@icedquinn ah thanks, still not good given it is now 2021, and people are still storing stuff in plain text, more users need to learn it is bad, why and hold those that do this to account.
To me there is zero excuse.
@icedquinn Not good, is that the same SASL that IRC uses ? Do you have a link to this, please ?
I did an OU course a few years ago, main assignment was to argue which is better out of electric, hydrogen or biofuel out of the evidence in the course, I concluded each had good and bad points so a combination is probably better so no one solution fits every need.
I think studying helps you create a critical mind.
Universities are cancelling talks, to avoid upsetting people, no wonder people can't take arguments on both sides and form their own conclusion(s)
@freemo @kino @dankmaximus We have so many people who have fallen
through cracks in the system. The government just does not listen.
@freemo @kino @dankmaximus I have to admit I don't watch the news very much it is mostly wall to wall covid, when there are other things going on, in the world.
@kino @dankmaximus @freemo Indeed, i find the news is very one sided.
the media report too early or on hearsay or gossip without stories being clarified, trying to get THAT headline i guess. so then they end up retracting something or one paper contradicts the other, it is a mess.
@freemo @kino @dankmaximus It is nice to have platforms such as this, i get the impression from the BBC things are a lot better now Trump is out. There is more to this than just the president.
Talk here, Prime minister should quit my question is and be replaced by Whom ? That is on twitter so i let em get on with it, here we can at least discuss nicely
@freemo @kino @dankmaximus yes you need a fresh start, so you 're saying the Democrats are just as bad as the republicans, sounds like the same as we have here in the UK, neither side is fit to govern really.
@freemo @dankmaximus The media have a lot to answer for.
@freemo So are there more protests planned to coincide with the impeachment?
@fsf Not just schools but other places too, try to have meetings with anyone it is usually zoom, got it in a container (snap) otherwise it would not ever touch my system.
Is your school forcing you to use Zoom, Skype, or other proprietary videoconferencing software to learn or teach? We want to help you stand up for your rights! Sign and share our petition, and tell us about your school: https://u.fsf.org/34d

@zleap what a kind offering, Paul. Thank you very much. However, I think you are fine to make your own list, Paul. Just like @itsfoss's https://itsfoss.com/open-source-video-conferencing-tools for example. Mine will be based on friends suggestions here at mastodon aside from my own teaching experience.
