Okay okay rant over. Sorry I went extra hard on this. It's all just so disappointing.
You can leave corporate tech only to realize the alternative platforms aren't really fighting the good fight. It's all marketing by pacifists pretending to be revolutionaries.
The openness gang pretends they're fighting wall gardens. The privacy gang pretends they're fighting ad-tech. But it's all just a market position play. And all the founders are fascist-flirting centrists.
It sucks. They're all the same

It's not *just* that Proton complied with the order (which is still unclear if they could've fought it).
It's that in Proton's defense of their actions, they implied that anyone who protests Cop City is automatically part of some terrorist group that shoots cops and blows things up with explosives.
It's Proton's very obvious politics of it all. It bends towards fascist-y sensibilities. Yuck. I'm so tired of giving money to these types of techno-conservatives pretending to be revolutionaries.

Yooooo, this is exciting. I've always written off #arm #chomebook as un-saveable since they can't be jailbroken with MrChomebox.
I just got like 50 of these Asus C100P arm chromebooks that are "expired". Digging around, it looks like #postmarketOS will run on this!
Still stuff to figure out but DAMN this is promising. Being able to save even ARM chromebooks is epic. Dammit I love #linux and #openSource

This thread talks about going back to an #ActivityPub users's home server to validate a user's content, because you can't trust that the event you got for it is unmodified.
But you can't trust what the home server tells you the content of the message is either! There's nothing stopping a home server from serving a modified version of your content every time it's requested, say, to inject ads into it, or censor bits it doesn't like.
Or to just completely fabricate new content from you.

All written in different BASIC flavours, each of them takes a different approach. Each of them comes in the form of a type in program. The years the pieces of software was released spans 1977 to 1983.

I've been experimenting with Owncast recently (after having last tried it a couple of years ago), and it's *super* nice these days. The Fediverse integration is wonderful (it posts to its own "instance" whenever streams begin, and you can follow that if you'd like, and you can also authenticate to the chat with a Fediverse account). And the S3 object storage makes global streaming really efficient.
I'm actually live right now!

There's a bunch of weird tics like this that make me mute / block someone.
"There are legitimate concerns about trans people" is another one.
And it's interesting in context, as I've watched a bunch of formerly bog standard Democratic boosters turn to loathing the party over the past several years as their fecklessness and complicity becomes ever more apparent.
So somebody who's still singing from the Chuck Schumer hymnbook stands out as deeply, deeply out of touch.

I'll also never ever understand the impulse to blame the party with the least amount of power.
When something like the Proton scandal makes its rounds on the internet, the discourse inevitably devolves into this debate over whether the victim is to blame.
Like, what's to be gained?! Why defend a system that would happily devour you if it meant someone is making money? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The wackiness of the Californian Ideology aside, the Proton scandal is a great example of why we shouldn't judge people too hard for the tools they use.
We have literal privacy advocates defending Proton's actions, presumably just because they don't want to stop using Proton, but want to continue judging others for the software they use.
If you place too heavy a burden on the morality of software usage, you'll turn yourself into a hypocrite everytime.

The Californian Ideology is littered with contradictions like this and it blows my mind. It's like they go out of their way to make sure they don't accidentally help someone who actually needs help.
Obviously, not everyone in the community is like this. But its enough to make your head spin.
