Hey @X / @premium : How do I talk to a human about a paid/premium X account (my wife’s — @kalunduke) which was permanently suspended (with no option of appeal)… by what was clearly an AI bot making a mistake? I’ve attempted to DM with @Premium but that is appears to be a mildly incompetent AI chatbot. Is there no way for paying X customers to speak to a human to get technical or account support, @elonmusk & @nikitabier?

Founder of @DevuanOrg (a Systemd-free fork of Debian) has declared that Devuan Linux "will remove age verification" that they inherit from projects they base upon.

@coah80 If you don't know, just use Ubuntu. When you find something about Ubuntu you don't like, switch to something that does whatever that is better. Or, choose something that someone you know will help you with, whatever that is.

might make the switch to linux this year ngl... what do i use - mint sucks - pop os sucks - nobara is okay - dank linux is lowkey a contender 😭 - cachy i like - nix maybe

For a exactly 42 years, fundamental physics has consisted of a gated institutional narrative that anyone attempting to explain the origins of the Standard Model and General Relativity outside of one theory known not to work, is a crank that cannot be part of the community. Here:

Pewdiepie reveals how to break free from the algorithm “A lot of this is going to sound crazy but you’ve gotta hear me out, it’s a step by step process. I’m not saying you should do all of it but you should try some of it” “Step 1 is creating friction. I put all social media and attention hungry apps in a second profile and I can’t understate how much this changed my life. Those 5-6 seconds it takes to switch profiles stops me every time and makes me think, is this what I want to be doing?” “The second thing I did was self hosting. The effect that had on me is I’m not the product anymore. The things I use are mine and because they’re not free, I’m not paying with my privacy. I think the main difference is ads and news don’t reach me” “Next thing I did was disable Shorts, I like YouTube but I hate how Shorts is everywhere I can’t escape it” “Then I unfollowed everyone. You don’t have to do this, this is definitely a me thing, I just got really fed up” “Next, get a DNS blocker. You can remove ads completely, most of it won’t even reach your device” “I think you owe it to yourself to take some time today and start building your tech fence” “These tech companies don’t care about you, so you’ve got to care about yourself. The cheat code is building some friction and filtering out the noise, that’s your defence and your cure”

@Slate It's the most aggressive crackdown on free speech in modern U.S. history.

Donald Trump is easily the worst president for free speech in modern U.S. history, and now there's data to prove it.

@ProjectLiberal Sounds like taking action to enforce it won't be an issue then.

@JamieBonkiewicz It doesn't

Reminder: if voting requires a $165 passport, that’s a poll tax. We made those unconstitutional in 1964.

#GNOME 50 is scheduled for Mar 18, completely removing #X11 support. The once widespread DE is now systemd-only and Wayland-only. If you doubt that "GNOME knows best" and like to stay on X11, we have a section "Desktop Environments" on our "Are We XLibre Yet?" page. #desktop-environments" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/X11Libre/xserv…

@lauriewired Humans are pretty dense. We also have to sleep and cant be run continuously.

I’ve always wondered about the possibility of a “pulsed” computer. That is, a computer so dense, either due to thermal or electrical limits, it can’t be run continuously. Kind of like a camera flash, intense burst, then a recovery period. Turns out, it sorta exists.

@ScottRanda39328 @ActualCorn @peterboghossian Read up on the goal of street epistemology en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Street_Ep…

@psymin @ActualCorn @peterboghossian This so-called "street epistemology" of his is just Boghossian steering conversations with hapless people towards his predetermined conclusions. He doesn't address bias, he amplifies it. What a joke.

I'd like to invite someone on my show to refute this data, argue the methodology, present alternative explanations, etc. Serious and qualified people only. If you have to ask what's qualified, then you're not qualified. Post your X handle and a brief bio below. Thanks

@ActualCorn @peterboghossian Check out his street epistemology stuff. All sorts of biased ideas full of propaganda gets discussed. It is kind of the whole point.

@psymin @peterboghossian He wants to have *uninformed* conversations that he feels *propagate* his personal *biases* so that he can *profit*

@ScottRanda39328 @ActualCorn @peterboghossian Look at some of his street epistemology stuff. He addresses all sorts of biased and propaganda claims. By design and intention.

@psymin @ActualCorn @peterboghossian The only problem with your theory is that this is not "data", it's propaganda

@TheDesertLynx @nikitabier If X insists on continuing to use attestation, they should implement support for standard Android hardware attestation which can be used to support GrapheneOS. Details are available at grapheneos.org/articles/attes…. X shouldn't disallow devices not licensing Google Mobile Services.
