    Mastodonia: a place where conversations are one long list of content warnings which you have to laboriously click on one by one. That's pretty much a failure in terms of user experience.

    Aadhaar is like the nightmare stepchild of the "central identity database" which the last UK Labour government almost succeeded in introducing.

    The thing about these centralized schemes is that they give government officials a lot of power over the citizen.

    @verius the original Nazis cared so much about free speech that they burned books by Freud, Einstein and many others. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazibookburnings

    "In an effort to approximate 'democratic equality,' the 'official' moderators allowed everyone present to address the crowd about subjects of their choosing, giving each speaker the same amount of time to develop their thoughts—just a couple minutes. Although appealing in theory, this practice rapidly revealed its shortcomings, as imposing the same speaking time on each orator did not achieve the expected effects. Instead, this decision ended up preventing spontaneity and serious discussion."

    "The difficulty of finding common ground we experienced during our first general assemblies was not an isolated case. In Paris, some radical groups always try to defend their own image and interests by imposing their point of view on others. We often face this problem in autonomous circles: the challenge of dealing with power dynamics and the hegemony of certain groups or individuals."

    @herrabre @kyzh +1 has also been used on the few irc channels that I've been on in the last few years (including internal company ones). I know it was used in Google+, but I assume it originally comes from newspeak, as in plusgood and doubleplusgood.

    This is all nice, and it would be great if companies did things like this, but I think there's a basic education thing here which is missing.

    In the typical software-related startup the boss is not going to care about your personal growth. They're not going to care about the gender ratio, your imposter syndrome or your reluctance to ask for a raise. In fact they'll be delighted if you never ask for a raise.

    Why?

    Because this is just the way capitalism works. The capitalist only cares about profit and very little else. Even if he looks like your dad and is by all accounts a really nice guy with good intentions he has no choice in the matter. It's what Marx referred to as the coercive power of competition.

    So to have the kinds of issues described in the article is to be experiencing what John Searle called "the ungst of Man under late capitalism"

    You know it probably wouldn't be a too terrible a task to make a text mode client for GNU social in Commodore Basic, if you had or wrote a tcp thing for it.

    @maiyannah within the debian install script there's the EXPIRE_MONTHS variable, and you can adjust that to whatever you think is sensible.

    @mushmouth @maiyannah Calling people a Nazi or a "little Hitler" in a casual way has existed for as long as I can remember. Usually referring to officials or bosses who obsessively enforce trivial bureaucratic rules even when those rules don't make sense.
