@thor gambling is free association and free trade between adults. any state that bans it is illegitimate and should be overthrown.

@metlos @adrianhon moderation necessarily happens *after* the writing part is complete. that means it's not about what people have written (in the past), it's about stopping others from being able to read what has already been written (censorship).

my selfhosted smtpd will not accept plaintext emails, but will (now) allow you to HELO/EHLO with invalid or nonexistent or non-fqdn hostnames (why do all the postfix docs want you to configure to deny mail for that reason??)

thrown for a loop how so many big tech company people are trying out mastodon for the first time these past two weeks and have post histories that read:

"ok gonna give this a try, this is weird and i dont like it"

"im not happy about this but im forced to admit im enjoying this its a breath of fresh air"

"im starting to realise how much twitter was destroying my ability to interact with people"

"ok heres my twelve toot plan on how mastodon should introduce algorithms and become twitter 2"

@Chris_Sigurdson what's he's doing is creating valuable and profitable businesses. he's done this several times. twitter is an unprofitable business, so he immediately took steps to reduce expenses and increase revenue. seems pretty straightforward to me.

my health insurance sent me a letter saying that my current plan (which i have had for less than 1 year) will increase in price by over 30%. it says if i don't like this to log into the state website and choose a different one. the state website says my account is locked out. i've used it once since creation (just under a year ago).

the government should not be allowed to run websites.

"I wish I had a superpower."
"You have. You can communicate, make other people understand your thoughts and feelings."
"No, a real one."
"You can make things, transform wood, fibre, clay or metal into something new."
"No, I want..."
"You can have all that and still ask for more."

"We have decoded the latest missive from the Humans," Scrp'x said. "It appears to be a diplomatic commitment of loyalty."
Behind them, the gold plaque found on the Humans' first probe was shown.
"They undertake to never: give us up, let us down, or run around and desert us."

The messages from space began with numerical patterns then built from there. Arithmetic, algebra, calculus; then concepts no human mathematician had dreamt of. But having seen them, they worked it out.
"It's a proof the sender exists."
"So are the messages."
"Still worth saying."

"Oh dear, you have a lot of... things."
The cyborg looked up. "The word is prosthetics."
"So much machinery. Don't you worry you will stop being human?"
"Oh, there is a line I will not cross."
"What line is that?"
"I will not question another person's humanity."
