I have ecured saved in kiwix so I can still view it when the website is down. My Spanish is really not that great but I do enjoy seeing the different perspectives.

I live in the US south and I can easily pick up radio Havana Cuba on shortwave most days and that's pretty cool too. I've even written into the station a few times

A street without ads?? There would have to be some really bad stuff going on for me to not appreciate the ever loving shit out of that

I have a good list on my kobo waiting for the opportunities to dig in, I get to spend some time almost every day.

I have a good bit of the basics, and when there's a decent bit of age on them they can get a little heavier... I'll take a break and read some parenti because my brain can digest that easily. But there's been PLENTY of "ah ha! MFr" moments in Marx's heavier stuff where something fell into place

Uh huh, hell no. You ain't trick fuckin me. I don't care if I'm not SUPPOSED to see the horrors until they're right up on me. My cheap ass monitor is at a non-ideal angle so I'm turning that crap up.

I was able to fix my account on a different instance because I was still logged in on a browser. Once you save the "enable 2fa" button press it's on, and I couldn't turn it off. I had to reload the page and it showed the set up 2fa button, but instead of it doing something when I clicked on it, it has the exact link that my password manager needed to generate the 2fa and my browser doesn't know what to do with it. I just copied the link and pasted it into my password manager where you usually scan a QR? It generates the codes correctly now and I was able to log in on other apps and devices.

As long as you have a browser that's logged into the instance, you can regain ability to log things in, just in my experience.

If I'm understanding correctly it's affecting all lemmy instances.

There's a few anarchists I follow on the kolektica instance, I've also been searching for a more leftist mastodon instance

I have horrible penmanship as a millennial, I was typing from around 6 on

I love pineapple on pizza, but this is hilarious

"what kind of damn name is Charles for a ca.... Oh. Yeah that's Charles right there"

Shut up, I don't have a gir shirt... You're making shit up

Well I'm not helping much, just lurking with a few comments. Hell yeah go us

I think that would be awesome, I'm still learning a lot and that could be helpful.

I do also believe that my understanding of communism and my place in it calls for a lot more interpersonal connections than I cultivate 🥴

I've been messing with bard a little seeing what questions it will answer and how those answers line up with what I've been learning from lately and how I've been fed a steady diet of propaganda in US schools... And it's easy to see from the questions I've asked that it SEEMS to have been trained on a good bit of factual info but clearly from the lens of "liberal democracy=good" even as far as acknowledging that many conflicts in my life, if asked about the situations, as I've come to understand them, that happened initially destabilizing certain areas, had "fear of communism" high in the list of reasons. Obviously it's a program trained on certain information, and with guardrails installed. If asked about how much devastation the US has caused related to fearing communism it will talk about that, but if you ask for example "why has the US supported fascists" I got a road block and it stopped answering lmao.

Obviously just anecdotal about me playing with an existing program, and I'd love to see one trained on a large variety of different leftist theory and writings. It would still need to be used with the broad understanding that in the end, it's just a program that takes input and processes it and spits some info out, and shouldn't be trusted more than pointing us in directions for more study.
