🚀 BOOST FOR THE #ZOMBIES! 🚀
KEEP THE CHAIN GOING!

======> INTRO:
@freemo + others - I thought I'd write you just to keep in touch and also to bring some considerations - some is 'why it doesn't work' here but not all totally related to QOTO but maybe if learning without action is happening this is not ideal / too limited as acronym might infer / try for in question / teaching and more...

So perhaps some considerations to why I think it should be more (which depends if you are working towards freedom) or can simply see all ways are my way and yours if we are to get to something better all round. Or do you not want that? (also good to ask).

I think I'm lucky enough to have an admin that cares (yourself) but who knows how prepared we are to take it to X level which I think we need so it's not just writing and occasionally boosting...

======> LIST
So here's the list starting with █ for each (these are measurables, in no order but all important to me which I'd appreciate reply):

█- Leadership to involve us all on QOTO - I think you need something, at least podcast or shaping future together somehow measurably to act against / for things freedom-loving or however it's framed...

█- You wanted to do some audio between us but only live talk (which my internet speed can't do) so would have helped me to do a offline audio ping pong which is also good for pre-meditated themes and editing. This is not a really bad thing but stopped the audio happening clearly because I'm currently using minimal system + enjoying low-cost modem-speed internet which can't do too much live. So re-consider this at least as a test since you were ok with live which is fairly the same once we're rolling and do 5min audio ping pongs.

█- I'm not sure of your aims...
I thought I was

█- See you're getting in to AI is a big flag for me (and danger in general) and while I like / trust you - too clever friends will obviously land friends possibly in trouble or there is a fear there in who I perceive to help (even if it's before helping or if you 'don't really need me').

So I'm going for freedom which I see as enabled by all those that include themselves... and well I don't know if I should try include or label you in freedom but who knows if this server will help me get there basically... so I've had feelings of leaving (again just saying but hope you can say something) and right now I'm not sure what there is for me...

█- Maintenance mode on QOTO for a long time has perhaps magnified these comment BUT perhaps that is a good thing as plodding along is also not good and need more response / participation / heat back from those going for / searching for same/similar things, which I question as users and eventually admin leading / not leading them (though I appreciate the free being here being a chore but not having will at least for me is just limited for me).

Maintenance seems to be going on and for extended times then you've said and continues.

█-Mastodon can't import back in another profile (so we're locked in) unless a tool exist to make posts in another form... which I'm kind of finding people that can help partially on that... but no import to another Mastodon is bad (maybe offline self-instance or 1 user instance might work to copy outbox.JSON file)

█- Threads / Meta and all that is basically also part of my consideration so not just QOTO or directed at you... because I think we need a ANTI-Meta invasion mechanism or way because whatever we do can be flipped in their favour in the end (such as taking over / scraping too easily without us writing disclaimers or legal footers asking them not to at least).

█❓█ So one question is if you can add ANTI-Meta disclaimer to interface saying:

"USERS DO NOT CONSENT TO SCRAPING DATA BY ANYONE UNLESS USERS MENTION IT'S WANTED IN THEIR PROFILE"

FREEMO + PEOPLE, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF POINTS, THANKS

@QOTO / #QOTO INCLUDED HERE TO DISTRIBUTE WEIGHT OF TOPICS AND REPLY WITH OTHERS SO IT'S NOT JUST FREEMO (but if it is just freemo then this might prove my point he's alone / limited in endeavours I'm looking at)

==================

P.S - NOT TO DISTRACT - BUT

=====> A similar video/audio version of my text is with the link below, to do with building things and refers to revolution or change a lot, is here which is very similar to what I'm saying about participation and structure even without 'my' levels of revolution but something for all of us on QOTO more than just posting/boosting mostly:

Matrix films & #AI / Sentient Machines

(What you might not know about the film!)

The machines allowed Zion to be created...

(Zion = city with massive series of caverns deep under the ruined planet's surface, close to the planet's core, for warmth, power, and protection)

The machines allowed Zion to be created as a method of coping with the problem of human choice, reducing but not eliminating the instability caused by those who rejected the Matrix.

In order to prevent the entire system from crashing, the machines must periodically destroy Zion and "The One" must reboot the Matrix and choose a group of people to rebuild the city.

Neo discovers that this cycle has occurred five times in the past and is about to complete its sixth repetition.

Stephen Faller writes in his 2004 book Beyond the Matrix that Christianity is the most dominant religious theme in the Matrix films

"Zion is biblically regarded as the city of God"

Niobe explains to Neo that in the 60 years following the end of the war, enough humans left the Matrix to cause a severe power shortage for the machines.

Limp Bizkit - Maybe my first time I actually look the band members...

So maybe for the first time for you too!?

Funny how we listen but sometimes don't know anything about them...

Mastodon Backup Viewer Tool - View Your Post Archives in Browser Offline !!
🚀 Amazing - Boost 🚀

https://bovine.social/mastodon/

(JSON archive file to human readable HTML style page)

==================
Why this tool is needed ?
==================

⚠️ Mastodon DOES NOT HAVE it's own way to show your own posts archive OFFLINE in a HUMAN READABLE format!
(LOL!)

⚠️ YOU CANNOT MOVE YOUR MASTODON POSTS FROM ONE PUBLIC SERVER TO ANY ANOTHER!! ⚠️

⚠️ ONLY YOUR SERVER SHOWS NATIVELY THE OLD POSTS SO IG SERVER GOES, SO DOES YOUR POSTS !!! ⚠️

If you delete your profile / move / admin quits server / servers corrupts then you don't have your own posts in a way you can read!!

LOOOOOL....

What kind of micro-blogger doesn't have already a tool or format you can read yourself in the same way online? Mastodon !

Your backup (if you save it) is 1 big text file, with lines of code parameters + text of posts mixed between it all (all stuck together) - so 1 long line of code and post text, which isn't great as a backup!
No images just hyperlinks to the offline image files if you have them !!

⚠️ YOU ALSO *CANNOT* MOVE YOUR POSTS FROM ONE PUBLIC MASTODON-COMPATIBLE SERVER TO ANOTHER!! ⚠️

So if you ever move.... YOU CANNOT IMPORT BACK TO PUBLIC SERVER!! LOOOOOL

NO PAST POSTS IN NEW PROFILE !!!

This tool helps see them offline at least if you're going to move or lose your online server:

Yin-Yang meaning...

" Here is what I see in the Yin-Yang image:

Nothingness and existence (alternatively, two opposing ends:

Yin 阴 means darkness
Yang 阳 brightness), which are represented by the black and white colors, are embedded in each other and are interrelated.

Change and movement: nothingness engenders existence, and vice versa; this transformation happens all the time.

Harmony and balance between Yin and Yang, which is represented by the perfect circle and the overall symmetry of the image.

My interpretation is influenced by the books on Taoism that I’ve read and by the Chinese culture.

You probably see something different, given your Greek background and your personal philosophy. Now, it’s your turn to share. :) "

Imagine that you can't always change industry for the better - because the controlling parts of hierarchy don't want it that way round.

We (you) have to grow out and over what they offer us because they are always traps / sneaky profit / misleading THEIR creations - and we start to grow something new for ourselves and less theirs as possessions owning our digital lives, which they take away from us any time.

Jobs keep people desperate.

State doesn't care much and is not into creating diversity / arts / morality / public intelligence... so what job there are left are crap / for money making almost only.

Needing jobs that don't exist is a crime and problem in itself...

People who don't have a job start looking to do things they usually wouldn't (which is probably what they want for cheap labour).
People regularly get cut off in industry when State doesn't fund any more, automates or moves on.

If system doesn't make many jobs / is always cutting or automating it, then this feels like this is the crime and problem itself.

Being so reliant on it for so many things, including a social circle, community, basic respect etc isn't great because if you loose your job, you lose everything.

⚠️ If we took care of people, and not having a job as a condition, it's almost like this might solve crime!

( or solve the crime of actually needing jobs in which the diversity no longer exists / has been cut or phased out! )

====================
Why I like this + Timecodes 🕛
====================

🕛 INTRO 🕛 ♥ "One Love" first page in the Intro (I like this theme / love for people)

🕛 INTRO 🕛 ♥ "To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream; not only plan, but also believe." <==== BELIEVE / TRUST YOURSELF !!!!
- Anatole France quote

🕛 INTRO 🕛 ♥ Gangs / Individuals came together from different hoods that were rivals, to rap together and make something better for everyone (9 guys on stage for example is very unique)

🕛 ??? 🕛 ♥ Funny moments about "Who's going to listen to Wu-Tang Clan" lol but when you see the story it makes sense

🕛 37m 🕛 ♥ Entertainment, but at the same time this is our life and we're going to let you know the truth of it

🕛 40.45 🕛 ♥ I didn't know people would love other people like that.

🕛 45.51 🕛 ♥ You play along with the game because that's the whole process of coming up... and then you see who sides with the devil...

🕛 46.09 🕛 ♥ When you reach you dream gotta dream about something else... nobody teaches you what to do with success once you get success

🕛 47.08 🕛 ♥ They went down the line, once they got one of them, they went down the line and got the next one, they caused confusion and causing them trouble... started doing wicked things to each other, I watched these things happen.. and the only one that can solve this problem is them

🕛 48.14 🕛 ♥ With Dirty Ol' Bastard and his troubles, everybody knows he likes to dibble and dabble in drugs and he loved the women. And too much of a good thing is a bad thing.

🕛 01.04.18 🕛 ♥ He said "maybe it takes for me to die for all them to come back together" -Rza

Don't think God kills us. He wants us to have life. I believe we kill ourselves, we allow each other to kill ourselves.

That's what's wrong with family. It's neglect.
Never neglect each other. If you see someone hurting, reach out, help out.

https://yt.cdaut.de/watch?v=crRnpMecNgc&t=01h04m18s

🕛 01.04.18 🕛 ♥ Something had to happen to wake us up... he said 'm waiting to die vine, because when I die you motherfuckers are gonna wake up

https://yewtu.be/watch?v=crRnpMecNgc&t=01h04m18s

🕛 01.07.38 🕛 ♥ It came from nowhere, see now it's all been heard and accepted. It was so new then and fresh; the sound, the voices, everything. So the impact will never be to that substantial, but if cat would get together and humble themselves and humble themselves...

https://yewtu.be/watch?v=crRnpMecNgc&t=01h04m18s

🕛 01.08.13 🕛 ♥ Put it this way, the only thing that can stop Wu-Tang is Wu-Tang.

🕛 01.08.35 🕛 ♥ And lots of pressures have intruded on that... lots of economic success, some people mad at Rza or power any of the people behind the scenes... that's real and also part of the life story about this unique family of friends and individuals that have made this contribution to Hip-hop

🕛 01.11.37 🕛 ♥ Nobody changes the game the way the Wu-Tang Clan did, because the changed it for more than just themselves, they changed it for a whole industry, they changed it for their own crew members

FUN FACT #1
█ This is mentioned in the intro of Wu-Tang (music and history, quite educational for a hip-hop group)

FUN FACT #2
█ France's later works include Penguin Island (L'Île des Pingouins, 1908)... and according to France, is God's secret name and means "the child who wanders".

Inflation = Deflation Currency

Says one or ten on the dollar (printed) but buys you less over time and you need more to buy things as prices go up

#Finance #Bank #Inflation #Maths

Says 1 or 10 on paper/plastic but the actual value changes as the system changes - so effective system values and prices are more important than what you paper/plastic money says in your hand as if looks the same number but isn't...

Stop the suffering - less leaning by force on each other

Not just saying:
"As long as it's not me" because thing like Capitalism catch up to all of us in every job or system - it's the root to a lot of suffering as a domino, 1 group at a time or more. So stopping helps slow it all down to make sense of it all...

Power is from this domino leverage on individuals...

I might have to accept I will never sort out my files (all diff types) and will die leaving it unsorted and unshared... I think it's mainly because:

1/ Lack of demand / partnership as incentive and purpose (there's not real reason or appreciation to sort through my stuff for project or just for fun).

2/ Lack of my ability / method
