Thanks for interviewing Jeff Gadway and asking really insightful questions about the Clicks Communicator. Hearing a company head describing their product in terms of how it should effectively meet the needs of a specific customer group was reassuring in the mindless hype train that is tech commentary in 2026. Integrity hits hard when everything else is obvious BS.

great video, i´m glad you emphasised that #endof10 doesn´t mean you have to buy a new PC. I would be interested to see if you could do something similar with installing lineage OS on old smarthphone. Could a 10 year-old flagship Android smartphone still be usable today with a flashed custom rom?

Simple test. listen to Immigrant song by Led Zeppelin and then Waterloo by ABBA. Case closed. It´s in the name - "Veronica Explains", she's describing Facts! it's not Veronica Opines or Veronica Ponders

I wish more people/platforms would understand that having comments open on online material is a PRIVILEGE the creator is extending to the audience. I wouldn't blame you if you just turned off public comments and restricted comment features to those people who support (with $$$) the work you do. Keep up the excellent work.

I would also recommend "Let This Radicalize You" by Kelly Hayes and Mariame Kaba. In fact, many books offered by @npub1tay…nfz2 are focused on effective organising to achieve goals of social change Kelly https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1922-let-this-radicalize-you

This is a heads up to the 6 people who follow me that Haymarket Books are offering 80% discounts on their ebooks. That means you can re-educate yourself for about 2 dollars a book. https://www.haymarketbooks.org/blogs/230-haymarket-ebooks-on-sale-for-2 Making the world less shit is a DIY project - but at least there are instructions available. #AntiFascist #immigration #anarchism

set up a book club with your colleagues, and the first book on the club's reading list is @npub16wc…ehf0 "Resisting AI - An Anti-fascist Approach to Artificial Intelligence". This does a very complete job of cataloging and explaining every aspect of AI that is explicitly harmful. If your institution has any claims to supporting DEI or sustainability, it is simply not compatible with active use of AI tools.
