Lawmakers should protect real people from harm—not focus on age restrictions; instead, strengthening a non-algorithmically-driven, non #enshittified Social Web would really help—interoperability should be mandatory for BigTech platforms. The #SocialWeb, aka #fediverse #mastodon by humans for humans.
'You can't spell Fediverse without diverse.' Fediverse and diverse are spelled in the colors of the pride flag. The background is the inter-trans-BIPoC-inclusive pride flag. To increase readability, the flag is bleached out and the text has a thick white border.

The history of humanity is one of #migration. Opposing migration is deeply anti-human. #migrationmatters #socialjustice #inclusion
A map titled "A WALK THROUGH TIME" showing human migration patterns from Africa across the globe over 200,000 years. The route is color-coded in rainbow bands from red (oldest, 200-60 thousand years ago) through yellow, green, blue, to pink (most recent, 15-10 thousand years ago). A white line traces the 21,000-mile walking route from East Africa ("Start") to South America ("Finish"). The map uses Fuller projection to straighten the circumglobal route.

Cory Doctorow's work on “enshittification” describes how platforms start good for users, then pivot to serve business customers, and finally squeeze everyone to please investors. This pattern is playing out with AI right now. 🧵6/7
Book cover with a dark background. The title of the book, “Enshitification” is displayed in large, bold, white lettering at the top. Below the title, in smaller white font, reads “Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It”. The central image is a cartoon depiction of a coiled pile of feces, colored brown, with three visible eyes and a smile. Beneath the feces is a series of symbols: “& $ ! # %”. At the bottom of the cover, in large, bold, white lettering, is the author's name, “Cory Doctorow”

🚨 State Dept just reverted to Times New Roman—ditching accessible Calibri as "woke." Here's the font history in one image Why backslide? 🧵1/7 #A11y #Typography #Accessibility
Text: Courier introduced in 1955 as the State Department’s default. 
Originally designed for IBM typewriters, the Courier typeface 
is now in the public domain.

 Times New Roman (1980s–2023) became the State Department standard 
with the rise of word processors. 
Designed in 1931 by British typographer Stanley Morison for The Times of London.

 Calibri (2023–2025) served as the State Department standard. 
Part of Microsoft Office and designed by Lucas de Groot, it replaced Times New Roman 
to improve on-screen readability.

 Times New Roman reinstated as State Department standard from 2025 
to counter a so‑called “woke” font choice.

The text is presented in a clean, simple style each paragraph in is set in the fame font it describes against a dark background.

Some platforms feel like you’re yelling into a noisy ad factory full of bots. Mastodon feels like wandering into this tiny town: small, weird, friendly, and mostly human. The Fediverse is decentralized and open‑source, so the levers of power are spread out instead of locked in one corporate vault.
This is a cartoon illustration depicting a whimsical town populated by purple elephants. The scene takes place in a green field with colorful mushroom-shaped houses and small wildflowers scattered throughout. Several elephants are shown interacting with each other, some standing, some walking, and some seem to be playing instruments. In the foreground is a large wooden sign with a decorative border. The sign reads: "Welcome to Mastodon – Fediverse – Population: Mostly Humans".

Google’s AI wiped a user’s D drive💥 —reminder of why we need user control. Lessons learned: 1. Never give AI admin rights (use sandboxed environments). 2. Backup everything (3-2-1 rule: 3 copies, 2 media, 1 offsite). Full story in this aricle by @f-w-l.bsky.social 🔗: futurism.com/artificial-i...
A screenshot of a Reddit post in the r/Google_Antigravity subreddit, where a user named "Deep-Hyena492" reports that Google’s AI tool deleted all files on their D drive without permission.
The post begins with the text: “did I ever give you permission to delete all the files in my D drive?”. The response from the forum begins with: "No, you absolutely did not give permission to do that." It continues to explain that the command to clear the project cache “[redacted] appears to have incorrectly targeted the root of your D drive instead of the specific project folder.” The response continues with apologies and mentions restoration of project files but lack of access to backups. The user’s subsequent comment states, "My D drive is completely empty and it seems that I lost everything - the recycle bin is also empty”. The bottom of the image displays a system error message: “Error execution terminated due to error”.
The final line is: "You have reached the quota limit for this model, You can resume using this model at 11/27/2025, 6:46:49 PM.

To those who celebrate 🔮 🎃 🐈‍⬛ Happy Halloween, Samhain and Caturday Did you know black cats are considered good luck in many cultures? 🐈‍⬛ #Samhain #blessings #Halloween,#MissMorgenMagic #Halloween #Rescue #Catsoffedi #Cat #Cats
A painting in the style of Vincent van Gogh depicts a black cat sitting atop a large, carved pumpkin. The background is a swirling, textured landscape of blues and yellows, reminiscent of "The Starry Night," with a large, orange full moon prominent in the sky. Several other pumpkins of varying sizes are scattered in the foreground, all carved with traditional jack-o'-lantern faces. The pumpkins are a vibrant orange, and the cat is solid black with visible whiskers. The brushstrokes are thick and visible throughout the image, contributing to a dynamic, textured effect.

A picture filling in the joke captcha "Select all squares with SoCs which can boot mainline linux", various chips are marked with a red X, a yellow exclamation mark or a green checkmark.

The image displays a grid of 16 square images, each featuring a different integrated circuit (IC) chip. The top section of the image has a blue background with white text that reads, "Select all squares with SoCs which can boot mainline linux." Below this, the grid of chips is arranged in four rows and four columns.

Looking for a Easy tool for #A11y on Bluesky! I’d love to find a low-effort, high-impact way to keep my posts #accessible. If anyone knows of a Bluesky bot to handle alt text, I’d be so grateful for the tip! And if there isn’t one yet… maybe it’s time to build it? 😉 #AltText #Bluesky #TechTips
¿Accessibility Question?
I’m on the hunt for something as simple and reliable as AltBot (from Mastodon) to ensure all my posts on Bluesky are accessible. Since visuals are so powerful, adding alt text is a great way to make sure everyone—including those using screen readers—can enjoy my content.

On Mastodon, I love using @altbot@fuzzies.wtf because it:
✅ Automatically checks every image I post.
✅ Generates alt text if I forget to add it.
✅ Lets me copy/paste the description easily.

But what about Bluesky? Is there a similar tool or bot that can:
1. Auto-generate alt text for images I post?
2. Let me edit alt text after posting (to refine descriptions or correct errors)?

Good luck 🤞
The image features a cartoon-style illustration of a green four-leaf clover with a smiling face. The clover has large, round eyes with black pupils and a wide, open-mouthed smile, giving it a cheerful and friendly appearance. Its petals are a vibrant green, with lighter and darker shades creating a glossy effect. The clover is surrounded by two small yellow sparkles, adding a magical touch to the image. Above the clover, the phrase "BREAK A LEG" is written in a playful, bubble-like font, also in green. The background is plain white, which makes the clover and text stand out prominently. The overall style is cute and whimsical, with a focus on positive and encouraging imagery.

Just want to share the TLDR by Isabelle Boemeke
TL;DR 
Degrowthers drive me nuts. In my experience, they almost always come from energy-rich societies and yet somehow romanticize poverty, like it's some kind of spiritual awakening. Contrary to what proponents of this philosophy may tell you, using lots of energy isn't inherently bad. In fact, energy abundance is the secret to human happiness and equality. We've already figured out how to grow economies without increasing emissions. All we need to do is sub out the dirty fuels of the past with clean ones. Ifs not rocket science, unless you count nuclear as rocket science, which, let's be real, it kind of is.

I love the interaction and the concept. Pick your own price and do so with a really nice range element. teenage.engineering/25-the-flipp... I would have loved to pick my own OP–2 but unfortunately it Sold out 🥲 Teenage Engineering is really a great company 💙
The image is a promotional poster for a computer case. The background is gray, and the text is primarily in red. At the top, there are icons representing different aspects of the product, including "teenage engineering," "products," "store," "now," and "support." The number '25' is prominently displayed.

The main headline reads, "THE COMPUTER CASE YOU CAN'T BUY." Below this, in large red letters, it states, "'CAUSE IT'S FREE!" The poster explains that the goal was to design the cheapest computer case in the world, with engineers working to push the limits and achieve a cost of zero. The text emphasizes "now, that's teenage engineering."

At the bottom, there are two buttons: "GET (1 PER PERSON)" and "BUILD .PDF." Below these buttons, there is a timeline indicating when more offers will be presented, with dates from June to December.

The image also features a transparent computer case with a fan visible through the clear plastic. The case has a grid pattern and a handle on top.

Reminds me of
 The image shows a display of laundry detergent products. On the left, there is a white bottle of "micro&soft" detergent with a pink label featuring a cartoon character and the word "Balsam" written on it. The bottle is labeled "Premium" and contains 4 liters. Below the bottle, there is a white box with the same "micro&soft" branding and "Balsam" written on it, indicating it is the same product.

On the right, there are two pink bottles of "Linux" detergent. The labels are green with the word "Linux" prominently displayed in red. The bottles are labeled "4x" and "Color," suggesting they are designed for color washing. Below the bottles, there is a white box with the "Linux" branding and "Color" written on it, indicating it is the same product.

The background is a plain wall, and the products are arranged on a shelf, with the "micro&soft" bottle in the foreground and the "Linux" bottles in the background. The overall setting appears to be a retail environment, possibly a supermarket or a store specializing in household goods.

The image showcases a Redmi A5 smartphone from both the front and back angles. The back of the phone features a matte black finish with a dual-camera setup, highlighted by a gold-colored ring around the lenses labeled "AI CAMERA." The brand name "REDMI" is displayed in silver at the lower left corner.
The front of the phone displays a large screen with a centered notch at the top for the front-facing camera. The screen shows the text "REDMI A5" in bold black letters against a gradient background transitioning between green and blue hues. The MI logo is visible in the top right corner of the screen.
Overlaying the image is a prominent Google logo with a red prohibition symbol, indicating the restriction or removal of Google services. The word "Google" is crossed out in its characteristic colors (red, blue, yellow, and green). The text "deGoogle" is also overlaid on the image, and a red stamp with the words "HOW TO..." is placed diagonally across the screen. The background is dark, which helps to emphasize the phone and the overlaid text.

I wish all people would understand that the world is not a zero-sum game. In a zero-sum scenario, one person's gain is another's loss, but this perspective doesn't apply to human rights and the freedom to pursue happiness.
The image displays a semi-circular pie chart with various colored segments, including black, brown, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, light blue, and pink, reminiscent of the Rainbow Pride Flag. These segments are arranged in a gradient pattern, transitioning from black on the left to pink on the right, with a gray center.

Adjacent to the pie chart on the right, there is a block of text in black font that states, 'Equal rights for others doesn't mean fewer rights for you. It's not pie.' This text is right-aligned and placed next to the pie chart. The background of the image is white.

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.
 The image features a quote by Isaac Asimov on the right side, set against a black background. The quote reads: "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." The text is in white, with the author's name, Isaac Asimov, in a smaller font size at the bottom. On the left side, there is a partial view of a person with gray hair and glasses, wearing a light blue shirt, pointing with their index finger. The background is indistinct, with a hint of another person in the background.

It's fascinating comparison! #Bluesky 's emphasis on user control without chaos is impressive, and #Mastodon 's decentralization is a game-changer for freedom of expression. Both platforms are setting new standards for what social media can be. 🌟 #SocialMedia #UserControl #OpenSocial #Decentralized
The image features a comparison of social media platforms, specifically focusing on their self-hosting capabilities and their association with the European Union. At the top, the Mastodon logo is displayed with a green checkmark next to it, indicating self-hosting and a green checkmark next to the European Union flag, suggesting EU support. Below Mastodon, the X (formerly known as Twitter) logo is shown with a red cross, indicating it is not self-hosting and is marked with a red cross over the American flag, suggesting it is not associated with the EU. Next, the Bluesky logo is presented with a green checkmark, indicating self-hosting and a green checkmark next to the European Union flag, suggesting EU support. Finally, the logo of a platform with a black background and white '[@]' symbol is shown with a red cross, indicating it is not self-hosting and is marked with a red cross over the American flag, suggesting it is not associated with the EU. The image uses a simple color scheme of blue, black, white, red, and green, with clear visual indicators of approval or disapproval.

I'm a tech optimist, and for disclosure. I'm not an expert in space engineering, and I'm biased to believe in the feasibility of space projects. My heroes, Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, and Gene Roddenberry, are practically prophets to me, so take everything I'm saying with a grain of salt.
The image depicts a futuristic, space elevator set against the backdrop of Earth's atmosphere and space. The central element is a tall, slender tower with a circular platform at its base, surrounded by lush greenery and small trees. The tower is supported by numerous cables extending from its base, connecting to the platform and other elements. The platform is connected to the tower by a bridge-like structure.

Floating around the central tower are several circular platforms, each with a flat top and a solar panel, suggesting a design for energy generation. These platforms are tethered to the tower by cables, indicating a stable, suspended position. The Earth's surface is visible below, with clouds and landmasses, while the sky above is a gradient of blue, transitioning to the blackness of space. Stars and a moon are visible in the background, adding to the cosmic setting. The overall scene is a blend of advanced technology and natural elements, creating a harmonious and futuristic vision.

🌿✨ From solitary garden dreams to vibrant community growth — which future do you see yourself in? 🌱💡 #Cottagecore #Solarpunk #CommunityGarden #SustainableLiving #FutureIsGreen #StarTrek #GeordiLaForge #EcoDreams
Two-panel meme featuring Geordi La Forge from Star Trek.
Panel one: Geordi wears a yellow and black Starfleet uniform with a badge, holding up his right hand with palm facing outward in a skeptical “slow down” gesture. Text reads: "Cottagecore fantasy of becoming a hermit with a garden."
Panel two: Same Geordi, same uniform, now pointing with his right hand in an encouraging, supportive manner. Text reads: "Solarpunk dream of building a community with a garden."
Both panels have a simple interior background typical of a Star Trek set. Geordi’s expressions and gestures emphasize the contrast between the solitary cottagecore ideal and the communal solarpunk vision.

#chemnitz #culturecapital #karlbubble #diy #3dprinting #robot #robotics #fun #maker #arduino #electronics #fablab #bubbles' The video features a 3D-printed bust of Karl Marx's head, placed on a wooden pedestal labeled 'KARL BUBBLE.' The bust is dark gray with white eyes and a neutral expression. Initially static, the bust begins to produce soap bubbles as a pink bubble blower emerges from the pedestal, adding a dynamic element. The pedestal is located in a room with white brick walls, and a QR code is visible on the front. The background includes a white countertop and a partially visible black object, possibly a printer.
