White House, #US Department of Education & US Office of #Gun Violence #Prevention Triple Down on #Firearm Safe Storage (Town Hall #Video & Statements Included)
by Pat Ford — January 28, 2024

..."On January 25, the Biden Administration tripled down on promoting “Safe Storage of Firearms” with First Lady Jill Biden, US Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, & White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention Director Stef Feldman hosting a town hall, alongside of school principals at the White House, in order to “elevate the importance of safe firearms storage and emphasize the role that principals and education leaders can play in helping prevent gun violence.”

The effort is being waged on multiple fronts: In addition to the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, the Department of Justice, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), Department of Education, Department of Veteran Affairs, & Department of Justice will participate.

Below are two statements, from both the White House & Department of Education, providing detailed insights. The Town Hall Video is supplied, as well."...

TUTO to survive a breakdown.

Whatever the pod on which you are registered, it may happen that it is temporarily "down", independently of the podmin's will. Don't panic, here are some tricks to anticipate.

One : Register on a second pod (a "rescue" pod) ; as all the diaspora* pods don't go down at the same time (unless you have very bad karma), you will still be able to communicate.
The list of pods is here : **https://diaspora.fediverse.observer/list

Two : Keep a list of your contacts -> under your pseudo in the upper right corner, click on Contacts, position yourself on My contacts (not All contacts). Here, two solutions :
1- Take snapshots until the end of the list. Save them somewhere on your computer.
2- Open a word processor on your computer (Word, TextEdit...) ; go back to the contacts page, click on the page at the top of the list, keep the left mouse button pressed, and scroll down to the bottom of the list : this is a highlight. Release the mouse button, click with the right button, and in the window that should normally appear, choose "Copy". Then paste that (ctrl v or cmd v) into the word processor. Save it.
(not obvious the first time, but very efficient ; do some practice...).

Three : Remember to save your data at least once a year -> under your pseudo on the top right, click on Settings, scroll down to the bottom of the page, click on Export my data, and/or Photos (export the photos). This may take a little time, so choose a time slot that is a little quiet (avoid peak bandwidth hours).

Four : On the Feed page, in the left menu, there's a section called Make a donation -> don't pretend you didn't see it ; it doesn't solve the breakdowns, but remember that the podmins are volunteers and that they offer you a really great platform, right ?... Say thank you with a little support... 😉
