  1. @dajbelshaw interesting journey!

    What comes to my mind when comparing #5G with 4G: 5G has (by design) lower range and higher electricity consumption.

    Interesting is also the difference between classic copper #boradband and full fibre connection. The later is not only faster but also has a better #co2 footprint.

    So, your friend did a good catch with the full fibre connection.

    Stripped down to the lowest common denomination? I suppose it assists the #algorithm
    Personally, I find this increasing need & reliance on #ai to be worrying in the extreme.
    I am very much with #rushkoff on this one, be on #teamhuman. #educationisahumanright

  4. @dajbelshaw I have no disagreement with the historical data that remains, without a bias or #whitewash that is!
    Equally, I have no doubt that our modern & apparently "well structured, ordered society" is standing on the edge of a very large cliff...
    The epoch of the #anthopocene is upon us & there is #noplanetb - but as another adversely identified individual was well known for saying, "be the change, you wish to see in the world."

  5. @dajbelshaw a few sweeping generalisations there, no? #absenceofcolour #AllLifeMatters
    I do however question the use of the phrase "identify as..." #healthcareforall

    I'm not looking forward to when I need to help our son with #math, despite getting good grades myself at the time.
    Fortunately he's only 2, so I have plenty of time to revise material myself. 😂
    It's one of the many things learnt at school that I basically chucked out of my mind for things I deemed more useful to my daily life the moment I graduated...

    (Though looking at what the #demoscene is doing with #GLSL in a #ShaderShowdown makes me regret doing that with some of it...)

    WoW. shocked am I.
    @mayel are you guyz still working together? #commonspub
    & what remains open??

    Hi Doug, hope all is well. Any updates on #moodlenet I have been unable to login with the login I had from #beta any chance of a readd?

  9. @dajbelshaw you definitely have some good titles on there, so I'll have to 'steal' some of your suggestions. :)
    #Contact, #DonnieDarko, #EternalSunshineOfTheSpotlessMind, #TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughTime ¹ (there are multiple versions of that btw, from live-action to anime), #TheInventionOfLying, #Memento, #ShortCircuit and #VanillaSky are ones I've seen once or twice already, but definitely wouldn't mind rewatching.

  10. @dajbelshaw my top recommendation would be Jerome Bixby's "The Man From Earth" (2007) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_ (The Man from Earth is a 2007 science fiction film written by Jerome Bixby and directed by Richard Schenkman. #TheManFromEarth stars David Lee Smith as John Oldman, the protagonist of the story, a man who claims to be a Cro-Magnon, a 14.000 years old Magdalenian caveman.)

    I've written some brief notes about other #films such as #TheBox and #TheLakeHouse over at fixato.net/film_reviews.txt

  11. @dajbelshaw nobody has to justify themselves to anyone else, ever. Totally agree that the ideology of the internet as a permanent kangaroo court -where everyone is on trial and everyone else is judge, jury, and executioner - is a cancer. #JonRonson did a really good #TEDTalk about how destructive this #PublicShaming culture can be:

    If I recall correctly, #Friendica uses ! as a prefix for mentioning Friendica Forum names.

    Then there's of course IRC, where # basically comes from as a network-wide channel name prefix. Some #ircd software supports & as prefix for local (as in server-only, rather than network-wide) channels.

    Since many in this thread are familiar with the #DoOO space and are on WordPress, I'll mention that I've been tinkering with a few plugins that make my personal website look like a stand alone instance/server of Mastodon where the only user is me. Some details here: boffosocko.com/2022/04/25/5580 and I'll mention that I'm happy to help anyone who needs help trying to set the plugins up.

  14. RT WeAreOpenCoop: RT dajbelshaw: My co-op colleagues and I are in the midst of creating an email-based course on successful remote meetings. This isn't procedural stuff; it's the meta things that leaders need to know to run them well.

  15. T minus 30 until @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] and I will begin our breakout session at #badgesummit ! You can use the hashtag #keepbadgesweird to introduce yourself, tell us what you’re think and/or just be generally weird.

  16. Time for my #introduction ✊🏼

    My day job is about managing the space where formal education meets Wikimedia in Sweden.

    I'm an open education advocate and I share my Wikipedia skills with whomever may seek them. Based in Stockholm.

    I joined social.coop because an alternative needs to be governed differently and great people like @clhendricksbc and @dajbelshaw have only ever led me to good stuff.

  17. Every platform seems to want either:

    a) participants to register before even seeing the page which outlines which evidence is required,

    or

    b) to charge a whole load of money for custom branding, turning yourself into a mini-university or similar

    This is not what the original dream of Open Badges was all about, and definitely not

  18. Didn't have space to also mention that I worked at Moodle as PM for which was originally going to be a federated social network for educators sharing openly-licensed resources, and has been forked / evolved into something quite different with @bonfire!

    I've been into since the early days of bitttorrent and am a big believer in the political, social, and technical benefits of peer-to-peer and non-hierarchical relations 🤩

  19. 👋 Hi, I'm Doug and I live in the northeast of England. I'm a husband, father, and member of a co-operative I helped get started six years ago.

    I work at the intersection of learning, technology, and community. I've previously been an independent consultant, worked at Mozilla on and , and in schools as a teacher and Higher Education as a researcher/analyst.
