"If your brother has become poor, and his hand can’t support himself among you, then you shall uphold him. He shall live with you like an alien and a temporary resident. Take no interest from him or profit; but fear your God, that your brother may live among you. You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God."

@M0YNG Your instance looks like it's right up my alley! Will check up with you guys from time to time.

I've got dreams guys! Would love to break ground on our house this year, but time is flying by. I've done much larger projects, but not with my own $. It is a bit scary.

@d4klutz Did you close yet?

I don't take this stuff too seriously, but this made me lol!

@dallin@librem.one People talk about how big of a deal a woman/black President or VP would be, but a real miracle would be any person from a third party.

@maxamillion @Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org What do you think the odds are that I can get my 15yo daughter and her friends to get this stuff and care?

@b2e@theres.life Once they either own or can put enough pressure on hosting companies it's game over, unless you want mesh/sneaker nets...pretty much no one has time or understanding for that.

Just signed up for RonPaulCurriculum.com
I have no idea if I'm getting a good deal yet, but thought the risk might be worth it. I will update on my findings. How crazy am I?

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org @maxamillion You're not wrong. I think the devices you want are coming or can be MacGyver'ed together. The real problem are the ecosystems that have become pervasive throughout society and the world. Even if we get the devices we want, it will be, "Play by our rules or you get cut off" from the vast majority of the net and businesses who are all in on these ecosystems. It's what is happening with these cashless businesses and credit card companies. My money is no good?

@Floppy Here is Tolkien reading it!

@maxamillion a Linux tablet with enough horsepower could do a lot, especially if connecting it to keyboards and monitors was easy. Still would want a NAS of some kind.

Hot!

One of my favorite underrated movies, and in light of recent events maybe a little appropriate. When I used to hang out with my grandfather as a kid doing Ham radio, he really taught me the value in communication. Nowadays we take it for granted, Fediverse included.

FYI, Paul Harrell has a great YouTube channel if you want to educate yourself on firearms.

Just woke up from a crazy dream where @Gargron had set up a James Hallidayesque competition on the Fediverse and me and the friends were having a great time...then Heidi woke me up🙂
