@mactunag ahhhh you belong to the milk-first school, my grandmother would sneeze at you :D I take a more practical approach, same as cream before jam or jam before cream on scones : whatever tickles your pear, flower ;) <3

We don't have a moral or technology crisis.
IA doesn't do anything that computers didn't do before, it tries to code everything in 1 and 0. What we have is an epistemology crisis. With IA con groups, we're back to the 19th century with the idea that there are Substances and applying logic and a positive comparative method (only what's "similar") allows one to reach the Substances.

But the logic of what, whom and in which context ? Read Popper.

IA is mostly a fraud which'll soon cost lives.

New Zealand has the most beautiful, swift but technically challenging Sword Dance steps. I'm practicing an entire progressive array which ends in a helicopter-worthy turning step which I adore although it makes me braw dizzy

@mactunag aye I think it's better not to engage in reading the ravings of such pitiful shrivelled hearts, we know what revisionist balderdash they're posting and you and me, I reckon, cannot refrain from getting emotions and reacting. Protect yourself, and as for fighting them, well you do that brilliantly by being yourself, posting you things and getting deep into things the way you do ;)
@mactunag oh yes, I think it's called manners ;)

Dear everyone,

It is time to think of yet another year of online learning highland dance, New Zealand style !

Our online lessons will be twice a week:
wednesdays : 19:00 (GMT+2) sailors' hornpipe junior
Fridays : 19:00, single time jig with use of Shillelagh

The prices are :
160€ for once a week
210€ for twice a week

We will additionally try and meet live once a month (in Helsinki, Finland)

Autumn term starts 3rd of September, and ends 19th of December.

Please register asap 😉

I was frustrated at this Latvian koncertkokle for being beautiful, attractive, enticing but way too tensed for my Gaelic harp nails and with unpleasant sharp harmonies when played with nails.
Worked my knowledge and feel on it, lowered the tension, changed some strings and now enjoy its lovely warm bell sound.
I do not feel I am betraying any tradition in here because of how a folk instrument way into someone's hands is an intense individuation experience.
@gunchleoc Tapadh lead, m'eudail, am bhiodh fuis agad ciamar a fhaodaigh mi gluasad gu server ùr, no am feumadh mi tòiseachadh às ùr, agus bith a’ call mo luchd-aithne agus a h-uile càil-seo ?
Went to mastodon because I liked the sensical and firm moderation rules but the .social server I wound in has a very very short character limitation which renders mastodon rather useless to me. I know I could transit to another server but the procedure is very complex, I don't feel up to it and anyways finding an adequate server is rather cryptic. This technical geeking for geeks aspect, methinks, is a massive drawback and repellant for fediverse, feels a bit elitist... sigh...
@mactunag ohh the fun ... cannae shake a feeling, given its quite obvious they don't really care about kids at all otherwise, that our dear puritan governments are keen on realising loads and loads of lovely files about who goes to get exited at what, who plays what, sees what, etc... the age verification eu and uk promised was to be double anonymous, but so far it's only single, the sites don't get infos but the official app sure does... sigh ...
