@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social one thing, the decentralized nature means there is perhaps too much choice. Do you get an account on mastodon.social, mstdn.ca, mastodon.com, tusky.whatever.... And also what app do you use to access it? When there was Twitter, there was one official app. With Mastodon, there are a multitude. Sometimes too much choice is counterproductive.

@david_megginson@mstdn.ca @MixMistressAlice@todon.eu I do wonder if Windows 14 or higher might quietly change the underlying OS to their Azure linux. Then again, the video did point out, that Azure Linux is a cloud-only offering.

@jockr@mastodon.social so is this why suddenly Dr. Fauci is in the news with his diary entries being read out on Fox News?

@mason@partychickens.net in my area, K8S introduced a new complication to deploying OpenText Content Server. You have the IT teams that know Content Server when it runs on a Windows VM, and you have K8S IT Teams who know nothing about the middleware application running on their platform. And invariably, the teams don't interact as is the case everywhere in IT.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social just about sums it up

@nemo@mas.to @kali@discuss.systems next, you should get AI bot to finish every sentence with Purple Monkey Dishwasher :)

@nemo@mas.to @kali@discuss.systems wow! effectively he did that thing like in Star Trek TOS where they cause all the robots to malfunction by being illogical.

@flexghost according to Zuckerberg, "it's all about MEEEE ME ME ME ME ME ME MEEEEE"

@Beldarak@mastodon.gamedev.place @taylorlorenz@mastodon.social on my phone, I've been using Tusky. I found multiple apps for Mastodon on Google play, and just went with the one that seemed to have the best rating at the time.

@bitpickup@troet.cafe @taylorlorenz@mastodon.social perhaps I am, but @taylorlorenz@mastodon.social asked the question about why people are resistant to joining. I offered my best explanation as to why that is.

@QasimRashid the deafening global silence from world leaders leads me to conclude that Israel must have a TON of blackmail material on western leaders (certainly the US and UK but probably Germany as well). And what they don't have they can fabricate.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social this all assumes that the US had any intention of creating a stable democracy in any of those countries. In the case of Iraq and Libya and now Venezuela, is they prevented oil industries from being nationalized and prevented the sale of oil in currency other than US$

@brian_greenberg@infosec.exchange I hope the Canadian govt adopts something like this. Their dependence on Microsoft is SCARY

@Doreen32128@universeodon.com @mondoweiss@social.mondoweiss.net @palestine@a.gup.pe @israel@a.gup.pe and if they surrendered, do you really think that it would make a lick of difference to Netenyahu who is trying to stay in power, or Trump, who wants all citizens of Gaza gone so he can make the mother of all real estate deals? Netenyahu has patently demonstrated he doesn't care two wits for any hostages who still remain.

@brettezeleliquide tres bien fait

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social word of advice to Texas courts. Pick a lane.

@zoeschiffer People on the political left are still using Twitter, meaning we need to throttle that data - so says the fascist king who bought it.

@geekygirldawn whenever I'm asked to interview a potential developer, I always look to figure out if they will let me know when they are in over their heads. Too often, junior resources keep going even though they are clearly out of their depth

@Gargron@mastodon.social let's not forget that Thread's meteoric rise in the "ratings" was partially due to everyone on Instagram automagically having an account on Threads which counted to the "total"

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social this is what happens when the politicians are beholden to the media barons.

@maxkennerly@mstdn.social hang on, how can he make stock-based compensation when the company is privately owned? Or is he selling MuskCoin?

@msimoens@mstdn.ca @timbray@hachyderm.io Well, that's me out...I'm useless in those aspects, but look forward to participating in advancing some of the UI improvements that comes out of that good work.

@andrew@ottawa.place @leigh@ottawa.place for now, I've set up an account in both places. Just have to figure out how to get password I set saved - FF was going to clobber my MSTDN password.

@MiaMarkTwo@syzito.xyz @stephanie@ottawa.place the only thing having Carney as PM does for us now, is that unlike if PP were in charge, we're not going to be part of the USA. But it feels like PP is a Bond super-villain whose only purpose is to make Carney seem rational. If the "owners" were serious about the CONS, they have pushed to ditch PP last year.

@JackTheCat@mastodon.scot Iran negotiating with the US is like when you are shaking hands with the schoolyard bully and mid-handshake, he sucker punches you. You quickly learn not to trust him. Iran is right to not want to negotiate. Every time they do, they get sucker punched

@DavidM_yeg regime change really reads like the US saying to world leaders in smaller countries "if you don't hand over all of your nation's resources, we'll put someone in power in your country who will"

@tafkak@mastodon.social and to think that $8 was Musks idea too.

@georgetakei let's just say that if THIS is Christianity, then I'm on team Lucifer.

@jensorensen@mastodon.social great idea. We need to get the rest of men on board if we want a habitable planet. Totally relate to the biking one. I bike in city traffic regularly. It is at least in downtown Ottawa, the fastest way to get around.

@leigh@ottawa.place @andrew@ottawa.place Is it possible to be in two places at once? i.e. ottawa.place and mstdn.ca? My current handle is at mstdn.ca but I live in Ottawa

@LordCaramac@discordian.social @cmconseils@mastodon.social which is why the US flies around in circles

@underlap@fosstodon.org probably because any more would not be plausible. Remember, it's all about the marketing.

@lolennui@mstdn.social he couldn't. Microsoft bought it already

@nemo@mas.to this just makes me want to root for Iran even more. It's also no wonder that today, the majority of citizens of the west now trust China more than they trust the USA which blindly obeys Israel at every turn.

@dyckron@cosocial.ca totally feels like pitting urban voters against suburban voters, like when Doug Ford wanted to rip up bike lanes in the city of Toronto to appease suburban voters who don't even live where the bike lanes are but transit through their neighbourhood.

Canadians, CRA should investigate UN Watch. Just because UN is in the name doesn't make it an OK charity. #FreePalestine#IsraelTerroristStatehttps://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-the-cra-to-investigate-un-watch-canada?source=direct_link&amp

@MasterMischief@mastodon.social @dpp@mastodon.social @Lana@beige.party @interfluidity@zirk.us new slogan "two legs better"

@ottaross@mastodon.social @robattrell@mastodon.social and it guarantees RWNJs never get power. But given that RWNJs are exactly who the owners want, the owners won't let us have preferential ballots

@scalzi@mastodon.social hey look, it's Catbert, evil director of Human resources....just needs glasses.
