The Internet is a shithole


in reply to Tio

Yeah this whole situation is very relatable, I always try to find new ways to block ads and get rid of these BS as much as possible. But now I feel like soon I'll also have to fight my own devices and OS just to install the apps I want to, now that Google is planning to drop support for 3rd party app stores like f-droid - this shit is honestly insane and I'm sure will kill many adblockers and 3rd party YouTube apps which block ads, along with a bunch of good FOSS projects.....

I use Brave (sue me), but also Youtube Enhancer, which gives back a lot of control, uBlock Origin, and a nifty Youtube extension called 'Remove Youtube Suggestions'. Apart from the odd lockup, I never see anything except the videos I choose any more.
It's making me think I should pay for an account, but $11 is too much. $3 maybe.



Howdy folks! 😁

Just got through the timeline again. Boosted some, as there were a few awesome Halloween πŸŽƒ toots out there!
Boosted some of my Masto and Pixelfed things too...
In less than two hours, I'll be in Skoosh, heading to my friends in Almere. Hope the drive will go well.
I'll need to sleep on a couch for two nights, so I'm very sure my back will be glad to be back in bed on Monday. πŸ˜‰
And Skoosh should have her all-season shoes then. Yay for that too...

It will be a little emotional during my visit at some point, as I will bring the Arwen memorial heart to my friends.

Well, I best pack my bag a bit and then get some food, so that I'll be all good and ready to go when the time comes.

Catch you all later! 😁

Really good documentary! I still think chronically playing video games is bad, but for some people can be a way to cope with problems and/or make friends, have a life...

Mats Steen, a Norwegian gamer, died of a degenerative muscular disease at the age of 25. His parents mourned what they thought had been a lonely and isolated life, when they started receiving messages from online friends around the world.

Yeah I think chronic anything is usually bad but in this case I can understand how it must've been liberating for him. Also solidifies the idea that these virtual interactions are still a way to spend time with each other and form friendships, even if it's online there are still people on the other side of the screen.


Time, Care, and Educational Infrastructure


Much of what sustains digital learning happens quietly and without recognition. Platforms are maintained, content is updated, and learners are supported through invisible acts of care. These forms of labour make education possible, yet they are rarely valued as part of pedagogy.

In my latest post, I explore what might change if we began to see time, care, and maintenance as essential educational practices rather than background work.

Structure de rΓ©partition du travail (WBS) et diagramme de Gantt


La #WBS me permet de visualiser en dΓ©tail ce que nous allons livrer. C'est une dΓ©composition hiΓ©rarchique du #projet en #livrables tangibles. Exemple dans le dΓ©ploiement d’un #ERP pour la gestion multi-sites d’une #industrie, je commence toujours par identifier les blocs fonctionnels Γ  mettre en place β€” gestion des #achats, #comptabilitΓ©, gestion des #stocks, #production, #RH etc. Chacun de ces blocs devient un nΕ“ud de la WBS.

I've just sent another letter to my local MP, to which I will not receive a reply as he has not replied to the last few emails that I have sent!

Subject: Rachel Reeves

Dear MP,

As we are usually told, ignorance of the law is no defence!
We saw that Angela Rayner who took advice about her house purchase had to resign because the advice she was given, which she had asked for, was incorrect!
Yet the chancellor, who proudly boasted about bringing laws in that require landlords to get licences from local councils to protect tenants, did not know that the house that she was letting was covered by such a requirement.
Why is she not resigning or being required to resign?
Is it because one was not a right wing Labour MP and the other was?

Yours Sincerely

John

Blatant miscarriage of justice in the USA

An independent commission of trial monitors led by war crimes prosecutor and former U.S. Ambassador Stephen Rapp observed the proceedings and concluded they fell far below minimal standards of due process, and violated various provisions of domestic and international law

What a good evening we have had, celebrating my wife's 70th birthday at a local restaurant, with my son and daughter, their partners and our grandchildren!
My 75th and our 50th wedding anniversary next year, think we need to start saving three years ago!

Had a bad day :D


in reply to Tio

I am really sorry to hear that man πŸ˜₯ I hope that you'll overcome all of the problems very soon πŸ˜”πŸ™ Please get yourself some rest too!
in reply to Roma

Thank you wonderful friend! Yes I am taking it easy now. Just stay lazy these next days probably.
in reply to Tio

I never expected life in a motorhome to be easy but I'm impressed with how you're managing okay for the most part. And yeah no harm in taking some rest for a few days, you need it. Funny enough I'm also sick now with a cough and all πŸ˜… I hope you recover quickly, and I'm glad you at least have good healthcare in Spain to treat your hernia, wishing you best of luck with your treatment.

@feike
Met die bedoel je @grymt ? PvdD, lees ik in het stuk, want dat is 'the next best thing.'

Overigens denk/hoop ik dat GLPvdA wel weer terug naar links schuift. Ik schat in dat weinig kiezers die daarop stemmen dat specifiek doen vanwege de migratieretoriek - eerder ondanks. Timmermans zal terug moeten komen op die aantallen, al dan niet onder druk van leden.
