The fight against the destruction of surplus product and against hoarding in Brazil cannot be carried out through the state, but through consumer cooperatives, which affiliated with powerful federations, will be able to deliver to the market and finance production and regulate prices on a fair basis.

Donald Trump will be remembered as a uniquely unqualified and terrible President.
What was all this for? You destroyed whatever shred of credibility the U.S. retained with other nations. You demonstrated that Israel, in particular Benjamin Netanyahu, dictates U.S. foreign policy. Iran's nuclear program was not destroyed, and they will likely decide to ramp it up and build nuclear weapons.
Truly unhinged and disconnected from basic humanity.

Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.
We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.
There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.
Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.
Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.
Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.
Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the entire network.
Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. There are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.
We offer the following federated services:
Friendica.Eskimo.Com
Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.
Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com
Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s primary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.
Mastodon.Eskimo.Com
Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another instance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.
NextCloud.Eskimo.Com
Nextcloud If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.
Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com
Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. Instance is new as of April 6th, 2025.
Yacy.Eskimo.Com
Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl, but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.
Shell Accounts
A shell is a command line interface for an operating system. With most shell providers, a command line interface on one flavor of Linux or Unix is all you get. Eskimo North provides access to eight different popular Linux distributions and SunOS Unix. Eskimo North also full remote desktop capabilities using X2Go with sound, and also NX, VNC, and RPD without sound.
Account Types
We offer four different levels of shell accounts: Economy, Standard, Power, and Enterprise. Background tasks such as IRC bots, Game Servers, and the like are permitted on all account types except student. IRC servers are not permitted because of their tendency to draw denial of service attacks. Standard, Power, Enterprise, and Super-Max shells include a MySQL database allowing you to run a variety of LAMP stack based applications on your website and to use non-web based applications that require a database.
Web Hosting
Web hosting under our domain is provided with all shell accounts. You can host your own domains with virtual domains or web hosting packages.
Remote Desktop
Remote desktop capability is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers. Because our servers can be accessed anywhere in the world, this allows you to have a work environment you can access from anywhere in the world without risking losing your files to a laptop, tablet, or phone thief. We offer remote desktop capabilities on all of our shell servers except for the SunOS server. We support x2go, nx, vnc, and rdp protocols. X2go is the best choice as it provides extremely efficient compression and X round trip removal as well as sound.
Applications
Applications include Office Suites such as Libre Office and Caligra (which can read and write Microsoft Office file formats), Web and Program Development tools such as Bluefish Editor as well as many other editors, compilers, interpreters, scripting languages, debuggers, profilers, and online documentation.
E-mail
Our e-mail system offers unprecedented flexibility. You can access your mail via shell mail readers including graphical mailers like Thunderbird, or via Web mail, or via pop-3 and imap mail protocols, complete with TLS encryption. Our mail system includes Bayesian filtering with Spam Assassin which can be individually configured for your needs. Procmail allows you to sort and process mail automatically. Smartlist allows you to maintain mailing lists.
Security[color]
Access to all of our servers is available via strong encryption. The shell servers all support ssh access. All of the remote desktop protocols tunnel via ssh. We maintain all of our servers up to date keep with the latest patches. Backups are made weekly.
[color=darkblue]Eskimo North has been providing Unix timeshare services since 1985. We have been providing Linux timeshare, shell access, web hosting, e-mail, and Internet services since 1992. Please take a look at our services as they support our free Federated services including Friendica, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Nextcloud, Pixelfed, and Yacy Search.
We have a variety of Linux Servers with a variety of Linux Distributions and Desktop Environments. Linux servers in use here are of three basic lines, those derived from RedHat, such as Fedora, Centos, and Scientific Linux, and those derived from Debian such as Debian, Ubuntu, and Mint. Ubuntu is the most current and feature rich. Then there is Manjaro, derived from Arch Linux. Arch is more often broken because it is a real “do it yourself” Linux, an excellent learning platform, a good development platform, not a good production platform.
All of these servers are available if you have a shell account here. You can use them to learn various versions, decide which to install, and as one place you can develop applications for all versions. We install a wide variety of development tools on all of our publicly available servers.
Our servers listen to port 443 in addition to the standard ssh port of 22 to provide a means to connect from behind a firewall that blocks non-web access. You can also utilize Guacamole on our website (login public, password public).
Alma.Eskimo.Com
This server is running Alma 8. Alma Linux replaces Scientific Linux after it’s discontinuation. Presently we are running Alma 8 because Alma 9 does not support NIS out of the box although there are ways of hacking it in. It is unfortunate that Redhat chose to piss on the infrastructure so many organizations depend upon. This is why we tend to favor Debian derived flavors. None the less as Redhat derived software goes Alma is pretty solid.
Anduinos.Eskimo.Com
Anduinos is a Debian derived distribution that defaults to a Gnome Desktop themed to look like Windows 10. At present though this Desktop is not working over network connections, instead Mate and Gnome are presently available. I am working on some others.
Debian.Eskimo.Com
Debian Bullseye has a rich assortment of software installed, including hundreds of Games, a huge variety of Office Productivity software, many Educational and Scientific applications, a variety of Integrated Development Environments, and many programming languages. All of the documentation available online these applications is also loaded.
Fedora.Eskimo.Com
Fedora Rawhide can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate desktop. It has the most applications of any of the Redhat derived servers. I install just about everything I can get to work on this machine so it has a huge variety of applications installed.
Kali.Eskimo.Com
Kali is a special purpose shell server designed for penetration testing. It is primarily here to test our own internal security, and as a result, egress is extremely limited, however upon request, proof of IP space ownership, and permission of the owner and agreement to hold us harmless because it is possible some of these tests may be destructive, we will allow outbound for testing of other sites.
Manjaro.Eskimo.Com
Manjaro is a good choice for a Linux user who wants to just install and go. There is a pleasant user interface and a good choice of software in the Manjaro repositories. It is a less technical Linux than Ubuntu, you can do most things through graphical interfaces and the default xfce interface is extremely light in terms of memory footprint. Like most modern distros, a variety of Windows systems are available and we have Gnome, Mate, KDE, Xfce, LXDE, and LXQT installed.
Mint.Eskimo.Com
Mint is another recent addition to our shell servers. It is running Mint, although we have the Mate Desktop installed for graphical access. This is necessary because Unity and other compositing Desktops are incompatible with x2go and really work very roughly with VNC. If you like games, this is a good server to use and there are many installed. Mint is a derivative of Ubuntu which in turn is derived from Debian and this server thus follows the structure and layout of Debian and Ubuntu.
MxLinux.Eskimo.Com
MxLinux is an excellent choice for a computer with limited resources. Before the overhead of a Desktop is considered, MxLinux uses 200MB less RAM out of the box than does Ubuntu. If you’re not a fan of Poettering and Systemd, you’ll like this OS as it still uses a System-V init with Systemd shims to allow packages requiring systemd to function. You can also run systemd and in fact I am doing so because it boots faster. The default Desktop is LXDE which is also small and efficient. But if you like eye candy you can install any Desktop you like and as with other servers I will install all that I can get to work on this OS.
PopOS.Eskimo.Com
popOS is a modern appearing OS based upon Ubuntu, and not just indirectly, it actually utilizes Ubuntu’s repositories in addition to it’s own. The Desktops presently available on it are Gnome and Mate, though Gnome is a special edition known as Sparkle, and it does not operate properly with X2go. Presently X2go and ssh are the only two access methods. I am working on the others.
Rocky8.Eskimo.Com
Rocky8 is a RedHat derived operating system very similar to Centos before Centos was absorbed, and ruined, by Redhat. While Centos support, with the exception of Centos9 is going away on June 30th, 2024, and CentOS9 is not usable because of the deletion of NIS by RedRat which is necessary to our organization, Rocky8 will be supported for security updates through May of 2029, thus provides us a means of continuing to offer a Redhat based environment for another five years.
Ubuntu.Eskimo.Com
Ubuntu can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate Desktop. The native Unity desktop is a compositing desktop which is incompatible with x2go. This machine is equipped with many applications including a huge number of games, a rich assortment of development tools and computer programming languages, a huge assortment of Office productivity software, many scientific, electronic, and educational tools.
Zorin.Eskimo.Com
Zorin is a Ubuntu derived operating system. It combines the eye candy of some other Ubuntu flavors such as Mint, with the security awareness and up to date nature of Ubuntu providing a really superb server environment. This machine is our best equipped server. It has the full Ubuntu Studio Suite, a very large assortment of development tools, language packs for all supported languages, many games, both Libre and Caligra Office Suites, and much more. X2go is supported on this machine.
Crontab access, batch, and background jobs are allowed on all of our servers. Most have unrestricted outbound access with the exception of kali owing to high abuse potential for tools that exist on it.
One afternoon Yasodhara came home, her face filled with grief. She did not speak to anyone. A young child she had tended for more than a week had just died.Despite all her efforts, she could not rescue the child from death's grasp. Overcome with sadness, she sat in meditation while tears streamed down her cheeks. It was impossible to hold back her feelings. When Siddhartha returned from a meeting at court, she again burst into tears. Siddhartha held her in his arms and tried to console her.
"Gopa, tomorrow I will go with you to the funeral. Cry now, it will lessen the pain in your heart. Birth, old age, sickness, and death are heavy burdens each of us carries in this life. What has happened to the child could happen to any of us at any moment."
Yasodhara spoke between sobs, "Each day, I see how true all the things you have said are. My two hands are so small compared to the immensity of suffering. My heart is constantly filled with anxiety and sorrow. O husband, please show me how I can overcome the suffering in my heart."
Siddhartha embraced Yasodhara tightly in his arms. "My wife, I myself am seeking a path to overcome the suffering and anxiety in my own heart. I have seen into the situation of society and human beings but, despite all my efforts, I have not yet seen the way to liberation. Yet I feel sure that one day I will find a way for all of us. Gopa, please have faith in me."

I'm the dev that created the "Bookface" schemes for the Friendica "Frio" theme. I know I've been taking a long time to answer some people's questions and feedback. That's because for weeks I've only occasionally been able to log into my main account on friendica.world. Today it seems that server has become completely inaccessible. 😭
As that server is down I couldn't just migrate my account, so I've set up a new account here at dillyofapickle.com. If you were friended to me over there you'll need to send me a request here. But I also moved here because @Kevin has embraced my projects for his server and is running newer versions than most other servers I could find. And I kind of need to see it in action for real, not just on my dev server.
I guess for the foreseeable future updates to my Friendica projects will be posted from this account.

The new open source tool, built with Rust and simply called “Edit,” works on Windows, macOS, and—in a twist that would have seemed unlikely three decades ago—Linux.”
Yes, not only is it open source, but it also has a Linux binary file in its release. It feels a bit like the whole world just turned upside down.
The interesting part though is that text editing has not really changed that much. The features may have, but it is still plain old ASCII text, so this editor can still work fine over 30 years later.

I'm sure there were plenty of bad men he could have selected in the place of Judas, as I'm sure there are people He could have selected in the place of Peter.
You view it like a human interviewing a hiree.
>You seem like the perfect candidate for the job!
Sure, maybe Peter was? But that doesn't make him "special" either. He was a tool to perform a task. No one in the kingdom of heaven is greater than anyone else. All of Gods children are Saints. All are equal. This idea of "greatness" is an wholly human feature.

in reply to IRGC Commander Xenophon • • •Let me rephrase, because that didn't actually clarify. This is an English problem. Petros refers to a "rock or stone" something that an English speaker might say when referring to something that you could pick up. This is in contrast to something like bedrock, or a mountain, or even a large bolder, which you cannot.
The catholic view is that God was calling Peter the "bedrock" or foundation of His "church" which is not true.
Rose
in reply to IRGC Commander Xenophon • • •So in that passage when Christ refers to Peter being the rock on which the church is built, does the Greek use a different word than petros?

I understand it doesn't mean only Peter has it, but it sounds an awful lot like the rest of the disciples are also there and He doesn't reference them specifically
IRGC Commander Xenophon
in reply to d0c40r0 • • •He does reference them in verse 20. He doesn't reference them in verse 19 because the entire exchange is 3 fucking sentences and the bible isn't a transcript of entire conversations. He references Peter in verse 19 because he was specifically speaking to Peter.
The catholic view has to be along the lines of
>Jesus asks a question, 2 sentences later Peter gives the correct answer, so Jesus rewards Peter with the ultimate prize and not the other 11.
It's juvenile, but also contradictory to the entirety of the rest of scripture, and isn't even what the sentence is actually saying. As the AI image i posted says, Petros is not a foundation. Peter is Petros. He is a stone. He is one among many. He WAS tasked with proselytizing which perfectly tracts with the context of verse 19, but in no way should this be read to say Peter is the foundation (serious heresy against Jesus) or that he was the only one given this special power. This is an inference by men who had a vested interest in propagating their views.
d0c40r0
in reply to IRGC Commander Xenophon • • •Pretty sure God knew Peter would get it right before He even asked the question (considering He knew about His death, the denials, et cetera) and it was just to further prove the validity of Christ and His Church
Also it's not a heresy against Jesus to say that Peter is the foundation on which the new Church is to be built upon after Jesus is no longer physically on Earth -- foundation doesn't mean "guy you worship" it means "main support and what everything else has the ability to grow upon"

But God is calling Simon a stone.

Grammatically, this would make Jesus autistic/retarded. he knows he is Peter.

I have a pinned post about this. Jesus is the foundation. Calling Peter the foundation is heresy.

in reply to d0c40r0 • • •(Not entering the thread; I'm just popping in during a bathroom shid--here to share a something cool about the word 'cloud'. 🤍 🍻 🤍 )
-----
You know how we, in English, say a "flood" of people? In Koine Greek (both within and outside of scripture) a gatherings of people are sometimes called "clouds."
An example from scripture would be how Christ's second coming is described as being "with the clouds of heaven" in some verses and "with His tens of thousands" in another about the same event (within any version). (Some versions lean full on with the actual idea of physical clouds and say "on" the clouds but still say "with" His tens of thousands in the other verse, but the "on" is not there.)
Anyway, the idea ties with the Koine Greek way of saying that you and I are "in the air" (which is not to say in the 'ouranos', the 'heavens'), and this is the same as what we, in English, would call "on the earth." (Wave your arms. Feel the air? You are in the air, but not the "sky." So "in the air" people might gather into "clouds.")
That's the meaning too of the "prince of the authority of the *air* " in Ephesians 2:2--it's the "prince of the authority of *here* " in our way of speaking.
A cool thing to find. 🤷

Well yes, I actually do (because I probably am, at least smarter than a good 99.99% of them), but people refuse to accept that I have so much more information at my fingertips than they could dream of. Translations are based on THEIR understanding of language at the time they translated, and what they FELT fit the meaning the best, not on what the words ACTUALLY meant. Take John 3 where Jesus says you must be born from above, not born again, as just one simple example.

There's a difference between asking someone here to pray for or with you than there is asking a deceased individual to do that. Mary can't hear you. It's not her part to pray for you.

They are being disingenuous. It's jewish pilpul.

blah blah blah.
I grow tired of pseudo-intellectual nonsense, especially when it fails to understand the simple concepts the Bible is trying to convey. Luke 3:38 is there to explain what "son of God" means. Jesus IS God. He is not a separate entity, or a "part" of God. God is One, and Jesus is Him.

The entire point of Revelation, and Daniel, and Isaiah and Jeramiah etc where it talks about anything having to do with "end times" is that we still all got it wrong, so Jesus finally returns to save us for good. Jesus's first coming was about redeeming His chosen, not about fixing all of our problems.
From my point of view, you're saying something like

Meanwhile I can quote Jer 30:30/Heb 8:8 until I'm blue in the face and people will deny that the new covenant is only for the biological children of Israel. And that Israel was a living person, not a country, and not "jews."
