I am going to make history on the Fediverse... Keep reading...

1st: I am moving to @[email protected] (with @[email protected] as my reserved account). I want to thank our awesome administrator, @Kitty who continuously kept things running smoothly, and remained engaged with their users […]

That site was our only hope....

Windows 11 has a cool feature hidden in "device manager".

You can point it to a folder with drivers, without selecting a particular device, and without manually adding drivers 1 by 1, for each device. Just have Windows scan a whole folder, and it will add […]

Would you have any insight, on why mstdn.social and kokonect.link do not seem to communicate?

Would you, by chance, know why kokonect.link does not seem to connect to lgbtqia.space ?

@Kitty I mean, you have that fiancée up north. Instead of her coming down to you, you could always go up to her.

Many of us will have some time off over the next few weeks. Some of us have more than others 🙃
Be sure to reflect on what it all means. It’s cold and crappy in the northern hemisphere and Australia is on fire. It’s a time of retailers marking things up to put them on sale. It’s a time for […]

I seem to have set this fun and silly poll for 30 days. Oops.

I voted "China" and the reason for this is twofold:

1) You do not want your country spying on you.

For example, if you lived in China, you should have voted either America or Russia, in my opinion. Because the country that can […]

The Middle East is frustrating too.

We should be nowhere near there. But our government wants oil and has fight for years against an alternative. We also seem to feel we need to be the world's police man.

I want the people of Israel to live happy, healthy, and safe lives, just as much as I […]

This election cycle was frustrating.

I knew Kamala Harris was going to lose on day 1. But I also knew, just how f*cked up Donald Trump was going to be.

We need better leadership and better people coming forward, just as much as better thinkers when voting.

That's a lot to take on all at once […]

There is the interesting, and frustrating, possibility, that I may just end up back on Reddit, hidden among the masses.

I'm not happy with Reddit's app or how some of their Subreddits are managed. But Reddit worked for me, and it only stopped working, because I interned as an […]

Same line of thinking (minus the self-hosting).

I think @Kitty is an awesome administrator. Do you know how hard that is to find?

For example, I want freedom of speech, but I do not want hate speech.

That means, during the USA Election, I had the freedom to say, I thought Trump and Harris […]

Well fuck...
I mean I was considering after the elections if it's not a good idea to migrate to a non-US instance, but I decided it'd be overreaction at this point. And I love it here too much, it's a great place, with a great admin.

Sadly it seems it might be time for me to selfhost again […]

Goodnight, Neverland. 😴

I need to get some rest before work.

I'm not actually going to call out. It's Friday, so technically, I just need to work today, and then I have the weekend off.

But this weekend -- Sleep. Lots of it.

I think I am going to call out of work, tomorrow.

I'm kind of annoyed. Time is escaping me. This is the 3rd time, that I covered up the bird around 10:00 PM, sat on my computer, and suddenly it is 3:30-4:00 AM. Like, I honestly, do not know where the time went.

Either, I am exhausted and […]

I just recalled, Reliable Sites (dot net), the hosting provider I kept suggesting to everyone, is also in Florida.

Current objective:

2) New Fedi must not be hosted by, Hertz

Are you in Florida, USA?

This new law may impact your ability to run a Fedi instance on the Fediverse.

To clarify, Kitty Dot Social is NOT shutting down, at this time.

There is, however, a general concern surrounding the legality give the new laws in Florida. The full post (please read it), outlines that concern.
