       @Tutanota The word "spam" meaning to flood a place with unwanted messages comes from a carnist joke made by #MontyPython in which the capitalist product Spam is mythologized as an archetypal unwanted worthless repetition.  A murder victims body reduced to a literal throw-away joke depicting their mangled corpse as nothing more than a nuisance.  The company that killed them "Spam company" is remembered more readily than the victim#spam #carnism #capitalism

       Theres a lot of hope for #JeremyCorbyn new party #YourParty in #UnitedKingdom but anarchist analysis tells us one of few things will happen should they win the electionA. Be bent into a shape that the throne requires & justify betrayal by saying its better them sitting there than #NigelFarageB. Defy capital > have perks & access cut off (remember who pays the majority of the states bills & for the police & military)C. Authoritarian scaffolding easily overrun by fascistsTrue liberation is bottom up and immune to such corruption because we all play a part, no gods no masters, true democracy.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTwxpTyGUOI the only good I see coming from this whole affair is the extent it will radicalize liberals when Corbyn is compromised one way or the other.  He could be a saint a really cool dude Idc, placing ur faith in politicians to save you is saviour worship and you're setting yourself up for disappointment(repost from suspended social.coop acc)

       @Tutanota bluesky is now hosting accounts for White House, Homeland Security / ICE, Department of War, JD Vance etc which are posting fascist propaganda [1] this combined with numerous other failures like banning pro palestine accounts [2] banning trans activists for criticising jk rowling [3] and complying with turkish state censorship requests [4] leads me to finally recommend de-federation from all bluesky bridges[1]https://veganism.social/@FediThing@chinwag.org/115393913747500672[2]https://www.middleeasteye.net/trending/bluesky-faces-backlash-over-alleged-censorship-palestinian-voices[3]https://www.thepinknews.com/2025/08/25/bluesky-trans-criticism-jk-rowling/[4]https://gizmodo.com/bluesky-just-bowed-to-censorship-demands-in-turkey-but-theres-a-loophole-2000593628

       @LilaHexe I assume you're just learning about framework defending fascists in their online spaces.  Have you seen the open hardware laptop MNT reform @mntmn they seem good

       @apps Sounds interesting, I like that you're trying to make it easier for people to self host, this will improve the censorship resilience of mastodon.  Now if only fediverse clients supported tor or i2p addresses

       @Tutanota I've mentioned this before but SimpleX is more private secure and anonymous that signal threema and session.SimpleX is decentralised meaning taking down a single group of servers or org wouldnt destroy the simplex network, people can run completely anonymous simplex servers over tor, this puts simplex ahead of Signal and ThreemaSimpleX has quantum resistant encryption which puts it ahead of Threema and Session, the UK military[1] and NATO[2] both consider quantum computers to be a threat now because of store now decrypt later attacksSimpleX has no user identifiers not even random strings, its essentially like having a "burner phone for every contact".  Two or more compromised contacts could corroborate your messages by linking them to your signal username or your session id, but with simplex your contacts can't prove your identity even between eachother.  This fact puts SimpleX above Signal Threema and SessionThese technical details about the simplex protocol can all be found on the project website including the whitepaper[3][1]https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/whitepaper/preparing-for-quantum-safe-cryptography[2]https://www.nato.int/docu/review/articles/2021/06/03/quantum-technologies-in-defence-security/index.html[3]http://isdb4l77sjqoy2qq7ipum6x3at6hyn3jmxfx4zdhc72ufbmuq4ilwkqd.onion/#SimpleX #Threema #Signal #Session #PSA #Privacy #Security #Anonymity #NATO #UnitedKingdom #Tor #QuantumResistantEncryption

       @nextcloud (I answered not necessarily)I'm an anarchist so I don't think governments should do anything that makes their work more efficient at arresting my friends who free animals from laboratories and blockade meat packing plants.#Anarchism #Speciesism #Protest

       @Tutanota Some other simple things8. Disable google advertising ID in phone settings9. Install F-Droid where you can discover many FLOSS apps deliberately not published on google play10. Switch from a fingerprint to a pin (added bonus that police in several countries can legally force your thumb onto your phone but cant legally force you to give up a pin)11. Switch from google notification servers to something else like microg  and/or set notifications to not display message content or at least not display message content when the phone is locked (Im pretty sure all that can be done from notification settings)12. Switch from googles keyboard app to an open source alternative from f-droid (google has been fined millions before for illegally and secretly tracking geolocation it wouldnt surprise me if they do the same with keystrokes, and also mic and camera)13. There's a bunch of other phone-home features spread across the settings but mostly under privacy category and accessibility category that you might want to turn off if you have no use for#Google #Android #Privacy #PSA #FLOSS #FDroid #Advertising #Microg

       @sammypanda I dont have anything technical to add about the viability of modding Hytale but closed source means anti-user every time.  I forgot have we talked about luanti or mineclonia?#FLOSS #FLOSSgaming #Luanti #Mineclonia #Hytale

       @sammypandaThe settings menu was updated a couple of months ago, you dont have to quit a world to get to the advanced settings anymore and its more navigable.The whole game still doesn't look pretty but I've learned with FLOSS games to ignore the looks and focus on evaluating gameplay.  At least in mineclonia the default texture pack is niceSpeaking of art direction in FLOSS games these ones look really pretty: Taisei Project, Hedgewars, OpenSurge, 0AD, Supertux Advance#FLOSS #FLOSSGaming #Luanti #Mineclonia #TaiseiProject #Hedgewars #OpenSurge #0AD #SupertuxAdvance

       @sammypanda I also like playing 0AD but did you catch the white supremacist signalling in one of the map descriptions? Its the one called White Cliffs of Dover or something and talks about foreigners "invading britain" by coming over the english channel and its a 1v5 map#FLOSS #FLOSSGaming #WhiteSupremacy #Racism

       @sammypanda I dont follow their socials or talk in any forums but war games tend to to attract fascists so I dont really want to and open source spaces aren't immune.  I just play with people I trust.I first noticed it months ago its still there#FLOSSGaming #FLOSS #0AD

       @play0ad @sammypanda Thank you for responding,"secure the homeland for the next generation" is a nazi slogan commonly referred to as "the 14 words" as I live in england I can tell you there is a contemporary white supremacist attitude of opposing immigrants landing at or around dover across the channel referring to them as "invaders" and saying they are "destroying the country" I can say with utmost certainty that whoever wrote this knew exactly what they were referring toI need you to understand that this isnt just a fictional scenario it is a specific reference to contemporary and widespread white supremacist attitudes in england today that I see frequently in my communities#WhiteSupremacy #England #Racism #Immigration #Nazi

       @sammypandaJust replying to tag sammypanda again, 0AD patch to replace the "secure our homeland for the next generation" map description looks good to me what do you think?One thing I forgot to mention earlier was specifically the 1v5 structure mirrors white nationalist beliefs that the country is being invaded by lots of different foreigners from different countries (immigrants) but saying that its the romans fixes this too I think
