I'm an old biddy, retired, interested in science, sci fi, humour, cute animal videos, real ale, good food all the usual stuff
Sadly of late I've become rather political as my Government seems intent on destroying my country & I hate politics
LGBTQ+ ally, atheist/humanist if you're religious that's OK
Religion is like a penis, it's OK to have one & be proud of it
But don't thrust it anywhere without an invite by someone old enough to understand what it is
Note | Don't put @ twitter.com in your post if you want me to see it |
Deletion | Toots die after 6 months unless I bookmark them so screenshot if you really want to keep my drivel for some unknown reason |
Career | 40 odd years in IT, Software Dev Eng, IT Manager, Self Employed IT Spod, Oh & spent a year as a security guard when the company I was IT manager in went bump |

Föderation EN Fr 06.09.2024 02:43:06 You know why twitter gets millions of views a day? Well on top of the normal user traffic, damn near every online news organisation includes links to tweets in articles Every time someone reads one of those articles, twitter gets a view If there are multiple links, twitter gets a view for each link The more views twitter gets, the more ad revenue it pulls in I realise advertiser's are fleeing twitter in droves, 'cos Nazis, but maybe we should ask online news sites not to fucking link to it |

Föderation EN Mo 08.04.2024 17:21:12 @FediTips Hi sorry to bother you Do you know the answer to this or do you know who I should ask If I use Tusky on my phone it tells me I've muted some instances If I look using a browser from my PC it tells me I've blocked the same instances Now if I look up, say, Potus I can see the account despite blocking threads.net Which makes me think that threads.net & all the others I thought I'd blocked are just muted So does blocking an instance actually block it so they can't see me or me them ? |
