What do you call the #Resonate #Stream2Own payment system?

In Resonate the first time you listen to a song you pay 0.02$. The next time 0.04$. Until the 9th time, you have paid a combined of around 1$, and you can then listen to track as many times as you want with no extra pay.

Quadranic pricing?
Exponential pricing?

In the 1970s, a group called NARMIC supported the movement against the #Vietnam war with research such as:

- the top 100 defense contractors making the war possible;

- a slideshow showing the automated weapons systems used, and their horrific impact.

LittleSis (which maintains a power research database of its own) is profiling this important work, so that it can inform and inspire #opendata activists today:

Who's active on #Matrix? We should work together! I'm putting together a group for positive channels (as an alternative to some of the main channels run by fascist-enablers). Still working on a CoC and whatnot. #matrixorg

I'm searching for an open-source #ebook reader app for #Android, to replace the Kindle app. I don't really care what formats it supports, so long as #Calibre can convert to them.

But I do want full screen, night mode, font size/color control, etc. Booky McBookface is off to a good start, but not there yet.

There doesn't appear to be much else on #FDroid?

The feature set of GNUNet and IPFS does not map features one-to-one, GNUNet is more oriented towards resource sharing, IPFS is more oriented towards document persistence.

So freedom, in that regard, if it's not really read/write in the real world and actually-existing networks, it's a relative matter.

@gc Filecoin and IPFS are by Protocol Labs, a VC-funded startup. All the IPFS code is FOSS, so you can take it and create a separate network that doesn't interact/federate with the capitalist network.

The IPFS code (written largely Go and Javascript) is a lot more portable and easier to understand and modify than GNUNet, which is written in C++ and is mostly for Linux/UNIX only.

@gc

@strypey

I mean literally their own instance. Agent-centric architecture. You are always communicating from your own AP.

Groups can be agents, too, and have their own AP, which you can federate with.

"Your own AP" could be hosted by somebody else, but you are always you in the whole fediverse, if you want to be. And you can move your own AP to a different host or host it yourself if you want.

"we're not just trying to build cooperatives for cooperatives' sake. We're trying to build vehicles, very explicitly and very intentionally, of social transformation."

Nice Q&A with Kali Akuno of Cooperation Jackson.

I made a blogroll on the Wiki. Add your blog or comment/toot me it and I'll add it.

https://wiki.social.coop/Blogroll

Added few people who first popped to my mind who I know have a blog ( @ntnsndr , @kusti , @Iwan_Doherty & @richdecibels ).

Anyone can toot me their blog and I'll add them.

The order of the blogs should be changed regularly using lottery, so that the people who happened to pop into my mind first don't get an unfair advantage by being first in the list.

The Mastodon bridge tool has got a facelift! https://bridge.joinmastodon.org/

You can sign in with Twitter and Mastodon to find Twitter friends in the fediverse. You can also send it to your Twitter friends, as it will show them their friends on Mastodon and point them to where they could make an account!

New thing on mastodon.social: You can make invite links personal so the person who signs up using the invite automatically follows you

Thinking about #mastodon and building dual power to contest the corporate giants.

Are there any exemplar free and open source software projects that publish lifecycle artifacts other than code?

(e.g. specifications, use cases, user stories, architecture diagrams, test plans, this kind of thing.)
