@fergusryan do you have a list of journos to follow on mastodon?
@Cheeseness just change your settings and use it left-handed .
@arstechnica Marcel.. sorry i mean “R.Mutt“ woud be proud.
@fergusryan he probably went over his China good / world bad content quota.
@fergusryan posting a map without the 9 dash line, he will need to be reeducated on that🤣
@bullivant @AuldFoggerty
mate it is un-Australian to not chuck a sickie.
@fulelo clearly the Israeli government reserves the right to bomb Palestinians.
@Wuzzy i dont like or use tiktok but for me it is simply about control, one thing you don't want is the CCP to be in control of your social media. tiktok can be bought by a US company and continue as normal.
@verge i was watching this on youtube last year, it is a very Chinese tv production but i enjoyed it. yes 30 eps is long.
So glad to live in the timeline where corporate heads constantly make such big whoopsies that #FreeSoftware automatically becomes viable as a result:
- #Twitter got converted to #X, so #Mastodon and the #ActivityPub alternatives got a truckload of users
- #Reddit locking their API and worsening their mobile offerings, so #Lemmy and #KBin got an unexpected surge
- And now #Unity charging not just per shipped game but PER INDIVIDUAL INSTALLATION, may this be the moment for @godotengine@mastodon.gamedev.place to finally shine?
@cdt Oh China, One country Two rules.

@Wuzzy I love this kind of detail, will definitely play this more with my son.
@gamingonlinux why don't they just implement the 'purchase history' and 'relationship with retailer' to qualify to buy new cards, like Rolex does.
ATTENTION EVERYONE WRINGING THEIR HANDS OVER “#MASTODON ADMINS CAN READ MY DIRECT MESSAGES”: #SysAdmins have *always* been able to read your #email and DMs unless encrypted, including at the big #SocialNetworks and Internet providers. We used to have t-shirts that said, “I READ YOUR EMAIL.”
It’s just hitting now because you got used to places where the admins were kept away in their cubicles and data centers instead of greeting you at the front door.
This week I have been mostly listening to
Burn Wild.

A fascinating meditation on violence, terrorism and the environment.
Alright just sorting out mastodon, trying to find all the good people I follow on twitter.
Also setting up my @pixelfed account and working out what to do with over 20 years of photography, I might take this opportunity to reevaluate and reedit all my photos. If feel like its a fun challenge.
Lastly a change is as good as a holiday.
