Choosing to host a community on a "free" proprietary platform offered by a for-profit is choosing short term ease and long term pain, and often comes at the expense of privacy. These tools _will_ get shitty and extractive. And what then?

Community migrations are painful and lossy.

We must select tools for our community while considering a time horizon longer than the economic boom/bust cycle.

Can anyone help with this? I have a new GPU but when I installed it, there's no signal to the monitor. The last owner already tested it and it worked fine, the cable and adapter are fine. The GPU even spins when installed.

Aus IT-technischer Sicht zeigt sich an dem #COMPACT-Verbot wie wichtig backups sind, die nicht lokal gelagert werden. Es muss nicht unbedingt Feuer oder Wasser sein. Paul Brandenburg hat das auch schon gut erklärt, wie das mit der Hardware läuft.

the state: makes dedicated agencies for minting disinformation
also the state: we need to ban all speech because of disinformation

i.. really gotta get off this shitty planet, actually.
