Have you seen this news?

#Mastodon just got funding to add end to end encryption into their software.

So, some time next year, you’ll be able to send truly private messages to the vast majority of the #Fediverse

Im so excited about this.

Because it’s an open spec, this opens the doors for every Fediverse app to join the party.

Yesterday, this project was a proof of concept. Today, Mastodon has turned it into a stampede.

As an immigrant living in Australia I wouid just like to put it on record, on social media, that Angus Taylor is a deadshit.

Ffs, you might as well have started it with "mirror mirror on the wall"
Of course it's going to tell you exactly what you wanted to hear you fucking numpties.

I came a across this: The Millionaire (Millioner), part of the Soviet “American Imperialist” propaganda series, designed to mock Western capitalism and reinforce socialist ideology. Release Year: 1963.

It's really quite funny.

We have reached “The Gospel is woke” stage of American fascism. The resentment and lust for power are all consuming.

Nobody is liking or sharing my shitposts. Mastodon must have restricted my reach until I verify my account!

When I did some reading on the current situation, I found a lot of sites out of Australia that were repeating this "base load" idea, in the context of nuclear power.

I suspect that this is fossil-fuel propaganda.

Fossil fuel companies love promoting nuclear power because they know it takes decades to get a reactor built (if it gets built at all), and in the meantime, everyone keeps using fossil fuels.

It's the perfect way to cripple renewables without being obvious about it.

"2SER, or Sydney Educational Radio, is owned by the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) and Macquarie University, the latter of which announced it would withdraw its funding for the station this year."

Community radio has been a major chunk of my upbringing, and having been involved, this one hits hard.
