@lhgmk2 Don't be. Last weekend it was grey and dreary, it sucked!

@lhgmk2 Here (Northern Netherlands) it's the other way around. It's so bright that I even had to wear sunglasses indoors.

Excellent, 12 monitor arms and one dual-monitor stand ordered. From that other website.

And a coworker volunteered to be my buddy in filming the Xmas theater next week, now I feel a lot more at ease.

@fourmajor I'm sure that Chromium-based browsers like Vivaldi will try to do something about this.

Ryle had a heart attack. 

People being sent death threats... DDoS on UFoI members, one LGBTQ server in good standing was blocked by 33 other instances for supporting us openly.... Yet they insist there is no problem that needs addressing, to the point they violently oppose an agreement between server admins to engage in transparency, ethics, and evidence in interinstance moderation....

These things prove that the need for the UFoI is very real.

Ryle had a heart attack. 

I'll be back 

@SweaterVest 'Twas a Red Dwarf reference, I kept that grammar style. ;)

I'll be back 

@SweaterVest I could smoke you a kipper if you're back before breakfast?

@garyackerman I would be worried about the off button there too. That whole thing isn't designed for sanity.

Apparently now people are sending death threats to UFoI members... all this does is reafirm to me the dire need for sonethi g like the UFoI

@hvangalen Er zijn duizenden films die enorme hoogte tonen... ik ga niet eens raden. ;)

UFOI drama 

@SakuraNoSeirei@octodon.social You don't have to join though. UFOI doesn't "want" you to join, it's totally optional.

@gingerrroot Okay? I don't even know why you're hostile about it, but ok?

Ryle had a heart attack. 

Ryle is now hospitalized after having a heart attack last night. Ryle asked the Awoo! moderation team to write a post on their behalf and to be transparent. The conversation was brief, and we have pieced together most of the details.

Ourselves believe the heart attack was caused by a combination of things, suspect the recent stress involving strong conversations around Fedifence, Fediblock and UFOI. The triggering message was in reply to one of the UFOI threads telling Ryle to kill themselves and with video footage of men brutally stabbing a woman to death. Ryle is unlikely to be around for a while.

Receipts of the post is available on request through direct message to: @Transparency

This material is heinous and will break rules of other instances, so we are only sending this instance administrators/moderators on request. They are free to share at their own risk the receipts.

DO NOT attempt to contact Ryle to harass, upset. The moderation team also now have full access to Ryle’s account, and ourselves will be actively removing any unpleasant direct messages left.

If the heart attack is discussed, ourselves ask that you PLEASE do not tag Ryle in the conversations. Replying to this message is okay. If you are going to discuss anything regarding Ryle otherwise, PLEASE do not tag Ryle on conversations that would cause stress.
