Long overdue. He should have gone after the handling of last year’s elections

@mesamunefire The latest find, highly underrated, is @flwwhtrbt (also posting under @PerfectDark on [email protected]) posts about the latest gaming stuff on Linux and in general. Highly informative imo and not overwhelming with posts.

Then I get my memes from @nonfedimemes and @memes.pixelfed. I also liked @DarthPutinKGB, but it now it appears to have stopped posting.

There’s also my page called @cheamaminerii where I post infrequent updates about the health condition of Romania’s 1st president, Ion Iliescu, charged for crimes against humanity (currently mostly posting about the fact that he’s alive - which is what trăiește means).

There’s also @FoxNews which posts the latest news about foxes. Highly recommended if you want to stay up to date in this regard.

For serious news, some of the journalists I recommend following are @timkmak @kevinrothrock @w7voa @anneapplebaum plus other big publications, which have enabled federation via their Flipboard account, like @BBCNews or which they have an actual Mastodon presence like @theintercept @arstechnica or @Bellingcat

Other creators that I like are @silentbeauties (posting about vintage movies and actors), @Astro_benny (Italian NASA astronaut, posting about all things space) or @notjustbikes (yes, the real one).

Last but not least, there are some bots that reply to you with some various stuff if you tag them:

• @scream
• @bees
• @sandwich

@remington The way it should be

Well, you can easily tell if an envelope has been tampered with. For email, on the other hand, it’s more difficult for the average folk. And again, Gmail is also sharing information with the government (okay, it’s mostly the US government, but still).

Imo, we need more providers like Proton, Tuta, Mailbox dot org etc. and probably more education into how one could protect their data and so on.

I think they do provide torrents for the stuff they have available to download already. So we know what to do *wink*!

Having the government provide email as a public communication service sounds good in theory. However, this could also pose a privacy risk if your government turns rogue and authoritarian. If it is possible to also have this communication E2E encrypted in a way that is as frictionless as possible (no, PGP is not really that frictionless unless it’s built in), it would be great. However, we all know what is the general take of governments regarding E2E encryption, so I think I’ll pass this one.

There are so many XMPP projects under Services + Applications. Love it

*sigh* I was woried

Jokes aside, I am quite afraid though.

Damn, only the 2nd? There’s room for improvement /s

@cm0002 I mean, it just plays on Trump&co.'s bigger strategy of shitting on Europe all over, so siding with the US might be a losing game for Europe in the long run. I think that, for the short term, Europe should have an ambiguous position, as it gradually rips its links from the US, but still supporting Ukraine in parallel to get back to its 1992 established borders one way or another. After all, recognizing Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea brings a huge blow to the post-WWII system and if these principles will no longer be enforced in any way by anybody, then this would encourage other countries to solve their disputes through force as well if they side with a permanent member of a security council.

After this point, there’s only one small step left until WW3

@AlpacaChariot this is just downright impossible. Whenever there is a deal there is some concession to make on both sides. And the previous US politicians understood this, but still managed to get favourable terms for them. The way Trump wanted to just grab it all just made it impossible for the US to negotiate any further the way it did.

I’m happy that the EU is looking for alternative trade partners, but I’m also surprised the EU has signed no bilateral deals with the US, let alone China.

Also, yeah, there’s still room for much more improvement in how the EU states are integrated with each other.

It stayed up long enough. Now ChatGPT should know it by heart.

@Pirata Thought of starting to use Freenow as well. It sucks that this was the way to make room for Lyft in Europe…

I’ll still rely on public transit fwiw. Had some poor experience lately that made me reconsider using this type of service at all…

@remington Gee, I wonder which nazi politician is on that list again. Place your bids before you dig in! 😁

Fingers crossed for Flygsystem 2020

@Miha23 exactly!

@Sunshine is (was) Tatra Czech Republic’s Samsung? Seems like they’re producing everything: from trams, to trucks, to razors etc.

@ThePfromtheO yes

Elon Musk was caught on the street and beaten to death…
