You might be correct about the Flock and data centers. Surprisingly we have a state representative here in Idaho who's pushing hard against the data centers. Living in Idaho, the reddest state full of white supremacists, likely skews my impression of what's happening.

We aren't even 2 years into this administration and there's been little resistance to it. Now we are at a point where the tech overlords have established a surveillance network to keep such resistance at bay. The implied threat of being watched, receiving a knock at the door or even being abducted has put a chill upon journalists and anyone set out to question or challenge the current establishment.

We need to put more support into independent media and ditch the monopolistic media.

I heard someone say that kids of today weren't able to tell time and I was shocked. I have lost hope for our future if kids are that dumb.

So many flavors of Linux. How does a person choose?
I am running Mint on one machine and am considering putting linux on my main one. Might look into Bazxite.

I have been wanting to run my own Ghost but unsure of setting up and the expense of the 3rd party email server that's required. Also, needing a VPS is an added expense beyond my current shared hosting account.

What does the many vloggers like Casey Neistat and Peter McKinnon think of it? They are a few that made DJI popular and had relationships with the company.

I was born in Boise, Idaho and have lived my whole life here. It's frustrating to see the hatred towards the LGBTQ+ community.

That pale blue dot exists within a universe of 2 trillion galaxies. The Milkyway galaxy has approx 400 billion stars. Our star, the sun, has eight planets. For some reason people continue drawing lines in the dirt on that pale blue dot and then tell other people not to cross such lines. Seems a bit silly to me that in this enormous universe people will be so territorial and hateful.

mastodon needs to improve how DMs are created. It's not intuitive on how to create and sent them.

Yes, it was the solid metal one in perfect condition and only a couple dollars.

I have a friend who bought steel fence posts from HomeDepot online when the actual store was less than a mile away.

Everything people buy is available at local stores. They just need to quit being lazy and anti-social and drive to the store.

Environmental groups should be advocating for instore purchases. Then additional packaging isn't necessary.

remember all the stuff you saw on the shelves of Sears, JCPenny, Montgomery Ward and other retailers as a kid? Nearly all the toys, clothes, appliances, furniture is now in the landfill. 🙁

I respect the investigative journalism of Woodwards however I find it irritating that he's only revealing that now in his book. Knowledge of Trump's continued relations with Putin should have been brought forth as soon as it was discovered. It seems many people are saving critical knowledge and insights for their profits through books.

where does it sync/store your files? I am avoiding and services that store my files in the cloud. I would like to see an app have the option for me to self-host my data on my server.

Found the Wrath of Khan still in the wrapper at a thrift store. Who misses the good ol' days of slipping a VHS tape into the VCR on a weekend night?
Unlike streaming a video there was a bit of a ritual to it. Starting by selecting a movie then slipping it out of the cardboard sleeve. The clunking sound of the tape being sucked into the VCR and the reels engaging to begin playing it. If you were lucky you didn't have to fiddle with the tracking wheel.
Those were the days.

I use SilentNotes for Android and Windows. Seems to work well and can be synced to own ftp or a cloud host. It also has a to-do checklist. It's free and FOSS too.
According to privacy notes it doesn't share any data.

If anyone intends to clearly communicate about Climate Change they must use both Celcius and Fahrenheit when discussing it. Otherwise those in the U.S. won't fully grasp the issue since celcius is foreign to them.
Let's start using C/F in all of our communication to reach everyone.

i have seen some statistics that say up to 60% of homeless have been traumatized as children, 40%are from foster care, and 30% are vets. So our system is continuing to victimize and them criminalize people for their past.

Recently I have had conversations with many Gen Z'ers from different social circles about Climate Change. I was surprised that each of them said they and their peers never discuss Climate Change. Where are we failing on getting the issue and it's threat communicated to them?
