Please be sure to watch this important report on the biggest crises threatening us today.

watch:

As humanity (and yes, that explicitly includes you as part of it), we turned onto the wrong timeline a long time ago. Crises are becoming more frequent and more devastating. Many have already lost everything—including their sense of direction. However, we are all responsible for what our governments are doing, which puts our civilization at risk. Even if we didn’t elect them or aren’t even allowed to vote, they are still acting in our name. Say no, even if everyone else is blindly following along, and don’t actively participate in the destruction of the world.

DISPERSION

Many people ask me why I have accounts on multiple diaspora* pods (I currently have seven). When the project launched in 2010, and then passed into community hands in 2012, I was heavily involved, primarily working on translating the interface. I was then absent for an extended period and am now (as I like to say) coming home.
The truth is, since diaspora* is a federated and decentralized network, each pod’s database grows from user interaction. The more interactions there are between users from different pods, the greater the reach of each published post.
I know it’s part of my obsession and my love for diaspora*, but it’s also a way to quietly improve the network.
So don’t worry if I follow you from multiple accounts. 😀

DISPERSIÓN

Mucha gente me pregunta por qué tengo cuentas en varios pods de diaspora* (actualmente tengo siete). Cuando se lanzó el proyecto en 2010, y luego pasó a manos de la comunidad en 2012, estuve muy involucrado trabajando principalmente en la traducción de la interfaz. Luego estuve ausente un tiempo prolongado y ahora estoy (como me gusta decir) volviendo a casa.
Lo cierto es que, al ser diaspora* una red federada y descentralizada, la base de datos de cada pod se nutre de la interacción entre los usuarios. Cuando mayor cantidad de interacciones haya entre usuarios de distintos pods, mayor será la dispersión de cada post publicado.
Sé que es parte de mi locura y de mi amor por diaspora*, pero también es una forma de mejorar la red de manera silenciosa.
Así que no se preocupen si los sigo desde varias cuentas. 😀

Two years ago I reshared this article but added my version of infographic showing how these tracking apps could work in near future. It was intended mostly as a joke. Mostly. You can see it below.

Well. Here you go: China uses COVID tracking app to block people from joining protests by changing their COVID status to red. Also it is suspected that COVID tracking system was used to identify those who intended to join protests in the first place and then to track and detain those who managed to do it anyway.

Coronavirus: Call for single EU tracking app with data protection | BBC News

Europe's data protection watchdog has called for a single coronavirus app to be used across the EU, instead of every country making its own.
Several countries are developing tracking apps, but privacy advocates warn of the dangers they might pose.
The European Data Protection Supervisor says a single EU app with strong data protection built in is the best solution to the coronavirus pandemic.

"If someone bugs you it is not a crime" - it is very easy concept and we were taught it in kindergarten. It is almost like they don't teach it anymore.

@[url=https://spinster.xyz/users/rcz]Radek Czajka[/url] Thanks for asking. Yes I spent plenty of time with RMS; he stayed in my NYC apartment twice while on speaking tours.

He can, indeed, be "creepy." He commits no crimes, and backs off when told. He's presumably autistic. I understand why many women feel uncomfortable around him.

BUT THAT'S NOT A GODDAMN CRIME.
Richard doesn't understand many common social cues but as far as I can tell has ALWAYS respected stated boundaries.

The whole point of Richard Stallman is he's weird, sometimes "creepy," disagreeable, socially challenged, Asperger's-y, and simultaneously brilliant and perfectly suited to what he does best. That was something that always inspired me about him. Talk about "able-ism" - Stallman himself is pretty severely "challenged" but nonetheless contributes to the benefit of all. His story showed me that you don't have to be nice, or likeable, or agreeable, or socially skilled, to make profound contributions.
