Lots of new people out there... #welcome
Here are my #introductions
I'm a nerd from #YYC (Calgary, Canada) into #FOSS software, #Linux and a bit of #BSD among other things. I host my own email and web including the mastodon instance https://coales.co as a hobby.
I work on #python stuff like #flask, #django and #tryton personally, and professionally in the field of #automation #SCADA .
Also big advocate of #openhardware.
I'm kind of libertarian but closer to Chomsky than Rand.

PCMCIA: People Can't Memorize Computer Industry Acronyms
in a nutshell, it's about autonomy. it's about social media autonomy for every person on the planet. all 7.6 billion of us. nobody else telling us to do, what to say, and nobody else forcing us to see things we don't want to see.
this means Pleroma is being built for an entirely new scale of fediverse: one with billions of nodes. it's also why Pleroma supports alternative transports such as TOR and I2P out of the box.
it also is a major differentiator between Pleroma and Mastodon. in the Mastodon model, there's maybe a few million islands which host a few thousand people each. to contrast, in our model, everyone who wants to host their own instance does so. that means everyone can choose to have total social media freedom.
but it's not just social media, we also intend to use the same underlying tech to enable real-time communications with the same capabilities as the social media side of things.
and it's universal: different frontends for different preferences. like Mastodon but don't have the resources to run it? use Pleroma with Mastodon frontend and apps. like GNU social? Pleroma's default frontend was modelled after it. like diaspora* but want to talk to your fediverse friends? use Feather. like the alternative Mastodon frontends like Pinafore and Brutaldon? they work too.
hate spam and harrassment? we have a mostly as yet untapped framework called MRF which can be leveraged to automate moderation of an instance.
want to modify it? drop by #pleroma on freenode and we help with that too.
This is wild: Blender booted off YouTube for refusing to monetise their channel!
https://www.blender.org/media-exposure/youtube-blocks-blender-videos-worldwide/
Now they're testing out their own PeerTube instance: https://twitter.com/blender_org/status/1009077941676986368
And so #Youtube won't allow the #Blender Foundation to share its creative commons licensed videos on the platform if they don't monetize it? Really? https://www.blendernation.com/2018/06/19/blender-foundation-youtube-update/ #b3d

So I got these eye drops and the lid was covered in this horrible anti-tamper wrapper and it took me like 10 minutes with a small knife to remove it and now I don't need the damn drops because my eyes are already moistened with the tears of frustration 😭

There should be an ActivityStreams activity for just screaming.
I just read about a woman in Barrhead saving a squirrel with a massively overgrown tooth by doing "dentistry" on it. I was really disappointed when it wasn't the one person I know who lives in Barrhead and who I could totally see doing something like this.
So @squirrel shows me this and has decided it is the most hilarious thing ever 🙄😆
Awesome Scandinavian entertainment of mass destruction.
