So, at age 60, after 36 years teaching in NSW Public High Schools, I have decided to take 1 year of sabbatical leave.
Today I enrolled in a Diploma of Information Technology specializing in Networks and Cyber Security.
1 year to change my life. Wish me luck.

No worries. It's kind of a relief that they're finally coming after regular people's rights. Maybe the normies will finally wake up.

The current dominance of Meta is exactly what the old open source community driven hackers were warning us about. Combined with Twister they are destroying representative democracy

13.01.2025 01:42 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0This site is still "owned" by someone who is, almost certainly tracking and selling our data and has the ability to advance or silence users.
We are still serfs.
I long for the days of open-source and "information wants to be free" that was the hacker mantra from the 80s and 90s
We actually had online versions that were free and open. Usenet News was one. Kind of like reddit.
The issue is it became a source for porn and illegal download.
Also, wasn't as pretty as Facebook. But I remember a time in the 90s when I checked usent daily and had "friends" on there.
Download an NNTP client and you are good to go.
11.01.2025 05:44 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0What you are asking for was invented in 1986, is free and distributed and is called NNTP.
Used a LOT in the early days of the internet and then everyone "kinda" forgot about it.
Everyone thinks AI is somehow going to turn into SkyNet and blow up the world because it's evil.
But, I believe the scenario portrayed in John Carpenter's 1974 movie. Dark Star is far more likely.
Talking to bomb.

You have made it into a thing, to which the only possible relationship is a power relationship. And thus you have fatally impoverished your own reality.
Ursula Le Guin
If you deny any affinity with another person or kind of person, if you declare it to be wholly different from yourselfβas men have done to women, and class has done to class βyou may hate it, or deify it; but in either case you have denied its spiritual equality, and its human reality.
