Maga wantto make it so you cant access the books they dont like, Dems want to make it so you cant access the social media profiles and posts and other forms of free speech they dont like.

Whether your calling for the censorship of Trump's Twitter account, or Hitler's Mein Kampf your in the wrong. Not because these sources are correct, but because censoring access to words is not the solution it is the problem.

What do you think about this?

Me: Awwww hey little guy, what pretty colorful feathers you have. Hope your happy little fella

Stranger: Ewwww, pigeons are just rats with wings.

Me: I know, right, rats are so adorable too!

@freemo oh for sure β€” i’m not discontented at all. i just have an inkling of how much effort can be involved in this stuff and so wanted to express my appreciation πŸ™‚

One of the biggest failings of society is they tend to only believe the emotions you show and ignore when you explain, explicitly, how you feel.

I know you two have shown a particular interest/curiosity in remaining up to date about our migration/upgrade process so just wanted to tag you. Let me know if you want me to tag you on future updates or not, no intent to spam.

A few hours ago, the US carried out a drone strike in Baghdad. Pictures of evidence at the scene suggest, three members of Kataib Hezbollah were killed (the group responsible for killing 3 US soldiers recently).

Let's reiterate: 1 strike, three terrorists killed, 0 civilian casualties.

I repeat: The US did not bomb most of Baghdad, killing 27,000 people to get this done.

Just saying.

Just to Update our team is still working on upgrades, its a multi stage process. We currently have 3 versions prepared with various new features (remember we have tons of features mastodon doesn't have, not even glitch).

The migration that was supposed to happen on Monday got delayed due to some last minute sanity checks not passing. We have since fixed that.

So probably early next week the actual migration will be attempted again, then over the following days there should be ~3 upgrades (may all happen at once) to version bumps using code from QOTO repeat and all the stuff we worked on the past year or so.

After that you should see more regular updates form us... so lots and lots of progress on the dev side, a bit of a backlog on the migration/upgrade side... but we are getting there!

@synlogic He is an old friend of the family (has been over to eat dinner with my mom and dad multiple times). So i am admitidly bias in the sense that I have some sense of him that others may not from the media.

That said I do feel his racism is transparent even if one reviews his public record. 1) he started his career and spent most of the initial part of his career fighting to keep segregation alive. He specifically stated the reason was because he didnt want his white child going to school with other minorities in what he deemed (his words) a "racial jungle". So its clearly established he has deeply racist roots that defined much of the start of his career.

Later it becomes more subtle. Afterall Biden like any smart politician will do what he needs to remain in power. So once racism started to become something that hurt him he moved from oppression to exploitation. Now he exploits minorities by giving them oppertunities (for example in cabinet roles) that are still subservient to him, but such candidates would be a fool to decline for career purposes. In effect taking the "im not racist i have black friends" approach to racism by exploiting them to make himself look good.

It is obvious all the smae underlying racism remains, however, based on how he speaks. For example the famous line he made just a year or two ago "If you dont vote for me, you ain't black" when asked about black voters who dont like him. This is revealing for two reasons 1) he thinks he knows better for blacks what is good for them than they even know themselves, and disagreeing with him, a white person, on whats best for a black person would mean you loose your black card (whatever the hell that means). and 2) his use of broken english "ain't" a word he never normally uses shows that he relates black people to being uneducated and he felt that by expressing himself in broken english he would appeal more to black people, clearly showing his racist way of thinking.

I am truly amazed at the number of applicants I have seen off of this single post. And almost all are well suited candidates worth my time to review. I am astonished that a single post on the fedi is more effective than actually hiring a recruiter. Thank you everyone for the boosts and applications.

While many applicants have made it through and are currently being hired because we have so many positions we have quite a few still available for every level from sr to jr, and both data scientists and programmers. So please keep boosting, sharing, and applying if anyone is interested.

Just a reminder this is 100% remote, no fixed hours, will pay market rates for position. I will be your direct boss and hiring manager (also owner, founder, and inventor of the tech).

I am still hiring for top-tier programmers and data scientist. Please reboost, share, recommend, or reply if you know anyone who might be intereste...

What is your favorite non-nonsensical compass direction?

Iron is surprisingly lethal for such a common metal. Takes about 8 to 10 grams to kill a full grown adult.

Bodily autonomy is sacred. That means I beleive all drugs should be legal without a prescription, abortions legal, and no one should ever be forced to take a vaccine, drug or wear a mask.

Oh shit it gets better.. the cop goes "Sir, put your hands behind your back" again and the guy then goes "Dont sir me, You're sir!" and the cop goes "yea exactly" and the other guy goes "wait...." .... lolololol
