Text in picture:
"20 years ago we were suing teenagers for millions of dollars because they were torrenting a single Metallica album and now billionaires are demanding the free right to every work in history, so that they can re-sell it.

The law only ever serves capital."

@delta Woa! 52 years and the protocol's still going! Even slight evolutions or version can still keep simplicity as original (and perhaps innocent, which is I think FTP can still avoid using passworded dirs)... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Tra

I only use what is simple nowadays, both for simplicity and long-term defence. (+add your own via reply!)

Think FTP / SSH protocols for storage-simplicity with passwords on to stop spam and choose who to share with - changing passwords often.

All this web interface stuff is getting highly gacked and actually used as attack / advertising beacons / tracking etc and switching interface one day so my browser doesn't work with it and hooking up with browser makers to enable ads and new 'features' in their newer versions.

We have it all and had it all before - we just need to stick to those things and accept the peak and balance of politics in further versions / decision-making (especially browsers now).

for example
█ Fediverse (still works)
█ FTP Upload / Download client
█ Email (with @delta easy encyption and voicemails over email - even with GoogleMail OK)
█ XMPP (30 years now)
█ IRC (or similar)
█ Text (raw if possible, not even .doc or .odt if you can to make search faster)
█ More I'll expand on one day... but you keep to what you know works best and universally forever! (like the freedom of using any client / front end of choice to upload / download)

Even open source stuff are need high level requirements and we should keep software for old tech FOREVER! Android also which I won't upgrade... it's just a tactic to buy new / upgrade for free into new business model (tracking / 'protecting' us in browser from 'bad' sites etc).

Keep what already stuck around.

Very humans things often need Very human interactions (and Very human beings).

We already have the tech to solve this (like Audio/Video Chats). 🎤 🐟

Many things will be solved or helped by the humans stuff first and then from that the essential computer or people orientated stuff.

To be clear (and not antagonistic) it's NOT just about talking to complicated computers any more.

We have all we need (people).

Just connect to Fediverse :fediverse / :mastodon: / + Jitsi Meet 💬 )

Hoorah! No?

We need now to and spiral that out to 'develop' people... as your main job or at the same time as- but never without). Spiral out to people more, not just talk to computers.

@plexus Here in Portland we have a long-running non-profit called Free Geek (freegeek.org/) which:

accepts donations of not only cables but any electronics;
trains people to disassemble, test, and reassemble computers;
handles e-waste recycling for anything that isn't reusable;
distributes usable equipment to individuals and non-profits who need it;
and runs a little thrift store too.

It's fantastic and I would love to see more places clone the idea.

Human interest to see car crashes:

Q. How to get the natural interest humans have for staring at "car-crash TV" into more of similar interest in opposite spectrum of "Solving the world together one thing at a time" in an equally fast and eagerly awaited way like we would load the next video to see what is happening.

TIL studies indicate that "oil pulling," the ancient practice of swishing a spoonful of sesame oil in the mouth for 15 min. before brushing, significantly reduces the risk of cavities and fights plaque, gingivitis and bad breath better than prescribed chlorhexidine mouthwashes.

I mean, its not even about white people. In fact many nonwhites are immigrants themselves and just as white people arent native its kinda hyocritical either way if gour here.

2024 book / manual: "So you've decided to become isolated and weird"...

Book would be like looking at my posts like a "Life's Lessons": qoto.org/@freeschool/media

lewd picture, nipple 

I had a trist with a dominant a number of years ago online.. he was toxic af, but one of the things that I discovered during that was that taking nude/lewd pictures of myself boosted my self esteem a huge amount.

He have me take pictures to send him, and I actually really enjoyed it.. there was a deliberateness and artfulness that I discovered during the process that I hadn't found within myself before.

I think I'm going to start that again.
