@ScriptFanix @selzero where to obtain it? :blobcatjoy:
@ryanc What do you mean? :blobcatmlem:
I am my own CA for several years but I created all keys, I own them and I can control it. But I don't see how one could do it other way...
@Debbie_Lindsay @thekitmalone I feel pessimistic for several years but in last weeks I realized it would be much worse if I used mainstream services and/or didn't block ads and trackers. It would be really horrible if some soulless algorithm could purposely exploit my emotional weakness and send me down into the dark hole.

I haven't heard about Horned #Melon before... but it was obvious there should be some cartoon (or anime?) in which someone would have this #creature as a pet.
@cwebber thank you for inspiration!

What is on this picture?
a. Current state of old routers your company wouldn't replace because of cost cutting.
b. That server with critical service and eternal uptime, not upgraded so long repositories don't exist now.
c. K8s pod stuck in "Terminating" state.
d. Effect of running code written with ChatGPT.
e. That Windows update you delayed for a year, afraid of some failure, but now it exploded more effectively.
f. Everything mentioned above.

Another realistic style #sky view, not based on my own photos, rather inspired by many vague visions. And probably #moon wouldn't be THAT big on real photos :blobcatgiggle:

@BeAware I wonder... what does make a person "content creator"... Is it some threshold in posting frequency, or when it is their main earning source?
Created this after reading conversation in comments below some tech article somewhere. Someone mentioned "surfing the #internet sewer" and I really liked that phrase.

Not sure why she looked at us like this...
After I added some older #Mermay works on DeviantArt, I mentioned one #mermaid was based on my sister. So I had short conversation in comments and other user asked me, if I plan to draw myself or my sister as a mermaid. I thought it could be a good idea and started #drawing.
Initially I planned more stereotypical scene, treasures from a shipwreck etc. Later I thought ships nowadays would drop more modern artifacts, like electronics. So what about made this picture also a symbol of my current complicated relationship with modern tech, as an IT person with some knowledge but also kind of Luddite who actively avoid mainstream devices and services?
When I sometimes read or hear about newest drama in corporate software world, my most often first reaction is similar to this picture :blobcat_uwucry:
Mixture of surprise, shock and disgust...
Funny thing... I always knew #Piped is decentralized, like #Invidious. But for ~3 years I knew only one instance address, second one I accidentally saw here. And I absolutely don't know where to look for more. :blobcatjoy:
Hey, human! Yes, you... Pet me! I demand headpats!
@darnell Yes, I absolutely don't trust them and don't use. I cut from my life few of them and never touched the rest. And I block connections to their services if I find them. Never thought they are critical.
But there are people who don't use it voluntarily but because of external factors (employers, stubborn families, various service providers refusing to use other communication channels) forcing them. And they don't deserve to be "punished".
@darnell But data are STILL siphoned off - there's a big lie paid tiers are free of tracking. Only there is no ads visible. And displaying ads shouldn't require invading poeople's private lives and activities. There wers context ads for example.
Maybe it's good time to finally separate first thing from the second.
@darnell If their business model rely on exploitation, manipulation and general disrespect these companies shouldn't exist at all.
@darnell No, privacy is human right, not thing to put a price tag on it and sell. Nobody should be coerced to pay for not being psychologically manipulated and exploited.
And this only apply to ads in their awful serviced. Paying users wouldn't be free of tracking, only data would be used for other purposes. This is big horrible con.
@tokyo_0 @pinkdrunkenelephants @trumpet I saw posts related to this. Initially mas.to blocked Threads but later changed this to limited. And lists could be not updated after this :/
@glukozavr @BeAware "You either consume, or create" - good summary of why I despise so much corporate internet.
