Seems like it could be useful to have a @situationist group to discuss situationist history, theory and practice, and applications in today's world. For those who aren't familiar with Guppe groups, you @mention the group actor above to post to the group, and follow it to receive those posts in your feed. See;

my fediversary is coming up.
Saturday, 17 June 2017 - Monday, 7 April 2025
Days: 2852 days
Years: 7 years, 9 months, 22 days.
gonna be 8 years continuously on the fedi in one way or another.
my story is kinda like floating shipwrecked for long stretches, and then swimming my way to safer waters further away from the centre.
i have self-hosted, or been close contacts with someone giving me refuge, ever since leaving @dirtycommo .
my greatest sadness i have lost so many people in the churning mix of the weird pattern of fedi instance instability.
my greatest joy is that i know those who have still survived actually can be trusted. and more. anyone who has sacrificed themselves for this place is now a mythical hacker hero.
this place means so, so much. you saved my life. you gave me money i needed but didn't ask for. you appeared out of nowhere, lurking for years, pleading with me not to do it. you never betrayed me. you showed me actual kindness. you transformed my life. i am going to live because of you.
i am who i am today because of you. i love the fedi unconditionally. i will take all the good and all the bad.
thank you,
blair vidak.
the way e-waste is collected at transfer stations (that I've been to) where they don't let people pick through and take stuff is _fine_ as long as the e-waste company is facilitating sufficient levels of re-use.
But I really think the local people should be able to pick through the local people's electronics. Especially kids. Free e-waste for children and I'm not joking!!
I grew up before e-waste was a thing and there were very often old computers, electronics and AV gear at the town dump. This gave me such a jumpstart to tinkering!! I still use some of the parts and cables I got back then including a tascam 4-track mixer.
maybe everything is fine and kids are getting their hands on plenty of old gear, who am I to say. I still think reuse should be as local as possible.
