"In 1999, I interviewed Prince for TIME and he told me to leave my tape recorder off because he didn’t trust what future technology might do with unauthorized recordings of his voice.
At the time, I thought Prince was being paranoid ... I realize now that Prince wasn’t paranoid, he was prescient."
Hello UK #GreenParty members on here: I would really like the Green Party to set up on #Mastodon. Our local party (closed down after last election by somewhat erratic unilateral decision) has just reestablished and it is all X, FB and Insta. I have suggested Mastodon but noone knows it. I will work on it locally but is there any way to take it to the top somehow? Can we get together on here to write an email? Any suggestions welcome. #UKpolitics
I'm rather certain I've posted this one before. but looking at this picture pleases me so much, I decided to share it again

j'ai une question con (ou pas) aux gens de la technique qui font de l'avant vente.
vous apprenez de votre côté à mettre en place un outil qui se retrouve au catalogue de services de votre boîte. vous en faites aussi la démo et l'avant vente (avec un commercial pour l'approche initial)
le commercial touche sa part de commission, vous n'avez rien et on ne vous en parle même pas, d'avoir une commission.
vous estimez ça :

Just so EVERYONE understands this:
Moderna has a flu shot. It works. It works well. It is safe. It is safe in people with compromised immune systems (like cancer patients!).
Trump’s nutjob at FDA, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., appears to have ordered FDA to refuse to even accept the application to review the shot for approval.

I was just sitting on the sofa, considering what to do about dinner, when some guy whose face I didn’t see came up my steps and put something in my mailbox. He had a blue heeler waiting at the water bowl. By the time I got up and opened the door, they were gone. And this was in the box. 1/

“Many doctors have also criticized Dr. Attia’s credentials: He completed medical school and spent several years as a resident in general surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, but dropped out before the residency was over, then left the medical field to work at McKinsey & Company and an energy company before opening his health care practice. He is not board certified in any specialty.”

7.9.0 — Spring Cleaning 🪣🧹
Hi @activitypub.blog @pfefferle , the plugin is not publishing my blog (danstonchat.com) posts anymore on #actitiypub : @danstonchat.com
Last post here is from Jan 24, but since then, I published 4 posts on the website. They do not appear on any instance afaik.
The blog is hosted on wordpress.com (business plan) and always up-to-date.
Is there something I should check / do?
Thanks for any help! 🙏
do you use the classic or the block editor!?
if should default to "Public", the only exception is if you edit an old post that was not federated before... do you have a plugin that might hook into the publishing process and add an old date before it gets published?
Block editor. ;)
Yes, the thing is, my website is based on user generated content, so users can submit posts, they are in a queue as "pending", and then, if good enough, I edit and publish them.
I guess the "visibility" setting did not exist before, and it is set to "do not federate" for old posts or posts that are not public?
It's been too long since I took a good photo with the bass guitar, so here is one from rehearsal yesterday.💜
My favourite bass line right now is probably from Feel Good Inc,by Gorillaz, which has also become my go-to to sing at Karaoke.
Can you recommend cool bass lines for beginners?

2026-01-14: Il giorno in cui telnet morì
Il 14 gennaio 2026, il traffico #telnet globale osservato dai sensori di GreyNoise è crollato. Una riduzione sostenuta del 59%, diciotto ASN completamente silenziosi e cinque paesi completamente scomparsi dai nostri dati. Sei giorni dopo, la CVE-2026-24061 è scomparsa. La coincidenza è una delle possibili spiegazioni.
