That, and an ability to withstand frustrations, and ask or hunt in Quora/StackOverflow … in the end, this is geeky stuff.

Yes, but even then, mostly from first hand experience of people trying to install. Much of that is about apprehensions of “shall I? shall not I?”

@essential_readings https://derekfranksmusings.substack.com/p/covid-isnt-overthe thing is… we have data. Like I said, this is the most studied disease in history.Those studies show, without a shadow of a doubt, that covid is a dire threat to everyone. Everyone. Even you.The data is extremely clear on this too: the pandemic is not over. And, as I will argue in this article, in many ways we are worse off than ever.The data also totally and irrefutably destroys this ridiculous, un-scientific notion that you can just “live your life” with no regards to your safety or the safety of others. It bears repeating. I promise you this: covid is a dire threat to your health and safety. Now. In 2023. Ignore these at your own risk.#CovidIsNotOver

এই প্রসঙ্গের তাৎপর্য কি বলতে চাইছিস? এ জিনিস এপার ওপার বাংলায় কেন, গোটা উপমহাদেশে অজস্র পাবি। আমাদের বাঙালীদের মধ্যে যদি আমরা সাহেবদের মত সামগ্রিক ভাবে একজোট একপ্রাণ হতে পারতাম, তাহলে বাংলাভাগ হত না, উদ্বাস্তু হতে হতে না, তামাম বাংলা জাপান কোরিয়ার লেভেলে প্রথম বিশ্বের দেশগুলোর সঙ্গে চোখে চোখ রাখত। এককালে তাই তো ছিল। সুবে বাংলা ফার্স্ট ওয়ার্ল্ড, ইউরোপের নয়নের মণি, নাহলে কম দেশের নৌকো ভিড়েছে চট্টগ্রাম থেকে তাম্রলিপ্তে?

Bengali, the seventh most spoken language in the world, the first Asian language that was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature, and the only language in the world that led to the creation of a nation, that of Bangladesh! #BengalTheBeautiful

Fantastic Hunter, great and rare to meet a friend with wide ranging interests that we share! Here is a short reading list:https://www.global-briefing.org/2013/04/the-birth-of-bangladesh/Here’s a resource on the role of language in the freedom movement of Bangladeshhttps://dailyasianage.com/news/164394/language-movement-of-1952-birth-of-bangladeshThe language movement was the catalyst for the assertion of Bengali national identity, the forerunner of the nationalist movements - including the six-point movement of the Awami League, led by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, which called for a federal government with a high level of autonomy - and the liberation war itself. The first election for the East Bengal provincial assembly was held from 8-12 March 1954. The Awami Muslim League, Krishak-Sramik party and Nezam-e-Islam formed the United Front, which won 215 of the 237 Muslim seats.Here’s the Britannica entry for Bengali language: https://www.britannica.com/topic/Bengali-languageOur resident historian in this thread @BengaleeBabu (alias Bengali Babu or Mr Bengali) can provide more information 🙂

I find both #Jitsi and #Bigbluebutton better than Zoom. I often host videoconference in #Mozilla hubs, even more fun!

I was going to suggest Lamy but realised @khird asked for a slimmer body or that’s how I interpreted it. This is fantastic advice, @freemo.

This fediblock thing is the biggest undoing of Fediverse. Tolerance of diversity is the key to any conversation. I may not like your proposal but if I shut you down, the biggest loser is me because I am hiding behind an echo chamber. Shame to whoever is trying to fediblock you mate.

Sphagetti squash is also popular in Eastern India, a version of it is called “chalkumro” (“rice pumpkin”/“pumpkin rice” - literal translation) perhaps because of its flaky and string like pulp, that produces “sphagetti” or long “rice like” threads. Interesting, I never tried it here. Will get one next time and try to scoop out the spaghettis. How do you cook it?

He seems to have a very fixed mindset. Sometimes I wonder if being blocked is a blessing, you do not have to wade through layered inanity.

This is an amazing epiphany, I’d love to see this vision realised. But the hard reality is that in general awareness of even the term #Fediverse across university campuses is abysmally low, let alone realise its potential. They have courses on promoting things on x or Facebook and everything is about LinkedIn, but the moment you mention Mastodon they look askance as if that does not exist.

Being left of centre does not necessarily imply openness of mind.

… And criticism for the sake of criticism. Perhaps to appear holier than thou or whatever (sigh) … :-)

Everywhere. Its power play. Criticise, deny, dehumanise.
