  The script these scammers run on here is entirely predictable: > "We investigated ourselves, verified ourselves, and found nothing wrong. Now trust us, hand over your money, and if you object, you must support genocide." Funny how convenient that defense is. Let me be entirely clear: I 100% believe Israel is guilty of war crimes, without a shadow of a doubt. But I also 100% know that these accounts are predatory scammers exploiting that exact human tragedy for profit. I know thi...

  My annoyance with the Fediverse is all the scammers. I do not suspect they're scammers — I know they're scammers, because they're using the same photos as the next person. I also have the unique perspective from my job where I deal with this sort of thing professionally (I work for Meta/Facebook). Some of them are not just staged or stock photos, but even A.I. photos too. Honestly, I always get a small laugh when I see the old photo re-shared with 6 fingers. The stupid scammers are...

  @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org The orange, Nazi pedophile in the White House, along with the many Nazi pedophile sympathizers that are the GOP Party, are cold, heartless assholes who see the deaths of thousands and millions of people as a net positive. To that end, of course, they're going to encourage more people to become food insecure (starving). The only way to stop them, hold them accountable, and change things for the better in a significant, meaningful way is if we elect true progressives. I...

  @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org The real tragedy is that it wasn't just me all those years ago. But I have no doubt that right now — as I type this and you read it — kids are speaking up about crucial matters and going completely unheard.

  @ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org My last asthma attack was when I was 19. I'm 45 now. I've been fortunate enough that I don't need medication anymore. But as a child, I experienced asthma so regularly and so severely that I assumed it was how I was going to die — gasping for breath until my last. That's an awfully heavy thought for a child to bear. We had a gas stove. Ironically, I prefer cooking over a real flame, but my asthma was always worse around it. When I asked my doctor, he said...

  ⚠️ Sharkey is no longer compatible with Mastodon and Misskey.⚠️ As a fork of Misskey, Sharkey hasn't been keeping up with recent updates to either Misskey or Mastodon. Because of this, people using newer versions of Mastodon and Misskey can no longer vote in polls hosted on Sharkey sites. The current version of Mastodon is 4.6.3 and the current version of Misskey is 2026.7.0-beta.4 If your Fedi site is running an older version of Mastodon or Misskey, you may still be able to interact with...

  For 3 months I ran an experiment: Hello Fediverse, meet Tom. Tom dislikes hate speech, homophobia, transphobia, racism, and sexism. They openly oppose discrimination, segregation, inequality, hate crimes, and war crimes. Tom does not debate or argue with anyone on social media, choosing to avoid conflict altogether. At most, Tom may occasionally post a link to a well-documented scientific journal or an established long-term study — sticking solely to facts without sharing personal opinions....

  Kentucky Governor and Democratic moderate centrist Andy Beshear, along with Senator and Republican conservative Mitch McConnell, are good examples of why many people see the two parties as the same. We all know that Mitch McConnell is likely not well enough to perform his duties anymore, or, if reports are believed to be true, has passed away (is dead). Andy Beshear himself claims he has received reports of Mitch McConnell's passing (death). But the goal of the Republican party is to drag...

  Let's lovingly pick on Vivaldi for a moment. Vivaldi Browser is my web browser of choice. In my opinion, it is everything Mozilla Firefox once promised it would be, but unlike Mozilla, Vivaldi delivers. It's an awesome web browser, and I recommend it. Vivaldi is under U.S. jurisdiction, and they don't hide that fact. They have an office right here in my home state of Massachusetts with fewer than 10 employees. But again, they do not hide that fact. They're not promoting themsel...

  I am waiting for Vivaldi Social to start working on their copy of Mastodon 4.6. I suspect they'll wait until 4.6.1 as many people are. https://github.com/vivaldi/mastodon/branches

  RE: https://linuxrocks.online/@tuxedocomputers/116877998829566511 Yay! I can finally recommend Tuxedo OS. Most Ubuntu forks are "soft" forks that track Ubuntu as their upstream. Because Ubuntu follows Debian, this creates a messy chain: Debian > Ubuntu > third-party dev. You have to worry about bugs from all three. For example, like Linux Mint, these forks work great at first. But unless you stick to a stock setup and only use Flatpaks, updates eventually break things. Customi...

  When Donald Trump dies, we should all party in the street.

  For the 4th of July, we should fill Washington, D.C., with people chanting: 'Fuck you, Donald Trump!' That would be the most patriotic thing for America's 250th birthday celebration. #July4 #IndependenceDay #America250 #USA

  Blink and you miss it. Mastodon 4.6.3 was released 3 hours ago, I only boosted the post a moment ago, but the admin here on Vivaldi already upgraded. Good job.

  RE: https://mastodon.com.pl/@Linux/116833869299599346 I would be remiss if I didn't point out that my favorite web browser, Vivaldi Browser, partnered with Proton VPN before news of these issues became widely known. I hope that when their partnership (contract) ends — and I hope it does sooner rather than later — they choose a better alternative. Likewise, I suspect many Mozilla Firefox users now feel the same way about Firefox's partnership with Mullvad VPN.

  It finally happened. Someone correctly called Donald Trump a pedophile to his face. And all I want to know is where is the video. We need to put that video on Internet Archive. https://jp.ibtimes.com/trump-called-paedophile-flipped-off-protester-during-mack-trucks-event-pennsylvania-101920 #DonaldTrump #Trump #Pedophile #MAGA #InternetArchive

  @Lydie@tech.lgbt I am so glad he confirmed this. When Netgear was the first to apply for the government waiver, I warned everyone about the report concerning their government-approved firmware and, in some models, a control chip. I was wrongfully accused of "fear-mongering". Especially, since I couldn't relocate the original PDF from the FCC. I am tired of being right, though. Because in instance such as this, being right just reminds me of how bad things are getting.

  The 1 thing that upsets me about Donald Trump, along with our government that keeps protecting him, is that despite everything that has happened, people are not mad enough yet. #Trump #DonaldTrump #America

  That moment when you see you have pending notifications to view, but see nothing when you look for them. 🙄 Translation: A few trolls are leaving cowardly comments without giving you the ability to view or comment, before blocking you. Giving the false impression that you have nothing to say. Cowards. 🤣 #Mastodon #Fediverse
