    Love how this person applying for funding for a #commons project put it: "I'm applying in order to get relief from the pressures of economic self-preservation so I can devote my time to taking the final steps towards making this work for me, and my networks of people, and by extension everyone else on the planet."

    @ntnsndr Because, as Heraclitus reminded us quite a while back, the reason we can't step into the same river twice is partly that we ourselves have changed.

    @ntnsndr Lubuntu. The UI may look dated, but you can customize it slightly, and it is very light and doesn't hog resources for shadows, animations, etc

    @KevinCarson1 Kevin, can you point me towards what you've written so far on the PPL vs. assorted Creative Commons licenses vs. the public domain? What's your view of the critique of open licenses allowing for capitalist expropriation?

    It's sad how desktop environments always look dated after a few years. Why cant we create more timeless ones?

    Actually hiring fake friends/family is a real thing in Japan though. Seems to be about meeting more traditional expectations though rather than the shallow social media charade.

    It downloads who knows what code and injects it into the built product:

    https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/blob/67cd9258fd0ed429ddc626d488d48bd65c2f2283/build/lib/extensions.ts#L108

    Meaning, the source code in the git repo isn't the only thing that your "custom built" VSCode instance will be running.

    Shady Microsoft doing shady things.

    Something tells me this will blow up in their user's faces. #vscode

    Upon installing #VSCode ("insiders edition", their nightly build), it:

    - Immediately opened my web browser without my permission and instantly loaded a URL with various parameters (what did it just send to Microsoft?!)

    - Tried to connect to at least 4 different domains, including one for "bing search results" when I tried searching *inside the text editor*

    - Still continued to connect to 3 domains, including Bing search, after I disabled all "telemetry" settings

    Not worth it.

    Hey, friends. How have you been feeling about Mastodon lately? ❤ I am curious to compare my current experience. I'll check back in the morning. 🙂

    Some options on #LifeFaker

    (Fortunately, this isn't a real service but rather a mental health awareness campaign).

    Genius: http://lifefaker.com

    Lifefaker is the world’s first online life faking service. Instead of going through the hassle of living a perfect life, now you can just get the photos to post on #socialmedia.

    "Clear History"? Why not #DeleteFacebook instead

    via @georgia @ @fsf

    "Though they want you to believe they care about protecting your privacy, unless Facebook decides to completely overhaul itself using exclusively free software and decentralize, allowing people to run federated nodes of that software on their own computers, nobody should expect to go untracked."

    I'm in Athens Greece, best I've got is 35/5 with VDSL. Was recently offered an upgrade to "fiber" but found it was false advertising and they were trying to just sell me more VDSL at higher price (with only a couple megs more bandwidth). :(

    @gemlog

    how is that a better deal? their lowest offer is at €7. the whole point of this 'Appetizer' offer is so people can experience having their own server running their own cloud apps at the lowest possible price (€3).

    anyway, I'm very jealous about your fibre!
