A quotation from Samuel Johnson
There is nothing more dreadful to an author than neglect, compared with which reproach, hatred, and opposition are names of happiness; yet this worse, this meanest fate, every one who dares to write has reason to fear.
Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic

Ah, Meta's grand tradition of ignoring #authority continues! 🎭 The #EU wants a word, but Meta's got its fingers in its ears, busy perfecting the art of #ghosting an entire continent. 🌍 Maybe they think "EU" is short for "easily unbothered." 🥴

#Aerial #lidarmapping allows #archaeologists to efficiently #map large areas with archaeologically relevant structures. However, the #article cited in the appendix #critically examines the fact that this increasingly occurs over the heads of #indigenous #tribes, whose way of life and traditional #knowledge are at risk of being #overlooked and #ignored. This raises not only #ethical questions.

The Case for Dumping FaceBook and Threads
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Yesterday afternoon I was trolled by an American account of a person living in Germany. I commented on the absurdity of bicycle lanes that are just two hundred meters long and the troll account said "be happy to have that". I felt like answering in a hostile manner. I refrained from doing this. I deleted my threads account instead.
You might see this as overkill, but there is something to be said about dumping toxic antisocial media sites. We invest our time and attention on Facebook, Twitter, Bluesky and Threads and if we report accounts, over and over, only to be told that they do not breach their codes of conduct rules, then they have squandered their chance to keep us as customers.
Months ago I reported troll accounts spreading hate and hostility towards cyclists and eventually I was ghosted. Instead of being sad, and offended, I deactivated my account, and I haven't missed Facebook (FB) since. The reality of the situation is that if we are on a social networks we use it to be surrounded by like minded people. We are there to have a good time, and we are there for a sense of community.
When I was trolled on Threads, yesterday afternoon Facebook owned Threads breached the social contract, by tolerating these accounts. It's not that you're trolled once a week, or once a month. It is that you are trolled on a daily basis.
Algorithmic Noise
I believe that the problem with trolls on FB, TW and Threads is based on algorithms. Until 2020 or earlier we followed people, and we chose what we saw. We chose whether to look at one topic, or one thread. We chose who we followed, and that shaped who else we saw. In algorithmic "social" media we see what algorithms want us to see. We see the lowest common denominator.
The consequence of this algorithmic skewing of what we see affects two things. It affects how complicated it is to find a community, because who we follow has no effect on what we see, but it also forces us to see accounts that we don't want to see in the first place.
The result is that this noise, over time becomes toxic, and that toxic noise impacts how happy, or hostile we are. Eventually we all become toxic, as a result of using Threads and Facebook. That's why I dumped Facebook, and Threads. I don't want to be hostile, or toxic. I know that by reducing the time I spend on FB and Threads it has a positive impact on my mental well being.
A Two Way Street
If Facebook owned social media sites and apps want to keep us, they need to respect us as individuals, and stop seeing us as addicted users. They need to respect our morals and values, and work towards helping preserve Human Rights, rather than demeaning them. As I write this Facebook, whitewashed as Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content. Facebook has to respect its users, if it wants to retain its monopoly.
And Finally
Too many social media sites forget that they are social networks first, and social media second. By this I mean that social media, without social networks is just broadcasting. It's just a one way, passive flow of information. Terms like "doom scrolling" reflect this passive approach to social media. Social media has a social network underlying the site or app.
If the social network is forgotten about, as was the case with Facebook, and Threads, and Twitter, then users leave. They disengage, and then the site becomes a ghost, as is the case of Flickr, Yahoo and Myspace, to name a few.
Why should we use social media sites that do not respect us?

[Psychology log] So, I've detected two narcissists on TikTok now. The other one refused to acknowledge that they dislike me; the other one engaged (liking and replying) to others' comments and praises but not from me. It's important to remember that, since the information I get is very limited, I can only assume: they are controlling me to stop engaging with them. Their content always appears on my FYP.

Wake up #veterans and get your head out of the sand. (Out of your 4 points of contact, in other words, your ass)
I say this because I AM a #veteran and the silence is deafning. #Homeless people have been under attack for years, but now they are coming for everyone else and homeless people are still #ignored. -

The poor man’s conscience is clear; yet he is ashamed. His character is irreproachable, yet he is neglected and despised. He feels himself out of the sight of others, groping in the dark. Mankind takes no notice of him: he rambles and wanders unheeded. In the midst of a crowd, at church, in the market, at a play, at an execution or coronation, he is in as much obscurity as he would be in a garret or a cellar. He is not disapproved, censured, or reproached: he is only not seen. This total inattention is to him, mortifying, painful and cruel. […] To be wholly overlooked, and to know it, are intolerable.

As Donald #Trump returned to Michigan to speak about crime, he deliberately #ignored #the #truth:
Crime is down.
Standing under a banner that read “Make America Safe Again” on Tuesday,
Trump spoke about law and order and a so-called “Kamala crime wave”
occurring at levels “nobody has ever seen before.”
But when journalists tried to ask him about that claim, #he #got #scared.According to The Detroit News, the Trump team had originally agreed to sit down for an interview with their newspaper Tuesday.
However, ❇️after reporters pushed the former president about spreading lies about Michigan’s crime data, “a campaign aide said 🆘the presidential candidate no longer had time for an interview after the speech.”Data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation doesn’t show any crime wave phenomenon.
In the two years since the former president left office, violent crime has continued to 👍drop and return to pre-pandemic levels.
Michigan specific data also fails to show any spike in violent crime under a Democratic administration.
Homicides in Detroit are down to their lowest total since 1966, according to police data reviewed by The Detroit News.
⭐️But Trump doesn’t want to talk about that. So much so that he’s dodging interviews with local journalists about crime.
“Facts don’t matter when it comes to him,” Democratic state Representative Tyrone Carter, a former sheriff, told TheDetroit News. “It’s about telling a story that benefits you"https://newrepublic.com/post/185107/trump-abandons-interview-michigan-crime-talking-point

Broadcast news and major papers failed to cover report of possible Egyptian bribery involving Trump
NBC, ABC, CBS, as well as the LA Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal, all ignored the reportingBroadcast news and several top newspapers #ignored reporting on an investigation by the Department of Justice into Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign for allegedly ♦️receiving $10 million from Egypt in the days before the 2016 election, ♦️a move which would have violated a federal law that bans U.S. candidates from taking foreign funds.
Since the initial report on August 2, there have only been 4 unique articles about the probe in 5 of the top national papers, and broadcast news networks have completely failed to cover it.

Sadly this all feels like the drawn out #Karma of #FeelTheBern
We had a chance for better and it was #squandered #ignored #misrepresented #gaslighted
We could have been just finishing up the 2nd term of #PresidentSanders living in a more compassionate society.
What are we worthy of?
Some only want to bring the end of times upon us. Somehow they believe they will survive that.
If god and or Jesus is going to bring someone to us to do 'gods work' it's going to be about love and compassion and assisting the healing of the societies of the world and bringing it together - not vengenace and destroying it.
Why don't people get that?

One might think that #European 🇪🇺 launch officials would have learned their lesson. But not everyone got 🦻 the message. The #Ariane6 will cost 💰 significantly more 📈 than the #Falcon9 rocket, which has similar capabilities. It likely will not realistically compete with a fully reusable Falcon 9. To say #Starship will not be a game-changer represents the same head-in-the-sand attitude displayed a decade ago.
