This is so absolutely rich in resources. I recommend anyone who is interested, or anyone who might think it's absolutely batty for anyone to support the DPRK, have a look. It does only work on Chromium-based browsers, unfortunately.

Was hired kind of on the side by a friend to set up a Nextcloud instance on this old server. He had Windows Server on it. I did offer to install Debian instead, but he wanted to keep Windows, to which I said, fine, I know Powershell, I know how to use Windows, it's whatever.

It wasn't whatever […]

A couple years ago, I had someone in the movement become extremely indignant at me for expecting them to know and care about encrypted platforms. I had to walk back and apologize.

But now, honestly? No. I kind of regret that, now, as they turned out to be a person who cared more about larping a […]

There also is just a lot of misinformation out there. I've seen articles claiming that Deepseek is open source, and I've seen its dickriders claiming the same thing, but if you look around (or even ask Deepseek itself) it is quite clearly not open source, and in fact the way its model works is […]

I've been mucking more with Deepseek since getting to better know what is, in my mind, the appropriate use of it as a tool. That is, not as a generative tool, but as a critical one — using it as a proofreader, not a writer. An audience member, not a creator.

Beyond the slop that comes from […]

You have hands to do nice things with. So do nice things. Also, don't forget to teach your rat to chew holes in the tyres of police cars. #rat #rodent #acab #allcopsarebastards #activism #pride #queer #defundthepolice #anarchism

Visual instructions on why we have hands:
- To pat a rat
- To hold a rat
- To celebrate Pride with rat
- To remind rat of our roots (by instructing it to destroy a police car)

Being a furry socialist that uses Linux and Mastodon is rough since everyone shits on the things you love without having any experience with it because they're just uncritically regurgitating wrong information they heard from other people regurgitating wrong information.
