@ana@starlite.rodeo I know #Goose Value when I see it!

@thisismyglasgow this is the work of yarnpunks, to be certain

@WilliamNB It's true, I decided whereto eat lunch the other day based solely on map info from openstreet map

@perlman The person unjustly ignored could be said to have Cassandra syndrome.

@prosodyim@fosstodon.org "loading mod_mam (globally or directly on a MUC component) will automatically load mod_muc_mam on the MUC component. This means most people (e.g. who have mod_mam loaded globally on their server) can now remove “muc_mam” from modules_enabled in their MUC component configuration. It will be loaded automatically." - thank goodness

@kiwix a nice .zim

@xmpp@fosstodon.org Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. That's the predictable strategy all big corps will take: to use Open Standards as a ladder they can climb up, to popularity and profit. Then kick the ladder out from under them. Gullibility in this regard will only set back Open Standards for a very long time. #XMPP should have pretty much taken over the world by now, but was passed over time and again by the likes of Meta and Google/Alphabet, who usurped it, then betrayed it.

@GeofCox Yay France! Awesome

@matildalove@wetdry.world in case you have the blues, and need to hear some soft, crooning saxophone to lift up your spirits.

@r10s please include an Owl

@dangoodin@infosec.exchange Every other desktop messaging app for #Windows would do well to add this, as #Signal has. And if they don't, they compromise the privacy of all those people who took pains to *not* use Windows (who use said messaging apps, and are contacts with these Windows users). Every alternative operating system - #Linux, #MacOS, #iPadOS, #iOS, etc - where you can run these non-Recall-protected messaging apps... they all get dragged into the privacy quagmire which Windows #Recall creates. Another idea is for these Messaging apps to discontinue Windows support, thereby cutting off the infected, gangrenous limb, with respect to privacy. For example, #Gajim, the #XMPP client for linux, was recently stating they would release a Windows client for 2.2.0. How about just don't, and call it a day, citing Recall being too "radioactive" to privacy to get anywhere near? I'm curious: Can web browser tabs make a DRM-insisting Recall-blockage, like Signal does? I use WhatsApp Web. How can WhatsApp Web - in a browser tab - do what Signal does here?

@angiebaby@mas.to @NireBryce@hachyderm.io from "Lessons from History" by Will and Ariel Durant: "Since wealth is an order and procedure of production and exchange rather than an accumulation of ... goods, and is a trust ... in men and institutions rather than in the intrinsic value of paper money or checks, violent revolutions do not so much redistribute wealth as destroy it. There may be a redivision of the land, but the natural inequality of men soon re-creates an inequality of possessions and privileges, and raises to power a new minority with essentially the same instincts as in the old. The only real revolution is in the enlightenment of the mind and the improvement of character, the only real emancipation is individual, and the only real revolutionists are philosophers and saints."

@kawentzmann@fairmove.net @richpuchalsky@mastodon.social calibre-web is awesome, also kiwix. Recommended. I do a little amateur librarian archiving this way.

@zulip@fosstodon.org "Data imports You can now import data from Slack via a convenient web UI. A new tool lets you import data from Microsoft Teams, including user information, teams, and public message history." Wow, great features! :bd200:

@mitchellh@hachyderm.io well written
