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 :/

This strip came out in 1995. I’m afraid of what Calvin’s dad would have to say about technology in 2022. 😬🫠 #CalvinandHobbes

Ever heard this #riddle?
You are a prisoner in a room with 2 doors and 2 guards. One of the doors will lead you to freedom and the other to a hangman – you don't know which is which.
One of the guards always tells the truth and the other always lies. You don't know which does which, although the guards do.
You have to choose and go through one of these doors, but you can only ask one question to one of the guards.
What do you ask to find the door leading to freedom?

Wow, the situation with @Raspberry_Pi@raspberrypi.social *is* pretty bad.
Just see the screenshots, they are treating the community poorly.
I was even blocked sometime earlier for being upset about the softcore(?) pornography they posted earlier.

In case you're wondering why #RaspberryPi is making the rounds:
The makers of the computer that can be made into a near-infinite# of unassuming devices, has hired a man whose expertise is hiding #Surveillance gear inside unassuming devices.
That in itself is understandable (he's a maker), but so is user concern.
Instead of addressing that concern, RasPi started blocking & mocking anybody who questioned the new hire.
...
IOW: RasPi is now Mastodon's first-ever real "Person of the Week"

We have now issued a #fediblock silence against raspberrypi.social
While we've not been great at communicating these in the past, it's something I intend to do more often.
In this case the social media manager on their main account was harassing others and generally being a bad member of the community. We've silenced for now, and will review in 48 hours.
We maintain the full list of sites we have moderated against - https://mastodonapp.uk/about/more

Apple has finally killed its ill-conceived plan to scan photos for CSAM. This is a direct result of work by experts and activists. Speaking up is important and sometimes we win.

@jimbob @scottmatter TBF that's a huge issue for email where it's between private parties and you want to convey ideas that aren't supposed to be seen by anyone else. It works for a Twitter style social media because the whole idea is that everything's public.
Wow, #chatgpt #ai can pretend to be a working Linux computer with Internet and utilities!
