   It was 80 years today that Potsdam was destroyed. The pleasant city I work in.

   It was late in the evening. 490 British bombers unloaded 1700 tons of bombs over the historical city, still held by the nearly defeated Nazis and a supporting population, less than four weeks before the war ended amid enormous destruction. In just 35 minutes, 1593 people were killed, 1000 buildings destroyed, 60.000 left homeless.

   Caused by just 12 years of deadly nationalist "Germany first" fascism.

   In 1978 some folks claimed these were the most luxurious seats they had ever sat in.

   It was the peak of this style of plush upholstery seating in automobiles. #RetroCars

   Having taught at University level for 15 years, I have always found it disgusting that students are forced into a lifetime of debt to educate themselves.

   Yes, a degree can help with your career, and enhance your life individually, it also contributes greatly to the collective intellectual wealth of the community you live in.

   It should be affordable and accessible to all who want it.

   I see a lot of media stories about people talking about reducing regulations. People clearly failing to understand what lack of regulation results in.

   It was a lack of proper regulation that allows cows to be fed cows, causing BSE & vCJD.

   It was a lack of regulation requiring seat belts that caused so many people to die in car accidents.

   It was lack of regulation about tamper evident medicine packaging that allowed 7 people to die from poisoned Tylenol.

   Regulation is there to protect us.

   I needed to recompile mpd (Music Player Daemon) on my Raspberry Pi 4 to change the permission groups some of the commands are in.

   It has dozens build dependencies and took about half an hour to compile.

   It appears to be an operating system which can play music...

   @Black_Flag an interesting concept that we as instance owners become responsible for content on other instances.

   When someone sparks up an instance of Mastodon we are all automatically federated with it. Federation is opt out not opt in.

   It is unfeasible the way the Fediverse works, for instance admins to be held responsible for anything that anyone might post on any instance that may have just been created 🤔
