Well, yes, point well made. I was, however, referring to him not understanding at all what the words mean and needing an explainer.

We've seen this before. Guy with no understanding of environment gets morally outraged and declares war on environment. Environment laughs and proceeds to starve guy of attention and resources. Guy decomposes into algae in a dark cave, alone, crying. Environment uses algae to feed more fascists. Nazis win. LOL

I won't belabour the point, I think I've made it well enough.

As for proprietary technology, I mostly agree, as long as we don't vilify an inventor's right to make money off his inventions.

you can understand at least the top layer
i mean, knowing that your car uses combustion to push a piston is not exactly rocket science

> the majority of people treat digital technology like enchanted rune stones

Then they should not have access to that technology, as a rule.

Even for life-saving necessities, mainly because they can't maintain it. You go and install a high-tech desalination plant in an african village, don't expect it to work 6 months later. You have to stay there. Well, since you're there how about training a few of the locals to maintain it?

Internet-enabled mobile phones: we give them to people and just let them loose on their own. No knowledge of privacy, online etiquette, social media effects, dealing with abuse, etc.

Cars: I talked about this already. If you can't change your tyre, you shouldn't be driving.

Medicine: any asshole thinks the antibiotic they were prescribed for a bug works for all bugs so they keep it and self-medicate. Or skin creams (that can go so horribly wrong btw). Or vitamins. Just read the fucking piece of paper in the packaging at least.

Printers: yeah i don't know how laser printing works in detail but i should know enough to not stick my finger in there causing myself 3rd degree burns. Or just learn how to stop the thing from printing to save yourself premature white hair

Video, audio, TV transmission (DVBT/DVBS), wireless technology (wow i have 100% wifi signal but i can't connect why is that), whatever

From a quick read online he sounds like an environmental nutjob with no regard for human life. Why is he in our discussion?

Of course it should be mandatory. Not necessarily to repair the engine, just know what you're using, if only for safety. Drivers control a 1ton box of metal and have actual responsibility for all passengers. They need to know how it works, at least to a point. How do your breaks work, how does the car start, what's safe to touch under the hood, how do you maintain your car, what to do if it breaks down in traffic, etc.

Treating everything like a black box leads to a dystopic future where everything around us is a mystery and we rely 100% on specialists for the most basic things. Accepting total loss of control and becoming out of touch with the surrounding world and how it works.

Let's not teach people gravity, electricity or chemistry. We have people for that.

It is not wrong to use a support network to get through the tough times in a marriage. You should indeed demonstrate and explain how things got fixed afterwards so people close to you don't get the wrong idea, but it's not that important. Gossipy relatives should be kept out of the loop in the first place.

So an addendum to your main point: do not discuss your internal marriage problems with people who have not proven to be trustworthy. Filter everyone, including your own immediate family.

And while I'm at it and you talking about rightful property, that baby is partly the man's cause you didn't make it all on your lonesome. So the man should have an amount of say on what happens to it (gasp).

If men could have babies in their own bodies they most definitely would. Trust me.

Who the fuck spoke about rightful property, what are you going on about? You really think anti-abortion people are so because they want to control a woman's body? For what? To get sex? Just get another woman. To humiliate the woman? Why humiliate the mother of your baby?

Nobody cares about controlling women any more, you gals are fucking your lives up just fine on your own with this nonsense. The goal nowadays for men who want children is to find a woman that is not nuts. You're not helping

It's all politics. They are enabling an atmosphere of acceptance of mental illness and we're gonna pay dearly for that. Then again, "we" is not the politicians or the corps pushing this, so what do they care? More surgeries, please, the coffers need to be filled!

This whole discussion is very interesting. It indicates fediblock drama is mostly that, drama. But we need to consider the number of users as you said of that 4.2%, and then active or just existing, and the shadow bans, etc. I will be more careful not to attribute fediblock too much importance from now on.

As for the mastodon - fediblock correlation, it feels like most big mastodon servers are using fediblock but I can't really say if that's true. I am still against it on principle, of course.

> I think most of the people on mastodon.social don't know or care about #fediblock

I believe the pertinent number is "people affected by fediblock", typically as you say via their admins, even without their knowledge. I must also add there is an extra parameter: alt accounts, tho not sure that a significant number of users actually have alts.

> we can say slurs and we got pushed out of their plantation.
Once you're the minority you're only pushing yourself out of the main core of the group. Saying slurs doesn't make you special, it's just a way to gatekeep and/or alienate people.

If corporate wanted to take over fedi, they'd do it within 2 months and you'd be "slurring" your way to oblivion with your friends, just like what happened to gab vs fedi.

My point is, you can claim fedi isn't "taken over" if you can talk on your island, which is fair enough. But most would define "taken over" by ratio of who's got the numbers.

If you consider masto+fediblock has the numbers, then I guess you're right, it's going to be more or less like now.

Is there any way to figure out the numbers?
Because it could indeed be possible - they've lost a lot of people since the last exodus from twitter
