Great article by @zacchiro et.al:
"This Orwellian inversion of the positive meaning of terms such as ‘community’, ‘collaboration’ and ‘openness’ is characteristic of surveillance capitalism [in which business models are based on the skimming of personal data]. In reality, the interests of communities of volunteers and predatory corporations only coincide to the extent that the former are increasingly subject to digital predation by the latter."

Na @FEKT_VUT @VUTvBrne otevřeli nový studijní program zaměřený na vesmírný průmysl. 🚀🛰️
Budoucí vesmírné inženýry a inženýrky čeká např. stavba satelitu nebo stáže v top centrech vesmírného výzkumu. Program je v angličtině a vzniká ve spolupráci s @esa.

if your program takes more than a second to load up it should not take focus on startup im doing other things as your thing is loading up. get real

I don't consent to downloading, executing or viewing your ads. You are not entitled to my time, my attention, my computer.
I don't care how much you want the money. How much you say you need it. If you don't want me freeloading, put a paywall; I might not pay, but I don't object to being denied a webpage. I object to ads.
There are no acceptable or ethical ads. Ads are distractions, annoyances, disruptions. They interfere with people's work, fun, mental health.
J.A.Komenského a Gautamu zvaného buddha dělí více než 2000 let a přesto oba říkají to samé.
There is so much coverage of teen dating in games and movies, like it’s not the easiest thing in the world. Young people have lots of free time, they meet up everyday in school, have no responsibilities like their own children and such, usually have no health problems.
On the other hand take a normal adult person. Spends the good part of the day at work meeting just a few other people who are stupid, boring, hateful, old, married or all of the above. Pretty much nowhere else to go to meet other people. If you address a random person, you just look like a weirdo or a sex offender (thanks to sex obsessed Hollywood). Now that’s tough life! Make a serious game/movie/series about that!
Do you want to know if your friend is somewhere in the #Fediverse network? I wanted to, so I created a https://fedisearch.skorpil.cz
It can search accounts and channels on #PeerTube and "discoverable" accounts on #Mastodon
