@strypey Adding words to "Capitalism" helps define it.

e.g. "Modern" Capitalism

When words like Capitalism become "Modern Capitalism" it shows at least a more recent version, period of time or a timeline that people can relate to, even when different to your definition or experience, it's more in the agreeable now or 'gone too far' version.

So that "modern" in this case can help people live more what they have seen personally rather than way back when.

Adding words before and after can help as sub-category or other attribute WITHIN the main theme or topic or ism.

Greta Thunberg @gretathunberg has been kidnapped by the IDF on international waters! They do not own the Gaza strip by any legal standard, they are not allowed to decide who gets to dock or what they can or cannot bring. They are not the legal representation of Gaza, unless it is run as an open air prison.

The fact that a ship full of humanitarian aid is making the Israeli government go haywire exposes the exact problem. Thank you, Greta and all the other activists ❤️

Systems built upon #exploitation and #oppression of people... 

seem to be built upon and of people.

(taken from quote below - ni.hil.ist/@mu/114626116042263)

GRETA THUNBERG: My message is that right now international law is failing us. International institutions, our governments are failing us. Media, our companies are all failing us. Or “failing us” is a diplomatic way of saying that our system seems to be designed in a way that is built upon exploitation and oppression of people. And so, there’s no one to turn to. There’s no one we can turn to to rescue the situation, but it falls on us to step up, to continue flooding the streets, to continue organizing, boycotting, to speak up on all platforms to try to send a clear message that we will not stand for what is happening right now.

the future is not something that can be bought and sold, the future is something we have to make together

@adanielroth Well, one week ago mastodon.social had a better TOS. I guess we'll have to interrogate individual instances as to whether they intend to adopt Mastodon gGmbH's TOS template or not. Personally if I move I'm probably going self hosting because if I have to change instances once what stops me needing to do it twice? I THOUGHT mastodon.social was the reliable instance!

@mcc @Moss @adanielroth purr.neocities.org/

Meow is a viewer for Mastodon export files. Such files contain all of one's posts, stars and bookmarks.

(Advice For beginners: To obtain export files, you can go to your Mastodon account settings, open “Import and export” and click “Request your archive”. You will receive the download link by email shortly thereafter.)

@mcc @heathen_cat Perhaps things like Internet Archive could be the exception to the no scraping rule (almost only Internet Archive) rather than a kind of 'accept all' for scraping which mostly all bad / unwanted / for commerce ?

@tarheel planning to set up my own instance at mcc at dryad dot technology. Will update and use the account migration feature.

HELP US SOCIALLY DEVELOP VIA CHAT! [JITSI + INTERFACE = CHAT ROUTLETTE STYLE] 

@yPhil You always do QUALITY work and such SUPER-BASIC acting stuff with simple-complex behind it.

MY IDEAS FOLLOW - WOULD YOU LIKE TO HELP?

I'd really like to use these kinds of clever things for a Chat Roulette of our own where people sit and talk to each other via existing / etc in a bit more easier point and click 'next' way

Standard like jitsi.freifunk-duesseldorf.de/ + interface / overlay / frame to click next

People developing people more often as a social incremental advance
(others can develop computers if they want too - but giving people an outlet to ACTUALLY DEVELOP US SOCIALLY as it's too much tech now and not enough upgrading what social is and how to do it better.)

Hope you understand what I mean! <3

Thoughts on that...?

@yPhil Is there a 32bit Windows version for people?

I know it's maybe extra to do / not many on it but census show still some actually sticking with older versions so maybe add if no biggie!

Endless economic growth on a planet with finite resources is not feasible. The conference “Beyond Growth Estonia” will be held on the 2nd-3rd of October 2025 and will launch a public debate on how to ensure Estonia’s adaptability in a changing ecological and political reality so that our #economy serves the natural environment and society, and not the other way around. This is the first major #degrowth event in #Estonia.
