Since I'm on a brand new instance (#littlefedi) it's probably appropriate to do a reintroduction!

I'm a cis-gay man. I work in Canberra, Australia in education as the head of English, Humanities and Languages. I'm interested in the following topics:

#RolePlayingGames
#Education
#ClimateChange
#Permaculture
#Sustainability
#BasicIncome
#OpenSourceSoftware
#LGBTQIA+
#Antifa
#LittleFedi
#Canberra

Thanks to @iamkonstantin for the alert about it before something happened to my accounts.

It’s fascinating how some corners of the “Libre Software” movement has no problems with and even eagerly align themselves with fascism.

If free software is more important to you than people, you’re doing it wrong.

@lcamtuf@infosec.exchange I thought we agreed not to talk about the torment nexus because it might give them ideas.

The image is of a four panel comic. The title reads "Poltergeist". 

In the first panel we see a woman with a worried expression on her face. She says, "stuff keeps moving around my house." 

In the second panel the same woman says "I'm terrified. I can't sleep." 

In the third panel we see a ghost holding a candle and a pillow that reads "live laugh love". The ghost is zooming through the house. 

In the fourth panel we see the same ghost hanging up a frame and thinking, "home decor is my passion".

The look on 20-year-old-me's face when he finds out that 50-year-old-me is joining the Butlerian Jihad on the side of the Catholic Pope.

Once again Pope Leo XIV has rejected idea of Anthropic that Claude has a soul. He went one step ahead and called to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

For those who don't know Anthropic did privately lobby Vatican advisers to take the idea of AI consciousness (Soul) seriously, but Pope Leo XIV completely rejected the idea, firmly stating that AI does not possess a soul, feelings, or a moral conscience telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/

Tweet from the official Pope Leo XIV (@Pontifex) reads:

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

I’m not telling you that you have to boycott everything. You are allowed to live in the modern world. To have a problematic fave. To not approach every consumer choice like it’s a hill you have to die on.

But you can afford to put Harry Potter down.

Kid: It says "5 potatoes cubed" which is 125 potatoes.

Me: No. It's still 5 potatoes, because potatoes are a root vegetable.

Something I really like about #LittleFedi is the catch-up feature. It provides a selection of posts according to some weightings without it leaking into your main timeline. I used to love the firehose of information that Twitter provided, and this really scratches the same itch.
