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 :/

The anniversary of Roe v. Wade being overturned is today. I hope there will come a day where the right to life is the default, no matter the age, and mothers may not kill an unborn child because the family situation isn't working out (as hard as it may be).

Dedicated sub-page for all my assembly, 512 bytes, games!

We're excited to share a preview of a Framework Laptop with a new CPU architecture today, and it's not the one you probably think it is.
DeepComputingio
is creating the first partner-developed Mainboard, and it's powered by a RISC-V processor!

What's the oldest computer you have in ACTIVE use. It doesn't have to be every day, but not something that's sitting in a drawer you haven't turned on for a decade. Something you use. For me, it's a Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 1, which originally was released in 2012. I'm currently running #Zorin 16.1 
on it, and it's perfectly capable of most of my everyday tasks.

I don't currently own a @frameworkcomputer, but it's stuff like this that's making it feel like I will sooner rather than later. The ability to just change the laptop hardware configuration after the fact is unmatched by literally anybody.

Just reported a #YouTube side-pane ad for a "seductive" see-through swimsuit. We'll see how long it takes for Google to not take it down.

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.
