They have NO PROBLEM taking women back to pre 1865. Trust that they will have NO PROBLEM taking Black people back there too.

When they took away women's rights, I kept quiet; I wasn't a woman. When they locked up the LGBTQIA+, I kept quiet; I wasn't LGBTQIA+. When they came for all the non-white people, I kept quiet because I was white. When they came for me, there was no one left to protest.

Elon Musk: AI will be smarter than any human around the end of next year

While Musk says superintelligence is coming soon, one critic says prediction is "batsh*t crazy."

@arstechnica

Who actually listens to Musk?

And why?

He's not an inventor, he's not an engineer, he's not a scientist, he's not clever, he has no decency, no character and no morals.

He's not even a good businessman, he only has money, nothing else!

It would be better to ask some monkey about AI than this moron!

BeAware, to mastodon

Does anyone have a very detailed and comprehensive guide on how to scale up a Mastodon server?

I'm pretty noobish to Linux but I can follow guides if they have commands and stuff. Though, the only guides I could find were very light on the commands for certain steps.

My Sidekiq has been getting backed up every now and then with thousands of jobs. Of course they eventually clear out but I'd like to just mitigate it by adding more processes or whatever because I'm not even using 50% of my server resources🤷‍♂️

Any help would be much appreciated.

PS. My server is currently backed up so if you reply to this, I probably won't see it for a bit.😬

I really don't want to talk people down, but simply setting up Mastodon is not enough, because you should also think about user security. There is a lot of user data that does not belong in other people's hands!

Gossett’s nephew told The Associated Press that the actor died Thursday night in Santa Monica, California. No cause of death was revealed.”

I remember an old Disney Studios movie (1979/1980) "Das schwarze Loch" / The Black Hole with Maximilian Schell, Anthony Perkins, Ernest Borgnine, and others. It was also about a black hole. The production was very expensive, but the movie was not very well received. I liked it, and I was probably the right age for it. 😂

@flexghost

1/ There seems to be a crow's foot in all the possibilities, however, as Trump could still cite a punishment for violating the GAG Order on personal grounds and bias on the part of the judge. The fatal thing is that even though Trump has disobeyed an order, this cannot rule out personal reasons and bias on the part of the judge.

"I want to associate myself with all my colleagues both at MSNBC and at NBC News who have voiced loud and principled objections to our company putting on the payroll someone who hasn't just attacked us as journalists

She’s right. This is dangerous.

Unfortunately, there are only a few people left who are open about what is important, who don't submit to pressure from management and look the other way. 🌻 Rachel Maddow 🌻 has spoken out about what is significant and once again set an example that true journalism does not remain silent and watch everything go down the drain. I wish there were more like her everywhere!

Oh poor him 😂 I will never understand what the problem is? I could show understanding if someone sitting next to me on a flight had eaten lots of garlic, onions and alcohol, but a mask?

kalfatermann,
@kalfatermann@mastodon.social avatar

@peachfront @dannotdaniel

Above all, the mask doesn't do any harm, it protects! I have extreme respiratory problems and still wear a mask. When I notice that I need more air, I move away from others and seek distance, then I breathe without a mask and when the rattling has calmed down, I put it on and return. For me, it is first and foremost a duty to protect others, and only then do I think about myself!

kalfatermann,
@kalfatermann@mastodon.social avatar

@dannotdaniel @peachfront

That's how I see it too, these stuck-in views in all the facets of I do what I want, and it doesn't matter whether others jump over the edge for it. I also often have the impression that they only live according to their tick, that only strength survives and it is a natural selection. This is exactly what brings us straight to fascism.

Exactly the opposite is the case. Put the lie in the foreground, call out and expose the liar and then clearly refute all his lies with facts!

If you always turn tail in front of such loudmouths, you shouldn't be surprised if they eventually dominate you.

Please calm down and slow down two gears, and please don't always put everything on the table, it's about core values and it wasn't a personal attack.

    1/ There is too much money in this war! All the weapons that are needed, all the supplies and everything that will come at some point.

    As long as you can earn more with war than with peace, there will be such wars! We should say: follow the money!

    And then finally publish who is enriching themselves at the expense of all the victims, especially dead babies, children, women, mothers, the weak, the sick and the old.

    I'm willing to bet that they wouldn't even be allowed to wash Trumps floor, because he hates exactly those kinds of supporters. Of course, that doesn't stop him from milking everyone with requests for money.
