I use XMPP
B/c it is federated (like mastodon, or email); doesn't require a phone or a number. While supporting end-to-end OMEMO encryption.
Ever want to chat? about whatever topics really, or #infosec #it #tech #science #linux #software #art #music #foss #mastodon #programming #engineering #golang #rust #ruby #python even #javascript but I mostly like talking about XSS on that topic.
You can reach me at:
shehackedyou@xmpp.chat
I also setup a chat that for now is public:
shy@muc.xmpp.chat
The fediverse is de-centralised, but it still needs to be hosted behind something, in this post I investigate where the most of the instances are, and working around caching proxies to get a better idea of how resilient to hosting disasters the ecosystem is.

We’ve just published an update about this Mastodon trial which has been running for the last 6 months – you can read it here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/blog/2024-02-extending-our-mastodon-social-media-trial
We are going to continue our trial here for at least another six months while we share our findings internally and seek more engagement from other BBC teams. We are also planning to start researching ways to publish more BBC content using ActivityPub.
Problems sometimes don't exist in the first place... but people use it to get something else...
At the same time as 'solving it' they are hooking people into something else not clear at the start (#trojanhorse / #rugpull)

The raw materials for Lithium Ion batteries:
Cobalt, nickel, and lithium
carry a variety of concerns,
including the environmental damage of mining.
Also, much of the supply is controlled by US geopolitical rivals such as China,
and some of the mining takes place in countries with inadequate labor standards.
In contrast, a sodium-ion battery relies on an element—sodium—that you can find in table salt and ocean water.
Among the other benefits, sodium-ion batteries perform better than lithium-ion batteries in extreme cold.
CATL has said its new battery works in temperatures as low as -40° Fahrenheit.
Also, a sodium-ion battery has much lower risk of fire.
When lithium-ion batteries sustain damage, it can lead to “thermal runaway,” which triggers a dangerous and toxic fire.
The process of manufacturing sodium-ion batteries is similar to that of lithium-ion batteries, or at least similar enough that companies can shift existing assembly lines without having to spend heavily on retooling.
But sodium-ion batteries have some disadvantages.
The big one is low energy density compared to lithium-ion.
As a result, an EV running on a sodium-ion battery will go fewer miles per charge than a lithium-ion battery of the same size.
“That is just what nature has given us,” Srinivasan said. “From a physics perspective, sodium batteries inherently have lower energy density than lithium batteries.”
A typical sodium-ion battery has an energy density of about 150 watt-hours per kilogram at the cell level, he said.
Lithium-ion batteries can range from about 180 to nearly 300 watt-hours per kilogram.

Working together is the answer - that I'm sure of if you want human* change. It's a cruel and long road but better than tech #rugpulls we see all the time. Time to design something more personal and cared for. Re-design Ourselves.

I add Fediverse #Quotes #Notes #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites for a more Human-caring social, not hating, so it's a better example of ourselves and what we could do and love in things we all share and mostly care for.
Towards Togetherness. Agree?
===================
So let's build whatever we can, the best we can. without rugpullers.
Perhaps building friendship at the end is 'it' and can win it for all of us rather than paranoia and not trying to gel together.
Making our own relationship with life rather than shying away leaving it to people hating Trump / Bezos / Musk and spreading news of their actions that self-perpetuates itself more than work on something else.
This profile and life is the work of the heart and mind. We have enough material and tech mostly. Now to evolve the mind a bit more and catch up with the lessons and psychology.

"FreeSchool" is a movement from 1960s/1970s
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_school
Learning via interaction means there is always risk by the way. By not building trust or working on mutually worknig together inaction happens and lack of friendship also allows bad people... so I see us as doing the work more daily or as the good homework we need to do (nobody else can do it properly without us).
MORE DETAIL BELOW IF NEEDED...
BUILD YOURSELF AND ME (DOESN'T HAVE TO BE WHOLE WORLD)...
All aims should be towards working together more personally instead of hating, because most of the hating is free advertising and spreading fear for them ("Bad news is still good advertising)
This means less spreading Trumps, Musk, Bezos names and plans, and more our thing.
Humans change Humans - we the caring people reason better as we have a caring soul and a conscience. We also need to test and repair those that can't. Tech does not care and has it's limits at best which I think we have akready reached and in danger of leaving people behind over-doing I.T.
========================================
Do you have work for me or any ideas / dreams of your own?
========================================
Going towards growing better decision-making humans as a main goal or my interpreration (human-educated examples helping others help others) and not just tech filters of progression / aggression / profit.
Tech has measurably been over-done and had it's limits being backed by BigTech and State-orientatedand heavily regulated infrastructures. This ultimately undoes this and is are not human-caring and just money / profit-orientated the same as the state and companies are.
All $tates use bank$ that cheat everyone else behind their back.
Every $tate let's this happen to keep unfair power over people and keep them down.
I have DIY education more than any Massive Tech-based $haring. We have enough small solutions. We just need to do the human homework together which is what almost nobody is doing and it shows! We canNOT just do tech, we can maintain some tech but then grow the user's interests and direction using caring people and releasing their potential and curating ourselves... Since the mentlaity of people (users) are the weak point of all systems (who are happy to abuse them / add adverts etc) so it means working on ourselves is the best now we have mostly everything else worked on to catch up on the mentality and also realise all the tricks historically.
☼ Free work if you can justify it +
#Friendship (it's for humanity and world too to grow friendship). I edit basic text, audio, video for free to grow the idea of Freedom or not just banks and money made to give us crutches after they break our legs / eat our time and money (energy).
