Since you write in Markdown, why not a Hugo static site with RSS > Mastodon bot and replies on Mastodon loaded as comments?

I'm a proud member of the Question Others to Teach Ourselves brigade.

So many people are on fediverse instances related to their profession that it feels like we're medieval English villagers with last names matching our jobs.
Dick Baker? He's a baker. Jane Carpenter? She's a carpenter.
dick@infosec.exchange? He's in infosec. jane@hci.social? She does HCI.

White noise is very common in nature, but it is by far not universal. Many Physical phenomena produce noise with different power spectra (e.g. blue or red noise). As a rule of thumb white noise is the "least correlated" kind of noise (you can think about it as the "most random", but notice all the inverted commas here 😉 ), blue noise is more uniform, and red noise has more slow variations.

Just to clarify, I’m not going to #FOSDEM, I’m going to #OFFDEM.
I don’t attend, speak at, or legitimise so-called “free software” (or “human rights”, etc.) conferences that let surveillance capitalists like Google launder their reputations by sponsoring them. I’m only taking part in OFFDEM, which was created in reaction to FOSDEM’s lack of principles and ethical backbone.

"Uncertified web" will be the new deep web and having your real identity associated to every online activity will be the norm.
No one can be held responsible for this further step towards 1984, because it will be the people themselves who will demand this change.

I bet there will be a wave of platforms offering to certify the authenticity of a profile (associated with a person) and systems to filter out any content that is not signed by these certified accounts.
This could be corporations-driven, governaments-driven or a mix.
We'll basically give away privacy altogether because we're suffocated by computer-generated content: how else would you know you're not talking to a bot on a social network?

@nilesh @post @aral I'm pretty comfortable that the #AGPL protects users of SaaS services from being locked into #FOSS commercial services. Yes - they might have a lot of data to move if they want to abandon the commercial provider they've chosen, but there's always an escape route if desired. The same is not true for proprietary or SaaS built on weakly (not #Copyleft) licensed components.

It's more complicated than "Russia invaded Ukraine" that seems to be quite popular in Western mainstream media.
In fact, it is more complicated than what the average Western citizen seems to be able to handle, apparently.

Found this article describing the sorta new creepy ass transnational governance of "multistakeholderism" i.e. Davos + WEF useful : https://tinyurl.com/76xn7v4m ... BUT even better seeing the groups confronting their bullshit this week with specific issues like climate justice and debt relief in global south. ( birdmusck ) https://twitter.com/DebtforClimate

I've never been there and have been here since GNU Social. You could have stayed on Twitter.
Unfortunately, Russia may be freer in some respects, but in others it is on the same trainwreak as Western countries. Have a nice day you too!
It's spelled "in the Western media propaganda bubble".
It's spelled "US".
