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 :/

Why don't we have standard Terms of Service that are used and reused everywhere?
I'm imagining a small number of flavors of ToS, not owned by the service providers that have us click through, but owned by trusted nonprofits and public service agencies and reused by service providers.
I'm thinking of Creative Commons-like agreements, but business agreements about providing a service, not just about licensing creative works.
Then, have the company that's implementing it customize the ToS by filling in a few fields at the start: their corporate name and address, how to contact their ombudsman, list of officers, something like that.

Interesting, the terms of use that #Respondus #LockDownBrowser shows you before a test is different from the one on their website. The website one is last updated on January 2022, and the one that LockDown Browser shows you is March 2024. Notably the latest one has an #arbitration section and the older one doesn't.
Second time trying to set up a Matrix chat server, and geez what a bad experience. The job isn't done until documentation is written.... Maybe I somehow missed their server documentation? I couldn't find any documentation for setting up a server, on https://matrix.org/. Maybe they don't have an implementation. I thought they made Synapse.

BTW. There's a sale right now and the phone is available for $599: https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-5/
What if all this plugging in and unplugging from people has worn off the gold plating?
I don't think we were designed to enter and leave communities and homes as often as we do.
I think we weren't made to travel around so often, and that "small towns" were the original idea
Just a heads-up: #ValnetInc is a company that claims to acquire and manage multiple publishing and internet-based businesses, including journalistic websites like #HowToGeek, #AndroidPolice, and #MakeUseOf.

If Jesus forgives me, then I have no business not forgiving myself.
@mike @MobileOak Wouldn't spd-say or espeak work? Spd-say is pre-installed on a lot of Linux systems.
Sometimes taking a picture of people having a good time "captures the moment", in the sense that it gets taken into the photo and you don't get it back....
OK that's rather melancholic. Pics are often nice.

@briankrebs Would probably shorten the length of gunman sprees in schools. Would also make it easier for gunmen to find a gun in schools. Hopefully it will save more lives than it takes away.

A roundup of news coverage featuring the upcoming entry of #Ghost and #Buttondown to the #Fediverse:
@quillmatiq:
Ghost choosing to not go the walled-garden route is now tapping into what will be the largest sharing network available on the internet.
@reckless1280:
At this point I’m not sure any social platform that launches without an eye towards federation stands a chance, really.
@Gargron:
This is what momentum looks like.

Something nice about being around other people is that you can see what features of yourself are common and which are unique.
@CM30 Unused game content is always so fascinating to me.
I assume you know about The Cutting Room Floor? https://tcrf.net/
