No, de decisively don’t “need to work with the tools we have”. We have to teach our students the dangers if that abomination and ways to disrupt, hamper, poison and destroy this stuff.

Bluesky is in its essence a corpo methadone for the Twitter addicts… its not freedom, its a packaged, tailored simulacrum of it.

THAT is a story i would be very curious to hear… but if you look at the whole stuff that is build in some huts or caves in the middle east, lets just say i wouldn’t rule it out.

You can build a weapon with common tools you find in any metal workshop.

Story time:

Right after the war my grandfather - a locksmith by profession - build a cap and ball revolver in his workshop just with the tools he had and scrap metal.

No, you need anorher job next month

I wouldn’t use the term “offended”… I think “amused” is better fitting, the same I would feel about a conflict in the “Kleingartenverein”

I personaly am not forced to use Windows, quiet on the contrary - at the moment i am daily driving Haiku. But there is always this odd person in the extended family that cannot switch because of an pigeon breeding management software or some obscure program used for some niche interest… so its nice to have a roadmap to let them keep using an system that keeps getting updated.

If you count fighting with righteous fury in a little niche corner of the Fediverse which in itself is also a pretty tiny niche corner of the net everything other than a petty war… well, i guess everybody needs a hobby.

Its funny… regardless if its the Web of old, IRC channels, a real life small gardening commune (Kleingartenverein) or now here on the Fediverse - there will always be petty wars to be fought. Perhaps its part of the “human experience”, who knows…

Well, as an addition to all the calls for switching to Linux:

Its completely doable to install Windows 11 on unsupported Hardware, using an official ISO from Microsoft and letting the Rufus imager apply a few changes and Win 11 should run on hardware that is about 10 years old or a bit older (i think i have heard Microsoft has removed support for the Core2 generation of CPUs). If you want to get a really clean install the best tool is - i think - tiny11builder which cleans up an official ISO and makes the whole experience of running this OS on older hardware way more pleasant.

Currently i have a test system (a laptop) with an Celeron N3010 and 4 GB RAM on my desk at work running Windows 11 modified by tiny11builder and it is - while not exactly fast - absolutely useable for classical office tasks.

If the world is shit we need to make it better. If “bombarding medical professionals with opinions” stops them in being accomplices in the mutilatiion of children it makes the world better.

I will visit America again… if Trump and his cronies are either in jail or dancing at the end of a rope, gun control is established and a new political system is implemented. Until this point? I rather visit North Korea.

To hell with the USA!

To hell with “AI”!
