EFF opposes the revised PACT Act. It still puts the law’s thumb on the scale of censoring internet users’ speech. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/03/even-changes-revised-pact-act-will-lead-more-online-censorship

@ARG can we get a plug? Were a mutual aid collective of houseless people in so called Portland Or. providing mutual aid and working on an autonomous communal urban campsite. We're working to grow and do as much as possible for our houseless comrades. Twitter @PDXHRC email info@radicalcamping.org is encrypted, FB ask for invite (haven't decided yet if FB is at all wise even as a private group) website coming when we figure out how the internet works. thanks

Haven't finished reading the article, but this quote sums up so much for me:
"We need to design a renewable food system that can feed the global population adequately, fitting livestock into it where we can, rather than designing livestock systems to meet the demand for meat which compromise food access and renewability."

So... Wordpress is now 40% of *all* websites (and probably well north of 60% of all non-static websites). That's 4-6 times more than the next most widely used online platform (which is either Drupal or Joomla depending on who you ask - both are open source,). Free software (Drupal is also Copyleft licensed) rules the Internet by a very wide (probably unassailable) margin.And, amazingly, it's steadily increasing its market share. https://w3techs.com/blog/entry/40_percent_of_the_web_uses_wordpress

PeerTube v3.1 is out!
Better transcoding features, more pleasant interfaces, possibility to easily subscribe to a remote account and... so many great features!
Political labels have become as confusing as punk rock labels. Maybe we need to combine them. VoterA, "I'm a post-hardcore Democrat." VoterB, "I'm a pop-punk Republican."
