You say Bernie isn't a "real" socialist, then why is he quoting Marx's letters to Engels in this ad?

friendly reminder that:

- you do not need to think someone is the scum of the earth to block them or mute them
- being blocked or muted does not mean you are a bad person in any way shape or form
- you have a right to surround yourself with people you enjoy, indeed, you have a right to happiness
- people liking you doesn't mean you are a good person
- you liking something or someone doesn't mean that that thing is good

it is a misconception I think a lot of people hold, and it's not truth.

Note: depending you where you are, you may get a different IP for parler.com. I got one registered for DDOS-GUARD in Belize and admin contact in Ecuador. Reverse DNS however always points to ddos-guard.net which has registration in Moscow.

@dcid

Signal groups kind of miss the ego boosting factor that share-and-like social networks have, so I don't they will actually migrate there.

@notresz @dcid

Signal in theory has a reproducible build per signal.org/blog/reproducible-a so it should be always possible if the APK you get from Google Play Store is the same as one built from the published source code. Obviously, a target of a tailored operation will rarely verify that 😃

Governmental agencies are standardising on ad blockers because adtech is too much of a malware vector (it also makes it easy to spy on users).

How long before this is expected of CISOs in business too? How about we fix this before it's too late?

@cwebber

In general, content-addressed storage seems to be most suitable for long-term preservation of data because file-names and URLs do change all the time, and the biggest modern tragedy is when you find some image on on some ancient forum, but it's no longer there - you have its link and filename, but that rarely helps. Yet, you can be certain the actual image sits *somewhere* in someone's cache, you just can't discover it...

@cwebber

Distributed storage of content is a great point to draw attention to and is currently addressed by a number of systems that seem to be quite usable from practical perspective - like IPFS or GNUnet.

There was a discussion in Matrix project about pushing media files (which occupy gigabytes on typical server storage) into IPFS but Matrix is specifically a case *not* to as it's a private messenger.

Mastodon however sounds like a perfect place for it.

This thread by Zooko is worth reading to consider just how much we depend on a *single* institution to keep most contemporary cultural production alive. Yet much is *not* archived (eg YouTube!) twitter.com/zooko/status/12711

The fediverse has not yet done better, but could (I left a rant here:) twitter.com/dustyweb/status/13

@talon @n0btc Oh yes certainly, better than WhatsApp! I'm also using it in the same way and I subscribe to your comment entirely.

@rf Авиасэйлс как всегда затащил (а Внуково нет).

@nikolal Do they have a source code repo or something? Can't find anything in the video or the website... I have friends in Poland who would be very interested - my home town of Krakow is also one of the most polluted in EU.
