Ultimatums - Freedom or Slavery... (the same game as before)...
My edited picture reads:
I don't like ultimatums. But it's seems it's not our choice:
dangerous freedom
or
peaceful slavery (which means the list below)
passive aggressive control
commercial monopoly
manipulation and misrepresentation
being warlords elsewhere
sociopathic decisions
This seems appropriate to consider. We've been on this road for a while. Our government just feels it can be more open now.

a frustration with myself and my education is that I spent years trying to answer the question of why software systems struggle with basic shit like this. now I think the answer, more than anything else, is capitalism. there is not really any incentive to build systems that interoperate with your competitor, so very little resources are dedicated to that. but interoperation is crucial to building robust usable systems, so you end up building deficient stuff because the market demands it.
Do mention if you like why you're not sure..,. or any comment.... how it's not a clear yes or no (which of course it never is but even 80% could be a yes more than unsure...)
So if really unsure like 50% what the other 50% for you?
There has not been one revolution in the world's history which was carried out by the working people in their own interests -- by urban workers and poor peasants who do not exploit the work of others.

@freeschool bricks are older than the pyramids, and there's a bunch of still-standing brick buildings older than the US in Europe, especially in the west, since the more eastern parts really like their wood.
And of course pretty much all noteworthy castles and palaces are super old too, but that really stretches the definition of a "house". The Malbork castle in northern Poland is from the 13th century, for example:
No photo for a while...but here's one from a few days ago, a beautiful little grape #hyacinth.
Like most people in our area we have quite a lot of those in our #garden. Their wonderful blossoms area such a great sign of early spring.
This specific one grew tall enough for me to get my camera below it and use the leaves in the foreground as bokeh, while a setting evening sun painted everything in a beautiful, warm light.
if we want to go for size :)

FACTS FROM VIDEO LINK

Bitcoin = #P2P - All Peer-to-Peer transactions
People doing highest transactions in four days of Oct 2021! Each of those days had 30+billion sent around the world + other days as usual throughout the year!)
...all using NO central party or entity !
Bitcoin is more Transparent (Bitcoin = open ledger) everyone can see )
= Real Data) in some way by default. You can see the transactions lol....
Banks forget about it, Hard enough accessing your own account!
The Federal Bank doesn't show all it's accounts... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The dangers of that are perhaps everything if everything comes to life by money (and dies from lack of it / backroom deals / mismanagement / cheating etc)

WHERE DO WE GO NOW TO WORK TOGETHER?
FEDIVERSE?
Intelligence for me now is measured now by those who can work together and communicate / chat versus those much less. Those that can help people individually develop and grow like me. Else we fail everyone. Ironically bad people do this better than the good, so we almost just have to copy them and self-check we're not bad along the way.
If not using others mutually then we are leaving them to the Capitalist system to eat up which is a LOSE:LOSE:LOSE (ME:YOU:EVERYONE).
RIGHT NOW... Helping Others using Fediverse could be MUCH easier if people were a bit more DEDICATED.
I'm defined today by my dreams. I try do RIGHT NOW or tomorrow for the children / adults as imagining it were for me.
Together we can measurably do things and talk towards solutions (I see as improving "communications" right now AS the actual solution)
We can solve individually the same-ish problems, and eventually more as a crowd like a crowd-funder (only less money involved, more intelligence). Snowballing the right things 🌨️ =☃️+ 🏂 / 🏦 🚫 = 📊 #FreeSchool

Let's chat soon. We need to care about we do daily and others to also care else we are isolated. No other way around it but talk...
