@mekkaokereke Understandable. I crossposted because I liked the analogy, not to draw you in. It's cool just to sit outside and laugh at the attrociously bad takes as they twist themselves into pretzels.
Ryan Salame (former CEO of the Bahamian portion of FTX) has submitted his sentencing memo. He's asked for no more than 18 months imprisonment for his charges.
He was charged with conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business and conspiracy to make unlawful political contributions and defraud the Federal Election Commission.
Assuming you're an anarchist or otherwise leftist radical, what radicalized your position?
For me it was a combination of seeing the rampart corruption of the Greek state and the sloth and hypocrisy of the KKE in my own family. Then afterwards it was the alienation of my own wage-slavery.
@Plopp@rockSlayer Not necessarily, althought ADHD people tend to be anti-authoritarian. However ASD people tend to have a very strong sense of justice. But they can still be factually wrong. But often whatever we believe is right, we believe it and push for it strongly. This is why you usually find ASD people with radical beliefs, from Anarchism, to TERFs to Objectivists etc.
@aral Great talk! I thoroughly agree with your take on startups, but I'm curious what is the alternative when someone comes from the working class with no capital and has an idea for an online service which has the potential to sustain them. What other structures can we use to fund some initiatives, because, speaking as someone who's been working on FOSS for the past year, donations don't cut it.

Also the invite for the matrix doesn't work for the me as it says I'm not a member of prerequisite spaces or rooms
HIGHLY recommend Fediblock for user '@MKULTRADiamond' as they're tagging random users and spamming porn with no CW. Receipts attached in the screenshot.
Edit: The whole instance is Freeze Peach. Toss it in the trash.

A couple of weeks ago, the European Broadcasting Union (#EBU) asked us to write a guest article about our experience with #Mastodon / the #Fediverse, explain the basics, and point out the advantages. :mastodon:
Challenge accepted. 👍
So here's the finished post by @lxplm, hot off the #blog press. ⌨️
@dw_innovation Since you're posting mostly articles, do consider (cross-)posting to #lemmy as well, as it's way more set for these sort of posts. You can even post in to lemmy from mastodon by @-ing the community you want.
