   Either we shut it down.

   Or they do.

   So far, the consensus opinion seems to be to let them do it.

   Usian culture at its finest.

   @gamingonlinux I installed that last night because I couldn't get past the weirdness of installing packages on the Fedora Atomic backend of Bazzite. I know they want you to use flatpack, but there's A LOT that FlatPack can't do.

   So far so good, though I'm probably going ot gut the Cinnamon desktop and install KDE Plasma.

   Just wanna share a recent thing that happened to me. I was invited to attend a summit in France in 3 weeks. I told them I need the funding to travel and support for visa RIGHT NOW, if they want to bring me.

   For people with privileged passports, you need at least a month for a visa to be processed. We cant just pop up at the airport like most of you do.

   So this institute said they want to bring 'Global South' (I hate this term) voices to the summit. Cool. But they want the 'Global South' people to have an existing visa in Europe. Where the hell do u find these people? Do random aid workers in Timbuktu just apply for random Schengen visa for fun? Or a 'global south' person with a European passport?

   If you want to bring people from poorer countries, you need to engage well in advanced and ensure people get their visas on time. Or you will perpetuate visa apartheid to global events. Global events are already dominated by people from rich countries whose voices seem to matter more than the rest of us.

   So, a network divided by incompatible protocols will not reach its full potential.

   For some people, that might still feel like success. A half dozen incompatible protocols, sometimes bridged and sometimes not, maybe with some dual-stack nodes to spice things up a bit. The medium makes do.

   So, somewhat agree, for varying definitions of success.

   I think if there's a chance to get the whole network connected, and you can get full flourishing value, you have to try.

   @sarajw Haha yeah! 🤝

   Re: your first post, I am super relieved this article is getting shared. I feel the same way.

   Like, as devs, often our actual software understanding is shaped by our emotional / empathic ability. If we don't "get it", it's harder for us to do.

   So starting with a derisive tone, that's bad for obvious reasons. But, I think it also shows an audience a good reason to suspect that the person speaking doesn't "get it". And they might not! Changing process/tools isn't zero cost

   Extinction, Orcutt GHGs! (wmorcutt@mastodon.green)'s status on Saturday, 06-Jul-2024 02:21:43 JST Extinction, Orcutt GHGs!

   When someone yells ** FIRE! ** in a crowded theatre everyone knows what to do, but when scientists yell ** THE PLANET IS ON FIRE! ** no one knows what to do.

   So, I decided to write a book about what *YOU* can do. You should read my book https://www.amazon.com/PLANET-TOO-HOT-eco-conscious-mitigating-ebook/dp/B0CW1FNVJQ and find out for yourself how eco-conscious citizens can cool the planet by themselves. 👇
