fediverse platform for a schools community network

I am looking to host a fediverse platform for a community of non-tech people. These people use mostly ig and some still fb. These people are from a network of schools which are ideologically aligned with libre software and decentralisation. It will include adults and also teenagers, who mostly use IG. This is part of a plan of a...

It’s because you mentioned Facebook, I thought Friendica would be a good like for like.

This is massive news, because Germany are super entrenched in coal.

You could be right. My knowledge comes from a YouTube rabbit hole I went down a while back.

What? Are you Keir Starmer? Starmer’s record at the CPS speaks for itself in ethic communities. Why is that Mister Starmer? Are you going to tell everyone that they’re not ethnic enough or haven’t done enough Mister Starmer? You’re weird Mister Starmer. Go away. Learn how to have discussions without ad hominem attacks.

Also try doing some research, I am neither the first nor last to question Starmer’s commitment to racial equality: voice-online.co.uk/…/keir-starmer-doesnt-care-abo…

Benefit what right? See, this is what I hate about discussing politics with your mother fuckers with your head up your own arse. Corbyn, for what it’s worth, had policies that attempted to help people and Starmer didn’t keep any of them, instead opting for “electable policies” which fall firmly in the sphere of Conservative politics. I shouldn’t have to justify my race to talk about the failings Starmer has had to minority communities. While Starmer was happy to speak up against antisemitism, he didn’t speak up against Johnson’s anti-black rhetoric or the racism that was directed at Diane Abbott. You wouldn’t dare say to a Jewish person, what have you done for the Jewish community if they called into question someone’s record on antisemitism, so what gives you the right to say that bullshit to me. You’re fucked in the head!

Both will change the landscape of the fediverse, it’s just a matter of seeing if for the better. I’m mostly against private communities because I want everyone to interact, but they can help a lot for things like moderation coordination.

Yep

Morgan Freeman Explains To Keanu Reeves Why We Don't Have Free Energy - Chain Reaction (1996) - YouTube (youtube.com)

I guess the conversation I would like to have is, are we ready? Do you think we have had advancements withheld and held back and is the economy more important than the planet? Personally I feel like everything comes back to monetary wealth getting in the way of global happiness. Star Trek really got that right.

People keep coming back to the free energy discussion and I don’t know why, because it’s moot.

The question isn’t is there a secret hoard of free energy.

The question is, are we ready? When you (you being me) talk about do we believe we’ve had things held back, the answer is of course. But not in terms of technology, but in terms of restraints.

If you gave every house in your country a battery, solar panels, a rooftop wind turbine and a ground source heat pump, you could revolutionize the grid requirements. But that’s expensive and quickly people would find a way to fleece the average person of their new found financial wiggle room. So again, it comes down to, how can we make it so money doesn’t matter?

Someone intent a holodeck so I can experience a world without monetary wealth.

WTF? You know this is the Internet right? What’s with these high quality posts you keep casually dropping?

a lower power bill for regular people

Isn’t that great for the local economy though? In theory. If people resist hoarding and spend, the money accumulated through taxes and can pay for local improvements.

Profit incentive always does find a way in capitalism. Similar to the scenario of UBI, where without rent control, it is likely that landlords would try to gobble up most of that free money. I’m not sure how much of that type of leeching would happen if people didn’t have to pay their power bills, probably not quite as much as it would be with UBI.

So really, we need legislation to save normal people from rich people, otherwise just to get rid of monetary wealth.

the only real solution is eliminating capitalism

Isn’t it always.

History has shown us such a thing is possible to achieve. The best example we have is from 1936, during the Spanish Civil War. The anarchists in Catalonia created a society free of money and exploitation. It was as close to Star Trek as humanity has ever come.

I’m super grateful for this. Thank you and thank you again for such great replies in this post.
