I just explained how the fediverse works to my mom and she thinks I'm some kind of dark web cyber criminal now I think.

@futurebird I recently explained Mastodon to another late-middle-aged woman on an Amtrak, and she joined an instance on the spot. She'd never heard of it, but was fed up with X, etc.

@futurebird I learned on punch cards too, so maybe I’ve aged out of l-m-a, but I'm resisting calling myself elderly ;-)

@JamesK I thought THIS was the "dork web" we were on right now?

@futurebird Well, that’s how I think of it, but I wasn’t willing to assign that thinking to you!😂

@futurebird @neurovagrant Get as many monitors as you can in there. Add in a baby monitor if you have it.

@being @futurebird Big tech, and politics.I can't shake off the feeling of guilt over it, though my personal involvement is relatively low. But having an 80s childhood in the shadow of the Cold War, followed by the German reunification, and then the advent of the Internet in the 90s... it sort of made me feel too optimistic about the future, one could say.I mean, we effectively built all this stuff, and weren't prepared for how it would be exploited. I know I had an inkling that we need...

@being @futurebird ... a more people-focused approach in the late 2000s, but between life happening and things not being too bad, I didn't really do much about it. And I wouldn't have predicted the situation of today anyway, not really. I really do feel that my generation let down our guard too much, both with regards to tech and politics (haven't touched on that much, but /me gestures around).

@futurebird when I first started using Mastodon I was reposting my toots on Farcebook and my friends were all like "hey I think you've been hacked I am getting all these posts from you with links to this sketchy Columbian website called coales.co" which made me sad because it was not sketchy at all it was actually my very own little mastodon that literally lived on a smol computer in my garage so I deleted my Facebook account forever and now I am happy again

@msh @futurebird I like how you can repurpose old computers to be server infra
