@techreview The CEOs are at the mercy of shareholders, so will act in the best interest of them, eg profits, dividends etc. If share prices drop then can't they be voted off the board. So yes, let users decide.

There’s simply no reason to trust Mark Zuckerberg and other tech leaders to get these big decisions about free speech right. Let users decide instead. https://bit.ly/39yODsJ https://twitter.com/techreview/status/1351231632922058756 #Tech #MIT

@edalbahida Just going by the pic on the plaque.
@edalbahida yeah., I wonder if we have given aliens will get the impression we all walk around naked though.
@edalbahida It also showed 9 planets in our solar system, of so Pluto will always be a planet I guess.
@edalbahida
I think the idea was back then we want to be found and make contact with people.
As I have seem to have struck a chord with this, I have downloaded the source files from overleaf and put on gitlab (qoto)
https://git.qoto.org/zleap/mastodoncertifcation
The original source is here
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/46406/package-for-certificates
@Erik Good idea, on that, it is just an idea we could develop as a community,
I am trying to work out, given the current employer insistence that people have certificates / evidence for skills etc if we should as a community come up with our own for using mastodon / fediverse and other free software tools.
I found a LaTeX template so am experimenting a little here.
No idea how we could award this, but could be some sort of internal thing, to those who have been here and interacted for say 6th months +
Just a thought.

Another nice looking Matrix client. Open, free, and written in Flutter. Thus cross-platform as it could be.

@Dami_henry014 Welcome to Mastodon.
@waltercool It will be interesting to see how this law works and any consequences as a result.
@jaz There seems to be
Mastodon.scot
Mastodon.wales
and Mastodon.org.uk
if it helps
@waltercool I guess being a former eastern block country they understand the value of free speech, something that was denied them in the communist era.

99% of programming is figuring out why you received a banana when you asked for an apple.
(And the answer is always “because you actually asked for a banana all along.”)
Looking for Polish speakers
@MutoShack I can't help but good luck and hope you get them translated.

If you support bitcoin, you're also supporting massive production of CO2, environmental destruction, and, of course, capitalism.
If any of this comes as a surprise, please, do some reading. 
Update, sent this message via their form still no reply, could say a lot about them as employers.
@rune@mastodon.nzoss.nz Ah sorry, i thought this actually happened, but if it did, then it would not even surprise me in some cases.
