Why can't we have these payment options
@textovervideo Reasons, possibly in order:
1/ You need Balls - I recommended Masto payments or people to work on respect or pay it forward as tokens but not much back, which moves onto 2nd oint
2/ Communication if you don't have a profession or good avatar is aesthetic for people. There are plenty of weird but strong people and nobody wants to use them - I could myself and measure all the typical reasons why, apart from fear, aesthetics or anonymity a problem while proof of work and "not being afraid of own shadow" super handy to have but alas... no
3/ People like Stux and Trade-free Trom people still don't understand what money is (starts as a debt sold, and then resold while in accounts) so basically a scam / ponzi (but I won't use my breath here, either you know or don't!)
4/ They have family
5/ Will-power NOOOOT THERE
6/ Regulation and gangster-like territorial people, instantly attracts bad actor to you doing business outside of their "matrix" pardon the pun
I wrote this up before probably but above main chunk is above if you were asking seriously? :]
Just imagine supporting developers through XMPP or Matrix, instead of sending funds and donations using third party services. Wouldn't that be a sight?
@textovervideo The name #xvid as name reversed from #divx I think was really clever and suited it's purpose and development.
Can you see #IPFS being part of anything in the future?
@textovervideo Main question:
Can you see #IPFS being part of anything in the future?
==================
THE REST IS A SIDE-TOPIC /
NOSTALGIA ABOUT #FTP / #SFTP
=====================
I still see many #FTP / #sFTP silos used by quality players of the game and really apart from 'old' and needing over-fancy websites I still haven't got major reason why people *don't use it* it's like they forgot that you can change a file and instantly F5 refresh shows the filename or other changes like it was almost local...
So something a bit raw and less clunky is what I was thinking then added layers of nexcloud / owncloud on top naturally slow on clicking and more the server level protocol which literally you can have in a client / drag and drop, see filesizes, rename etc all directly... Not bad (but yeah if I miss some major features we couldn't work around let me know, even like having connections on when someone requests and then disabling, or public passwords that rotate fast etc)
Anyone remember using any of these proprietary softwares to communicate with friends a few years ago?
#proprietary #chat #messenger #communication #icq #aol #aim #yahoo #msn #skype
Joining the #Mastodon #Fediverse reminds me a lot of my prior experiences 1. dabbling in #linux & #oss, and 2. exploring the early social web (#BBS, #geocities, #ICQ, #AIM, #blogger) circa late 1990
Roll your own ethos, lots of effort to get in, things don’t just work, pioneer mentality, lots of #hackers and #tinkerers and #hobbyists, small but passionate #community seeking connection.
Maybe won’t have mass appeal but perhaps that’s not the goal?
Autism + ADHD + Disabled + Neurodiverse + lgbtqi FOR THE WAY! [solid people / more stamina]
@undefined @james@strangeobject.space Well so far I'm liking what I see,
And if it's not too weird I think whatever the terms for saying auDHD autistic ADHD - all of those categories seem to be winners for me as "people" because they care and can answer, stick to things, even if not perfect and accept imperfections usually as a result.
The "others" seem more settled INTO imperfection and actively staying there where we (me included) know the only way is share our way out of all messes which means to try or even punch our way out nicely or otherwise!!!
Those people designing things outside are not playing around or holding back indirect punches either so we can't be afraid of each other or words or dare I say "fighting for logic" and what might spread to a lot of other better things like;
Fun,love,geekery,witchcraft pick your fun-poison! Some incremental intellect!
Ok "good stuff" is the TLDR and army of autism gets my vote...
[hops off to read more, let me know when you there are enough replies from me if it becomes many - which will be proportionate to how good the other posts are !!] By for now!
#Autism + #ADHD + #disabled + #Neurodiverse + #lgbtqi FOR THE WAY! [solid people / more stamina]
@james@strangeobject.space @RickiTarr
My last few post titles reflect exactly this post and the root of solving quite the "everything" such as:
1⭐ "Donate your time - not only money - money also gets cheaper over time ⭐
Money is a cold material made from banks from it's own debts! 🏦 👎 !"
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/112786259681736024
2⭐ MOVEMENTS THAT ARE LESS-HUMAN FAIL!
Need to listen and talk to each other which Gov, Charity websites, Richard Stallman etc don't do as GNU or whatever !
Many Mastodon accounts are 1-way or very selected 2-way minimum replies...
THANKS....
👋 👋 👋 Applause for you and others doing otherwise! 👋 👋 👋
Modern life needs more favours / friendship / help than not...
@kimlockhartga The funny or irony of this logic is you ask those kinds of rhetorical questions and assume almost all are going to not do someone they just met a favour, but for me and other that is all we have in the world to try to do (as sad as it is) because the cold pay of money or paying for things (that cut out all the warm stuff is far from better) but again probably lacks real example but in general YES ask me more than far-away distanced politeness or whatever else...
If you have a scenario or if you're really that famous to have it more than 3 times a day, let me know!
And side note maybe is also saying a nice-no reply is also need as training as people do frown. gossip, burn a chip about it when they could say better...
Love or general giving is more about the motherly type of giving which nobody gives you respect for at the end but you do it for children and others could be the same (bad actors aside)
This whole thing of needing to pay first or just take questions for what they are, is literally killing things (not to make it too extreme the other way in saying but really capitalism taught people well and they probably can't even see it)...
A bit o wisely spent consideration is not impossible... 😉
@rysiek Does this mean "you have a hand in changing your own future" or could you try for say another few versions of it?
It's hard for people to visualize removing tons or billions of tons of carbon dioxide (CO₂). I propose we talk about CO₂ removal (#CDR) like a time machine (e.g., this machine will take us back 5 minutes). For example:
Q: How far back in time does planting 100 million trees take us?
A: If one mature tree takes up an average of 25 kg of CO₂ per year, then 100 million trees will take up 2.5 MtCO₂. That's a time machine that takes us back 33 minutes and 6 seconds in a year. It's not a lot.
Neil Brown - Knows better but deflected the topic. Guilty.
Neil Brown @neil
Unable to answer reasoning for using alternative links instead of advert-tracking youtube , com links.
(i.e. trying redirect.invidious.io made by @Invidious) and bit of sarcasm instead,
Unwilling to consider helping the many or just preventing power and money via click of his links.
Knows better himself but deflected the topic.
Guilty.
@neil
Welcome to the shit list.
@neil Can we finish the subject of link you supply people?... so like. logically- can you help the many clickers by giving them better / less tacking ones (same video ID, just open source website cancels the crap part)?
Then I'll happily move on also!
@aral
I vaguely remember a story from the 1930s, where a miner asked why the mine owner cared so much about the mules but not the miners. "Replacing a new mule costs me $40, but I can replace you for nothing."
At the solidarity action for the Land Alliance as they tell Ford to respect Indigenous rights and protect their sources of life on their Territories!
Standing in solidarity and saying "no" to unwanted mining activity on their lands.

DONATE YOUR TIME *NOT* MONEY = MONEY IS USING COLD PEOPLE LIKE BANKS & THEIR FEES - MONEY IS LOSING ITS VALUE OVER TIME TOO!.... MONEY IS A BIG TRAP AND FULL OF PROBLEMS! SORRY! 👀
❗ EXCEPTION❗ IS WHEN SOMEONE IS RIGHT NOW DESPERATE ETC - SO OK "DONATE"
BUT IF THE WHOLE THING IN LIFE IS ABOUT COMMUNICATING BETTER (WHICH MONEY SKIPS AND MANY MOVEMENTS ALSO SKIP) THEN WE NEED TO COMMUNICATE WITH MORE CARE / LOVE / RESPECT MORE OFTEN, *NOT MONEY ASKING / GIVING ONLY* BECAUSE IT SKIPS THAT PART IN KNOWING / LINKING BETTER! 💸 🤑 🏦 💔
MONEY IS GETTING CHEAPER BY THE SECOND TOO.... ❗ 🚨 💰
MONEY IS USING BANKS (COLD MATERIAL AND COLD PEOPLE AGAIN!) ❗ 🚨 💰
🧠 MONEY IS NEAR USELESS FOR MIDDLE CLASS AND ABOVE TRYING FOR CHANGE - WE STORE IT IN BANK AND BANKS JUST USE IT TO DILUTE OUR MONEY MORE BY LENDING IT ABOUT 9X more THAN THEY ACTUALLY HAVE.
🧠 WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO EQUALISE THE INTELLECT IN THE WORLD, MUCH MORE THAN MONEY AND POWER THEY OWN.
#MONEY IS ALMOST NOT WORTH IT UNLESS THERE IS INTELLECT
#DONATE YOUR #TIME ⌚ 🕛 ...
TALK TO PEOPLE MORE *NOT* MONEY ONLY - MONEY IS LOSING ITS VALUE OVER TIME !
IT'S A SYSTEM (A SCAM SYSTEM, PONZI SCHEME ETC!)
========================================
I'M HERE TO LISTEN TO EXPLAIN ANY OF THIS... 🙊 👂 🙈 👂 🙉

@simonzerafa @tim @neil
Hi - you seem like you're fairly away so why don't you use better / les google links? I.E PLEASE can you use Invidious to filter the bad code and adverts, really thanks - and let me know why not otherwise I'll be back! 💣 😃
Here's the better link - all jokes aside, what do you think of using this instead?...

MOVEMENTS THAT FAIL ARE LESS-HUMAN / WEBSITE-ONLY MOVEMENTS... ⬅️
IF you can't get a human on the phone, email, internet call (someone talk to somehow) then your movement is severely limited / has failed...
There is only so much people are able to do on their own... (mind and body). RIGHT? ⬅️ #QUESTION
The whole point is to change people.... and you need people to do that also!!!
MOVEMENTS THAT FAIL ARE LESS-HUMAN / WEBSITE-ONLY MOVEMENTS... ⬅️
And if your team can't THEY NEED THE PRACTISE TO TRAIN 🏋️♂️ THEMSELVES 🏋️♀️ TOGETHER LIKE A #HELPDESK INTERACTION!!!
I can tell you how in your context - no purchase(s) needed!
#HELP AM I RIGHT?![]()
F is for Freedom and #FreeSchool hashtag is what this is about...
All things towards #Freedom (moving from Shorter to Deeper and Caring thoughts)
TOGETHER & MORE OFTEN DIRECTLY (who else is going to do it?).
#FreeSchool profile has #Notes #Quotes (extracts / gems) from great #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites from all around the world towards
#DIY Care (because nobody else is going to as best as you do for those around) - #Caring IS our main #Politics / #Politics and "System" (not a system of cheating each other but caring and what Capitalism is cutting out - this is what we need to put back in and teach to those willing).
#Degrowth / PostGrowth
#WellbeingEconomy #DoughnutEconomics
#CaringEconomy / #CareEconomy / #Partnerism
"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁
See My #FreeSchool (Hashtag) for latest examples anytime. Or keep open and refresh from time to time:

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
