Hello there!
I boost a lot of posts, but I have a few things to say every now and then.
I am largely fine with boosting posts from people I disagree with even on significant, dividing issues. I usually don't, however, if they actively advocate for these ideas... so it goes :/

Friendly reminder of this dope share-to-mastodon button from my friend @micahilbery. It’s pretty, it’s simple, and it’s customizable. :)
No, when you quit, you guarantee a 'You Lose'. When you continue, you guarantee a chance. And everyone is worth a chance.
The amount of times I have to drop to a system console to fix my session is really getting to me. That, and the amount of glitches I have to deal with.
Does a Linux distribution exist that's isn't so buggy? It is grating to have to always deal with inconsistent, mediocre software. Nothing is perfect, I know, but I want to know which #distro "just works" the most.
Any pointers?

Anyone remember Vine?
Our next experiment is called Loops and we can't wait to release the beta.

What is the Fediverse? What does federation mean?

@Aslanmane That 2nd picture ("A morning beach campground"[...]) is very nice.
@citrus_marine Hey, well I don't know if I have broken past 5,000,000 yet 🙃
I rarely play #SmashBros. This summer I want to "get good" 😉

The countdown comes to an end! A brand new #pixelart time-lapse featuring Revali and Teba is now available!

And I could do with hashtag following; last I checked, not a thing
@fu @Big_Diggity I just wish they'll fix it up. It is buggy and out of date.
@Big_Diggity @big_diggity It's the oldest distro still alive! Last I heard.
No, social.librem.one runs Mastodon, just a really out-of-date Mastodon version last I checked. I have been wanting to switch, but I want to keep my posts. And I want a server that is both non- mega leftist and not blocked by most leftist servers. I like being able to connect with many servers 😄
@big_diggity Slackware was an adventure.
@ozone89 I don't remember where I saw it — I think it may have been in a restoration video by #the8bitguy.

Intel investigating leak of Intel Boot Guard private keys after MSI breach
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd there goes a UEFI security setback.
Intel's Boot Guard has been made effectively useless. With the key leak, threat actors can sign malicious firmware so it's "valid."
@TheAlexHernandez Ohmygosh does everything have to 'collect data'!?
@ozone89 @NanoRaptor That was a thing, at least in one instance. There was an upgrade for a certain old computer where you would stack a chip to get support for both uppercase & lowercase letters instead of just one of them (uppercase probably).
@Gargron
@fdroidorg I was thinking about why this post showed up in my timeline. Did you boost your own reply? Then I remembered that if someone I follow replies to someone else I follow, I see the post. Now I've learned something new about that #Mastodon design decision: it is a good way to broudcast something to a particular group, without making *all* your followers have to see it. And all while staying algorithm-free. Cool!
