You’re bringing in the idea of “fluffy” and “spiky”. And you think both have merit. Have been working with bridging this often hostile divide for more than 30 years in hundreds of campaigns on the ground and online. The best outcome you can hope for is “diversity of tactics/strategy” You’re also drawing attention to the…
Misunderstanding – Out reaching the #OMN #openweb projects.
I start to understand the misunderstanding, blocking many of the people outreaching the #OMN. It’s a DIY project there is the assumption that people will see the need and fill in the missing bits. The “missing bits” have a function, to be filled in otherwise we would be pushing clean non-messy #dotcons world view which…
Talking to the burocractic coop crew
A. I find it interesting, and revealing, that nobody here actually talked about what the thried was about Online governance – openwebgovernancebody – Gitea: Open Media Network 1 If you can look outside your world view… We are doing a funding proposal to do the simple well tested project/workflow (which we know dues not scale)…
Some questions answered on fediverse “governance”
An important word that needs some thought is “permissionless” The body is made up of three different, balanced groups: Stakeholders – the people who do the work, who run/mod the fediverse Users – the people who use the tools/services, who use the fediverse The Affiliate Stakeholders – the people who commit time to support the…
The geekproblem – humanity’s and science
Coding projects that come from the humanity’s general fail as they are not technically coherent and build out from abstract ideas without real relevance to lived humanity, they are too disconnected to become relevant to communertys of use. Coding from science tend to fail because they are inhuman, and are built for mashions. They serve…
outreaching ActivityPub to the EU – draft
This was an interesting process playing a role to do the document – outreaching ActivityPub to the EU https://pad.public.cat/p/ngi0-ec-activitypub-liaison-presentation-2021-04-19#/13 Good to get an outcome from this: #activertypub as a cross-platform standard for #dotcons who operate in EU funding to further this – we would need democratic structures in the #fedivers style to make this real…
We need working home hosting.
Think we currently have a pile of shit for home hosting tech. Might have to break my #nothingnew pledge as the is literally nothing normal people can use/do. Plan/idea/focus? Nothing is useable – have tried them all. Good to start from where we are we need to stop going round in circles and start to…
The “cloud” is just a big corporate run data centre that can and will burn down
You do realize that all our data is HORRIBLY centralized and thus could vanish at any moment, come the revolution/evolution/ #climatechaos tsunamis. Our end plan in the #OMN is that all the content is redundantly stored in the network in a #KISS way, so traditional backup is less important -when it goes wrong, and it…
What is the #OMN project for
The #OMN is about building #KISS bootem up trust based media networks for publishing and soughing content with enriched metadata flows. In the end you have a “stupidly simple semantic web of media object “cauldrons” and flows build up from a local level. What you/we do with this is up to the users/producers… this is…
hashtag storys #4opens
Q. While I agree with everything you wrote in that post, I don’t get how that illustrates the geekproblem. Is the #geekproblem the same as the #encryptionists? A. The #geekproblem is illustrated here http://hamishcampbell.com/index.php/2021/03/06/over-the-last-10-years-we-have-been-told-a-lie/ Q. In one post you wrote that the geek problem is replacing trust with control. That immediately communicated clearly to me.…
The #hashtags tell a storie
Dot for profit for few con for the rest – took over the #openweb during the #dotcom era. #stupidindividualism is our internal poison that we breed from the #deathcult #failbook will/has failed us as individuals and as a society. #openweb is a good view of what we had and what we won’t. #4opens is a…
Over complexity is fixed by trust and #KISS
Q. Still trying to fix permissions issue for peertube why is there always some piddly little issue (that will likely eventually have an easy fix) A. Over complexity is fixed by trust and #KISS the problems we face now are complexity built on top of complexity. This is largely pushed by ‘security’ which is a…
