Hello, I just joined Friendica on social.trom.tf and I'm a little confused.
I thought Friendica was part of Activity Hub but under Protocols I don't see Activity Hub. and when I type a Mastodon account in Search eg my own: ,@Fiona Gregory it doesn't find it.
Should I be able to follow a Mastodon account on Friendica?
Yes Friendica uses the activitypub and more. It is compatible to pretty much any network. What you see there is a filter in case you want to filter the posts based on the protocol ;)
Thanks, Tio! I just tried again to search and follow my Mastodon account, and lo and behold, it now worked and "Activity Pub" has shown up in the list of Protocols 😊
En Italie, le 25 avril commémore la « Festa della Liberazione » en mémoire de ce jour de 1945, où Milan, capitale de la Résistance, fut reprise par les partisans et libérée du joug nazi-fasciste. Retour sur le contexte qui a vu naître les groupes résistants qui ont combattu Mussolini.
Le contexte d’après-guerre et de crise en Italie crée des conditions propices à la naissance du fascisme. Mussolini instaure un régime dictatorial dès 1925. En 1940, l’Italie est l’alliée de l’Allemagne dans la seconde guerre mondiale. Elle mène une « guerre parallèle » ponctuée d’échecs.

Le contexte d’après-guerre et de crise en Italie crée des conditions propices à la naissance du fascisme. Mussolini instaure un régime dictatorial dès 1925. En 1940, l’Italie est l’alliée de l’Allemagne dans la seconde guerre mondiale. Elle mène une « guerre parallèle » ponctuée d’échecs.
Au printemps 1943, une guerre civile sanglante débute. D’un côté, les milices du régime fasciste, aidées des SS et de la Gestapo, de l’autre les groupes de partisans communistes et antifascistes.
Après la défaite des armées italo-allemandes en Tunisie et le débarquement des Alliés en Sicile, le roi, l’ancienne classe dirigeante et les dirigeants fascistes modérés entraînent la destitution et l’arrestation de Mussolini le 25 juillet. Il nomme Badoglio au poste de président du Conseil des ministres. L’armistice est conclue le 3 septembre entre le gouvernement du royaume d’Italie et les forces alliées. Le 13 octobre, le royaume d’Italie déclare la guerre à l’Allemagne.
Parallèlement, libéré par les allemands, Mussolini fonde un nouvel État fasciste fantoche au Nord de la péninsule en septembre : la République sociale italienne (RSI). L’Italie est coupée en deux, envahie et contrôlée par les allemands au Nord et au centre, et prise par les alliés au Sud.
De la résistance partisane à la libération
Naples se soulève la première, fin septembre 1943. C’est la seule grande ville à se libérer grâce à un soulèvement populaire, sans l’aide des Alliés.
Un mouvement partisan naît et se développe dans tout le pays, formant des groupes partisans de tailles et de tendances politiques diverses. Le Comité de libération nationale (CLN) est créé le 9 septembre 1943 par une coalition de plusieurs partis politiques. Se créent jusqu’à fin 1944 dans les territoires libérés du Nord de nombreuses Républiques partisanes éphémères, reprises par les allemands et réintégrées à la RSI.
Le 19 avril 1945, le CLN appelle à l’insurrection pour amener les forces nazies et fascistes à « se rendre ou périr ». Les partisanes et partisans d’Italie ainsi que les troupes alliées libèrent Bologne le 21 avril, Parme et Reggio Emilia le 24, Milan, Turin et Gênes le 25. Ce 25 avril, alors qu’il tente de fuir, Mussolini est arrêté et exécuté avec sa maîtresse Clara Petacci.
Depuis le gouvernement Berlusconi en 1994, des députés de droite proposent régulièrement la suppression de la fête du 25 avril. Berlusconi a lui-même refusé en 2004 de participer aux cérémonies officielles commémorant la libération du pays.
La résistance contre le fascisme est toujours d’actualité. Plus qu’une simple célébration institutionnelle, ce jour du 25 avril doit nous rappeler l’importance de la lutte contre les violences de l’État, du patriarcat et du capitalisme. Nous relaierons donc prochainement dans ces pages l’appel de nos camarades italiens d’Alternativa libertaria.

Sorry to shock everyone but no, you do not get a cold from the AC....you do not get it from cold air, air current, drinking cold water, snow, or any of these "cold" things. It is unfortunate that it is called "cold". People are confused by that I guess.
I keep on hearing more and more people complaining that they got a cold from the AC and I want to rip my head off :D. The "cold" is a virus infection. Period.
So no, there is no evidence that cold temperatures decrease your immune system's ability to cop with a viral infection, unless you may have hypothermia and then you have more problems than the virus.
I thought this is a myth only found in Romania, where I am from originally, but I've met people from Belgium to South America who believe this.
In general, yes, but it's one of those things that started out based on an empirically true statement - it's superstition now because something was done about it, though not everybody needs hypothermia to push their immune response over an edge making the difference between "happens to be fighting off the cold virus" and "has symptoms" either - there's a lot of ways to find yourself a bit dysregulated.

Islamophobie dans le foot : le RN & la FFF contre les femmes
Début octobre 2023, après un match de foot de l’équipe féminine du club Chambéry sport 73 durant lequel certaines joueuses portaient le hijab, l’extrême droite s’est déchaînée sur les réseaux sociaux, appelant à la suppression des subventions du club.
Tout part d’une situation banale : dans un club amateur qui ne comportait pas d’équipe féminine, une « bande de copines », comme les décrit le président du club, prennent l’initiative de monter une équipe de football.

Islamophobie dans le foot : le RN & la FFF contre les femmes
Début octobre 2023, après un match de foot de l’équipe féminine du club Chambéry sport 73 durant lequel certaines joueuses portaient le hijab, l’extrême droite s’est déchaînée sur les réseaux sociaux, appelant à la suppression des subventions du club.
Tout part d’une situation banale : dans un club amateur qui ne comportait pas d’équipe féminine, une « bande de copines », comme les décrit le président du club, prennent l’initiative de monter une équipe de football. Elle souhaite naturellement jouer contre d’autres équipes. Certaines portent le hijab, mais ne s’en inquiètent pas, ayant vu que la FIFA en autorisait le port lors des matchs. Tout se passe bien, l’équipe perd d’un honorable 19-0. Tout aurait du en rester là.
Mais quelques jours plus tard, Rémi Garnier, petit fasciste professionnel élu au conseil régional sous l’étiquette Rassemblement national, publie un communiqué s’indignant de la possibilité que des femmes s’habillent librement. Qualifiant ce match de « symbole de l’entrisme islamiste dans le sport », et prétendant défendre la « dignité des femmes », ce petit nazillon de bac à sable étale les obsessions islamophobes du RN et les passions tristes de l’extrême droite dans son communiqué, provoquant une vague de cyberharcèlement du club et des joueuses.
L’attaque s’appuie sur le règlement de la Fédération française de football (FFF), qui interdit le port de « tout signe ou tenue manifestant ostensiblement une appartenance politique, philosophique, religieuse ou syndicale », une règle dont l’application cible en réalité en large majorité les femmes musulmanes. Et une particularité française, qu’il faut relier à la flambée des idées islamophobes ces dernières décennies, et à l’histoire coloniale du pays. Embarquée dans une fièvre islamophobe, la FFF s’illustre ces dernières années sur le sujet : elle a récemment décider d’interdire le port de collants et de casques, sous le prétexte de craindre un « détournement » par des pratiquantes de l’islam [1]. La fédération préconise aussi d’interdire les pause visant à boire et à manger lorsque la rupture du jeune du ramadan survient pendant un match [2].
À Paris, le collectifs Les Hidjabeuses s’est créé en 2020 pour revendiquer le droit des sportives de s’habiller comme elles le souhaite. Elles ont notamment saisi le Conseil d’État au sujet du règlement de la FFF concernant sont règlement sur les signes ostentatoires. Mais celui ci à rejeté leur requête, en allant ainsi à l’encontre des préconisations de son propre rapporteur public, qui préconisé l’abrogation de cette règle [3].
Retour à Chambéry, où les fulminations islamophobes de la FFF pourraient avoir des conséquences funestes. Dans son communiqué, le RN appel en effet à la suppression des subventions du club par le conseil régional, présidé par le très droitier Laurent Wauquiez, prompt à supprimer des financements à tout va. Une menace qui place le club dans une situation périlleuse, ses 220 licencié·es comptant sur cet argent pour permettre au club de fonctionner. Il s’agirait d’une véritable punition collective sous un prétexte profondément raciste. Depuis cette affaire, l’équipe féminine s’est quant à elle retiré des compétitions, préférant continuer de s’entraîner en s’habillant comme elles le souhaitent, quitte à sacrifier leur participation au championnat. Un exemple de plus de l’effet concret des politiques islamophobes qui prétendent défendre les droits de femme : les exclure des espace publics.

This is so confusing. There are many free things where you are not "the product". We make many, see tromsite.com and trom.tf.
I wish people would stop saying this about google and the like. There is a simple and to the point way of describing these "free" services. They are TRADE-BASED. You have to trade something to them, in order to use their services.
In the same way that when you go to a supermarket you have to trade your currency for what you grab from it, you have to trade your attention (ads) or data to Google when you go on their platform. Currency, attention, data.

We live in a TRADE-BASED society where pretty much everything is trade-based. Money is just a currency we invented, but trades go without currency as well.
We spent more than a decade trying to shed some light on this confusion.
I got your message but I think the last of goal of so much companies is sell to get money even if we mock the word money with trade at the end they need this trade to survive or don't sacrifice privileges.
It is true that most trades translate into "money" in today's society. But increasingly cryptocurrencies are getting more popular. However the focus should be on trade else we lose sight with whats happening online where data ant attention are traded without people realizing it.
The incentive is bad overall, from small to big companies, or individuals. Yes most have to trade to survive, and that is very bad and we should change this situation; it is also true that google and the like are not trading in order to survive, but to thrive in an unequal and ass backwards society.
Totally agree, Until the current situation that most of the companies use, for example, tracking methods to get your information only for improve the "sell experience for company". It's good saying "if it's free, you are the product" because if we don't keep alert or we pretend that they aren't the majority, we can't protect us of this kind of abuse
The entire premise of my original post is that it is not good saying "if it's free, you are the product" since for one it makes it seem like whatever is "free" is not to be trusted, and second it gives google and the like approval for using the word "free" for their trade-based services.
Google is trade-based. Facebook is trade-based. Nextcloud is trade-free. Friendica is trade-free.
I agree if it's free is not trusted, until the user figures out that is trust. I agree that not all the companies or products are evil or want to abuse to get money but the majority do it. Also there are thousands of user that don't know about the "trade" it's not a real trade if you don't know if it's a "trade"
Capitalism is a manifestation of trade, and ill defined for that matter.
As for "it's not trade if it's coerced" - we are mostly coerced to trade nowadays. Want food? Trade your time, energy, skills to someone else, get a currency, go trade it for food. Food is essential yet you have to trade for it, you have no other choice. And so it goes for pretty much anything.
You run a business selling food, you have little choice, you have to pay your rent. I need food. I work, make money, then buy food from you. We were both coerced into this game, now who is stealing from who in his situation?
We can have endless debates as to what we mean by trade, but I go with what is generally understood - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade
capitalism is global. there is no part of human society than capitalism doesn't touch.
no one forced anyone to hoard food for profit. that's a choice. no one forced anyone to exploit workers by paying them wages. that is also a choice. no one forced anyone to enclose the commons and demand rent. that was also a choice.
writing a book doesn't mean it isn't full of nonsense. Hitler wrote a book too, as did Ayn Rand, but neither of these people had any ideas worth considering nor do they make any sense.
The book that I wrote is digitally available for everyone and every claim is sourced where I claim it. Click and see.
That being said, these isms are a lot of mushy ideas. Also the theory of these ideas can be widely different from their implementation.
And by "no one forced anyone to do this or that", I do not know what you are saying. Of course so many people are forced by others or circumstances. All choices are influenced by external factors: needs, efficiency, fear, etc..
If not, then do yourself a favor and research. I was 100% sure that after billions of people made posts and videos, that people will believe that Google is a goddamn evil corporation. You can't trust it with your data unless you're insane and you want Google to know everything about you.
Don't take my word for it - do yourself a favor and research!
P.S. Hope that will cure from sickness a little thing in your brain, named "logic". And your brain itself too.
@Tio In your original post, you're justifying corporations violating users's privacy rights without their consent. You're acting like as if it was a rule you have to accept and is impossible to live without it.
Back in 1830s,everyone lived without big tech and guess what? They survived. Surprising, right???
Well now, has anything changed? Nope, it didn't.
In your original post, you were complaining about that it's confusing to see people ranting about Google whenever you're product or not, which caused you to write this big post.
My previous reply was expected for you to reduce that confusion a bit. Does it all makes sense now?
The way big tech (like Google, Meta) do their business today, like making money, is unlawful and consentless. Your post is written as if it was okay to play that way business while in real life its not okay.
Do yourself a favor and research, like I said previously.
You certainly misunderstood. I did not justify what they are doing, I said what they do is not free to begin with, it is trade-based. This cuts the confusion when people think google and the like are free, and when some say "you are the product". Better say google is trade-based.
I dedicated the past 10+ years showcasing how this is fucked up. How trade is the origin of most problems.
@Tio Dude. You've read my post partially, and while you did provided some good response, which I appreciate, hmm, I still gonna say that you did justified what big tech are doing.

Thats exactly what I argue there are many trade-free things out there, google aint one. Nor is any that forces you to trade your attention (ads) or data. They are trade-based. BAD
btw learn how to use quotes in friendica.....else it is very confusing....
@CyborgHT When there is no ads and no tracking, you arn't the product. Why not install #Yunohost at home or in a VPS? It's easy to install. Yunohost.org And there is many apps available by one click.
And, you can look at #Chatons where there a lot of services, sometimes free of charge. chatons.org
@LautreG OK, I agree with you, but disagree with original author. Yes Google isn't privacy-friendly. That has been proved in many cases, articles and videos. Yet people refuse to believe this.
