To most organizations, their primary concern is reach. So they congregate on big #corpocentric #socnets, even when the central corporation running things is actively hostile to their point of view. Then they're butthurt when their accounts are shadowbanned. Years ago, I tried to persuade some local Black churches and ethic-focused organizations to join !GNUsocia… -

I just don't think that--given asymmetrical connection speeds and ISP interference--it is a workable solution, even in most Western countries. When you consider the poor countries where the only Internet service is mobile devices, there's n… -

"Please do not upgrade until we've finished testing our apps."
Too late now, but I have not noticed anything not working. Not that I use the work phone very frequently. -

Two Louisville, #KY, police officers racked up almost 3/4 million "records" of sexual abuse of minors. The PD covered it up. This according to Democracy Now. https://nu.federati.net/url/277874 [www democracynow org]
Obviously victims must have been assaulted multiple times. I don't know the population of L'ville, but I wouldn't think it exceeds 1 million. -

But you're right that OSI approves of some licenses that make you wonder why said licenses exist. -

One of the outside cats brought his pregnant girlfriend home a few months ago. He set her up in the greenhouse, then stayed around, helping her raise the kids. They tag-teamed a neighbor's cat when it tried to attack one of the kittens. In the process, the other outside cats became visitors that come to eat,… -

He said “You can tell Uncle Walt is home" and closed the door again. -

Why is it not figuring out that HQ-IT changed something while it is starting, so it can apply the changes before giving me a usable UI. It isn't like Outlook doesn't take way too long to start already. -

I hope they resolve it. Nobody needs extra tension these days. -
