I think that will change over time as developers choose specific features/platforms to work on and when admins start customizing how their instance displays info more heavily instead of just cosmetic or federation changes.

12·25 days agoNo they do not want government. If you want a more accurate description of anarchism ask this on the anarchist community.
12·1 month agoA lot faster than I expected. I mean its good for the fediverse anyways.
2·2 months agoAgreed. No one needs to answer this thread. Actually don’t upvote either. Just think and share with others.
Yeah, I hope that no one that answers this gives full detailed plans I just want to know that I am not alone in feeling that we need to change our behaviour and hopefully prompt others to start thinking about what they are going to do. Things are fundamentally different now.
Bots have good reason to do it, because it makes them more relatable.
Humans sometimes can’t help themselves.
I want to say that I appreciate the effort.
Curating this volume of content is impossible, and there are legitimate dangers in giving the government too much ability to shut down free speech
Agreed. We have already given more than enough control to the government in other areas of our lives. We now have alternative social platforms that give us a chance to actually have more direct control over our media landscape which hasn’t been true in such a long time.
you have to build a society that doesn’t want to engage with bigotry, and explore and question its own assumptions (and that’s not ever a fixed state, it’s an ongoing process).
I think this is what they were trying to get across when they mention media ecology. They were pointing out how the structure of where media is shared and its sources can be more important for quashing disinformation than the actual content itself.
So when something is shared through YouTube there are certain pressures that over time mold the source of information into a specific format.
I’d say the same is true of the Fediverse as well. That’s why its important we get the structure here right because it will determine what kind of platform this place turns into.
Edit: grammar
61·2 months agoYeah there has also been an increase in the amount of companies either making FLOSS work more closed off or just not caring about them if it benefits their bottom line.
Unrelated I like your new profile pic.
4·2 months agoYeah it is totally valid. Actually just came across someone that was talking about something similar to this.
Edit: The main idea was that we as humans tend to get trapped in something called progress traps where as we advance technology we use that advance to over exploit our environment leading us to more problems down the line.
3·2 months agoAlso THUNK. Not necessarily that close to what is on your list but I like his takes on philosophical takes on a bunch of technical fields.
1·2 months agoThx for the feedback. If I was to try this what do you think I could do get black rather than brown dye? Would I have to use flowers that are closer to cyan, magenta, and yellow so it is closer to the cmyk color model or does that not help?
Also yeah idk if the contrast problem could be solved.
Trying to do say three layers would then take six hours, so whatever you’re using as a mask has to be super absorbent or reflective to UV (think very thick black paper or tinfoil). Anything else, and your underlying layers are going to bleach somewhat.
Do I need to do it in multiple layers? Also I was planning on trying to use the paper as a replacement for photo paper in pinhole photography with it instead of a mask.
Primitive Technology. Heard of this through lemmy. Pretty nice overall. No talking but you can follow along through the subtitles.
21·2 months agoOk agreed.
consider conservative anarchists
That sounds like an oxymoron. I mean there are anarcho-capitalists but most other anarchists don’t consider them anarchist.
Well maybe I should’ve been more specific. The reason why I mentioned low tech is because it tends to favor localized production and tech that can be easily repaired/modified/created. The pager and walkie talkie attacks came from them not having control over how the tech was produced. If they did have control over that then it would be less likely that this happened and even if it did they would be able to recover quicker.
PS I actually don’t really care about Hezbollah doing this. They suck. It is just in principle it would be better.
I had a feeling that this war would start something like this. Israel has been a testing ground for advanced military technology/ideas for a while. Now that they are engaging in war it was inevitable that techniques or ideas that they have been hiding would eventually get used leading to the world being more dangerous than it was before.
Also as a side note this is why low tech is such a good idea. A small amount of dependencies usually means something is safer in the long run.
such that your model could be “riding along on a human surfboard with human guidance”
Sorry I don’t really understand what you’re saying here.
Good point. I have been a lot more active in tailoring my experience here compared to other social media. I wish there was more tools for deciding whether or not you want to block someone though. Sometimes its not as simple as just looking at their post history. Also as an aside I wish it was possible to block votes as well so the ranking of the content was also able to be personalized.
In the process of doing that admonishing you are inherently changing the kinds of conversations that happen in that space.
Sometimes it okay to take some positions for granted so you can have deeper conversations about specific ideas and that only happens when there is agreement about certain facts.
Constant disagreement paralyzes action and is the same tactic that people use to sterilize social movements.
