Nice!

"Mastodon is currently considered *the* alternative to Twitter. SURF [the IT cooperative of Dutch education and research] and Universities of the Netherlands are therefore jointly exploring how a Mastodon environment for education and research in the Netherlands can take shape."

@wjmaggos To fairly treat a Nazi is to kick them out. They always have the choice to change their behaviour and quit being a Nazi. It's not the responsibility of anyone else to put up with Nazi-shit.

Or they can go elsewhere. But if they want to play with normal people, they need to behave normally. Nobody prevents them from doing so. They chose not to, so it's up to them.

If you like to hang out with them, go visit their turf, don't bring them here to ruin our space.

Hearing that the 'smart' fridges on a fancy Cambridge research campus aren't opening this morning, and the workers are on the edge of revolt because they can't access the milk.

1. A product is created that people love
2. People adopt it enthusiastically
3. The makers sell it
4. The new owners find ways to make money out of it
5. The investers are not satisfied
6. New functionality to make money is introduced but users hate it
7. Investers are still not satisfied
8. New money making functionality makes the product unusable to the people it was originally built for <--- you are here
9. Product dies

Yes. Heed the warnings. There are many. Everyday.

How bad it gets for America and Americans depends of who in this #PsychoInChief regime says “No F*cking Way!” Trump’s orders. And, who among the DOJ, FBI, ICE #Goonestapo, US Military, state/local legislatures and law enforcement says “Yes Sir!”.

Oh look another UK Prime Minister who won't just come out and dismiss these "small boat crossings" for the artificially overblown "problem" they actually are. A manufactured far right "talking point" that has no significant impact on the UK economy like, say, Brexit did.

The chance to *start* rebuilding trust came in 2021 and would have required a long term course correction. In 2025 we pulled off our masks and revealed pirates were still so the helm.
We've now proven that any agreement signed with the US, any alliances made, etc. have a shelf life of exactly how long that particular leader is still in office and no longer.
No government or people, liberal or conservative, should ever trust us to do anything long-term again.

The bigger the threat, the quicker the TACO.

Oh look Herr Drumpfelstiltskin, Lord Dampnut, the Orange Menace, mr Donald Trump, is manipulating the oil market again.

Is there any real news?

Holy shit did this dude sum up MAGAts absolutely beautifully. 😆

Living in the United States after Donald will be like driving a car that was pulled out of a lake.
