Also, those lacking integrity/serious commitment to the most vulnerable/marginalized don’t get how they reveal an unexamined sense of entitlement to the energy & labor of *certain* others when they demand petulantly that the ppl trying to educate them do it differently, always finding fault with the delivery as a deflection from focus on *their* actions/inaction.

Since the magic word of the day is ping, this is your reminder that the TTL can tell you what kind of OS you're dealing with. This is most likely a Linux box. https://subinsb.com/default-device-ttl-values/ #infosec #ping

So a lot of people are realizing that the website for Hacking Capitalism is offline. I have had to shut the website down in order to free up resources to host #Hachyderm.

Because the internet cannot buy a copy right now, here is a way for you all to have one for free.

Take the knowledge and go do good things. The world is cruel, but we don't have to be.

"So-called moderates can rely on tired tropes about violence begetting more violence. But such a stance, usually held from a comfortable distance, refuses to see that the fascist violence targeted at LGBTQ existence — and the lives of Black people — seeks to be annihilating and total. Thankfully, there are braver anti-fascist forces willing to stand in the way." https://theintercept.com/2022/11/29/club-q-lgbtq-armed-self-defense/

The SF board of supervisors approved the use of killer robots by the SFPD because of course they did.

please do not waste my time reporting my users for "lacking general quality", it only makes their posts worse

A group of owls is a called a "parliament".

A group of cishet white guys is called a "podcast".

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

Again, there was an international meeting of Anarchist, you may have heard of it; they started that meeting by defining what anarchism is. One of the very first lines in the record of that meeting is "first you must be socialist."

If you're an "anarchist" who isn't "socialist" you're not an anarchist; and most libertarian philosophies that aren't anarchist, are in fact reactionary - fascist if you will.

This isn't my problem; I'm a socialist and anarchist. I fit the description.

During this particularly stressful shopping holiday, I’m reminded that the biggest economic story of our time isn’t about supply and demand. It’s about institutions and power. Here’s everything you need to know about the new economy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMmH_2EYohQ

Scam Alert!

If you receive an email or response on Mastodon like the following, DO NOT click the link. It is a scam fishing for login details at the very least.

"Mastodon has detected botting malware on your PC that is congesting the Mastodon network. All affected accounts will be suspended within 24 hours unless removed. _https://REDACTEDLINK"

#ProTip: every #Mastodon account auto-generates an RSS feed, so friends & colleagues who refuse to join can still reap the benefits of you sharing natively, here ~ they can subscribe to it from any feed reader and always be up-to-date ~ you can do that, too: https://mastodon.social/users/ChrisPirillo.rss is my feed link (there's also a .atom feed for those who care) ~ change the domain & username and you should see yours, instead ~ just like the good ol' days of blogging ~ #SocialMedia #help #fediverse :clippy:

A short message from the Kurdistan university of Sanandaj to the outside world #Mahsa_Amini #iran #kurdistan

Hi everyone, please join me in telling @GIMP to change their name.

I put in some rules on #cyberplace, this instance, which may be uncomfortable for some people. It's only for this instance, and it's to make the wider Fediverse feel more comfortable with us around.

I just had a horrific thought:

What if, as part of the simulation, we're all NFTs?

What if the universe is just some cryptobro's ludicrous cash grab scheme? Are they looking at the simulation and going "Holy crap, our NFTs invented NFTs! We're geniuses!"

Suddenly this all feels like a horror story.
