Also consider the form of these savings. Keeping everything in financial assets might be very dangerous on the very long term. The chances of a world war and/or a financial collapse of the West are relatively high and you don’t want a hyperinflation crisis to destroy all your savings. It happened in Germany, it is happening again in some parts of the world, it will happen again.

Hello. Thanks for the input. We know most of these and TWC is globally under a process of moving towards a self-hosted infrastructure. We have a self-hosted url shortener, but we still have to structure a process to guarantee that the social media teams use them.

For the calls, Zoom is pretty entrenched in our infrastructure, but we plan to eventually replace it. For obvious reasons of hardware performance, we are keeping it as one of the last steps, because we often organize webinars with 100+ people, and our current infrastructure probably wouldn’t handle it with like a jitsi instance or similar.

The security party is also intended as a way to attract people who could bring more expertise on these topics into the infrastructure team and accelerate this transition.

yes. The event is on an American time zone so I kept the American format. We might repeat it on an European time zone if there’s interest.

This article is childish and naive.

The role of these articles is to distract from the fact that the Left is so incompetent that the only entity capable of profiting from an insurrection within a reactionary regime is the USA. The blame is on the Left, not on the insurrection.

This kind of content is just morphine for Leftists who want to keep the Left powerless.

which expands the group of people that can do this from mobile cybersec people to anybody with some foundations of IT management skills

CET, it’s in the title

I guess here the topic is more of insurrections, like what’s happening in Iran right now or how it went on in HK

I have no clue what you believe this event is actually about and why people go there.

Freedom of information is freedom for the most powerful to use that information for their profit. The more powerful you are, the more tools you have to harness common goods for profit.

God forbid a technical person becomes an adult and starts understanding power, money, and politics. Engineers should be babies playing with their toys and being idealistic and irresponsible about their impact on the world.

We don’t need to involve racism, an American pseudo-science, to consider Americans barbarians. That’s what an American would do: to reduce everything about race when it has nothing to do with it.

Also, it’s white guilt, we all know American liberals and leftists enjoy this stuff.

If in 2026 you’re on X, I don’t think privacy would matter much to you. People will go to platforms that give them what X was giving them. Mastodon doesn’t offer porn, it doesn’t offer visibility to journalists, it does offer a little of bit of arguing with strangers, but definitely nowhere near the levels of X, where you can do it at any time of the day. Bluesky is still the best alternative on all these points.

We cut ties with American people because they are annoying, puritanical and self-entitled.

Saying shit like this is very American, for example.

Include anche la lingua inglese. Da adesso su Lemmy si parla solo Italiano.

Met two people from Transnistria, one from the Isle of Man and one from Micronesia. I wouldn’t say they are super rare but I’m quite sure most American would consider these fictional countries.

In Italian it’s not really used. There’s an extremely fringe group of people who use singular pronouns “Io” (I) but plural adjectives and participles. “Io sono andati” instead of “Io sono andato” or “Io sono stanchi” instead of “Io sono stanco”.

These are regarded as people who spend too much time on Tumblr and consume American media even within the most militant corners of the transfeminist movement, so it doesn’t have much traction.

Most of the discourse is about gender-neutral language rather than pronouns.

To add to the confusion, Italian has no neutral gender, only male and female, but it retains neutral pronouns: esso/essi. The problem is that by ending in “o”, most people think this is an alternative masculine pronoun and use it interchangeably with the masculine pronouns “egli” or “lui”.

because Facebook trained an LLM on Libgen data. I mean, I wouldn’t be surprised if at some point some big tech considered to at least fund some of these projects through side-channels, because nowadays open source and liberation of information means free lunches for American big tech, but that’s very different from Anna’s archive being a psyop to externalize content theft.
