@hund heh, ja det är lite fånigt att hacka upp i småbitar såhär.
Samtidigt finns någon slags fördel, i alla fall ibland, i att tvinga sig att hålla det kort. Eller så är det bara vad jag intalar mig själv för att inte behöva byta. 🙂
Menar du att gränsen är 5000 tecken på gotosocial.linuxkompis.se ?
@bragefuglseth oh I understand that, the advisory board only provide "advice".
But why would GNOME want advice from Google? It's like the sheep getting advice from the lion on how to stay safe.
Even if we assume that there is no real influence (like lobbyists have to influence over political decisions?) it makes GNOME look ridiculous especially when privacy issues are discussed. Zero credibility.
Do I need to explain why it looks bad for GNOME to be associated with Google?
@sonny GNOME first of all needs to kick out Google from its "Advisory Board", if GNOME wants any credibility regarding privacy issues. https://wiki.gnome.org/AdvisoryBoard
Having Google there looks really, really bad. It makes me sick thinking about the kind of "advice" Google can provide.
How does GNOME leadership not see how inappropriate that is?
Hi, great to see you here on mastodon!
I listened to many MoneroTalk episodes, appreciate them a lot, very interesting stuff.
I think it would be good to link to https://www.monerotalk.live/ here also, for those (like me) who want to avoid youtube.

@davbjo bra förslag men jag tycker nog att 50 miljoner kundre räcka. Kan kompensera det med att man får ett ännu finare diplom, kanske med guldkant och ett personligt grattis och underskift av kungen eller Greta eller nån.
@samuel Karlstad University is on the list!

So I guess the answer would be that to persuade someone, instead of trying to tell them how things are, one should try to nudge them into a situation where they are likely to discover things for themselves.
Not sure exactly how, but something like that, I think.
It's like Morpheus says to Neo in the movie:
"Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself."

@lispi314 it's frustrating but I think somehow this is the kind of thing that you cannot be told by someone else, instead you must discover it for yourself in some way.
I have tried to remember how it was for me personally, but I cannot pinpoint when I started understanding and caring about these things. But I'm pretty sure it was not that somebody told me, it was more like I started to think about things on my own.
