How to use AppImages on GNU+Linux
AppImage is a type of program on GNU+Linux which is self contained single file in the system.
Meaning, a single file contains the entire program and all required dependencies.
In this video I show how to install them on the system without any additional software.
Minetest mod: Rail Corridors + Treasures
Minetest Rail Corridors + Treasures
This mod basically adds mineshafts into the game. Similar to what is seen in the game Minecraft with it's mineshafts

lego pirates of the caribbean noclip
In this video I show you what the intro sequence to the lego pirates of the caribbean looks like when the camera is taken where it was not meant to go.
We saw that for example, Elizabeth (the girl) switched ships, then switched back to the original ship.
And the ship she switched to was none other than the ship that was burning and half sank.

ActivityPub (Fediverse) comparison to FriendToFriend network (Retroshare) — read description + visual graph
Fediverse with ActivityPub creates a sort of decentralized way of
Technologically Retroshare offers even more freedom for the users than the fediverse, because the activitypub thing is just an exchange protocol like email, users still need to choose their provider and communicate trough that, whereas on Retroshare the network fundamentally allows anyone to connect to anyone else directly or trough the other nodes in the friend-to-friend network.
To achieve a similar functionality of talking to anyone on mastodon servers, there could theoretically be ceveral big nodes that everyone can connect to, which would then serve as the middle nodes in the friend-to-friend network. But instead of them being a centralized server with it's own rules for the users to follow and which manages all the user content, it's just a node that passes data trough itself, nothing more. Even if one of those big nodes gets taken down, it doesn't do any harm, no one's back catalogue of content is erased or followers lost. Just connect to a new middle node and resume operation as usual, as if nothing happened. Because it is the user who is sharing the content, not the node in the middle. In a friend-to-friend network the node in the middle merely passes the information on, it is not responsible for managing the information at all in any way.
The only real difference between a fediverse server and any contemporary "big tech" platform, is the fact that anyone can create their own server instance, and they can exchange information like on email with other server instances. They are indeed in a way decentralized, but only from the point of view that they are interoperable, so anyone can create an instance, but those instances themselves are still centralized, any user who joins an instance is managed by that instance, therefore the user is still bound to a centralized server. Whereas Retroshare is what would be called a "distributed network" it is truly as decentralized as it gets. The advantage of a distributed network as compared to an activitypub style decentralized network is that there is no centralization at all whatsover. Each user themselves shares their own content, it is not done trough any server. Everyone who wants to see that content needs a way of connecting to the user sharing the content, this can be either achieved by connecting directly to the user who is sharing (being their friend), or trough other nodes on the network allowed by the friend-to-friend style peer-to-peer network.
Retroshare is technologically superior, it is also fully cencorship resistant, especially with the use of I2P alongside it. Not only is the reliability and freedom offered to the users far greater than that of ActivityPub and the fediverse, it is from difficult to nearly impossible to cencor content (it is possible to identify I2P users, it's just extremely unlikely, and often would be because of user error). Of course if you don't hide your identity and someone who is after you knows where you live Retroshare is not going to help you, but that's a given and applies to any other software also, obviously.
A step towards the ideal world as of now would look like if smartphone manufacturers preinstalled Retroshare and if every such device also came with I2P preinstalled and configured, it could be as easy as toggling a button in settings to enable the I2P functionality and start using software with it. How to exactly accomplish this ideal future scenario I have no clue of for now, but as long as the discussion keeps going perhaps at some point someone will.
