Sure, but they still need to learn consequences. Otherwsie you teach them that certain things are fine.
Look at everyones invited, Under 18s committing rape / sexual assault. surely there are lines that get crossed where action HAS to be taken.

I don't work for overleaf I just use the platform, and really recommend it.
The internet also makes working remotely far easier , tools like @libreoffice @bigbluebutton and many others also make it easy to work, collaborate, @disroot has a stack of resources for that too.
If you need help or clients then there are enough people here who share the same values, which should help build a great port folio.
what we need now is a federated alternative to linked In, something much simplier but where, like here people have conversations rather than shouting about them selves in to the ether trying to sell you something.
@lucifargundam @zleap my point being that starting your own company is always an option. I recommend setting up a consultancy (sole trader) company (I still have one). It also makes it easy for you to work for companies with minimal commitment and more control, and test the 'fit' for your ethics. I think it also impresses a prospective business customer with your organisation. If you find a company you're happy to work for, you can become an employee if you (and they) prefer.

@silentbaz Gillette lab soccer. Just showed cracking shot from Oxlade Chamberlain (just went wide)
@lucifargundam @zleap not sure. I worked as a research scientist for 5 years after finishing my MSc in engineering. Got frustrated with the organisation's poor management and their use of MS WIndows, so I quit and started my own company at age 29. I was able to avoid anyone else's incompetence other than my own. Worked out quite well. Now working for a charitable foundation, which is making the world a better place.
They don't see big tech as unethical
One tactic for us, is to say we are committed to safeguarding, privacy, data protection and ethical / moral behaviour, therefore you won't find me on Facebook or using Microsoft products
see if that gets them thinking
We just submitted an application for a stand at #FOSDEM 2023.
Fingers crossed we'll get a stand.

Sadly having Facebook / Meta / Twitter on their CV makes them more employable, despite the lack of morals and ethics of their previous employer(s)
@Pyriel Even though I am from England and support England I made some posts earlier to help spread the word, it also helps generate content here.
Will be kinda funny if someone from Wales posted the England line up :D
@binarytango @aallan @Raspberry_Pi
Worth taking a look as they suggest service where you can host your own Mastodon.
This could be a game changer.
@witchescauldron Thankfully there are lots of journalists on here now who cna hopefully spread the word properly by being here and reporting from experience
I'm not a football fan, but I am a bit of a Welsh Nationalist.
But I'm so happy Wales made it to the World Cup. As of now.
My 7yr old daughter has been learning about it in school, including learning some songs.
I walked upstairs to read her bedtime story, and she was belting out Yma o Hyd
Brought a tear to my eye ![]()
Is it possible to create a sd card that has the OS and Mastodon on, so that people can boot up, set up their own mastodon config, then connect the pi to the internet and host their own mini instance ?
Nice, @Raspberry_Pi set up their own instance 👍
Are there any specific instances for American Football, I can try and invite a few Britball teams
