I don't think there's ever been a time when the world of tech has been so out of sync with humanity. I just saw an ad for a laptop saying it has "the power of Copilot". So, that's one to avoid like the proverbial plague, then.
The problem of fascists in Open Source Software projects has become so bad that some vim users are considering using emacs.

@shlee we've already got something around this topic in the works. Stay tuned. 😎
People are suffering, there is nothing funny about this decaying fascist and his idiot/predator supporters trying to ruin the United States of America.
@davidgerard What is a "correctly configured llms.txt"? What is the standard?
@subtruth i suspect if it doesn't work, it can't be that stupid you must be prompting it wrong

Good news: the cyborg cockroach's syringes will be loaded with euthanasia drugs funded by the Elon Musk commemorative "fuck the poor, compassion is a lie" trust!
That's the only way I can think of to make this scenario more nightmarish.
@cstross In London during WW2 (and for all I know, in Kiev etc now despite their expertise in drones) one of the Air Raid rescue teams' items of equipment was a long stick, with a clamp for a syringe at one end, and a mechanism for shoving the plunger connected to the other.
It might be threaded through unstable rubble to a casualty to provide Morphine hopefully to improve their life before they were extracted.
Who needs a clear image of the lunar eclipse when you can have a blurry one photobombed by trees?😂
Tonight’s partial eclipse was obscured by the forest near my vacation place in Idaho when it reached its maximum, at 96% coverage. Still, I was able to get a few photos of it with Earth’s shadow receding, as Luna eventually cleared the trees. I’ll share those soon, but for now here’s my first two shots near peak eclipse. And now to bed.

So maybe launching with small-web.org and having small-tech.org is not a good idea after all…
So what are safe TLDs? Is there even such a thing? Any TLDs not controlled by the US in one form or another? Any anti-fascist TLDs?
Hey @EUCommission, maybe this is the sort of thing you should be looking into given all your “digital sovereignty”, talk, hmm? Pretty easy one to fix, this one.
@EUCommission Also, some of you were scratching your heads when I mentioned last year that the Small Web will be using web numbers at launch, not domain names.
Maybe it makes a bit more sense now?

@imanijoy I've had this account for 8 years and I regularly engage with people and notice randomly.. WAIT I'm not following them?! even if we talk a lot.
I'd love to see a little icon on all of the toots that easily show our relationship status.
+ this would be interesting in threads and boosts to notice that people follow you... and quickly follow them (community building)

Fine. By mid-afternoon, I'll have found a chair. Or a yoga ball.
Although, realistically, mid-afternoon on a Friday before a long weekend, unless there's a genuine emergency, I suspect that you'll be heading home!
And yes, other people may have more rigid expectations around dress. But if you end up in court while working with me today, something has gone very badly wrong. I've been a solicitor for almost 20 years, and I have not been to court once.
@neil @Jaimieserotica impressively, you haven't even had to qualify "I have not been to court once" with "for professional reasons".
Trump is King Canute commanding the tides, except that he's trying to demonstrate that he has the power to do it instead of that he doesn't.

South Korea supports U.S. President Donald Trump's efforts to resume dialogue with North Korea, but aims to ensure its security posture is not weakened, South Korea's national security adviser has said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/08/28/asia-pacific/north-south-korea-us-nuclear/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #asiapacific #southkorea #asia #eastasia #northkorea #us #donaldtrump
@EUCommission To answer my own question, if you’re not a fascist in the EU, consider registering a TLD from a non-US registry with no ICAAN registry contact:
EU/EEA ccTLD registries (non-US operators, no ICANN registry contract):
• .de – DENIC eG, Frankfurt (cooperative)
• .nl – SIDN, Arnhem (foundation)
• .fr, .re, .yt, .pm, .tf, .wf – AFNIC, France
• .eu – EURid, Brussels
• .be – DNS Belgium
• .at – nic.at, Vienna
• .cz – CZ.NIC, Prague
• .pl – NASK, Warsaw (state research institute)
• .se, .nu – Internetstiftelsen, Sweden
• .dk – Punktum dk
• .fi – Traficom (Finnish state agency)
• .it – Registro.it / IIT-CNR, Pisa
• .es – Red.es (public body)
• .pt – DNS.PT
• .ie – IE Domain Registry
• .gr, .ελ – ICS-FORTH, Crete
• .hu – ISZT · .ro – ICI Bucharest · .bg – Register.BG · .hr – CARNET · .si – Arnes · .sk – SK-NIC (owned by UK-listed Team Internet) · .lu – Restena · .lv, .lt, .ee, .cy, .mt – national academic/foundation registries
Nearby non-EU, non-US: .is (ISNIC, Iceland)
It’s also important to use non-US payment systems like SEPA, Aero, national payment systems – iDEAL (NL), Bancontact (BE), Blik (PL), Bizum (ES), MB Way (PT), Swish (SE), MobilePay (DK/FI)) – or non-proof-of-work (because environment) cryptocurrencies.
If you have any other suggestions, etc., please reply to the thread.
@aral Can maybe also consider .meow when the time comes!
https://dotmeow.org (yes that's .org...)
