"MSF SOUTH SUDAN: B-roll after Government forces bombarded MSF hospital in Lankien, South Sudan"
https://prezly.msf.org.uk/msf-south-sudan-b-roll-after-government-forces-bombarded-msf-hospital-in-lankien-south-sudan
That is to say, contains videos showing the aftermath, intended for use by news-outlets.
Every one of these pushes people to the open web. It's always good news, but we need to be ready.
What do YOU think the Fediverse needs to do to welcome people turned off by the world's most recent #Enshitification story?

i do not value your privacy, which is why my website does not have any trackers on it what so ever. i have positively no idea if any human being besides myself has ever actually opened my website. your privacy is worth zero dollars to me. you couldn't even pay me to take it away.
Face recognition technology is so dangerous that government should not use it at all—least of all our federal government’s out-of-control immigration agencies. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/02/yes-ice-out-my-face-act
@dfortes yeah the second gilded age does have some upsides... if we ask the billionaires politely and show appropriate deference when we bow down to kiss the ring. God forbid we make even one rich person feel even slightly uncomfortable, ever.
Taxing billionaires out of existence would immediately fix a lot of our problems, even if we did exactly nothing with the money, because billionaires are the source of a lot of our problems.
@codinghorror @ajn142
@ajn142 yes, it would be nice if billionaires actually paid taxes. Absolute agreement. But tangential and probably irrelevant at the moment given the utterly broken regime the US is currently under. My thoughts and prayers for regime change.
You know how there are people who complain about satellites ruining the night sky?
I'm not like that, I think satellites are awesome.
@codinghorror right, I’m just complaining about how broken means testing is, and how it’s probably the main avenue for “evil” behavior for most benefits*. Short of identity theft to “double up” it’s impossible to game a flat benefit, and even though that’s only equal in treatment, it’s equitable in impact.
*Vastly outweighed by the evil of means testing itself, and the denial of aid to a person in need because they failed some technical requirement to receive the aid.
@ajn142 how is means testing bad, at least in terms of "be within x percent of the poverty level"? Can you elaborate?
@chillicampari oh I did not realize that was you! You were most welcome, I was not going to use it much longer anyway.
@bagder yep! It was me. I would have sat on the floor or stairs if needed but so glad I didn't need to :D
Is it unkind to describe our president as a racist pig? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/is-it-unkind-to-describe-our-president?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
@rbreich That is the unadulterated truth. Apparent for a long time but maybe never so blatant.

I can't eat sweets right now, I'm going to work this dumb holiday to my advantage. 😆
Because a LOT of people are missing the point:
No, Elon Musk is NOT serious about putting a million data centres into orbit. It can't work: laws of physics say "nope".
But SpaceX is expected to go public this year.
Elon is talking up his company's future prospects in front of gullible investors because he needs a growth narrative beyond Starlink, which is already priced in. Something to justify the Starship proram beyond NASA's lunar ambitions.
So it's salesman's bullshit, lies for fools.
@cstross + a distraction from his inclusion in the latest #TrumpEpsteinFiles release.
I’m reading a book. I’m watching anime. I’m not sleeping. I’m cooking a frozen lasagna.
Not sure what’s going on with me. But sounds sketchy af.
@farah actually doesn't sound half bad really
@cstross @Salty Let me introduce you a little known tech that has been running for 2.5 billion years, self assembles, is very cheap with several billiion technicians that can steer it:

I really don't think that if starches are a CC solution, we would need for high temp, high pressure, mineral hungry, crude PV chemsynth solutions from cockey monkeys.
@nathanlovestrees @lxak I’d say this is more for 4-5 years old, depending on how much the kid comprehends
the tricky thing is finding something that is a little more… advanced? in how it explains and talks about it. A lot of stuff I’ve seen is for a much younger person and someone who doesn’t have the experience my son has—he has grown up around my brother and sees him regularly (brother is autistic (nonverbal), epileptic, has cp and developmentally around the same as a one year old). So it isn’t new to him that there are lots of different ways of being. This is a difficult niche, I know
@farah @lxak see this I just added

I think part of the challenge is that his friend is so much like him (unlike my brother who is very obviously different in all the ways his friend is the same) that the differences are harder to explain. He’s a smart kid though

Wer es mal wirklich wissen will wegen der Bahnselbstmorde, der höre sich diese 2 Lokführer an. Hard stuff, knapp 2 Stunden. Überlegt es Euch gut.
Dank den beiden, das muss man sich ja auch erstmal trauen.

Nothing says 'I love you' more than a heart-shaped box of cash.
Momma's got expenses.
