Donald Trump owns a social media platform. His spokesperson owns another. This one is owned by a pro-DeSantis troll.

@JonathanTurley & GOP reps claiming there are conservative free speech concerns online has to make this one of the stupidest hearings ever before Congress

@GossiTheDog

Which is hardly surprising, so to combat this the government would be better off getting more people trained up to use computers better and support companies to do the same.

Switching to Linux is one solution but that just stores up problems down the line. as that will eventually become the target.

@ev

I think this is why it is preferred to call Mastodon / Fediverse social networks

@GossiTheDog

Out of interest in terms of being vulnerable, is there the risk level the same if using windows, mac or Linux on the desktop?

@briankrebs

The fact that Russians were charged with treason for helping the US investigate cybercrimes almost suggests that these offences were Russian state sponsored.

So, since JoinMastodon.org has decided to change the way servers are listed on their website — showing preference for large servers who do not have a manual review process to join —>

I think oxfam sums this up with something like 5 percent of the worlds population has 95 percent of the wealth.

@ExtinctionR

So how do we encourage people to dump their normal social media and set up here. how do we wean people off Microsoft, teams, google, zoom etc.

The alternatives are there, just need to let people know about em. and they are worth switching to.

That looks weird, very different to the rings around Saturn / Neptune.

Planetary scientists are puzzled by the presence of a ring around a distant #KuiperBelt object. Scientists reported this week the discovery of the ring around #Quaoar, an object a little less than half the diameter of #Pluto orbiting beyond #Neptune. The ring appears to be uneven, varying in width from a few kilometers to a few hundred kilometers.
