Windows 11 has a cool feature hidden in "device manager".

You can point it to a folder with drivers, without selecting a particular device, and without manually adding drivers 1 by 1, for each device. Just have Windows scan a whole folder, and it will add […]

Would you have any insight, on why mstdn.social and kokonect.link do not seem to communicate?

Would you, by chance, know why kokonect.link does not seem to connect to lgbtqia.space ?

I seem to have set this fun and silly poll for 30 days. Oops.

I voted "China" and the reason for this is twofold:

1) You do not want your country spying on you.

For example, if you lived in China, you should have voted either America or Russia, in my opinion. Because the country that can […]

The Middle East is frustrating too.

We should be nowhere near there. But our government wants oil and has fight for years against an alternative. We also seem to feel we need to be the world's police man.

I want the people of Israel to live happy, healthy, and safe lives, just as much as I […]

This election cycle was frustrating.

I knew Kamala Harris was going to lose on day 1. But I also knew, just how f*cked up Donald Trump was going to be.

We need better leadership and better people coming forward, just as much as better thinkers when voting.

That's a lot to take on all at once […]

Same line of thinking (minus the self-hosting).

I think @Kitty is an awesome administrator. Do you know how hard that is to find?

For example, I want freedom of speech, but I do not want hate speech.

That means, during the USA Election, I had the freedom to say, I thought Trump and Harris […]

Well fuck...
I mean I was considering after the elections if it's not a good idea to migrate to a non-US instance, but I decided it'd be overreaction at this point. And I love it here too much, it's a great place, with a great admin.

Sadly it seems it might be time for me to selfhost again […]

Goodnight, Neverland. 😴

I need to get some rest before work.

I think I am going to call out of work, tomorrow.

I'm kind of annoyed. Time is escaping me. This is the 3rd time, that I covered up the bird around 10:00 PM, sat on my computer, and suddenly it is 3:30-4:00 AM. Like, I honestly, do not know where the time went.

Either, I am exhausted and […]

@Kitty Sums up my mood nicely.

I just recalled, Reliable Sites (dot net), the hosting provider I kept suggesting to everyone, is also in Florida.

Current objective:

1) Find new Fedi overseas (outside, United States)

2) New Fedi must not be hosted by, Hertz

Are you in Florida, USA?

This new law may impact your ability to run a Fedi instance on the Fediverse.

To clarify, Kitty Dot Social is NOT shutting down, at this time.

There is, however, a general concern surrounding the legality give the new laws in Florida. The full post (please read it), outlines that concern.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure I can say the same for Peertube, which is the software running behind kitty.tube. The presence of the Trending page has me concerned there, as I am not sure what exactly goes into what is shown there (though I can check, it is open source, after all), what the legal […]

A bloodless Coup d'état happens more frequently for the same reason a violent Coup d'état does not.

Most people are not willing to risk their own to start one, anymore than they are to risk their own to stop one.

All a Coup d'état really is; is a group of individuals who know something should supposedly work differently, but they are going to ignore how it is meant to work and do something else instead

America is experiencing a Coup d'état right now.
