@ericjames@booping.synth.download Thats fair. I reckon it is well within your ability to self-host a few small services if you were motivated, but I get your point.

@ericjames@booping.synth.download On the other hand, self-hosted/small community-scale email has been made extremely difficult by google and microsoft. There are so many hoops to jump through if you want to have your emails deliver reliably to gmail or outlook inboxes.

@ericjames@booping.synth.download @mynameistillian@plush.city Infrastructure and self-hosting doesn't need to be that technically complicated. With our current tech, docker makes things quite easy - usually one config file and one command to start the container. I probably spend an hour per month on average maintaining and updating my server and I have loads of services running. Also, on the other end of the scale, cubans have been running their own internet by throwing cables between buildings by hand. Running a 90's/00's-style internet is technically quite cheap and straightforward I think.

@mynameistillian@plush.city So true. Although to be fair I think the older generation has a better understanding of 'low tech' communications and using it during emergencies than the young. They all used to tune in to shortwave radio stations and use telegrams. Some kids now who grew up on ipads and iphones don't know what files are.

$11 Billion was too much to retrieve the samples but, at least that much was spent on just missiles in the first week of the pointless Iran war.

It's crazy to me that the NASA Perseverence and Curiosity rovers found compelling evidence for past life on Mars, and the US cancelled the mission to retrieve the samples.

@MarkHoltom@mastodonapp.uk Because when travelling back to the past, there is a concrete but fragile present that you would notice and miss if it changed. But from the present, there is no concrete future that you could preserve.

I just noticed creative scotland put up a new job ad for a part time content creator position at the Scots language centre.
Thought some of my Scottish mutuals might be interested!
